This is a very cool clock. I want to make one.  The one hour of drawing might not be so fun after the first 10 minutes.

I’ll have to try this All Natural NyQuil next time I’m sick. Mint, ginger, agave nectar, green chile and the secret ingredient … Southern Comfort.

This list of advice on how to prolong life is much more interesting than the usual exercise and dietary advice.

These tiny and cheap computers are amazing. Not sure what I would do with one, but they supposedly use one tenth the electricity so running a green blog using only solar or wind power would be a fun project.

Tonido Plug is comming soon for only $89.99.

Lifehacker – What Would You Do with a $40 Computer?

I found Cook for Good as usual from a lifehacker post. It was interesting to see how you can cook from scratch for $1.16 per meal which is, in some states, less than the food stamp allowance. Unfortunately, the plan is vegitarian but some of the recipies look good. I’m not sure any meal plan can “save the planet”, but to get started there was a rather long lesson on how to make a pot of beans.  So I soaked some dry navy beans overnight and cooked them in the crockpot all day Saturday and did my part to save the world.

I’m leaving tomorrow to return to the US on L’Avion airlines. 

Yes, the plane is purple inside and outside.  I’ve never seen the movie, but some say it looks like the Soul Plane. You decide.

The trip to Paris was very long on Tuesday into Wednesday.  Almost 4 hours delayed departure on top of the 8 hour flight, not to mention getting to Newark a couple hours early to check in. I may think twice about using them again. Other than the delay, it was a good experience.

Note: Although I fit their definition (traveling between NY and Paris for work), I don’t really want to be known as a Paryorker.

Just finished making a loaf of what was, and still is, affectionately called Garbage Bread in the Reasor house. Made from the orange peel of three oranges rescued from a trip to the local dump. It came out a little more cake-like and less dense than I remember.

Today we picked the first batch of Reasor Red Raspberries from the backyard. With the new canes from this year, next year’s crop should be bigger.
