Short, But Sweet.

This weekend was a short one (we worked Saturday), but a good one. Last night we had drinks at Shana's (who lives about a 2 rupee autorickshaw ride away from our hotel) and she served GUACAMOLE. I've never been so excited to see avocados before in my life. After sushi, that's probably the second thing I miss most.

Today I mostly relaxed, read (just finished THE INVISIBLES, currently WHITE TEETH.), got a facial (a whopping $35 here), hung out by the pool with Traci (she [sadly] leaves tonight), went to the gym (if they play the mix CD that has "Who Let The Dogs Out" at full blast one more time, I think I might cry), bought a Bobby Darin album on iTunes, and then went to dinner with Ellen, Traci, Rocky, Ali, Gaurev, and Sabina at a place called Basilico...now one of my favorite restaurants in Mumbai. Shrimp and olive skewers, sweet potato soup, lamb periperi, mint iced tea, and a plethora of desserts, my favorite being the gooey chocolate cake. Oh, and they give you an umbrella with your check to celebrate the beginning of monsoon season.

I also bought a loaf of fresh whole wheat bread for sandwiches this week. Mmmmm.

Happy Father's Day Pop!
