Don’t get me wrong, I love a good salad. It’s just hard to acclimate the tastes to greenery after horking down a dawg. It was, aside from the buns, carrots and celery, a local feast. Lettuce mix, kohlrabi, scapes from the CSA plus the aforementioned carrots and celery. I absolutely adore kohlrabi. I am even enjoying a local beer.
Earlier today Lucy and I worked our way through several exhibits at the museum of natural history (aka my favorite place on earth) including the Hall of Biodiversity where I would love to live. I mean, look at that wall. Tell me you don’t want that in your house? We split some chicken nuggets and fries in the cafeteria, picked out a birthday present in the gift shop, and headed home.
And then! C took the kids to the playground, leaving me alone in the apartment. This is only the third time in a year I’ve been in the apartment without anyone here (apologies to the cats) and it took me twenty minutes to figure out what to do (fold laundry whilst blasting Peter Tosh.) I also made the salad and went to the grocery. It was really, really nice.
It feels like summer today and I am thoroughly enjoying it.
