I actually baked a cake over the weekend. And not just any cake, this is a blackberry wine cake. It's not bad. I think Liz stated the flavor best, it kind of tastes like a cobbler.

What you see here is the ultimate in laziness, and I'm talking about my own laziness. If you look carefully, you'll see that the computer on the left looks a little like the computer on the right. I've been setting up the machine on the left to go into a classroom, and just when I think it's ready, more updates pop up that need to be installed. Rather than move my chair over the two feet to do this, I decided to remote in and complete the install. Isn't technology grand?

Some days I feel like I just can't win. I try so hard to bring these teachers into the 21st century, and they still want to use old technology like the overhead projector. What makes this so frustrating is the fully interactive cart right behind it. The document camera would do exactly the same job as the overhead.

Donald and I took a trip to the Farmer's Market this morning, with the sole purpose of buying tomatoes. Several farmers had rows and rows of peppers, in all shapes, sizes and colors.

Liz came home for the weekend and brought Tommy back with her. It didn't take long for him to find a box to sit in.

We're bracing for Irene. The outer bands reached Raleigh this afternoon. Unfortunately, I had to stop at the grocery store, along with everyone else in town. These clouds were over the parking lot.

It seems like everywhere I look, mushrooms are popping up everywhere. This one happens to be in our backyard.
