Bombay mango, East indian, Julie, mostly, for the adults. Stringies and commons for the kids.

Otaheite apples are pear-shaped red-skinned white fleshed perfumed taste fruit. Very refreshing.

There comes a point at the night where the keyboard becomes much harder to use, and it dictates what I have to say.

I bought clementines tonight

I eat about 3 at a time

thirding recommendation for morningstar spicy black bean burgers. do not be fooled by gardenburger black bean burgers, they are bland and overly starchy. i never liked boca but then i don't like beef...so the "meat-like" stuff doesn't appear. TJ's indian masala burgers are delicious but not at all like a burger- more of a delightfully junky spiced patty.

I hear tell from thems that do like meat-like veggie burgers that the boca grillers are top notch.

I just tried on the clothes I bought today. Only one thing is a little tight. I thought it was Talbot dominated, but there were only 3 Talbot things: 2 dresses with matching jackets and then a shirt. The rest: 3 piece silk suit, Anne Klein pant suit, polka-dot camisole with matching button up jacket/shirt, summer full skirt with tags still on, drapey cardigan, multi-colored striped mid-weight coat that I think is homemade, an argyle cardigan, Land's End long summer cotton dress, and a heavy Land's End zipper front cardigan. $65 total. seriously, none stained, none torn, none missing buttons.

My new HDTV arrived. I assembled it, and I just watched an .avi file from a USB flash drive. I'm finally living in the future.

At last - I have untangled my extremely tangled hank of yarn. Now to find that pesky pattern to start actually knitting it.

Wow! That`s an awesome haul, msbelle!
 
Hee, sumi, congrats. I know what that`s like. One time I spent an entire plane ride untangling. My seatmates were much bemused by the process, apparently waiting for me to start knitting. There was much subtle sighing in relief when I finally did.

OK, question in re: Grey's (not really a spoiler): Do y'all KNOW your college's alma mater? I know...the TUNE to mine, because I was in the pep band and we had to play it. But I don't think anyone but some few people in one of the choirs knows the words! But everyone knows the fight song. Is that odd?

That's some excellent acquisition, msbelle and shrift.

When my sister got married, we did this thing at the reception tossing balls of yarn (25-50 of them, I'd estimate) to each other to make this enormous sort of woven spider webby thing. It was a neat experience, but the end result, once everyone let go, was more of a giant tangle than anything else. Her mother-in-law patiently picked it all apart and rolled it all back into discrete balls. It took her months. I was amazed it could be done at all.

Eta: I know my college alma mater but (a) it's silly and easy to remember and (b) we didn't have a fight song to confuse the issue.

What if tomorrow bring, sorrow or anything, other than joy.
What if't be wintry chill, rain, storm, or summer's thrill?
Tomorrow's the future still,
This is today.
Tomorrow's the future still,
This is TO-DAY!
