Quoteables

At previous request, I have found some nice quotes, some of which I have dedicated to my followers. (dear souls) Here they are:

For Megan: Genius is only a superior power of seeing. - Rushkin

For Mitch: If we knew what we were doing, it wouldn't be called research. - Einstein

For Josh: Violent excitement exhausts the mind, and leaves it withered and sterile. - Fenelon

For Ridge: Ambition is not a vice of little people. - Montainge

For Laurel: What we see depends on what we look for. - Lubbock

For everyone else: You have not fulfilled every duty unless you have fulfilled that of being cheerful and pleasant. - Buxton

A Thousand Words

My filter is not letting me load pictures right now, so you shall have to be satisfied with a non-photographic blog for a while.
The other day, I made biscotti for the first time. It was a recipe that didn't take any butter. Exciting. Unusual. Healthy. Suspicious. It didn't work. But before I condemn the recipe, I will offer the speculation that perhaps it was just another case of good old-fashioned operator error.
So, I tried a different recipe with butter. It is really good. But of course, butter makes anything good. And eating biscotti always calls for (a.) tea (b.) vino (c.) coffee. I'll take the coffee. Coffee is even better than butter.
I'll keep working on the pictures, so you can see my biscotti. (sorry, there is no way for you to smell it.)
