Toad in the Hole

Pinnacle

We strolled the Solano Stroll today -- it's a street fair along Solano Avenue, a shopping and restaurant strip that runs through a part of Berkeley and a part of Albany, the town next door. We got to see performances by the Emeryville Taiko Dojo, the Royal Hawaiian Ukulele Band, and assorted others -- blues, bellydance, Cajun, brass band, Brazilianish, Japanese strings, Celtic, rock, I forget.

But the high point for me was at the National Center for Science Education booth, where I got to shake Eugenie Scott's hand. Way cool.

I'm sure we did too. It's like one of those huge (but really good) hotel buffets: I know I can't have it all, but I also know I'll find plenty that I like. At least that's how I try to resign myself to missing so much.

I did have to get away from the crowd now and then.
