cute Clarissa

On Friday I grocery shopped at Target, Sprouts and Trader Joe’s and then came home and cooked some broccoli cheddar soup for both us and our neighbor who has to have an MRI this week. I also made beet and cumin latkes and ginger carrot latkes, and I prepped some chicken for chicken tikka masala. I also went to book club and spent some happy hours chatting with my sweet neighbors.

Clarissa has also started saying “Peese!” for “please!” and, occasionally, “Gagu!” for “thank you!” She actually doesn’t need to speak much because when she wants anything she just brings it to us and makes urgent grunts, and if we don’t open and deliver whatever package she wants opened, she screams and throws herself on the ground. So basically she’s trained us so well that for the most part, she doesn’t need to talk.

I am back blogging while sick and don’t remember anything else from this day except for what the pictures tell me happened.

 

Clarissa was a doll and helped me unload the dishwasher. This is her favorite chore.
Also Clarissa loves to play the piano.
