Slept in. Breakfast at home: half order of granola with unsweetened soy milk. More CrashPlan computer-to-computer connection troubleshooting and other maintenance for Patrick's computer. Lunch: leftover couscous salad, water. Place and order with Bi Rite Grocery via instacart for various ice creams and wine. They delivered in under one hour—I am amazed. First order delivery was free. (A referral link is on my Google Plus page.) Walked to get some exercise. Bought frozen dumplings at the Kingdom of Dumpling shop now at 2048 Taraval instead of on Noriega. Dinner at home with Patrick: dumplings: egg and chive, pork and shrimp with chive, chicken and napa, various dipping sauces, red wine. Tried watching PBS's The Great British Baking Show as recommended by (I think) Susie but it wasn't available online. Since we have no television there's no way we can watch it. Too bad for them. Instead we watched season 1 episode 2 of Chef's Table on Netflix instant watch and ate popcorn sprinkled with Cabot Cheddar Shake, a powdered cheese that surprisingly has decently good ingredients. Afterwards I spilled a glass of red wine, and Patrick and I cleaned it together: two parts hydrogen peroxide with one part dishwashing soap, according to Google. That seemed to work pretty well.
