Dietary Recommendations…

I wanted to remember this for later. I’m still working the formula for a breakfast shake.

Photo Exhibit at the Huntington

The Huntington has a new photo exhibit that focuses on LA both in subject matter and photographers. This link is a reminder to get over there and check it out.

Boulevard

I’m currently watching a video web art piece thingy that I don’t really know what to call. It’s web art like you would see at an art gallery and it’s pretty interesting.

Took a bike ride to Whitesaddle this weekend and the hills were infested with these blotches of brilliant color. Something has to be done…

Put this with the cool things C-man has said,”MOM, do you ever think that when you look in a mirror and you see ‘you’ that that person in the mirror is in another reality. Is a REAL other person, and that they have a whole life? But here’s the problem….when I step away from the mirror he disappears, right? But for him so do I.”

The Strawberries Were Watching

So….

I had purchased some strawberries as part of operation Spoiled Goddess last weekend and I was cutting them up to freeze the leftovers, when I noticed something. O.o Now, I’ll be the first to admit that my mind confuses me (and others I’m sure) but I was looking into the pile of sliced strawberries when I noticed a snout. !!!

Yes a snout. I know. Here’s what I did…

I grabbed it. Stuck it onto a little plate with a couple of slices for eyes and a top for hair and I had a fruity face that bore silent witness to my savagery as I cut up the remainder of the box. I do stuff like that. <<shrug>>

**UPDATE**

I saved it for the Goddess when she got home and of course she improved on the image…

…then she demonstrated she is a notional Goddess by…

Exer-wall

Did my run early today to avoid the possible triple digit heat. I’ve been running now for a little over 4 weeks and I’ve hit a wall at 3 miles where my left knee just won’t go past. I’m hoping in another couple of months the non-muscle support structure will have strengthened so I can push past. I’m also going to hit the sporting goods store I think and see what they have in knee supports that might be appropriate. Gonna run some errands as soon as the C-man is done with breakfast and then I think some sprinklers and squirt gun fights will be the order of the day.

As an aside, I’m really grumpy about the gas prices. One of my favorite past times used to be packing the C-man and the Goddess into the car and heading to the blank places on the map, but the current prices have really shrunk my range. I think in the long term high gas prices are good for the planet, but eh…it’s personally annoying.

Have a good weekend.
