Also, Cheerio Boy in action.

Okay that's very cute, of course, but the one with him playing ball and laughing just totally made my morning. I had to add it as a favorite so I can go back and look (really, listen to it) when I'm feeling blue.

Does Serious Eats have a Buffista guest blogger?

breaking work stuff is less immediately life altering than lacking A/C.

Noah playing ball is super fun. He really likes it!

I think I'm walking to work this AM even though it's supposed to be obscenely hot today.

I'm stoked because I just picked up a coodinatorship of a PD series in the fall. They are doing one at my school, which I am not doing, and one at a very close to me local high school, which I think I will be doing. So good because it pays super well. This is the upside of having a job back in the classroom, I can go back to consulting/PD work.

The coffee better kick in soon or there's gonna be trouble.

I think it would be hard to find women's shoes in the wing tip pattern-- but for men it is really easy

I feel like my searches for "spectators" have come up with single-color shoes, so maybe it's possible!

All this week, Firefox has stopped holding the log-ins for places (except here) where I'm normally always logged in. I feel like it's a conspiracy to have be upgrade to the new Firefox.

I am having a super hard time getting motivated. It's been like this all week. So far, I've revised a memo and updated my technophobic co-worker's iPod. (He's not enough of a technophobe to not own an iPod, but he's afraid of ripping CDs and managing iTues.) The upside, I now have Kind of Blue on my iPod. I haven't listened to it in years, since I have only ever had it on cassette.

I am Sue wrt work motivation. I have opened a new Orange Savings account to split childcare from regular savings, paid some bills online, shifted some money around in checking/bank savings, worked on my 101 in 1001 list for the week, wrote up some to-dos for work, and caught up here and LJ.

I really want to go for a mid-morningn snack and coffee, but my boss just walked out and asked me not to leave my desk while he was out.

The muffuletta is the least malleable of local culinary staples. Unlike the city's other iconic sandwich, the po-boy, a genre as much as a dish, the muffuletta offers few opportunities for artistic license. Seafood "muffulettas" are muffulettas in name only, and the vegetarian version I've eaten several times at Surrey's Cafe & Juice Bar is good but, well, vegetarian.

A traditional muffuletta is built from thin-sliced meats -- ham, Genoa salami, mortadella -- for which you will not find ready substitutes in the sea or garden. And once you enjoy these items in the company of provolone (often accompanied by Swiss) and the crucial layer of oily olive salad found between halves of circular, sesame seed-freckled muffuletta bread, the thought of fussing with the formula does not leap to mind.

Crucial layer of oily olive salad. ijs.

Now I want a muffuletta.

Also I want a Kerffuffuletta Bunny.
