Yesterday afternoon, I went to my doctor's office for a hepatitis B vaccine booster, and the annual flu shot. Hep B doesn't normally need a booster, but one of my medications required hepatitis tests, and Carmen noted that while I don't have hepatitis, I wasn't immune, despite having told her I'd been vaccinated. I made that appointment last week, then the doctor's office sent out a general message about flu vaccine clinics, so I decided to ask if I could get that vaccine at the same time, and they said yes.
I went over to![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
adrian_turtle's after that, and stayed over; she made a half-recipe apple crisp, which was a pleasant surprise to go with the pasta and salad I was expecting for dinner.
On my way home today, I went to the library to pick up a book they had on hold, and browsed a little while I was there. Then to Cambridge to buy socks at Cambridge Clogs--three pairs of smartwool socks, two navy blue and one red, plus a non-wool pair of socks, which seemed like a good idea becauserysmiel is allergic to wool.
I noticed that Bagelsaurus was open and didn't have a line, so I bought a bialy and a "deli rye" bagel. When I ordered the bialy, the cashier told me that they had onion-and-poppy seed bialys, was that all right? I said yes, though I'm used to bialys with onions and no other toppings.cattitude and I enjoyed the bialy: it's not Kossar's*, but it's a good bialy, unlike the things the otherwise-excellent bagel shop in Bellevue was calling bialys.
*Kossar's, on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, is so much the canonical bialy that most New York bagel shops get their bialys from Kossar's, and when I was living in New York, they had the one kind of bialy. I just looked at their website, and they have added a half-dozen other flavors to go with the onion/original bialy. Nothing I'd consider weird, it's plausible savory things like garlic, sesame, and olive, though some people might think sun-dried tomato and basil is a weird thing to put on a bialy.
