Ivo's gonna try quinoa!

Half the house is organized. The other half is not without hope, but let's just say, it's in process.

Ivo and Ryan are out for a(nother) walk, leaving me free to rest and read online papers. Neat story from NYTimes about intersex people, neat story in the NYObserver about memoirists, addiction and AA. Feeling great and relaxed and better get dinner going!!!!

Oh yea, quinoa has tons of calcium and all the amino acids a guy could want. Like almost everything great to eat (except ice cream) it's from the Andes. I hope Ivo likes it.

The pics of Ivo reflected were taken at one of my favorite dumpling places this week. The pics outside and with pebbles (dirtiest pebbles in the world) were taken on Soho Street, Taichung on 9/22. Dinosaur Ivo was taken in the morning of 9/22. We ate at Salut Pizza and Ivo ran around like he hadn't spent the whole day at the museum and park! Ivo's been working on his bottom incisors and it's painful - so he's been a little cranky/moody. He really wanted to be happy at the museum - but he just couldn't pull it off!
