Hm, I think eating half a pound of cherries may have slaked my desire for wine for the nonce. Fresh cherries on a hot day = nom.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Mmm, cherries. Hm, that's what I should have done. Stopped by the grocery for fruit and cheese on my way home. Oh well.

Did I remember to mention that I finally made it to the Farmer's Market yesterday? I did. It was the first day of the season (why it isn't open for the winter I'm not sure I understand, there's certainly local produce available, but maybe people aren't willing to go shopping in the park when it's colder and wetter) and I had finished my CSA haul, so that worked out very well for me. I would invite y'all to come eat some of it up (and potato salad!) but my house is so not fit for guests...and the distance thing, of course.

Oh, our farmer's market opens on Sunday. Though we won't have any local produce for at least another month - don't want to think what all this late snow has done to the harvests.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

My shoulder is sore because I was toting around a bag full of books. Mostly freebies, but I also bought 4.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

You know, I like fresh produce and potato salad.

I think someone sprinkled sleepy dust on my house. All of the critters are asleep, and I keep nodding off.

Last day of my staycation---boo.

I hope to make it to our farmers market tomorrow. There's a bakery that sells what they call brewery's bread there, made with the grains after they'd been used to make beer. I've tried it before, and it's amazing. There's another vender there who sells goat cheese, half a dozen with various greens, and a few with the season's first strawberries and tomatoes. Theres no bad there. Also, one of the vendors sells Jerusalem artichokes, which look interesting.

Mine had the same sleepy dust all over this morning! Which would have been better on a day where I didn't need to be up and out.

I'll bring you a quart of potato salad tomorrow, Lee! And maybe some strawberries. I didn't plan to buy them, but they smelled so good when I walked by, I had to.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sigh. What makes you think that a 40 year old librarian wearing a wedding ring would possibly be interested in getting freaky with a presumably unemployed guy who spends the day hanging out in the library? I mean, he was relatively un-crude and polite about it, but seriously??

Were you wearing big glasses, a pout, and a bun held in place by pencils?
