Software Updates

Upgraded a tablet to KitKat (a breeze) and a desktop to Windows 8.1 (printer was a challenge).

Foraged for essential ingredient for the holidays at Lunds, Uptown. Pie crust will be from scratch–thanks, Dwight.

Cooking with wine today; some of it will even end up in the food. (Thank you, Julia Child.)

I’ve been meaning to do this for years.

Weeding shelves today. These are keepers–had them 40 years, Still computer science bedrock, still taught in college.

Rainy day. A day for playing loud music, slow-braising lamb and root vegetables, and finally tidying my office.

Filled up the tank in our 1996 Honda Civic today. That’s the fourth time I’ve filled it up this year.

Gave away frozen apple crisp kits today to neighbors. Plenty more in (stuffed) freezer.

Apple crisp kit production line, today. Tree produced its best apples ever: we stopped picking at 100 lbs.
