I first found out about it in a little local San Francisco boutique but it's cheaper online. I used to have a glass tea infuser BUT I managed to break it while washing it and get glass in my sink and dish tub. My boyfriend's secretary managed to break his glass infuser as well, so maybe for tea this BPA plastic is the way to go.0http://jinxlicious.blogspot.com/2011/07/bike-shops-and-mustard-seeds.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)Tue, 19 Jul 2011 18:55:00 -0700tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5549349643707477979.post-9117328062730104250I finally got my bike back from the shop today. It had a broken spoke that put the wheel way out of true so I had to pay $1 for a new spoke and $25 to have it put on. Yeesh. It really has me thinking I need more than just an allen wrench when it comes to bike tools...I could use a bike stand, a wheel truing stand and a spoke wrenchy thing for a start. And maybe a spiral bound book on how to fix 0http://jinxlicious.blogspot.com/2011/07/garden-pottery-and-biking.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)Sun, 17 Jul 2011 19:26:00 -0700tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5549349643707477979.post-7190867250433327376I'm reading a book right now about how we're all way too connected digitally to each other ALL THE FREAKING TIME and I need to finish it, review it, read another book and review that one ASAP, so I thought I'd procrastinate and write a blog post. Since a year and a half has gone by, I have both very little and a frigging lot to say. I'll just summarize a few things for now... 1.

Seems like they should be ready to go from the 2009 crop of tomatoes and so I should get the best selection now instead of waiting a month or so, and we want to try starting from seed which we can do fairly early here in the 0http://jinxlicious.blogspot.com/2009/10/if-youre-looking-for-theretherebucks.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)Thu, 22 Oct 2009 00:42:00 -0700tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5549349643707477979.post-3099743627585211079I know I haven't posted here for a while.

TheRoom: We stayed at TheHotel and it was pretty nice, or at least as nice as a 3000 room hotel can be.
