I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

It's a really nice place, Jen! I mostly have been there when they take part in the winery passport thing (they partner with a winery but also have samples of their olive oils and vinegars and provide the food) but they also do community millings so people who have, say, an olive tree with a small harvest can press their own oil, and their restaurant is open all the time, I guess, but by reservation only since the pandemic and they are just far enough away that I generally feel like it's too much trouble to get over there. I do see their menus pretty regularly, though, and the current one sounded especially good *and* has a specialty martini so I am bestirring myself.

There are actually a couple of other olive oil emporia nearby, it's a major crop for the area. This one is my favorite.

Good to hear. I agree that English 101 is often a snoozefest.

My son, who lived in Florida for the first 28 years of his life, didn't understand boots and gloves, and I finally realized that 1-1/2 winters in and broke down and bought him some. He said I changed his life. Seriously, I should have waited it out and let him figure it out. Now I wonder if he ever would have. He's back in Florida and probably understands the rules better here, but at 34 he is still not swift with figuring out normal life stuff.
