I'm enjoying a glass of Morningstar Meadow's Sweet Cherry-ty Mead and wondering how the rest of the bottle will fare. Should I keep it in the fridge? How long will it keep?

This afternoon I went up to the Gourmet Ghetto in Berkeley for lunch. I chose Saul's Russian deli. It's a great place. Love their food and the ambiance. They have lots of veggie stuff too on their menu so I could take ciaran01 there. Their potato latkes are wonderful.

I also spent quite a lot of time at the Elephant Pharmacy. Thanks for the tip, sweet_pickles. I got ( Read more... )

Pancakes are, as you can tell from the name, a kind of cake. They make a nice, high-carbohydrate snack in the afternoon. Sort of like a danish, except more.

I met Hans at his office. He showed me how to get to Uvberget on a map and then we set off, each in our own car with him leading the way. It didn't take more than twenty minutes or so to drive to Slattefors, between Sturefors and Landeryd on the river Stångån. There's a small water power plant there and some locks on Kinda Kanal ( Read more... )
