Correction to Miss Pudding's comments. They will be eating sushi. I will be eating pizza. That's an exotic international dish that has been properly homoginized by the US, broken down into its main components and allowed to become virtually the same, no matter where you get it. Added bonus? It makes you dizzy as the plaque clogs a major artery.

Biking Update
Young Matilda, fresh from her triumph from running the mile in under three days in first grade, biked three miles today. It was her first non-neighborhood trip and she performed like a trooper. She still refuses to wear her helmet properly, but that's nothing some Crazy Glue and some carpet tacks wont fix.
