Countdown to Virden, Manitoba

Only 9 more days until we leave for Virden for Jenn's grandparent's 60th Anniversary! I'll be able to knock off another province I've been to. It has been a fairly mundane month otherwise.

Jenn had a couple of interviews yesterday that went well. They both have their pros and cons but they are both small animal only so she is still keeping her eye out.

I had a 45 minute presentation I delivered this week to my proposal advisors that went well I think. Other than that I have been fairly busy in the lab trying to develop a new mucous stain, ewwwww. Actually it is interesting research. This is a picture I took of some gut cells that were stained. Mucopolysaccharides are stained red and nuclear material blue.

From the kitchen, I made hummus this past weekend and Jenn made onion rings. Both very delicious. Hummus is a little spicy because Jenn and I confused the chili powder and paprika. Must get around to labelling that bottle as that was not the first time that has happened.
