Conversation this morning on the bus with an older gentleman I've chatted with before (he's also a diehard Giants fan), as I'm getting ready to debark:

"You work for the Man, dontcha?"
"Yes... yes I do."
"Are you an attorney?"
"No. I'm not smart enough to be an attorney. I'm in the Treasurer's office."
"You look like an attorney. You dress nice."
"Well, thank you. Have a good day."

This week's Resolution Recipe, which I actually made last week: Carnitas.

The Joys of Summer

The wife suggested we have a summery meal for our turn at the homeowners' meeting. I thought it sounded like a good idea too. So we made:

a tomato-gruyere tart
a cold feta-asparagus salad

and for dessert, vanilla ice cream with a fresh strawberry coulis.

It was tasty. Of course, it would have been even better if it had been 85 degrees out, instead of 65.
