I do not have bread. I have pie. rhubarb pie, that is all mine. Matt doesn't like it and even if he did he is in Portland for the next 10 days - so it would still be all mine
When you look back at this, in the three seconds it'll take you to turn to dust, I think you'll find the mistake was touching my stuff.

That's one of the things Michael Pollen stresses in his latest book: quality not quantity. If you use that mantra it generally helps you eat less and usually means you're supporting sustainability, etc.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
7.9 earthquake in China. Many dead.
Wallybee lived in Chengdu until she was 12.

Wallybee lived in Chengdu until she was 12.
Does she have family there, bt?
It's worrisome.

No, her (uni-educated) parents were both sent to Chengdu from Shanghai as part of a policy to develop the hinterland (and to keep possible bourgeois elements out of the way). Sent separately, they met there, which is kind of cool. All her family is back around Shanghai or Zhejiang province. But Wallybee called home anyway, given the shocks could be felt over most of the country.

Yeah, she's been clocking a lot of time on the Chinese news sites.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I was talking to one of my coworkers today who spent the summer after she got married in Chengdu -- not even anywhere near spending her childhood, and yet she was just about in shock over it. I'm sure it's a hundred times worse for Wallybee. Much love coming her way.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
I've used SparkPeople. I found the food tracking section to be well configured.
That's what I liked about it--I actually like it better than WeightWatchers, because it's almost as easy to use and gives you a lot more information to analyze your diet.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I was really upset about the news from China. 7.9, that's unfathomable to me. And yeah, what sarameg was saying about Burma too. So scary.
