The review that made me seek it out –

I just met a seemingly normal, music-aware person who had no idea who David Bowie is.  The guy was maybe 30–35 years old.

Yesterday, Mrs. Bear and I made “memory bottles”—basically, swirly glitter in a colored liquid that allows it to swirl around and look pretty.

Mine was a blue liquid with purple, to represent our first in-person meeting in front of the blue crab stained-glass sculpture at Baltimore Airport.

Hers was black liquid filled with orange glitter to represent our boys, Pyewacket and Newton.

Today was spent puttering and shopping. We visited a jewelry pop-up at Sycamore, got some lovely squash and zucchini at the farm, sweets, and bread at the bakery, then picked up a few treats for MIL at the vintage store in preparation for her Mother’s Day visit tomorrow.

Ratatouille for late dinner tonight!

Just a couple of Pearl squeaks.
