My paternal grandmother started me drinking tea when I was about the age
of Barb's granddaughter, according to my mother. This was in spite of
the fact that both paternal grandparents were heavy coffee drinkers. I
have never acquired the taste for coffee, as much as the SO has tried.
I love the smell of coffee (probably a vestige of childhood), but can't
get the stuff past my lips unless it's Vietnamese iced coffee.

Yesterday I had yogurt and toast for breakfast, and an omelet for lunch.
Last night was the neighborhood Latkepalooza, in honor of the last night
of Hanukkah. White and sweet potato latkes with salad, and cake I made
with some leftover key limes.
