The Project Moves Along

Posted on by

Our project took a huge leap forward tonight with the unanimous approval by the Planning
Commission of the project as presented. Bill Araluce, our architect did a good job
of allaying any concerns the commission members had. 3 of the 4 members had ‘concerns’
about the size of the project, echoing the lone dissenter on the ARB. (Bill thought
that at least one member may have been previously approached by the lone dissenter.)
Bill made our presentation and answered all of their questions and detailed our use
of the city’s general plan as guidance in developing the property.

Bill will now draw up working drawings and submit them to the city as the basis for
the building permits. Then he estimates the city takes 5-6 weeks to issue permits.

Thank you, God.

The Flesh Of Beasts

Posted on by

Baby Weezy has tasted of the flesh of beasts (well, at this point only fowl) and is
hooked. Last week, I cut up little cubes of chicken and placed the first one into
her mouth. She rolled it around in there, seemingly unsure of what to do with it.
Then she started gumming it. In no time, she had scooped up all the pieces I cut for
her. She really likes the chicken and turkey pieces that we have given her. At the
same time (related?, I don’t know) she is getting more picky about the pureed food
that we give her. Broccoli and Asparagus used to be consumed with the same enthusiasm
as plums and pears. Lately, she has balked at the veggies after a few bites and signals
us with her own brand of signing ‘All Done’. If we wait a couple of minutes and try
again, she will sometimes eat more. Finally, if she hasn’t finished the bowl off,
we will pour some applesauce on top and co-mingle the foods.

I mean who wouldn’t want to have a bowl of broccoli and carrots mixed with plain
yogurt, tofu and ground flax seed?
