We didn’t have time to do everything yesterday, so we went again today. We were all very tired from yesterday, so we didn’t have as good a time. Still, Bean handled a shoulder-fired antitank grenade and I bonded with a cow (and was seriously tempted to trade the cow for the child).

Everything you can imagine, in a tin
My dad would be in canned food heaven right now. We went grocery shopping in France, and it’s always astonishing to see how different the choices are. In this picture, you’ll notice tins of:
- Canard mitonné
- Blanquette de veau
- Lapin rôti à la moutarde
- Tartiflette
- Choucroute garnie
- Cassoulet
- Poulet basquaise
- Boeuf bourguignon
Now, of course, it will never compare to the British pie-in-a-tin experience we gave him once, but I did make note of a few things to send back to him when my mom comes.
My 1st app!

I’ve made my 1st Android app! It allows me to log in to my favourite online fiction website and download stories to my phone as ebooks. It’s crude and rough around the edges, but I’ve gone from nothing to working in a couple of days. Now I just need to polish it up and add some bells and whistles.

We’d never have had Star Trek cosplay porn.
