Dog Days Arcana

A few things that have caught my fancy this week…

 

 

 

First — Elizabeth Renzetti’s marvellous G&M article about one of my writing heroes — PD James, who has just turned 90. [the pic is by Randy Quan for the Globe].

 

 

 

 

Next, via boingboing, here’s a look at the incredible new pencil that Sharpie is premiering this fall. It’s got a liquid output — graphite — and is erasable for three days before it becomes permanent. Is this not cool?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Finally — and caveat emptor on this one, because I haven’t actually tried it yet — but as a long-term vegetarian, the thought of carrot bacon is pretty darn tempting… More pix HERE.

 

 

 

 

More soon…

  1. the article about PD was almost overshadowed by the bitch-slapping going on between oldgal167 and Leo in the comments there… The carrot bacon recipe works and is completely free of any nutritional value, which makes it one of the major food groups …. yummmmmmmmm

  3. Widdershins — too true! Unfortunately, by the time I went back to look, some of the comments had been taken down. Amusing, nonetheless!~kc
