Had a lovely day yesterday - took the day off work, slept in, ran errands, ate lots of chlorophyll.

Errands: bought some wineglasses at Sur la Table and spent much, much less than we would have liked to at Biordi Imports.

Fud: made a scramble for breakfast with fresh garlic, beet greens, and radish greens from our CSA basket. Had a crab sandwich (and salad!) with the wife at the Ferry Building fish market. Made fresh pesto for dinner, along with a salad of arugula, purple orach, and random lettuces (all from the CSA).

I actually felt good about going in to work today. That’s what a day off should do. My ankles are complaining about the amount of walking we did, but it was worth it.

Current Book: Peter F. Hamilton, The Nano Flower

Oh, to have the money to spend as much as I'd like at that place. It's scary ... <g>

Good author. I got caught up in one of his series before he finished it. Once I do finally find the rest, I'll have to reread the whole thing. How do you like the Nano Flower?

Yes, we have met. Just ask Chris J.

I enjoyed the series. Nano Flower less than Quantum Murder and Mindstar Rising - I was glad I checked them out from the library rather than buying them - but still, I thought it was worth reading. The only other of his that I've read was Fallen Dragon, which I didn't like as well.

Sue?
