We do have some other activities going on....
We read. This is Mike's current book. The author has an astounding ability to explain astrophysics in a way that leaves you wondering, "Gee, why didn't I major in that? Why isn't this part of the regular elementary school curriculum?" He's an occasional guest on "Lou Dobbs Tonight" whenever Lou wants to talk space with an undeniable expert with outstanding conversational skills. You want to invite Tyson (or Lou Dobbs) over for dinner.
I'm reading:
The best feature of this book is the first section. It is a compilation of boilerplate recipes for vegetables in standard dishes - like stir-fries, gratins, quiches, roasted vegetable combinations, pizzas, and so forth. There's about 10 different basic recipes, and good instructions on the nuances of the variations. You can pretty much determine if a particular vegetable will work, and how to use it, from this section. The rest of the book is an excellent summary of the most common (and delicious) vegetables that come into season spring through fall. Apparently the author eats out during the winter.
