I have heard, through the grapevine, that certain readers are politely wondering what the devil I've been doing slacking off my posts in the last couple of weeks, and to you I say:
...well, I hadn't figured out what to say yet, really, because I'd been sorting through my excuses trying to figure out the best one. Since a favorite hasn't emerged yet, you're stuck with the whole list:
1. I was in Oregon.
2. On the way back from Oregon, I was inescapably confronted with a packet of
Northwest Nibbles when a flight attendant chucked them onto my tray table and refused to take them back, and I lapsed into a deep depression over their continued existence.
3. Because of #1, we missed our CSA box last week, and so we have since been lacking our usual heaps of inspirational produce.
4. We have been
revisiting old favorites.
5. I have developed an unholy and unshakable addiction to
cara cara oranges, which are amazing and delicious and so juicy that it would be imprudent and irresponsible to type while one is stuffing them in one's face.
While you're waiting for me to run out of oranges and cook something,
read this. It's excellent. Kind of like a cara cara orange for the brain.
(Have I mentioned that I may be slightly obsessed?)
