Speaking of pics, some of ours from the trip so far:
Nifty pic of the concourse between the art museums: [link]
The kids with the Capitol in the background, Nate looking kind of Nixonish and scaring me: [link]
Young Simon: So... how'd the Independents cut us off? Young River: They were using dinosaurs.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Recipe please?
Salmon was just fillets done on the grill the CI way (in little foil boats so they don't stick to the grill - a pat of butter on top, little salt & pepper, cover the grill and they cook in about 8 minutes)
The salsa is:
- 1 bulb fennel, in 1" slices
- 1 vidalia onion, same
- 3-4 tomatoes, halved
For all these, season & brush with EVOO before grilling until nicely charred and softened.
When done, chop & dress with zest & juice of 1 lemon, 1 tbsp fresh chopped dill, more salt & pepper if needed. If your grill is NOT four flights of stairs away from your kitchen, you can chop them in the food processor for a more salsa-like texture.)
I also made some couscous to soak up the extra juices. It was just about a perfect outdoor meal.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wow. I'm researching ministries of health of Caribbean countries for my sister, and I just hit up Grenada. Now, at least the page is there, unlike Barbados, whose is missing, but it's rife with grammatical errors. "Devine creator" indeed. "Socail security." Ouch. "Devine creator" is in that section because apparently ecclesiastical services fall under the aegis of the Ministry of Health. Interesting intersection.
I think I need a break.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Barb, the pictures are marked private.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
shopping went well. two bags of stuff.
then yoga class - I use to go to this class pretty regularly, like 2 years ago. It is a gentle class and it is awesome. Ran into an old neighbor, like 6 years ago neighbor. crazy. I may need to rearrange my life to make that class a weekly thing.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Afternoon party at a neighbor's has turned into an impromptu playdate. Which means kids are happy and I am finally checking up on b.org.

Went to the Colorado Ren Fair today and was actually disappointed. I remember much more improv and "street characters". K-Bug did get the heckling jester with a tomato to the head (yeah softball skills). But overall, just wasn't as fun as I remember it being in the past.

How failed, beth? Unless the rice is hard or is extra mooshey, failed rice pudding probably still tastes okay.
Ryan Reynolds to play Green Lantern. Somehow, I can't quite see that. I've never seen Reynolds do anything non-flip, and GL's not overly flip.
Then again, the other project it lists for him in that article sounds straight.
