I just took a bunch of books back the the library, unread. I kind of hate that? But, at the same time, I will sometimes just order whatever is on the awards lists and see what strikes my fancy. Some were obviously not what I was in the mood for at the moment.

Of the things still in my pile, I just don't know what I want. I am having a bit of reading ennui. Maybe I should poll everyone and see what you all think I should read next of the various things that I have around.

I have no idea if this will work, but I'd love some help deciding.

Otherwise, I did try to take my computer into Best Buy today, but they are mostly doing by-appointment-only still and so the guy that started to help me got interrupted by the people, who, you know, went through the right channels. So, I quietly packed my things up, bought a web cam, just to see if I couldn't get that to work in the mean time, and made plans to make an appointment to return via proper protocols.

Then, I picked up my CSA, which is in full swing now, because I got:

  • Beets - 1 bunch
  • Collard Greens - 1 bunch
  • Red Radish - 1 bunch
  • Kohlrabi - 1 count
  • Pickling Cucumber - 1 lb
  • Zucchini - 1 lb
  • Kale - 1 bunch
  • Lettuce - 1 bunch
  • Scallions - 1 bunch
  • Rhubarb - 1 bunch
  • Basil - 1 bunch
  • Parsley - 1 bunch
  • Dill - 1 bunch

And I still have a bit of stuff left from last week??? Anyway, this is one of my joys of CSAs. I like trying to figure out how to use up all of this stuff in a week!

So... what are you all reading and/or consuming? Anything worth reporting?
