Fortuitous timing: started playing Milk Street's June 12 podcast a few minutes ago, with plans to broil a steak in about 15 minutes, and lo, Kimball's interviewing Meathead Goldwyn...
I am at 57 hours and counting work-wise, plus proofreading legal docs, plus a barrow-load of dance and music homework, correspondence (political and personal), plus -- oh, you know, the usual melange of usual and unusual. I was pleased to realize that the prowling noises that had me sitting up shrieking in bed last week were actually branches of crepe myrtle scraping against my roof. The buds salvaged from the Sky's the Limit bush are opening up inside the teacup on my desk. . . .

. . . and the straw bale I'm conditioning for veggies has sprouted mushrooms. . . .

I won't be brave enough to try those, but there are two types of mushrooms in my fridge, and a steak to season now. Onward!
