On Saturday, it will be my mariachi debut (check out the website for details, although I don't know exactly when we'll be on). I'm the only girl, so in one way it makes it easier - I don't have black pants or a white shirt, which caused some distress at first, but I can get away with black skirt and top, and I'll be borrowing a jacket. They're providing earrings and a rose for my hair, but I need to have my hair pulled back to the side. Obviously, the side that isn't the same side as the violin. Today I gave it a test run, and it's more user-friendly than I expected. Apart from a little pull to the side when I first fixed it, it feels just like my normal hairstyle. Hairpins are required to keep the not-long-enough bits looking neat, but it's still in place as I write after several hours.
It's hairstyle #2 - so many I could do, I just don't. The last new one was in February - I'm aiming to do more with my hair, I promise. I wish my nose wasn't so weird, too.
Tonight was another leftover lamb dinner - this time, pizza with roast lamb, sweet potato and pumpkin. Bonus - there's enough pizza dough in the freezer now for another pizza in the future.
I confess, I don't use 'strong' flour when doing bread dough. Maybe that's a New Thing for the future. Coriander was just at hand, so I sprinkled some on top - more for visual appeal... but the pot comes with nutritional know-how so I felt virtuous.
Today's photo:
I only went outside today to go to the gym, and to take out the rubbish. And to take this photo - raindrops on rose leaves.
