I also have cherries, apricots, and blueberries; cucumbers and scallions; chocolate, coffee, and tea; ginger and five-spice powder; cashews and pistachios, cookies and bread.

A successful shopping expedition, after a fine lunch ("sliver duck porridge" at Great New York Noodletown--it's a basic good duck congee, kindly done without bones), that after a good workout.

All of this courtesy of a careless stranger, who left a Metrocard with 3.5 days of travel on it on the floor at the 40th-Lowery station of the #7 train Tuesday. I'd have worked out without that, but probably not gone to Chinatown for lunch (my gym is in Midtown), or Atlantic Avenue for all the other cool stuff except the cherries.

Even though I've been out of work, I've still been buying the 30-day all-you-can-eat MetroCards. And using them. As long as I'm not tied to an office, I might as well enjoy the city.
