**DRAT**
I meant to go to meet with Peter Beagle after his appearance at the Arboretum B&N. Went completely out of my head. I did, however, get enough paperwork picked up that I can dig out the final papers for taxes. I hate waiting this long, but it was wait or wipe myself out again.
I sure hope the entire FACT group did not also space that it's Tuesday, and it's Peter Beagle Day....
Did make it to dinner with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
marthawells, morfin, atcampbell and their friends R&PB last Saturday night. It was great to see everyone, and meet R&P properly. Poor AT had the "allergies are going to kill me, give me more drugs" look, and we broke up early so they could get him some place he could lie down.
Other than that, I am trying to space out the special cooking to one or two things a day. It doesn't tire me as much. Today I can report that a fruit mix of gala apples and plums with a touch of maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and tapioca root starch as a thickener makes a great fruit mix for a crisp or on cereal. (I'm supposed to eat things cooked, not raw, right now. TLC for the body.) Also -- the beef, sweet potato, carrot, onion and rutabaga stew was so good, made with Imagine organic beef-flavored broth (actually containing beef broth!) that I didn't even season it. It needed nothing.
CORRECTION: I used a turnip, not a rutabaga. It was white with a lavender belt. Shades of Jillian Footseer....
Leftover cubes of sweet potato were cooked with a couple of fat shallots and a drizzle of maple sugar, and sprinkled with sea salt at the past. Awecome. It made two servings, and I also used it tonight with brown short and basmati rice, black-eyed peas and hummus on an Ezekiel burrito tortilla.
I should not even have to tell you how wonderful THAT was....

It wasn't busy so we chatted a while, and he signed my anniversary edition of The Last Unicorn. (Don't know how I'd missed that wonderful story before.)

I'll just have to hope that we cross at another convention. And get the DVD before then.
The book is wonderful, even if my Ex didn't get it. ;^)

Missed you.
Baaa, hum bug!
