Nothing much to report, just hanging out in Cambridge/Watertown where it's a balmy 41 degrees. I discovered a charming bakery/cafe/brunch/lunch spot on my way to work that has actual espresso made with a real espresso machine, so things are looking way, way up in that department. Other indie coffee shops in the Cambridge area are tiny and usually packed to the gills with students, so there are not a lot of places to go and just hang out. No grocery stores in the vicinity stock my favorite cheezy poofs (Barbara's white cheddar) so I took matters into my own hands and ordered a case from Amazon (see results above!). Yes, I ordered food from Amazon.com. It has come this.I attended the Head of the Charles Regatta in October, hoping to root for the University of Washington team, but I didn't see them. I did see a guy fall into the river though. Brr.
My folks visited me in early November, when the colors were still going strong in the neighborhood. This is my mom and I standing along the Charles River path in Watertown.Today I walked from Harvard Square to Porter Square and stopped in at a DIY craft fair in an elementary school off Mass Ave. It was kind of like the Cherrywood Art/Craft Show in Austin at Maplewood Elementary that I used to go to. There were some cool hand-inked German botanical prints there that I almost got, but chickened out at the $68/each price tag. I will probably regret that...
I am enjoying sweater weather and looking forward to some snow!
