G is currently at school. Hurray! She's in the afternoon section which goes from 1:30-4:30. I hope she's having a good day... The drop off went smoothly and she looked really sweet in her little uniform. I got a good vibe from the English speaking teacher and the Mandarin speaking teacher seemed very friendly with the kids but I didn't talk with her. We'll get her signed up for the bus later this week so she will begin to ride the bus next Monday. The bus is like a hotel van or an old folks home van. Smaller, since it's not American-over-sized, but the equivalent. We live fairly close to the school so it'll be a 5 minute ride for her. And there is a bus mother. Sweet deal.

I made bread for the first time here yesterday since we got our shipment delivered. Wow it makes my kitchen hot when we cook. You should see how fast dough rises around here! Like 3x as fast as in Oregon. It's crazy. And I dare say it's probably my best effort yet. We made pizza crust with the dough for dinner last night and I baked a loaf of bread this morning. Delicious. I think it has a little to do with the climate and a little to do with the crazy good British flour I bought.

It has been extremely humid the past few days. Like exceptionally humid. Our dehumidifier filled up in the middle of the night last night and when we woke up this morning it read that we were at 80% humidity in the house. 50% is comfortable in a normal place. We aim for low 60's in our apartment. 80% is down right rainforest. Our windows were all fogged up and the tile in the bathroom had visible condensation on it. Gross.
