Quick update, mostly books

- Motoring, more or less, through the Arisaig shoulder shaping.

- Tossed the fennel ratatouille. Though the glass bits weren't blue, the thought of 'em nauseated me.

- More food posts after farm share pickup tomorrow and after I photograph a crucial item I oddly neglected to photograph.

- Read tonight instead of cooking or knitting (or working). I note anxiously that three unread issues of the New Yorker seem to be hanging out on my kitchen and coffee tables, and I don't want to be That Person.

- But I don't much care, because along with my compulsive re-rereading of the Julie/Julia Project blog (Ny: Far more cooking descriptions, just as much Buffy) I bought the (ahem) "blook" in paperback this morning and seem, as of 12:30 a.m., to have read 160-odd pages of it.

- The end of this week I'm booked back to back to back. Hence the current couch colonization.

- And so without further ado or apology, may I introduce you to...

Boswell the second

Bozzie the Second-- 990 pages of 18th-century bedtime reading delight. In this edition I've reached page 405. I think.

Nothing makes me happier than finding other nerds. I may not spend 1,000 pages on History, but give me a slim volume of 18th Century German Poetry and I'm in heaven. Here's to reading what makes us happy.

Sorry 'bout the blue bits.

I miss Bozzie the First, which (whom?) I trash-picked, I think. But it is relaxing to think that I have only 500+ more pages to go instead of 900.
