The ordinary palmier
I bought the last palmier at Ken's Artisan Bakery today. It didn't have "eat me" written on it, except of course figuratively.
The sun came out, the temperature rose, and I neither shrank nor grew as I ate the palmier at my bus stop. The bus back downtown was late and crowded. I got off several blocks early and stopped in my walk to listen to a drummer making wonderful sounds on two five-gallon plastic buckets.
It was the newspaper headlines that seemed like something the hookah dragged in. Condi is confirmed as the nation's most senior statesperson. Some dark-souled suicide in a Jeep kills dozens by causing a trainwreck after changing his mind. The religious right accuses Democratic senators of prejudice. President Bush says, "When I said 'ending tyranny' I didn't mean 'ending tyranny.' I sort of meant 'America should beat the crap out of everyone else in the world,' kind of."
But damn, that palmier was good.
