good news, bad news.

good news: i can make yummy, flaky pastry! i baked a pear galette this morning. it was very yummy. 🙂 don’t you wish you were in my french class too? then i would have brought some for you too! 🙂

bad news: a girl i used to take piano with (she’s four years older than me) has a brother who, it turns out, was on the plane that crashed in pennsylvania. he was one of the people who intended to ‘do something’ about the hijacking; i guess that’s the only comfort. i didn’t know him personally, but i guess this is the closest connection i have with what happened. i don’t know which would be worse, knowing someone who was on one of the planes, or knowing someone who was in one of the towers… i guess if anyone knows people who were on both, that would be the worst…
