famous orange tulips


Keeping up with the famous tradition of orange tulips for Valentine's Day, with a side of toaster.

more banana yogurt


This time with stevia. I didn't mind it.

Sorry!


To the best of my memory, I had never played Sorry! before. All board games have sets of rules of varying complexity, and a degree of disorientation is normal and to be expected. Best to just dive in and get wet. Since I also have a history of winning games from a combination of dumb luck, favorable karma and pure skill, I won the first time.

Pinyon breakfast


On account of the early hour it was a blur. There was a very good pistachio croissant however. Eventually I had enough coffee that things got less blurry. Above, a non-blurry image.

Buena Bodega revisited


This time I tried their mediterranean bagel and was pleasantly surprised. Mrs. had the bagel with schmear and an iced banana creme latte. It was a good light lunch.

 

Killers of the Flower Moon

A great book and a great movie, but I suddenly no longer feel the need to own the book. My only reservation is a nagging curiosity about what poison was used in the infamous Osage Murders. I've flipped through the book and done some googling, and what I'm getting is that morphine was the culprit, or possibly laudanum (which is derived from opium and related to morphine).
