Got to hang out with my CW 06 classmates Tina and Tina this weekend. Pictures on Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/78523822@N00/sets/72157600481434273/). Highlights included:
– meeting the Clarion West 07 crowd
– delicious cheesy biscuits, courtesy of 2na.
– strawberry picking (and eating)
– pretty Birch Bay beaches
– ferry ride (complete with harbor seals, eagles, herons and baby sea gulls)
– baked french toast, courtesy of T1na.
– Sushi…where I discovered that I actually like sake. (It’s sweeter than I thought.)
So, good company, tasty food, fun outdoorsy stuff….and 0 words written for the last 4 days.
This week’s write-a-thon goal: Chapter 2 on the novel.
In general, the “cloudy” sake is sweeter – that is the unfiltered kind. I tend to prefer the unfiltered sweet kind to the not-sweet filtered (and visually clear) kind… It will say on the bottle which kind it is…
in case you go look for other sakes to try now :)

Huh. Good to know. And I’ll be in Japan later this summer, so I’ll certainly want to try some other sakes :)
Goddamnit!
I got to hang out with Becca and Paul Park at the SF in SF reading! :D
