At home today recovering from surgery. Slept in. Two strange power anomalies occurred this morning. One was a brownout that lasted a second. The other was a 2-second power surge that instantly shut my Mac off even though my UPS was working properly (which I confirmed by testing it afterwards). It doesn't look particularly windy outside, so I presume this to be a temporary PG&E problem. Brunch: one banana, one sliced red deicious apple, one 8-ounce glass of fresh-squeezed orange juice. Snack: one chocolate-covered cherry, organic yellow tortilla chips, one everything bagel (from frozen) with cream cheese. Midafternoon meal: leftover macaroni with stir-fried broccoli, red bell pepper, and garlic in an almond-cheese sauce with fresh, organic dill. The almond came from using almond milk. The dish was edible but I probably wouldn't use almond milk again. Late dinner at home with Will: Newman's Own thin crust margherita pizza. Dessert: one each TJ's chocolate chunk cookie.
