Hmm, finding a vegetarian Indian dish to make for dinner from scratch (which doesn't require a lot of ingredients I don't have and time) is an interesting challenge 🤔

Thus, why Indian restaurants and grocery stores here with takeout counters are appealing, LOL.

Seeking eggplant recipe ideas, as I have one limp eggplant in the fridge and 8 eggplants growing in hydroponics (which may produce a massive amount of eggplant).

So far my repertoire includes 2 dishes:

  1. Eggplant Parmesan (Italian)
  2. Eggplant in Garlic Sauce (Chinese)

(the family hates eggplant, except me, so we never eat it 🤔 )

Mystery plant of the day. (update: this is most certainly horseweed!)

25 feet tall! Agave appears to be preparing to bloom. I wonder if I could turn this into a radio antenna.

Achievement unlocked. Went to the farmer's market on a combo of bus and bike. Learned many lessons...

ai6yr, to EPCOT

What does it mean when most of the plants featured at Epcot's "The Land" are in my backyard? (most being grown in hydroponics) 🤔

(I don't think I can get a floating water ride back there, though).

ai6yr, to cycling

Checked off the list. Hauled a bunch of books home via cargo rack (lesson: pack a canvas bag in the backpack).

Little Free Library on a post! Hopefully won't get too much friendly fire from the family, LOL. (Starting to add books).

Getting play by play from the local airport pickup driver I hired to pick up the relatives, LOL. Crossing fingers this goes well.

ai6yr, to movies

Saw "The Beekeeper" with Jason Statham. There could not be a more awesome movie!

  1. Beekeeping!
  2. Old pickup truck!
  3. Woodworking tools!
  4. Anti-crypto/NFT
  5. Plot could have come from a drunk version of my beekeeping toots about replacing a queen
  6. Cybercriminals get their just desserts
  7. Hero is a nice guy
  8. Beekeeper as the hero

(It brought tears to my eyes, truly).

Ended up going to Florida and back for a graduation (with a brief stop at Epcot since we were there).

Epcot when we were kids: A taste of culture! Innovation! Live street performers! Music! Food! THE FUTURE!

Epcot today: Day Drinker's Paradise (with Official "Drinking Around The World" T-Shirts).

Ran some errands by bicycle today... surprised how easy it actually is to get to the store here without running into ANY traffic, if you know the back route. A lot more people could bicycle to the store, if there were a culture change (living in car-driven SoCal).

My neighbor (who hates bees, rabbits, coyotes, and all insects in her yard -- and has replaced their lawn with plastic) has a "Welcome Spring" sign up. 🤔

ai6yr, to books

Ha! Someone planted a banned book in my Not-A-Trademark-Registered-Library. Do you know which one?

I am unsure if this is click bait (outrage baiting?) or is CNBC trying to make their wealthy readers feel good? 🤔

Dang, I missed my opportunity to get a fully automated robot farm.
