True Grit

Good expletive movie. Spielberg produced, Coen brothers written and directed, starring Jeff Bridges. Holy expletive it keeps you interested.
One of my New Year's resolutions was to cut down on the profanity. It's being applied more effectively in print than elsewhere. My other resolution was to be aware of beauty around me every day. That one has been pretty easy to stick to. Some of today's beauty included with this post.

Cuisine

Crispy apricot pork cutlets with baby broccoli with orange sauce was tonight's kitchen challenge. I'm getting pretty good at the cooking stuff. Now have three cookbooks to draw from.
I was planning on skiing tomorrow but there hasn't been any snowfall in a while so the runs will be machine groomed instead of powder. I think I'll wait. You get a little spoiled for conditions when you live at the base of the mountain.

Day 5

I got to ski again today. The snow was very, very deep and light powder. I gave a little 'Oh, my, God,' at one point as I felt the powder coming up over my thighs. It's exhausting though. All that snow. You know? All that deep, fluffy, light powder can just be soooo tiring. Starting to get some legs for it finally.

Wednesday

I went on a little road trip today.
