The preserved plums, in particular, are almost too delicious to bear - the moist, sticky flesh, the tart, tangy combination of sweet/sour - ngah.
Do you get the plain ones or the ones with the powdery spice on? We call those ones homoys and they've been one of my favourite treats since I was knee high to a grasshopper. Mmm, homoys.
Plain, this time. I'll get the powdered ones next time, eh?
Me: Yeah, I'm on that diet, too. The "I Will Eat Whatever I Need to Quell The Panic About Finishing The House and Moving" diet.
DH (popping a cookie in his mouth) Yeah, that's the one.
Oh! I know that one!
Had a lovely weekend- sj and TCG came over for dinner on Saturday and then yesterday, our plans for family visitation in CT fell through, leaving us with a lazy day of tv watching (me), brewing beer (Tom), making mac & cheese, and chilling out.

We had a great time! You're great cooks and we really appreciate the fresh herbs garden and the bottle of homemade beer.
Ginger, once I call my landlord, he comes about every 6 weeks to replace the filter. He's pretty good about it. And he buys me the hypo-allergenic filters, which is nice.
huh, I change the filters every 3 months ( or make DH do it). But I did turn our heat on without changing the filters. But then I have less problems with Asthma in the winter than I do the spring - fall.
Stephanie, I completely missed your Ellie concern yesterday with the skipping. Glad to see she's feeling better.
Susan! Awesome!
I wish we could have a buffista knitting/crocheting/sewing circle. None of my friends here do any of that. I have a dress I have been crocheting off and on forever, and it would help motivate me if I could meet up with other people working on projects too.
Yes, Budapest! Fay, did you go by yourself? I'll be staying here [link]
Why the Budapest? Where's the original post or what's the scoop?
Gronk.
Am at work, but headache is still playing hide and seek. Didn't sleep worth a darn.
Budapest? I didn't think I had scanned, and yet I missed that one.
It's just somewhere I've always wanted to go. Layers and layers of history...Europe without being typical European vacation...former communist country. I just find Eastern Europe really interesting, and Budapest was the first place I wanted to see.
