Tonight, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mckitterick is substitute teaching for a friend's ENGL 362 class, and as of the weekend, the CSSF summer activities are in full swing. So yesterday was our last quiet evening together for nearly a month. I splurged at the cheese and olive bar at the grocery store to serve a spread of wine, cheese, bread, cherries, strawberries, guava paste and white cheddar--a whole table of yum. It was delicious, and we got to enjoy a bonus of the flash and rumble of a thunderstorm that never quite coalesced. Although it did rain on us when we tried to enjoy the show outside.
In a completely inappropriate coincidence, my copy of Beyond the 120-Year Diet arrived through inter-library loan yesterday. I'm already well into it and it's interesting. I think Walford's trash-talking of other diets is unnecessary, but his examples of experiment after experiment are convincing. If nothing else, I'm intrigued by the examples that show minimized bone-density loss in long-lived mammals on a CRON diet. The experiments that show mammals on a CRON diet are also less susceptible to heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and cataracts (cataracts? WTF) are pretty spiff, too.
I woke up a few minutes after 4:00 a.m. this morning. Yay.
