I would not be opposed to you describing it for me after you eat it.

Well, it's a fresh baguette from a local French bakery. So it's crusty, of course, but has that soft, cottony texture on the inside.

I cut off a quarter of it, and split it. I spread that liberally with Danish Creamery butter and toss it in the oven. When I take it out, the bread is hot to the touch and the butter has melted into the bread. The marmalade I've got is thick cut, homemade with a bright flavor and gorgeous orange colour. (That's right. With a "u.") I spooned it into the hot baguette, closed it up, wrapped the bottom with a paper towel because it was still hot to the touch and bit into it. Perfect crunch of the outer crust, and then the warm bread texture, melted butter and bright marmalade made my mouth happy. Very satisfying bite.

Very satisfying bite.

You are too good to me. God, that sounds so good.

I do have a fantastic bowl of chili by my side, but wow, does a baguette sound good.

How did I manage to miss Cow Clicker? Just heard about it on NPR and I am such an addict of facebook games that it amazes me that I didn't. I mean - they had an Appocowlypse and the cows all disappeared in a Rapture!

Heh, that's the only one actually spelled right: [link]

Ha! That's the only one I couldn't figure out, too. Looks cool, I must say.

Portabello burger (meaning a burger, with a portabello on top, so, really, half of one, because holy hell, that's a lot of food. Lunch tomorrow.) and fries for dinner, and yummy cream of crab soup. And a pastry for later.

Huh. I work in an environment where I can tell my boss that I'm more man than he is, and he'll laugh and say I'm right. This is very weird.

Also, I have to go home. Phone, stop ringing. Tablet, stop playing the Knight Rider theme music.

Mmmm. God, that sounds good.

Food porn! We are having spagetti squash with Ragu doctored up with onions, garlic, and venison sausage. I hauled a bunch of firewood and the SO built the fire. Seabiscuit is aggressively snuggled up to me because until the fire gets going it is chilly in here.

Had our last day of classes today. Mixed feelings about it, but one of our little, formerly recalcitrant, students successfully played "Long, Long Ago" and we gave out Hot Wheels for correct music theory question answers. So I'm calling it a win.

I'm in denial that I'm getting on a plane tomorrow. I'm half-assedly packed, house is kind of a disaster, I'm still planning on shoehorning in a swim in the morning. And I don't feel like doing anything more tonight. HAHAHA.

My, isn't this a pretty knife? I have one kind of like it. It doesn't have the clip, and it's a bit squarer.

Someone else get one? So I can live vicariously through them?

That clip doesn't look usable. The geometry is wrong.

I also have a knife of similar design: [link] . Is it the same as the one you have?

Yup, dcp, except not with the black. I likes. Pretty.
