So, grape puree is not such a great idea either. . .

Yeah, what can you do with concord grape puree? We have about a litre of it in the freezer. I think I’m going to add it to some apple puree to make “grape leather” (we’ve had relatively good success with apple/berry leather) but nonetheless the grapes have been an interesting adventure.

Life, on the other hand, has not been that interesting. I’ve spent most of the past two weeks working on those PhD scholarship applications. It’s difficult to talk about what I plan on spending the next four years of my life doing when I don’t even have this degree finished yet. I’m not even sure I want to do a PhD. However, I am spitefully trying to prove those naysayers wrong by getting ridiculous amounts of funding and keeping my options open for next year. I handed the applications in today, now I just have to wait until May to hear the results. Seriously. May.

Tom and I also struggled through a sugar/sweetener-free week last week for a little immune and mental boost. However, the spectre of public transit prevailed and I ended up with a head cold. I’m feeling better now, just in time to get on the germ and infection party bus (otherwise known as an airplane) to . . .

Go home for a week!

That’s right, we’ve barely settled back into Toronto life and we are heading back. Although I’ll still have tons of work to do it’s a great way to break up the fall. I can’t wait!
