ὧν ἓν καὶ τὸ σόν, ὦ σχέτλιε, μόριον εἰς τὸ πᾶν συντείνει βλέπον ἀεί, Plato, Laws 10 (translation)
καίπερ πάνσμικρον ὄν, σὲ δὲ λέληθεν περὶ τοῦτο αὐτὸ ὡς γένεσις ἕνεκα
ἐκείνου γίγνεται πᾶσα, ὅπως ᾖ τῷ τοῦ παντὸς βίῳ ὑπάρχουσα εὐδαίμων οὐσία,
οὐχ ἕνεκα σοῦ γιγνομένη, σὺ δ’ ἕνεκα ἐκείνου

Fruits, Bones, and Habits
Now that's just a hothouse tomato, and so it didn't taste as good as it looked. But my, doesn't it look good?
And we got some salad greens. And onions. And a salmon that we bought from the woman who'd caught it the day before--how cool is that? Delicious.
The wine? Oh, that's a sparkling rosé wine made just down the road at Chateau Ste. Michelle.
Speaking of food, I happened to eat at Quinn's a good deal lately. Fun place. They certainly make an effort to be a bit different, and to present ways to revel in the joys of being a carnivore.
One day I had the marrow bones for dinner. Yes, I said marrow bones. Oxtails are also great.
They also have quite a beer list. Here's a shot of the 750ml bottle of Meantime's India Pale Ale that Emily and I shared. Note the brandy snifter: apparently a $20 bottle of beer involves special glasses . . .
But what will Dave get?
That's right: Dave was here. Came to do some work or something, but was awesome enough to join us for dinner, a visit to Linda's Tavern (have I mentioned that Linda's is just super cool? Okay.), some disc golf the next day, and some tasty seafood at Etta's.
And now for something completely different:
Emily's been modeling this habit at work, where they're making a video about it so that they can preserve not only the outfits but also the proper wearing . . .
I could look at these pictures for hours. Hopefully we'll get a copy of the video, reader!
