Who says we don’t have fall color in Houston? It’s true, our seasons are usually limited to Hurricane and Football, which can overlap, but Ma Nature does her thing, no matter what.

We’ve had a drought here in Southeast Texas for several months, but finally got enough rain over the last week to cause the epiphitic ferns to go nuts.

If you’re in Houston, go to MFAH and experience this otherworldly show by A A Murakami, a duo from New York and London. This was just one of the installations, a smoke ring generating wall. All of the artscapes are comments on impermanence.

It was a rainy day so I decided to bake bread. Turned out delicious: whole wheat flour/white bread flour/rye/rolled oats/flax seed/sunflower seed, with some sesame seeds on top. One great thing about making bread is that there are long periods of time to do other stuff too. #Breadbaking
