Well, I haven't eaten yet, but this is what I brought to work, and I'll eat
in about three hours:

Stir-fried thinly-sliced sirloin with onions, FAT asparagus, oyster sauce,
soy sauce, black pepper, and ginger, finished with a slurry of dry sherry,
water, and cornstarch. I also brought plain steamed white rice. To drink, I
have iced "Tea of Inquiry," which is a blend of green tea and toasted brown
rice husks. I brought a navel orange for dessert, but my expectations are
low; the last one I had was juiceless and flavorless. Soon -- SOON! -- there
will be cherries.

Speaking of cherries, did anybody else notice that Harry & David stopped
carrying Rainier cherries? Or at least they're not offering them THIS year.
I was very disappointed at that.
