Ooooohhhh!!!!! Did you saute the morels with the fiddleheads??? Oh man, lucky lucky you!

(or maybe they aren't the edible kind of fiddleheads?)

Just got home from another book sale, my mom and I have hit two in the last couple of weeks...yay books!!!!

My honey, my mom, and I were invited to a picnic lunch at our neighbors house (we gave them our old picnic table and they wanted to say thanks)...they made portobello sandwiches with a fresh herb aioli, fresh greens with a lime dressing, and chunked up fresh pineapple/papaya/strawberries for dessert...it was amazing!

I'm not sure what kind of fiddleheads they are or which kinds are edible, so I just left them there. Pretty, though. We had the morels with penne and broccoli. Plenty of garlic, a little red pepper, mmmmmm.

And the season's just starting. Rain on Tuesday should really bring them out.

Oh, wow.

So I pulled out my old, neglected edible wild plants book.

I'm still not sure what kind of fiddleheads they are. But guess what I found folded up between the pages?

The cue sheet I'd made for my very first bicycle tour, June, 1982.

Could I actually have brought that book on that tour? I don't remember, but it's definitely possible. Speaking of the other thread... I brought the heaviest stuff imaginable with me, so books were probably on the list.

Anyway, an unexpected blast from the past!

Men trying to be supportive, gotta love them.

On a ride yesterday with my friend:
Me: "I am so out of shape"
Ian: "Round is a shape".

Funny that was the same quote that went between a cycling friend and I when I caught her running on the levee path last week - I haven't seen her since last fall. She was grumbling about being out of shape - she could probably out ride me with one hand tied behind her back - and I had the appropriate response.....

We had a fresh yeast bread boule warm from the oven for lunch....mmmmmmm....

Only 2 papers and presentations left...
I made it through the second and final weekend of my weekend format course.
Two weeks from tomorrow I will have officially finished my first of the 3 years of my program.
Although, I have blocked out Wednesday to go on a 45 mile ride with my group.
Priorities, right?

I have three...no...four...papers to write before next week...social problems...two for history...one for my internship.

On another note...going to a huge Mazda meet this weekend in NY!

Today it was supposed to rain--3 to 4 inches, 90-100% chance depending on who you asked. Today was also the first day of our youth baseball season. Guess who was counting on rain and didn't do a LOT of things she should have done to get ready for the season, like put drinks in the cooler and buy candy for the concession stand?

Guess where it didn't rain ALL DAY??

I pulled it off, though.

We got your rain...it's in my basement.

At least it's not on the first floor level.

I just made an eye doctor appointment for my 30 year old son who will be losing all medical benefits after may 15th. I've been begging him to do this for 4 years so I finally just did it for him. And yes, I will accompany him there.

Mimi - You're such a............MOM! That gave me a good chuckle that you had to do that for him. Maybe next time he'll listen to his mother before she has to go to such great lengths again. Most boys at 13 don't want to have their moms drive them to places, how does he feel about it?
