Almost forgot in my post-CP excitement:

I HAVE A MONARCH CATERPILLAR ON MY MILKWEED!!!

He's tiny-tiny, less than a quarter-inch long, but you can see his little black, orange, and white bands as clear as anything.

As of today, The Green Goddess officially has its liquor license! Swing by 307 Exchange Alley and have a Green Fuse, a Sultan's Dream, or one of their many other delicious specialty cocktails to celebrate. If you do not imbibe of the grain and the grape, they have lots of virgin cocktails too.

Me, I'm off to eat "transparency of raspberry and yogurt" and "black truffle explosion," along with twenty-one other tiny fabulous things.
