Coat rack
This is like the 10th different combination placement of the clothes racks. Each time there is some benefit to the new placement. Not sure if I’m missing disadvantages – but I think the changed life patterns make the previous disadvantage less salient, leading to the decision for the change.

Eggplant Fries
I’ve been very sick with cold these past 2 weeks. After a particularly bad night trying to breathe well while sleeping and also with an ear infection, I went to One More Kitchen to sit under the sun during the afternoon.
They have new menu items!
But after taking a look, I picked Pork Avocado Salad. Again they don’t have it – I think I’ve never seen them have the ingredients on hand to make that salad for the past 3 months.
So I asked the waiter about eggplant fries.
- What does it have?
- It’s eggplant.. and fries
- So just an eggplant and (potato) fries? That’s it?
- Oh no.. the eggplant is fried, and there’s a tomato sauce on top.
That waiter really undersold it because this is what I got. The crunchy fried eggplant is merely the base, and they have an entire pizza beat party going on with their tomato sauce, corn, bean sprouts and mayo on top.
I was in a lot of throat and ear pain today, but this fun dish (plus the sunlight) made up for all of it at once.
