Pictures

I have posted some initial pictures in my gallery:

  • Our first days in NC. The pictures there are around the UNC campus; playing bocce at Keith and Sabrina’s; the area in front of our new apartment.
  • Kat’s science pictures. These are around the lab and her new bird room. As you can see, starlings are literally full of shit.
  • The Carrboro Farmer’s Market. We went on Saturday. I didn’t get a lot of pictures, since we were more focused on the market than the pictures.

The market happens every Wed and Sat. We bought a half pound cake from a wonderfully jolly old woman. Ended up telling her our life-story for some reason. She seemed interested.

“I just finished my PhD.” “Oooh, no, you di-int!”… “We moved from Vancouver.” “G’on… my lord!”

And ooh lordy [look, I’m integrating], could that woman make a pound cake! I think it’s probably the softer flour used around these parts. It was soft and dense at the same time. Great flavour. It had a lemon glaze that really didn’t add anything because the cake was so nice.

Now I made myself hungry. I hope she’s there on Wednesday, but I think the Wednesday markets are only farmers.

    I can’t believe she actually said “Oh no you di-n’t.”

    “Oooh”, no “oh”. It was a statement of suprise, not an assertion.

    Maybe “Oo-ooh! No you di-n’t.” (with falling intonation)

    either way, disturbing.
