Ben and I have befriended the local Indian market. We love going into the store and imagining ourselves in India. Friday night for date night we bought a bottle of Chicken Masala paste to make the curry. We also bought a 10 lb. container of Basmati rice. We felt so authentic. We got a premade package of Naan bread that just had to be baked for 1 minute in the oven. Ben picked out a new suprise for our Indian cuisine- Pappadums- which are so fun to deep fry. They look like flat round chips, but then you put them in oil and they expand and grow into crunchy goodness.
The other exciting part about our friday date night is we were wearing our school shirts. Mine is a red shirt- the Spence Stallians, and Ben's is blue- the Aldine Sr. High Mustangs. On fridays we get to wear our shirts, jeans and tennis shoes to work! Fridays are wonderful!!! Usually Ben wears a shirt and tie every day and I wear dress pants/slacks with a nice shirt. The district we work for is very formal. We are loving teaching!!! I am loving my job and all the little suprises that occur daily when you are around over a thousand k-4 graders.
