very brief asides

• It's a lot easier to relax in the moment when you're not wasting valuable brain cycles trying to remember all the moments that are coming up.
  
  
• Facebook shrinks the world, exponentially.
  
  
• Okra should be deep fried, not boiled (via geekchick, who sides with me on the contentious issue of sugar's place in cornbread :P).

I hadn't heard of pumpkin cornbread either, until I purchased a grains cookbook published in San Francisco (so definitely not north-of-the-border) ... that's the only place I've ever seen that combination. 'tis yummy though. :-)

P.S. The cornbread of my childhood was a non-sweet variety, traditionally served as an accompaniment to sausage or sausage-based dishes, so was presumably as close to southern-style as any Canuck version can be. ;p
