better living through chemistry

Today I was treated to a great lunch at Blue Nile Cafe, complete with fresh-brewed Ethiopian coffee from a contraption that made me feel like I was back in 10th grade chemistry class. It was strong, but so smooth that we drank it black. Perfect! (The manufacturer's site proclaims, "No coffee, no pals." Indeed.)
Then we picked up some fresh fruit & veggies at the farmer's market and toured the Steamboat Arabia museum. Highlights of the video: one of the treasure hunters ate 100+ year old pickles. And the guys' wives apparently "started talking to them again" when they started uncovering the treasure. Gotta love explorers with a sense of humor!
