Journal entry for 31st January 2008

What I cooked for dinner: Karela (bittergourd) and french omlette(with beans tomatoes and spinach) with rice and dal.

Today morning was spent in the company of about 30 other Indians celebrating Saraswati Puja. That was followed by a lavish(by grad student standards) lunch cooked by my labmates and various other friends. It felt almost like back home and was fun.
The weather turned out to be treacherous. The morning started at -16 deg C and by a late afternoon it was close to -2. The melting ice lead to slippery roads and I narrowly escaped landing on my back more than once. Scarier were the icicles hanging from every nook and corner (see picture).

With not many assignments lined up for next week, I am going to enjoy the rest of the weekend.
