Then we took nap for an hour or so to digest, and we had coffee and a little bit of chocolate for dessert. Ken, I am jealous of all of your cabbage variety. I’m just shredding red cabbage and mixing it with parsley, blue cheese, and roasted walnuts with a garlic vinaigrette. My wife is at work at the psych ward and is feeding cheesy grits to her co-workers (we are, after all, in the American South.) In the mean time, our F is going to exceed Keith’s C so I’m going to go out for a chilly bicycle ride. I’ll wear red and green in honor of the season. Bringing this back to something vaguely design related: Sometime during the day, I’ll raise a glass to Thomas Nast, the man who invented Santa Claus (or, at least, his American visible manifestation.) I don’t know if it’s just the US that makes a controversy out of well wishes but in deference to the many solstice-adjacent celebrations, I will quote a sign I saw and wish everybody a merry whatever doesn’t make you mad.
