The local boy scouts put fliers on all the doors that they will be coming around later this week to collect food for a local food bank. I am conflicted. On one hand, I greatly support giving food to those that need it. On the other hand, I can't in good conscience support the boy scouts.

I guess the real solution would be for me to bring the food or make a donation directly to the food bank. Then everyone wins! (Except boy scouts who don't deserve to win.)
This morning I achieved exercise. My wii fit instructor changed her haircut. I am not ok with that. Fictional people should not have outside lives!!!! This is like that time she was late and her hair was messy or the day she took the day off and the guy covered for her. NOT OK!

Anyway, took a shower after that, which was very badly needed. Had to shampoo twice, my hair was so disgusting.

Then I went to the library. They finally had Pebble in the Sky back on the shelves so I grabbed it before it disappeared again. And I found the comic book section! Of course I had read most of it already. Figures, right?

On the way back to my car, two guys who had been hanging around outside called me over and explained that they were students and doing a small experiment on social perceptions. They asked me what I first thought about them before they called me over.

They were dressed like teenage boys trying to look tough (baggy jeans and all that), so I told them they looked like a group of teenage boys with too much time on their hands which made me nervous because people with too much time cause trouble. But I also added that once they spoke to me so politely, I perceived them in a much more positive light.

They took lots of notes and thanked me. It was all very strange.

After that, I went to the food store and bought lots and lots of veggies to make stir fry. I also needed cooking sherry, but couldn't reach it on the top shelf. I had to wait until someone else came down the aisle so I could embarrassedly ask for their help.

The stir fry ended up pretty good. I served it with quinoa, which complimented it all nicely. I tried to take pictures but they were all blurry. It was sad. At least I got to enjoy the taste. I topped it with this sauce, which was pretty tasty, but slightly too salty. I would make it again, but maybe cut the soy sauce in half. Ben enjoyed it all so much he went back for seconds. Yay for culinary victory!
