there's something wrong with my toast

rhyllpleasant night last night. i vaguely tried to cook a greek easter dinner - lamb (ah, celebrating the birth of new life by eating it), tsoureki, dyed eggs, greek salad, plus some easter-red soup.
i made the tsoureki the night before last - i'd forgotten how much work it was! quite a while spent with my hand very firmly stuck in the dough, attempting to knead it into something that looked a little more like what it was supposed to. in the end it actually turned out ok - not as good as giagia's, but definitely good enough that i'll enjoy having it for breakfast for the next few days. tsoureki with butter and coffee has to be about my favourite breakfast.
it's weird, but a combination of easter and reading sara's entry makes me feel so sad about my family. because i love them all very much and yet it always feels like i don't have enough to give them. i never seem to be able to adequately show any of them how much they mean to me and how much i value them. and it's so hard to talk to giagia and papou a lot of the time, or even to my parents and brother.
i guess part it of is just that right now, i don't feel much like talking to anyone about anything. i feel like wandering around doing my own quiet thing - working on uni stuff, doing origami, cooking, whatever. not necessarily away from people, but without too much interaction.
which may or may not be healthy. i will consider outside advice.
