That is the size of the weeds in my yard.
and I have just put up a very undignified picture of new cat Nathaniel on face book.
I'm very sorry if she tipped off anyone about your cunningly concealed herd of cows.

Because books.
Relatedly, I'm editing an article about how a drug that's used primarily for nausea (it started as a drug for chemotherapy-related nausea) has been found to be beneficial in schizophrenia.
Those discoveries fascinate me. I always figure that must be how they come up with drugs like Latisse, the one advertised for eyelash growth.

In the vegetable vein, what's a good thing to do with kale? This should be pretty mild (mostly from my garden and picked small) - I'm thinking saute with garlic and olive oil? But I am open to suggestions.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I usually cook kale with some garlic and olive oil and a bit of vegetable broth to cook it down. Sometimes beans, too.

See, when my weeds get to be that size I pretend I meant to have them there. If I can look them up and call them by name, they're volunteers, not weeds.

what's a good thing to do with kale
I'm kinda curious myself. I got some with my first CSA box. Part of the reason I'm splitting a CSA share with amyth is so I'll try more and different local veggies. But now I'm confronted with various green things in my fridge and aside from the lettuce I'm somewhat at a loss.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I think I like -t's gardening method. Make friends and/or allies with indigenous plant life!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
at the tail end of mac's b'day party thingymabob. We were late for the intended movie, so we had to improvise and get tix to HtTYD in IMAX 3D instead of reg 3-D, then kill an hour. It took us a while to find a McDs, but once we did it was all smooth sailing. Only 2 of his friends were able to make it. Honestly am happy about that, 5 boys would have been tough to wrangle all by myself. We got ice cream afterwards and they are now playing until the parents show up.

Steam kale in a basket till tender, serve with mustard sauce (brown mustard, a dash of horseradish, water to your preferred consistency). Remove ribs of larger leaves if you find them tough or objectionable. Nom!
