This afternoon I made the beets into beet hummus with a side of goat cheese and cooked up the beet greens to put into a couple of quiches that Eric generously made. Then I took everything to work to share.
Completely independently of that, someone brought a beautiful giant tomato from his garden and two other people brought cookies. We had a spontaneous little feast.
I really like my coworkers; they are on the whole kind, smart, and fun to be around. However. I'm glad it's only a few days until I'm not seeing quite so much of them.
