<\/p>\nGuacamole made with early spring ingredients from the Farmer’s Market – a couple of hydroponic or hoop house tomatoes, and green garlic, along with lemons and limes and avocados from warmer places then WI (probably California or Mexico. I wonder if they’ll let produce through Trump’s wall?) We filled up on guacamole & chips, so I saved the roast asparagus & potatoes for lunch.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Although we did nibble on a few hunks of potato and asparagus, room temp. I seem to remember eating that sort of paring-knife-blade-shaped potato seen in the middle.<\/p>\n

With balsamic vinegar and an egg on top. The balsamic makes this kind of like Unky Dave’s potato salad<\/a>. The potatoes are roasted in oil, and then you add mustard and vinegar to complete the dressing after taking it out of the oven.<\/p>\n Speaking of my brother, he’s started reading\/podcasting some of his blog posts<\/a>. I guess 327 words is usually under 2 minutes, pretty cool. Made me wish I had recorded myself giving my 2-minute spiel on what I learned in how to teach good online class. It was last Friday morning, when I spilled my coffee on my name table tent<\/a>, and the table cloth – and generally made a mess. PS, they did record me, and here’s what it looks like<\/a>, although I would’ve preferred the audio only version, I think.<\/p>\n This morning (Wednesday, Star Wars May the fourth day) I am having a hurry up and wait day. Woke at 5:45 and lay in bed playing with my phone and thinking about all I had to do, and now at work, where, while some progress is being made, I am obviously distracted from the reading and writing and thinking things I should be doing at my computer: grading, creating a make up assignment for a student who was fired from his group project group, reviewing applications for a search committee I am on, drafting the schedule for the new students bootcamp in August. See, writing it all down is yet more progress, right? And, there are the lures to simply leave – like, to book my flight to the ALA conference in June on the departmental credit card, I need to bike home and get my new TSA precheck#. And I should walk over to the Union and get bus tickets for Chicago. So how come I’m writing a blog post? I keep thinking about the Janis Joplin documentary<\/a> on PBS that I watched most of last night; I should say something about that ….. enough.<\/p>\n
