Learned Today

Two items, in reverse order of importance:

Apparently mothers are determined to be such self-hating suckers that they have fallen for a plastic surgery marketing ploy called the "Mom Job" (this is probably not actually news since it showed up in the New York Times Style section today, but I am, as always, late-- and not fashionably so-- to the party). Anyway, the "Mom Job" is a little collection of surgeries generally involving a tummy tuck, breast lift (implants optional) and liposuction somewhere. I can safely say that I think this is a lousy "trend" if its real, but my ire is muted because I'm much too close to the birth of my second kid to think clearly about my physical state. But if you're in the mood to cringe a bit, I say read this piece and weep.

Also of note is the surprising discovery made this morning that milk behaves the same way with kiwi fruit as it does with citrus. It curdles.
