[Argh. I'm falling behind on entries and comments, cannot keep to a sentence limit, and am increasingly unsure why anyone would actually want to read what is basically "what I did today" reportage. Is this whole experiment worth it? I am dubious!]

Aw, I wish I could've gone to see Al Gore with you! Glad you had a great time.

I did get your message, by the way, and will keep you posted if anything similar shows up again and I can go.

Dessert truck is awesome!

The chocolate bread pudding is aces. If you are adventurous try the bacon ice cream on it...

apintrix has filled in for me where I am slow, but the bread pudding is my favorite, too. Though the cheesecake with rosemary caramel that I mentioned last time has joined the regular menu and is a very close second.

Keep it up! I like it.

oh that ole American ingenuity.

I don't think we're much for American ingenuity these days in any areas but a) computer science, and b) movie special effects (see: a).

But really. I kind of feel like the old saw about American resourcefulness and ingenuity is sort of resting on the laurels of another time-- if it was anything but a myth to start with. Kids don't play with chemistry sets and build rockets, not really. No Doc Brown for every town. Was it always just the movies? Was that really U.S.?

Sorry for ignoring this comment for awhile! I liked it a whole lot, but then I got distracted

Well, _I'm_ enjoying anything you feel like writing about...
