Our air conditioner got fixed on Friday. It is so wonderful to finally be cool again! If I ever take air-conditioning for granted again in my life, I hope I remember last week and how hard it is to live without it.
Yesterday I went to Grandma's house and she taught me how to cook green beans. She makes them with onions and sugar and they are the best green beans on the planet. I made a meal out of them and licked the bowl and everything. Yum. Grandma said that the Cajun name for the juice that's leftover after you cook vegetables is "pot likker" (she even spelt it for me) and that Cajuns eat it on bread until it's gone. I haven't tried making the green beans myself yet, but I'm sure that when I do, they won't be as good as Grandma's. She's got the magic touch.
I had a dream the other night about Marlene and Chinese Sara. They had come to visit me here in Louisiana, and I was taking them places and showing them around. It made me kind of sad when I woke up. I like to think that they had dreams that I was visiting them in Hamburg and Beijing and they were showing me around.
