11/8: Sappho

I'm preparing materials for a dinner/reading tomorrow focused on Sappho's poetry.  I appreciate having an excuse to spend time with her words.

11/7: enforcing a time-out

Work was crazy and I was feeling crazed by the time I got home.  Chris suggested we go to the Indian restaurant for dinner, and though I had plenty of work still to do in the evening it was so good to take the time to pause and talk and regroup.

11/6: Aesop

Next week we'll starting translating Aesop's fables in my Greek class, and I enjoyed preparing some materials today, formatting passages and making vocabulary lists for the students.

11/5: hearing

...the Greek students' second round of thoughts about the narrative techniques of the Book of Revelation.

11/4: little donuts

...that Chris bought.

11/3: new to us places

...in Heber Springs:  Bridal Veil Falls and the Collins Creek trail.

11/2: getting ready

...for another round of Greek manuscript reading with my class on Monday.  I loved spending some of my lunchtime working through it.

11/1: this afternoon

A successful trial run of making vegetarian "caviar" with black lentils.

And some lovely autumn colors in the yard:
