Hey look!  I’m a Fun Fact!

I’m pretty sure that the woman on the right was curing the man on the left of his allergies, using some kind of Bulgarian folk magic.  Or something like that.

We’re celebrating books and storytelling at work this week, and I was so glad to see that our Pooh Bear on display is not the Disney version, which is simply blasphemous.

I haven’t posted a picture from Russo’s market in a while, but today was the first time in a long time I’ve come across something there and had no idea what it was.

 

Took advantage of today’s gorgeous weather and went for a walk at Mt Auburn Cemetary, where we spotted this very strange (and mildly phallic) root formations growing up from the ground near this tree.

I’m not sure I’d scan this even if I had a smartphone to do it with.  But I still like the nature of this.

I managed to turn on the kitchen faucet so low that the water wasn’t coming out in streams, but in individual little raindrops.  It was kind of cool, really.

We went for a delightful walk along the river today, and came across this bench.  Which would probably be a lovely place to rest, if you could get to it.

Spotted this business plan today on a tour of Autodesk’s Build Space.  This start-up is designing incubators that run off car batteries, and could be used to help newborns in remote places.  It’s quite possibly the best business plan ever.

 

Sometimes when I order things, I will put a note requesting a silly picture.  I figure it gives the order pickers a break in routine, and since I’ve usually forgotten about it by the time it arrives, I get a fun surprise.  This time, I asked for the order to please include a drawing of a duck.  And they sent FIVE!!  It made my day.
