OK, guys, I’ll be honest. I was sick as can be at hand.craft.it this past Saturday. The whole day is sort of like a blur of crafts and shoppers and music. Luckily, Raoul over at Rancho Cocoa did a wonderful writeup! Read all about it!

Here are the two pictures that Dave took with his iPhone:

Home From Londontown

[I think I was trying to mimic the majestic unicorn and lion on the gate.]

We’re home from a whole week in London! We ate so well all week! I was struck by how sensitive restaurants are to vegetarians there. Every place had veg. options. It was a little trickier to eat vegan there, but really not too bad. There are noodle and falafel places at every turn, and we also found a vegan Asian buffet and a couple of really delicious all vegetarian restaurants. Folks kept telling us that the food in London is terrible. I don’t know where they were eating, but we found delicious food for under £10 all over the place! We also had blue skies for the vast majority of our time there!

[Most of the days were like this - cold, but blue and clear.]

It felt like we did a million things every day! We visited the Tate Modern, British Museum, British Library to see the Magna Carta, Royal Observatory at Greenwich and a ton of other places with names ending in “seum.” One of my favorite places was this creaky old attic which housed an old operating theatre and herb garret. There were cases full of old medical equipment and creepy jarred organs and dried medicinal herbs with descriptions of their uses. I don’t know why I’m drawn to things like that, but I guess I am!
