popularity contest

October 22, 2005

I was in my local Borders Books this morning, and perhaps this sign has been there the whole time and I just didn’t notice, or perhaps its a new sign, but none the less, there is a “Popular Fiction” sign over the SF, mystery, and romance sections now.

I went around the corner:

This must be the unpopular fiction section.

career tips

If there is going to be an event at work where there might be co-workers there who might take your picture and put it up on flickr, consider wearing eye makeup.
At least attempt to feign interest in one’s boss’s conversation.

pesto stowaway

September 4, 2005

in Food, Home & Garden, Photos

Summer is pesto season. Every year I grow a whole lot of big-leaf basil just for making loads and loads of pesto. Some for eating, some for freezing, just so we can have pesto year round.

Last week I harvested a big load of basil and was cleaning it in the sink when suddenly one of the basil leaves wiggled at me.

This very large green bug had stowed away on the basil I had harvested. The camouflage was perfect; the bug is precisely the same color as the basil.

I of course maneuvered the bug to a better location so I could take pictures and then let him go.
