Bigger, Better, More Prettiful

I seem to be on some odd Star Trek referencing kick this week, I know not why, but since there was such a resounding (yeah, I consider more than 4 comments “resounding”) interest in it, here’s the answer:

As stated by Jientje, “Graag = love to.
For example : Wanna go to the restaurant with me? Yes, I’d LOVE TO!
What will you drink? I’d LOVE TO have some tea please?
Korie loves to eat chocolate!”

CB and MM translated it to “gladly,” which also works.

And when I said “ik hou niet van graag” I was trying to say “I don’t like graag”, as in, I don’t like that word. I still don’t, as it is hard for me to say…imagine swallowing your tongue…it kinda sounds like that to me.

Ah, en Mama, ik studeer elke dag Nederlands . Ik heb mijn blog voor engels. Ik mis engels.

And in other news, CB has a dinner with colleagues tonight in Leuven. His boss is cooking dinner for all of them. I, in the meantime, will be here alone for the first time in almost a month.
*cue piteous wailing*
This means first, I’m cooking for myself, meh. I read recently how you can hide veggies by pureeing them and putting them in sauce. We just got some yellow carrots and spinach from our organic, domestically grown vegetable order, so I plan on pureeing some of those and putting it in some tomato sauce over whole wheat spaghetti. With my new favorite non-meat, quorn!
I ♥ quorn!
It also means I will be afraid to go up and down the stairs because it’s dark and drafty and creepy in this house at night. More than once I’ve had the most terrifying feeling that something is going to slither out of the basement and grab my ankle on my way up the stairs…and this is when CB is home, let alone by myself. Thusly, the plan is to get my butt downstairs around 5, have dinner, shower and get back upstairs before 7, which is about when my dad gets home from work. He’s going to skype with me for a little bit and then the rest of the evening I’ll have for myself pretty much. We rented some DVDs last night, so I’ll watch one of those maybe, and CB gets home somewhere around 10 or 11 probably. That’s pretty much the evening summarized.

Now…on to Google Reader!
