bits and bobs

I've just started The Highest Frontier by Joan Slonczewski. I'm only about 5 pages in but I'm excited. Joan Slonczewski is a biologist which means she gets the science that is important to me right. I totally loved A Door Into Ocean by the same author(it's got planet of purple pacifist women with ecotech -- what's not to love) so I've been meaning to read the sequels when I can track them down. However this just came out and my mother bought me a shinny new hard back copy.

I've been very busy this last week. There was a long book to read in my History of American Agriculture Seminar and a test to grade in the class I'm TAing.

This week is going to feature lots of bread. I made sandwich bread today and I'm out of challah so planning to make some this Friday afternoon.
