Ice Skating and Kites

On Saturday I had a busy day, as I had promised to cook for my girlfriend and her family...so I whipped up an easy dish of three-bean chili. It was well-received (I think), and they asked me what my next dish is going to be! So at least they think I can cook. You can see it here.



We also went ice skating on Saturday at an indoor rink. The ice wasn't too great, but it was fun skating...it's probably been three or four years since the last time I skated, so it took awhile to remember how. I had one semi-fall, but nothing too bad.



Sunday, we went to a kite event! So I've never really flown a kite before (once or twice before in my life), so it was interesting. We got some good tips from one of the organizers, and we managed to get the kite pretty high, one time each (probably 100-150 m). BUT, both times, we spent probably an hour undoing knots in the string afterwards...so more time with knots than flying kites! We even saw SpongeBob flying over the moon (no, this was not our kite).
