Harassing my niece

Above: Me, harassing my 10-year-old niece (who took the photo). She also took the photo below in the same school playground:

Bows & Arrows?!?

As Scott Snyder pointed out in Flickr, apparently "throwing hatchets" is still okay. :-)

Since Jeff installed a firmware update, my laptop stopped its random shutdowns. Yay for Technonerdboys! I've started to finally catch up on all the work and e-mail that has been piling up during various illnesses and technical difficulties over the past three weeks.

Speaking of technonerdboys...

Parki's new motorcycle

Our friend Parki came for dinner yesterday, and we checked out his new motorcycle:

I made a spicy peanut chicken recipe from The Healthy Slow Cooker by Judith Finlayson which turned out quite well. Tonight I'm making a Turkey and Corn Chowder with Barley (with cumin, jalapeno peppers, other intriguing ingredients) from the same cookbook. I couldn't find packaged boneless turkey, so I bought a bunch of turkey drumsticks and cut off the meat. I did a terrible job and hated to waste all the scraps left on the bones, so I took the scrappy bones and dumped in a pot with water. Right now, they're simmering in a huge pot, hopefully resulting in some yummy turkey broth I can use for other recipes.

Mmm, and the air is fragrant with toasted cumin...

For you filkers out there (or anyone curious about filking), I've been gradually updating my Filk FAQ, with the help of members of the filk community. Most recent addition: What is an 'Interfilk wench'? You browse the full index of questions/answers so far and if you're not sure what filk is, here's an answer. :-)
