So, one of the (many) things I miss about the SF bay area are the artichokes. Not that artichokes aren't available elsewhere, of course, but only in the bay area did I get to enjoy huge, fresh, perfect artichokes for prices like 3/$1.

Up here in the slightly chillier northwest, what I get are small or medium-sized, slightly tough, often frost-spotted, but still fairly tasty artichokes for prices like $3.99 apiece.

On the other hand, since erev_rav doesn't have quite the same obsessive relationship to this particular produce as I have, I can buy one and eat THE WHOLE THING ALL BY MYSELF!

Which, today, was totally worth the $3.99.

Thanks for letting us use your bed! I'm sorry we didn't get to see you.

I hope you're feeling better.

Rar! Must find artichokes. Though... at $3.99... ouch.
