Volunteers only

Today, we
- went to the farm to admire the John Deere tractors and their flock of fluffy chickens, and incidentally acquired a lot of vegetables
- went to the post office
- went to the library and got a bunch of books, mostly concerning things with wheels
- got a muffin for Tiger and a cheese danish for me
- napped
- melted frozen chili
- tried to do some crosswording (I'm way out of practice)
- made pumpkin muffins
- went to the farm's Gala End-of-Season Potluck. We brought chili and pumpkin muffins. The greenhouse was all done up with fairy lights and candles and was very festive. I got my first taste of parsnip; I think it'd go well in casserole with yams, K's not so sure. By the time they got to the speeches, Tiger was doing laps of the table with Farmer Dave's boys. The first round of applause startled them into momentary immobility. Then they got back to business. After the second course, we packed up and took off.

And now, it's time for me to stop monopolizing the kitchen computer so K can place her Fresh Direct order already.


Today's earrings: moose, theobromine molecules
