everyday flotsam
Sometimes it's easy to get wrapped up in virtual. And forget that every day there is a beach only five minutes away. Strewn with cool stuff that came from somewhere else.

xkcd
Geek heaven. XKCD makes Dilbert seem like a boring engineer.
And not just tech geek jokes. Maths geek, physics geek, science geek, and more. Link from the cartoon. I can't believe I only discovered him now.

In which we play with our food, or: eggy bread goes pretentious

Fargo Trading
Basmati, borrie (turmeric), curry leaves, fresh & dry coriander, cinnamon, coconut milk, dried shitake. Underneath and not visible: moong dal, large green lentils, black-eye beans, cous cous, whole jeera (cumin), chana flour. Not only can money buy happiness, but happiness is cheap. Around R300 for this lot (yup kids, that's less than US$45). These days Fargo Trading even have bar-code scanners and take credit cards.
