So good and so easy.
With wheat flour it is even better.

I know it’s time for my Moxie appointment when my sideburns start to curl and it feels like i have a wet furby on my head after I run.

New Device

I was talking about the interview with Eric Wright, our online producer, and we compared notes. He actually might receive more e-mail than I do. Sometimes, he said, he’ll have as many as 30 or so on his Blackberry by the time he wakes up in the morning.

The Beast from Cooter’s Pond Cyclocross Race
