1) I will post that recipe for ginger-pear bread before the end of the week. I need to finish the webzine first, because I want to finish before the new deadline.
2) Tell me there's a magic spell that grants teenagers common sense, because mine went to a friend's party the other night, and the host vomitted all over (from a virus, not drinking), so she helped clean it up, stayed with him for hours, and didn't bother to warn her family about it. Who picked her up when she was covered in puke-germs?
Why, immuno-supressed mom, of course! She told me it was food-poisoning, but as she described things during our ride home, I knew it wasn't. I prayed I wasn't going to get sick. This morning, I am sick. This morning, COLE is feeling like he's going to be that kind of sick.
Who ISN'T sick? The girl. Doh!
So,
renegade_geek, since I wasn't actively "ill" when I visited or baked, I don't think you'll get ill, but it's entirely possible that I yet again accidentally exposed you to an illness, for which I am, as always sorry, sorry, sorry.
Where's my bubble?
3) Birds. Lots. Having breakfast in my yard. Nifty! The kestral may have moved out of the pine, although I did find a mouse head last week...
4) I have been reading and intend to comment. My life has just been disjointed. Each time it is interrupted of late, I confront the offender instead of retreating to my journal, so that keeps me from having time to tell you "hello." Working on restoring balance.
Be well today, and go out and vote! If you exercise your right not to do so, remember to exercise your right to keep your mouth closed later.
