Friends

I'm home again, and have managed (at long last) to catch up, as much as I am going to, with the volume of writing you people put out.

I have food porn to write, general life stuff to prattle on, and some political gestalt to wring out of my catching up.

I am amused to find out that soldiergrrrl has a copy of a dyptych icon which a dear friend gave me before I went to basic training. She packs it with her everywhere she goes in Iraq.

More touching is this story from another dear friend, soggyoptimist.

The world is a wonderful place.
