SF food news - the Ferry Building market is opening in July, with the markets moving over there sooner. I'm so happy.

Karissa Cove's site Crackers + Honey, is finally all done! This is where I got the I'm Foxy And Crafty apron, which is also sold in the Bust shop Boobtique*. You can also read her first zine on the site too. The first I heard about Crackers + Honey was from the (dearly missed) Dangerous Chunky**. * I'm not linking to it because it appears to be throwing an infinite amount of security alerts. ** I think, I can't find the entry now.

Oh gosh, I just realized tomorrow is Easter. I didn't know. I mean I knew, I just wasn't paying attention to dates and look, here it is! Easter! I have no plans, except to get to the grocery store today so that we aren't out of frozen pizza tomorrow. I love Easter because I love hidden things.When I was young Easter Egg hunts would set me off on one of those uncontrollably giddy manic things. I used to get up early to find my Easter basket, always disappointed if I found it early. I think we should take to hiding Christmas stockings and Halloween candy as well.

Am I the only one who absolutely cannot wear flip flops? (Or any shoe which goes between the toes.) I have such flip flop envy.

I have a few airplane trips coming up. I am a miserable air traveler. I'm not afraid of planes or flying, I just hate everything about air travel. So, I'm gathering a few things to distract myself and make me more comfortable. I got a Pocket Size Back Relax, a folding footrest since my feet will never touch the floor while sitting in regular chairs, making sitting for the duration of a flight very uncomfortable. And I'm going to rent a DVD player from InMotion Pictures, luckily both airports have InMotion kiosks. Has anyone done the InMotion thing? How was it?

Last night I had an online Garage Sale in order to get rid of some stuff, and raise a little money for upkeep of this here website. I was amazed and pleased (and running around like crazy) with the speed at which the orders came in. I want to thank everyone that snagged some stuff, and let everyone else know I'll probably be having another one soon (I'll give a bit of advance notice next time, I realize that kicking something off at 6 p.m. my time is kind of late for those in New York). I'm off to calculate shipping. If you have an order still in the works, feel free to email me document.write('garagesale@' + 'megan.' + 'scatterbrain.' + 'org' + '') -- and the Secret Page is still there.

In the May Real Simple, the New Uses For Old Things section suggests using a battery-operated toothbrush for "Scouring tile crevices, bathroom fixtures, and other hard-to-reach corners." I just happened to be thoroughly cleaning my tiled shower cubicle this weekend and I just happened to have a pre-Sonicare era Crest Spinbrush in the closet. While I cannot say it made my job faster, I can say it made it more fun.

Two movies I must remember to go see: Bend It Like Beckham [warning: Flash] and Better Luck Tomorrow
