    Nope :) Cooking never held my interest Bella. However... devouring those things always interested me.

    Oh my week went from intersting to worse. As I type imagine a longer story with far more detail I won't bore you with and several swear words in for good fun.

    My boss laid me off today. I am not surprised. Trust me. But as he is telling me this in is own words he said the 2 checks I am sitting on that won't cash, will never cash. This past week that I worked? I am not getting paid for. He told me to just apply for unemployment and say I was laid off on the 7th. Of course because he had no intentions on paying me for this past week. Here is the best part. During this discussion he said he still needed help though. I am a smart girl but at that point I was lost. I asked him if he was out of his mind. He seriously was laying me off, but still expects me there Monday morning like a normal work day and wants me to work on unemployment. WOW! Is all I could say to him. I gave him some choice words let me tell you. I asked him if he realized the trouble I could get in doing that if we were caught. He told me to say I was just hanging out. Wow again. I nicely reminded him that when I go home and tell my husband I am unemployed that his store is now the last place I need to be. If I am there I had better be coming home with a "real" check or my hubby would turn him in so fast its not even funny. All this crap and bull and all of it I have struggled through. All the people I watched him dump on and I was that last man standing. Well at least the others got paid on there way out. I am in such frustrations and stress I can't even have a darn drink!

    It's like an empanada. The samosas (a food from India, primarily) I've eaten were deep-fried vegetarian patties filled with diced potatoes and peas, and served with green or mango chutney. The empanadas brought in to my library by a Colombian volunteer's Mexican wife were yummy deep-fried patties filled with spiced beef. Google the two food names for recipes and images.

    Will I see dead brown grass and asphalt by next weekend? We're missing a stray/feral cat. Hope we don't find his body as the snow melts.

    I second second Bear. This guys just disgusts me... ugh.

    As for samosas, we call them "Samousas" (Sa-moo-ssa-z) and they are pretty common here since more than half the Mauritian people are from India. They're good to eat and can be vegetarian or non-veg. One of those fried snacks which you often want to eat more when you tasted one :)

    But no, I don't know how to make them. I guess the hardest part is when it comes to fold the thin layer into a triangle.

    Hello Sunny! :) Yep, all well.

    Still over the career choosing issue. Just added hotel management to the list and removed it nearly as soon.

    Accounting, Civil engineering, Actuarial Science or Dentistry (ortho or aesthetic) are on the list.

    Why not pick what you enjoy? What in life do you look forward to doing or what hobbies do you enjoy or interests? Then go from there maybe.

    I don't know whether I'll like it or not, but my favourite subject area is Math, and I did some research from my last post, and I think I'll go with Actuarial Science.

    Well there you go. Something you enjoy and you are good at. Then it won't feel so much like a job. That's the key to a rewarding career.

    I have to run my little man wants to play some games on here. I will catch up with you all in a bit.
