Breakfast: one blueberry muffin, one cherry-marzipan turnover, both heated; hot water; milk. This morning Patrick made a new creation with apple, butterscotch, and pecans. He calls it a cross between rugelach and baklava. Midmorning we each ate one—yummy! Physical therapy exercises to treat a minor back issue. Lunch: quarter leftover mushroom quesadilla, TJ's cherry-pistachio-pecan granola with blueberries and milk, hot water. Evaluated Wyrmwood's Modular Sit-Stand Desk. Made some technology purchases. Emptied the dishwasher. Dinner at home with Patrick: delivery from Lers Ros via DoorDash: fried rolls, pad see-ew, garlic rice with crispy chicken, vegetarian yellow curry, jasmine steamed rice, two thai iced teas. Afterwards I cleaned the kitchen then set up a new Apple TV 4K. We had been holding out for over a year in anticipation of a new model, but the latest news seems to indicate that it's not going to come until September 2026. Setup was easy with the One Home Screen option. We watched 4K demos on YouTube then Pluribus s1:e4 on Apple TV then YouTube. Patrick went to bed. I cleaned the kitchen and watched YouTube. To bed late.
