I started weapons class today. It's from 9-10AM. It was maybe 50 degrees with 25-35mph winds. It wasn't the most pleasant hour of my life.

And once again I'm reminded how utterly uncoordinated I am.

Our society frustrates me. We're supposed to get all this baby stuff, which you use for a few months, or maybe a few years at best, and then you're supposed to hold onto it until you're sure you're done having kids, along with all their outgrown clothing for hand-me-downs and so forth.

I want to get rid of all my baby stuff. I want to pass it on to someone who needs it and will use it instead of having it sit around in storage for an indeterminate number of years. But I don't want to have to buy it when/if I do need it again.

I think perhaps I'll try to organize a clothing exchange.

Made palak paneer tonight from this recipe, with coconut milk and a touch of tofutti fake sour cream in place of the yogurt/heavy cream, and tofu marinated in soy sauce and fried in place of the paneer (a very mild Indian cheese).

silkensteel and I are going nuts over it, but no one else particularly likes spinach. Ah well.

The tofu works absolutely perfectly in place of the paneer. I'm not sure the frying was necessary, and I'll try skipping it next time, since it was a pain and adds fat and stuff.
