For my Caesar, I make croutons from polenta. Sort of like the polenta fries at Cibo’s except I toast them instead of fry them

The "Patient denies X" really bugs me for some reason and I think you have nailed. It's if I was caught in a lie somehow. I definitely hear blame in that language.

ah natalie, i so get the "can i fail my vision test" vibe. and the "halos" poem was so luscious...when it came through my own email inbox, i sent it to one of my artist friends because it resonated so deeply. i plan to head to the Portland Art Museum to experience the forthcoming "Monet to Matisse" exhibit with a new "lens" after reading that poem.

thank you for sharing wonderful you!

I love all of your reading, writing, eating suggestions AND this week's was among the best. I'd love to get my (not so tiny) paws on your reading as a writer handout. Happy Anniversary to you and that lovely dancing man. And love to Stanley, too.

Love the Monet poem! And kintsugi! And I do see the halos and they are not soft and blendy but knife sharp. All my friends have had the eye operation. My cataracts are not yet “bad enough” but still my friends make me drive to parties at night
