Rob is making another step in his efforts to sell the wine that he has made. This has been on our front window for the past two weeks and we get to take it down today. Hurrah.
I think I might have neglected to mention that Harvest preperation has begun, so Rob has been away at the winery since Monday. He came home tonight around 8:30 and will be gone again by 5:30 tomorrow morning. I’ve missed him.
It’s not often that I say, “I had a really great day on the boat.” But tonight’s cruise was a lot of fun. I worked lunch, which was fine. It was a very, very easy cruise. Then dinner was a blast. It was a tour group of retirees. They were in town from Ashland to
During every spare minute I am working on getting Shimmer ready to go to press. I think we’re pretty close to the final draft now. If you like science fiction and fantasy, buy a copy.

I worked double-shifts on Saturday and Sunday. This seems to be the way my weekends work now. All told, I biked forty-eight miles this weekend. So after my last shift I took a hot bath and went to bed. Rob made a nice, very light dinner from Farmer’s market produce. He tried to replicate a

The last rumor we had heard suggested that the start date was being pushed back until March. It’s been frustrating trying to make plans. But today! Thora, from LazyTown, called and said that we will be starting in January. She said we’ll start shortly after the New Year. Hurrah.
I went down to Westry Winery with Rob to help with the bottling line. This was my first time working on an assembly line and boy, it was as dull as one might expect. My job was to put the capsules on the top of the bottle. This is the piece of foil that goes
I worked a double on the boat yesterday. The second cruise was for a 60th birthday party. The birthday boy’s wife gave every appearance of being a trophy wife. I’d give them the benefit of the doubt and say it was a May/December romance, except that he hit on me twice. Once at the end
I sent Orson Scott Card the link to Rampion and he wrote back to say, “Wonderful story. And a good, low-key, but chilling reading.” How cool is that?

I didn’t have to work today. It was a very strange feeling. I responded by mopping the floor and pruning some plants. I’m thinking about baking some zuchinni bread.
Ah, and then today I’m back to my normal humdrum life. I worked on the boat, Rob made wine. I did work on the typesetting for Shimmer but that was not complicated or particuarly exciting. Oh. I made a marinara from yellow tomatoes out of our garden. It’s pretty, but I don’t know when we’ll

On the way back from Seattle, Rob, who knows what I like, took me to the Boeing Surplus Store. Oh my. The tools, the scrap titanium, the sheer volume of random oddities. It was glorious. I picked up a roll of reflective tape, some non-skid tread for our back steps, a ream of paper, and

The Harvest Vine: “Contemporary Cuisine from the Basque Country After my audition last night, Rob and I went out with our friend MaryClaire to this fabulous restaurant. The food was so good that conversation had to stop everytime a new dish came to the table. Because it was a tapas restaurant, we had many, many
