weekend curiosities
Waiting for the mail is like watching your toenails grow... er... um, well and here I wasted my last ounce of battery so there are no pictures of the Botanic Garden :(
At the Greek Festival:
The microtonal music made us happy, not to mention the spanakopita, gyros and baklava (for I., I swear!). It makes one want to have unlimited funds and go consort with goats on broiling isles in the azure sea... and though you can't tell from the dancer's attire, they were actually quite good, and they were truly enjoying themselves. And it is always nice to see the playing fields leveled, you can still enjoy free public entertainment if you are homeless, that's what I love about D.F. (feeling a bit "homesick"), there is always a concert, performance or gallery opening, free to the public (not that I was ever homeless, but poor...). And speaking of money, if you have any extra or if you care a bout a free press... I meant to post this tidbit several days ago, but didn't have the ocasion.
Would you look at the head on that (woody wood) pecker!!!
And from the garden... wild artichoke flowering in the most anomalous of ways, exhibit A) showing off the lovely white sink (I discovered the marvels of Clorox!) and exhibit B) cradled in a lovely pot made by my aunt Shelley of Cambridge potting fame.

OPA! Qué hermosa quedó esa alcachofa, voy a intentar el mismo efecto estético con una calabaza que desde Jalogüín ha ido mutando en una esquina del patio. // Me impactó la noticia sobre el periódico de Oaxaca. Parece que al cuarto poder siempre le gana el quinto: la corrupción.
si, pero no te recomiendo que comas alcachofas silvesters ya que lo intentamos y no tienen casi carne y pican algo horrible con sus dientes picudos (grandiosa defensa natural)... y lo de Oaxaca me deprime demasiado... de veras no comprendo la corrupción, porqué querías robarle al pueblo para tu propio bien y que se jadan los demás??? es una postura verdaderamente consternante...
