Avdi and Jess are on their way home across the Midwest.  Here on the home front, I watered the garden, made Asian coconut lime chicken in the slow cooker, plus an Asian stir-fry, baked challah, did some last minute chores, weeded the garden some more, and got ready for Shabbat, and for going “home”.  Where is home, anyway, now I feel more at home here!  Maybe I’ve turned into a “fixture” after all!  Or at least the gardener.
