Tasty noms!

Mind you, I'm craving crappy chocolate like crazy, being not far from Halloween. But this morning I made use of our enthusiastic kale plants to make a kale salad that _wasn't_ unpleasantly textured.

See, it occurred to me that kale probably gets denatured by lemon juice just like meats do, so I asked google if this was true, and came up with the first recipe on this page: http://www.thepauperedchef.com/article/three-more-interesting-ways-cook-kale.

Adjusted it a bit to account for things we actually had (roasted, salted pepitas instead of pine nuts, and just lemon juice without zest), and other than possibly using too much lemon juice, I think it turned out nicely.

Kale salad for the win!

Darn you DST!

I felt pretty good when I got up this morning, but I'm feeling more and more off today. I hate jet lag, especially when it's not the result of traveling!

And, of course, tonight is the lab I run, which ends at 9p. Or, y'know, 10p old time.

Considering going for a walk so I can focus on things, before my office hours start.
