ellarien: two laptops (computers2)
[personal profile] ellarien
I went a little overboard in the produce section of my local grocery store today: four plums, four pluots, a peach, a couple of pears, three different squashes, a bag of baby potatoes, and a bundle of asparagus. No frozen junk or canned fruit for me this week! Dinner tonight was dover sole (baked with a good sprinkle of tarragon and basil), boiled baby potatoes, and asparagus nuked for ninety seconds in a little water. (My philosophy of cooking, given actual ingredients, mostly amounts to 'cook until done, with minimal or no added fat and no salt, then eat;' lately I've taken to sprinkling on random herbs before the cooking stage.)

My other accomplishment for today was to rearrange the computer desk ... yet again ... so that the main box sits under the desk; with the enhanced antenna sitting in front, that's a viable arrangement. At the same time I set up the new external drive and started running a full back up, which is still in progress as I type. (I'm using the Behemoth laptop today; it's been a while since I actually had the thing on my lap, and its heavy.)

Mission Statement

Reading, writing, plant photography, and the small details of my life, with digressions into science and computing.
