On an evolutionary scale, the species that were most flexible,
most adaptable to environmental change, survived and thrived.
A supple mind can help us reconcile the external changes going on all around us.

Three Heads Six Arms

So - I finally got a chance to get to Civic Center and see Zhang Huan's colossal sculpture "Three Heads Six Arms." It's gorgeous and stunning - and is perfectly placed across from San Francisco's beautiful Asian Art Museum. The sculpture has caused a bit of a stir here - both because it's been the target of spraypaint taggers and because christians are making a stink saying that if the city erected a three faced, six armed JESUS statue that it would be met with protests and screaming vs. adoration and happiness.

I think it's simply one of the most beautiful sculptures I've ever seen.

Wuv. Twooooooh Wuv....

Moi: Hi Honey!
Dave: Hmmm.
Moi: What time do you think you'll be home for dinner?
Dave: Hmmm-hmmm (toned to sound like "who knows?")
Moi: Any preferences? Halibut? or Pork Chops?
Dave: Pork.
Moi: Love you honey - have a great day.
Dave: Hmmm.
Moi: You aren't used to having me around on weekday mornings are you?
Dave: Nm-Hmm (uh uh)
Moi: You love me anyways right?
Dave: Maybe.
Moi: Hmmm.

Cooking for Two: Recipe #3 - Stuffed Pork Chops with Seared Yam Rounds

Continuing Dave and I's journey through the COOKING FOR TWO COOKBOOK from America's Test Kitchen, tonight was yet another winner.



Brined in a saltwater/brown sugar bath - then stuffed with baguette stuffing with pink lady apple, celery and fresh garlic and herbs - these babies are pan seared to give them a yummy crust then finished in the oven.

D is for delicious.

I served with them with world's easiest side - pan seared yams.
