complete with real olives!  from Marliave, where we had dinner last night before the Weird Al concert. An outstanding meal, I must say.

from the yard sale at work. I wonder if anyone actually bought it..

when there’s an alligator in your office, it can be a surprise when you’ve forgotten about it over the weekend.

Taking advantage of this freakish weather* to wash the kitchen rug and let it dry in the sun.

We did a program at work today where we invited kids to match the manmade or “pretend” object with the “real” version of the animal it represented. The fun was in watching people’s reactions when they realized one of the objects was still walking around…
