Feb 19, lunch. Chinese food at the Chinese restaurant near Adrienne's office. Shrimp and noodles. Good. The egg roll: bad, but what did I expect? With Adrienne.


Feb 19, dinner. At Zemam's in Tucson with Mark and Rose. That little bit of green on the right under the Gored Gored is a zucchini pancake. Rose can't take gluten, so she usually brings her own injeera made of teff, but when she doesn't have teff or time, sometimes something else pops up.

Feb 21, dessert. Jan's birthday cake, made by her mom. Three layers, loads of lovely cream cheese icing, nuts, and delicious all the way around. With ice cream and whipped cream if you wanted it!
