a somewhat random selection of favorite things
I see these posts all the time on other people's blogs, so. . . here are six of my favorite things! (The number has no significance; it was just how many photos I took before I got bored.)

problem
well, a small one.
There are certain words that for some reason I cannot spell in American English.
1. Catalog. I always type catalogue. Always.
2. Plow. I always use plough.
3. Glamor. Glamour. . . just seems more normal.
I do not have issues with color, license, or any host of other words. . . but those ones throw me.

Linguistic food for thought.
It seems that rice is cheaper than pasta: one bag provides something like 10-12 servings for 70-80 cents, whereas one bag of pasta is 5-6 servings for 40-50 cents.
