Lots of frustration today working on an essay that is falling flat, but I took off after lunch for a stroll. When in doubt, seek out the flowers. I returned a few library books, then went to the Mexican market for tortillas. Another glorious autumn afternoon. I think it went up to 17C today. Sweater and shorts combo weather.

The big news is that I picked a ripe, red sweet pepper for supper today. They are small. I don't think I got more than two tablespoons of flesh from one fruit, but it tasted good. It's tough to grow peppers and tomatoes in this climate, on a west facing balcony. They really need a greenhouse here. So I'm thrilled with what we got this year.
