You know what, let's just start with the food.
1. Question for Camberville/Boston people with experience with restaurants and celiac and/or needing to eat GF: have a friend with celiac coming to town in a couple of weeks. We're looking for a Sunday brunch (cuisine is flexible within the bounds of being celiac-friendly, she was quite adventurous foodwise pre-diagnosis) that is T-accessible, can handle a group of ~6-8 people, and takes reservations - does this exist or am I questing after a unicorn? Our current plan is the Friendly Toast, but apparently they don't take reservations, and even though we're planning to get there around 10, sounds like typical wait for our size party around that time would be ~45 minutes, and I'm like, "there's got to be a better way" ;)
2. This week has been Passover; per usual,
the boy has been consuming far more matzah than me. I just make cookies, including coconut chocolate chip meringues and these cashew-cinnamon crisps:

the season premiere is free to download on iTunes for now; if not, it debuts tomorrow morning on NICK. Giving Apple and Nickelodeon my $30 for season 1 posthaste, given we ditched most cable awhile back.
But that doesn't even get into the awesomeness of a female Avatar, confident and adventurous, and a more modern world. I do hope we get more good female characters in the mix soon
Sidebar: anybody else getting slight Zanarkand vibes? Okay, maybe it's just me wanting Korra and Mako and Bolin and Tidus and Wakka to all go out drinking together, get up to shenanigans, and then Lin Bei Fong comes along and shakes them all down. Mannnnnnn.
4. I also made
chocolate olive oil mousse so that

hyounpark and I would have a yummy dessert to eat while we were watching The Amazing Race succumb to trainwreckiness.
Ugh, TAR, I watch you because most of the time you *don't* pull this bullshit. For a show that's supposed to be 40-45 minutes in viewing length, I should not be able to watch an episode in under 20 minutes because I keep having to fastforward past all the dramallama. With six teams left, I should not actively dislike four of them.
5. Is it time for more Korra yet? Is it?
