(no subject)

There's an interesting article in the NY Times today about brain injury and moral judgement. Work today was not bad. I did something really, really well and it was something that I highly doubt anyone else could have done with the same speed and skill. I was proud of that minor achievement. I even got to go home early today.

I've gotten two Mystery pieces from Kythryne and Amy. The most recent is a simple silver necklace, much like the neckvines she sells. It had some tiny glass beads scattered in the wire that just flash a bit of color. It is so perfect. The first mystery piece was a gorgeous faceted chunk of tigerseye, wrapped in smooth swirls of golden wire. It makes me think of Egypt, for some reason.

the pies of texas are upon you

Bud Royer of Round Top Cafe is doing a cooking class at Centrla Market next week on the pies of Texas. (Including peach pie!!!!) I'm deeply sad that it is in the middle of the day and I'll be stuck at work instead of learning to make Bud's pies. Damn it. Damn you universe!!

(I have this craving for peach pie so strong and visceral that I could just scream.)
