My brother’s college graduation is tomorrow. I cannot believe it. I’m so proud of him. He’s graduating with a BFA in Sculpture. I know he will go on to do great things.
^^ Me & Rob. Summer of 1990? Maybe ’91? ^^
^^ Thanksgiving 2005, I think. No idea what’s with the weird faces. Ignore the bangs I am growing out. ^^
^^ July, 2010 – wedding day. ^^
I’ll make sure to take one tomorrow and update this post with it. I wish I had access right now to more of the pictures our parents took of us growing up. There are so many albums but they are all in NJ.

This is one of my favorite quotes.
“With malice towards none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right… let us strive… to do all which may achieve and cherish a just, and a lasting peace, among ourselves, and with all nations.”
–Abraham Lincoln, Second Inaugural Address, Saturday, March 4, 1865

I just found this very insightful nugget:
The really important kind of freedom involves attention, and awareness, and discipline, and effort, and being able truly to care about other people and to sacrifice for them, over and over, in myriad petty little unsexy ways, every day.
From a fantastic article in the WSJ.
Guess what these are?
They are steamed beets from my dad’s garden. Tender, sweet, and fresh. The best kind of beets, I think. I’ve never had better. I like eating them plain or topped with yogurt, or in a sandwich. I’ll post the sandwich later.
What’s your favorite way to eat beets? What’s your favorite quote or nugget of wisdom?
