Saw Tosca last night, in the very very back row, and it was wonderful. Victoria! chills. I hadnt ever seen it, though the arias were familiar, as I like to listen to Voices of Puccini, and Puccini's Heroins, while i bake. which i precisely what i am doing this morning. i am definetly going to the lyric again, next for Madame Butterfly i think. while we went in my friend joked that we would be the youngest people in the audience, he expected everyone to be like antique teacups, white and frail and expensive. but i saw numerous colors of hair beyond white, including pink and neon red. the people were really interesting and of all sorts. it was fun. and now i am baking muffins to take to an old-fashioned picnic later today. i hope they are delicious. here's the recipe:
brown sugar oat flax cranberry muffins:
1 cup old-fashioned oats
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt

3/4 cup (soy)milk
1/4 cup oil
1 tsp vanilla
good sprinkling of ground flax
couple handfulls of dried cranberries
