Baby got back?
I have to admit to a guilty fondness for Gilbert and Sullivan, but I also must admit, I never expected this. -
Get Sparked...
I've just finished reading Spark and now I understand why Spiritualmonkey was so hot on recommending it. I think it has been an awesome read, and well worth the cost of the book. I'll add in my own biased recommendation. If you only read one book this year (which would be sad), "Spark" would be a great choice to read. -
Followup on rice cooker

No gas...
Sears apparently doesn't ship lawn mowers to Glasgow, so MontanaMary was kind enough to haul one over when she and The Bug came to visit. Today I got to try it out, and was pleasantly surprised. While it's not totally quiet, it is a lot quieter than a gas mower, and there is no gas tank to fill, no oil to change, all in all very pleasant to use, and light ( Read more... )
