A Date With Cheese

Yesterday we went swimming, had another crack at surfing, and saw some astonishing fish before running to the lighthouse. We adjourned to the theater to see the Lorax (one of the best pixar films yet). Today Karen went to work, then ate sushi takeaway on the beach. Ben went running in the rainforest. We planned by telephone, divided the grocery stores, and met back at home with ingredients to make apple pie. We stuffed dates with double Brie as an appetizer (we've been talking about it for weeks), carved palm fronds on the deck while the pie baked, and ate apple pie for dinner. Now we are going to Buddha Bar for chess and beer, and good live music. Life is sweet.
