Ongoing life developments.

Today I took a six-mile bike ride. Did laundry. Cooked dinner, sent out two novel queries, then cooked lunch. Cooking lunch was supposed to involve braising; instead, there was enough liquid in the vegetables I let them stew in their own juices. It's always nice to see a phrase turned into something literal. Especially since letting them stew in their own juices concentrated the flavor, boiled off the excess water and reduced the solids down to what couldn't be broken. I can dig this.

But I don't think I'll be doing any exercise, not after all that standing and not in this heat. Peach wine, instead.
