Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

just got back from Palm Springs. The refreshing thing about going to Palm Springs in June is that the weather at home is nice and cool!

In other news, I have eaten a thousand things that are bad for me this weekend and burned the shit out of my mouth and it's not even Sunday yet.

Also, how miserable is a car ride with twin 3 year olds between LA and Idaho going to be?

you'd have to drive up to Northbrook, so I'm guessing that's a no.

Not so much, considering the lack of a car. But thanks!

I made kale chips with olive oil, vinegar, sea salt, and garlic. I eated them all.

Now I think I'm going to listen to some DJ Earworm mashups while I study, and my reward for doing so will be Doctor Who.

I just realized I have kale. How does one make these chips exactly?

Like this, more or less: [link] You can experiment with seasonings -- I usually like garlic powder.

Some recipes use lower heat, 250 or 300. I've usually made mine in a dehydrator, so I'm not sure what the temp should be. I also just found a recipe for some with sea salt and vinegar, which sounds really good and makes me think I should buy some kale and try it.

If Kale chips are as good as roasted cauliflower, I am going to have to try them!

I did not end up getting a CSA because I couldn't figure out how to get the box home (not really conducive to bus riding with a bum right side), but I did put in some tomato plants!

Also, I just realized how much I love cottage cheese I tend to avoid it, because I think of it as a diet food, and because my mom used to serve it with sugar free canned peaches and it was disgusting, but I really could eat it every day. I especially like it with olives on the side, or an Italian olive salad on top Nom, nom, nom.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

First world problems: the Saturday farmer`s market is during the same hours I teach. I figured I would get some cancellations and I would run over there then. I did have cancellations but they were all together at the end of the day. So instead of farmers market, I went home early.
 
So I am complaining about getting to knock off early. Hmm. Om reflection I`m perfectly happy with that. Particularly since I`m leaving in three days and wouldn`t be able to use the produce anyway.

Ooh, that's not far from my office, and I'm all about convenience when it comes to doctors and dentists. I'll create a Task to call them next week and see if they take my insurance. Thanks!
