Down To Earth

Day 2 Paul: “Put de lime in de coconut, and drink ‘em both up.”

In the words of Ice Cube, it was a good day. However, as Becky and Bart expressed, it did not take a turn for the fancy. Anthony Bourdain, I am not. I blame expediency in culinary undertakings this week. But I stole an idea from Monique in purchasing wraps from DeLeon which works nicely with Small Planet Tofu. Then, a soggy ride from work to the well-attended ribbon cutting with Mayor Mary Verner at the Main Market Co-op. Jim Sheehan of the Community Building and market founder Jennifer Hall spoke. And poet Joy Harjo read passionately from “Perhaps the World Ends Here,” also carved in the community table.

Breakfast: Same as yesterday but with potatoes. Why not? I like to cook a hearty breakfast.

Lunch: Two tofu wraps in lettuce, Bumble Bar, and an apple from the Main Market co-op. I miss Bart and Sara's homemade salsa which would be a nice addition.

Dinner: A big salad with a variety of Main Market veggies plus tofu. Glass of Spokane Family Farms Milk. And then Zzzzz.



Defense is usually the best offense so I’m listening to Harry Nilsson. Then I realize a common thread to his album titles: Nilsson Schmilsson, Son Of Schmilsson, A Little Touch Of Schmilsson In The Night, Knnilsson and, finally giving fans what they really were waiting for, A Touch More Schmilsson In The Night.


Does Remi Schmolson know about this?
