Day 242 (Sunday-Chol HaMoed)

Remember the the Kornbluths' intimidating niceness? I popped by this afternoon to return a pair of sunglasses I found in our sukkah, and I left with half of a sandwich and a glass of chocolate milk (both inside BSM), the end of a bottle of pomegranate wine, a new board book, the loan of a juicer, and an invitation to borrow their grill. Oh, man. Oh, my my. Wow.

Speaking of the juicer, I have finally been chided by the neighbors enough that I picked even the bad pomegranates from our trees, cut off the bad bits, and juiced them (along with the good pomegranates that I picked right before Rosh HaShana).

Luckily, Aunty Em and clan came for a barbeque today, or else I would have been left with spoiling pomegranate juice in place of the rotting pomegranates. It's nice, this hosting of family events. It's also pretty glorious having a sukkah that can fit 15 people without squishing, especially when putting up that sukkah took such minimal work. Thank you, Landpeople!

I also finished putting together BSM's growth charts today. I doubt that his pediatrician's office really wants them (if they did, they would have asked me for his growth data), but I like to have everything neatly stitched together in one record. So there. Also, I miss drawing graphs and trendlines.
