Bread of Heaven or Wines of Light

I have so much to say and so little time to sit and type.  Chainsaws & yoga.  Master of the Jinn and Blue-Eyed Devil are both delightful, though in rather different ways.  (Thanks to Irving, Baraka Bob, and Mikail El.)  We have dandelion wine brewing.  Getting the garden cleared and planted.
