Saturday Morning Hike

Decided not to bike to Farmer's Market because of the rain last night (my commute bike is sans fenders), but I still wanted sheep cheese. I feel guilty as hell driving to such a place, so we walked. Ok, I like walking around on a nice cool grey morning. Picked up a couple of eggplants that we'll try to make a sweet eggplant dip out of and a gallon of local cider (which I want to mull right now). There was no sheep cheese.

Used starstraf's garage sale map to spot the sales that could be stopped at on the way home. There was only one, but I really didn't have hands free to carry much. I scored yet another thing I didn't realize I wanted, but cheap enough that I did. For $10 I got a dumbek. Good enough for my yearly SCA events, I guess. And for $10, I figure it is my turn to add to the random instruments in the house.

Farm Stores Give the Hard Sell

From the description of our farm cats' special brand of cat food:
"For non-producing adult cats whose appetites exceed their energy needs. pH balenced."

Yep. That describes my cats. Though Lju is out in the back yard on a harness.
