I got confirmation today that the ESRC have received my application. Now I have to do that scary 3 month long waiting game thing not having any clue at all what's happening (other than the fact that I have only 3 months left at work and I'm also selling my home). Aargh. I must confess to getting a bit tearful about it tonight - partly the scariness of it all, and mostly because I'm doing it all alone. I feel very alone right now - yes I know God's with me and my family and friends love me and all the rest of it, but all of these things are so huge a good snog would really help me deal with it all better. Sigh.
New food of the day was minestrone soup. I had my doubts yesterday when I was cooking it as the passata I used quickly turned into a nuclear glow-in-the-dark red, but it calmed down considerably on reheating and the soup ended up tasting really pretty good. Not sure I'd make it for a dinner party (unlike the butternut squash and sweet potato one which I have every intention of inflicting on others!) but it's fine for reheating in the work microwave.
