A nice, quiet dinner...

alexpgpEaster dinner consisted of honey-glazed ham, asparagus (with Drew's Hollandaise), red potatos with rosemary, salad, a few olives, and (for me) a gin-and-tonic.
It was nice to get the mess off the dining room table and have all of us sit down to dinner.
I'm back at the face of the salt mine, now, with a pure tonic chaser to the meal by my side.
The office cleanup is going slowly, although the center of the room is now basically clear. I've got some linen that I throw on the floor whenever I get a moment to host Huntur and we do all sorts of fascinating things. The latest is to play with some Chinese balls that appear to me made of stainless steel and which contain a chime inside.
Called "Baoding Iron Hollow Ball for Health with the brand name of 'The God of Longevity'" by the manufacturer (Hebei Baoding Iron Ball Plant), the intended purpose of the balls is as an exercise device. One holds them first in one hand, and then the other, and causes them to revolve about one another by rhythmically moving one's fingers. I find it's a real workout (whenever I remember to use them), and the rather poorly translated instructions maintain that it's an ideal exercise to support the body's energy.
Huntur just likes rolling them on the floor.
Back to work...
Cheers...
