The best way to describe how I felt about today was,
I didn't want to be anywhere else.
I wouldn't even trade it for a beach and a mojito ... and it's raining, hailing, and chilly here.
Earlier today I taught another lesson on pronunciation.
The professor who is hiring me because he can't speak perfect english cracks me up.
Seriously if you are living in a foreign country - teach english.
You may develop the worlds best self esteem.
They both hang on every word.
I feel like a genius.
"oooo ... so that's how it is said!"
i'm all, why yes, that is how it is said.
i know something internet. i really do.
and that something is how to pronounce "think" and "thought"
...
Then I rode off on my bike and it started to pour buckets.
I stopped, had lunch and hot tea to warm up, until it passed.
then off to the market we went.
where we found the prettiest heirloom tomatoes that will be devoured tonight (:
So it was a good day.
{sorry for the diary style post. but I wanted to record it}
annnnd of course I took some photos!
in love with this paint job. so fun.
free zucchini ... don't mind if i do.
...
Hope you're all having a sweet day, wherever you may be.
come rain or shine.

I gotta admit....It's often hard to read your blog without getting insanely jealous. ;-)
ReplyDeleteDiary style posts are my FAVORITE -- keep it up pretty and SMART lady!
ReplyDeleteahahahaha, i love that your job is making you smile & feel good about yourself :)

Hey Sarah, I just read your guest post on Kit's blog and wandered my way over here. Those flowers are gorgeous!
ReplyDeletei love zucchini! gratis zucchini i love even more.
ReplyDeleteobsessed with tomatoes lately! love that you're loving life!
ReplyDeletethose tomatoes looks mighty tasty!!
ReplyDeleteLove that you're teaching English. That's what I used to do in Brazil. Can't do that now though...
ReplyDeleteI agree with a lady from above said... it's hard reading your blog and not getting jealous! When you stop by one day in Cali, I'll hire you to teach me how to take such great pics, how about that? :)
I love the pictures of the fruit here... your day sounds so enjoyable! I'm glad you're loving it :)
ReplyDeleteThat picture of the rain is SO gorgeous, what a beautiful place!
ReplyDeleteI loved this post. :) You crack me up. And, of course, I always say, "Gorgeous photographs!"
ReplyDeleteI agree with the first commenter....insanely jealous is just going to happen when someone reads your blog, but you make up for that fact with being the sweetest person ever ;)
ReplyDeleteflowers and food....what could be better??
ReplyDeleteI taught English before, too, Sarah. It definitely is a hilarious experience. Mine was in Thailand for a bit. The kids are boisterous and the language barrier ends up being completely irrelevant once you get comfortable with your class. Amazing experience :)
