In New Hampshire right now for a wedding on Saturday in Sugar Hill. My mom took us to Mexican food today at La Carreta, in a strip mall in Manchester. It was better than anything I've had in NY in a long time. Nothing was smothered in cheese and the margarita was huge but not too strong. I also had my first manicure, at K and T Nails, also in the same strip mall. It was really relaxing. The guy massaged my forearms and I just wanted to slump over in the seat and go to sleep. I think I might try Bloomienails when I get back, mostly because I just like the name.

So a morningdove has made a nest in my mom's garage and it is just the cutest thing. You can see a little baby morningdove sticking it's head out of the top of the nest. There is a broken egg on the floor of the garage. I'm kind of afraid it will peck my eyes out or something when I get out of the car, but it doesn't make a move. Apparently this is the second dove to use the nest. My mom was going to get rid of it after the first one had it's babies and flew off, but before she knew it the nest was occupied again.

I recommend reading Ambulance Girl by Jane Stern.
