Monday went by mercifully fast. I trained the new department members on a technique that they'd seen before but wanted to see again for a refresher -- it was funny, because 5 of them showed up all together at my work station around 9:45 this morning to request it, so how was I to refuse?
For lunch I had yet another pizza, this time with the amusing topping of corn, which seems to be fairly common here. It was okay, but I can't say that I think the corn added much. I also got to try a real treat because Brijesh brought in some fresh dates from his native Gujarat (the state north of Maharashtra) -- I'd never tasted a fresh date before, as the only ones I've seen in the US have been dried. They were very crispy/crunchy, a little firmer than an apple, with the familiar date flavor. Mmmm.
On the way home, I saw a traffic jam of the oncoming traffic because of a dog nonchalantly lying in the street, apparently unperturbed by the line of impatiently honking cars it was holding up.
