Texas had rolling blackouts today (and have been told to expect more tomorrow) in an effort to conserve energy and not pop a button on the power grid (or maybe it was to make us California transplants feel more at home, which if you think about it is sort of sweet in that 'bless your heart" kind of way), the power would stay on for ten minutes then shut off for about an hour. This is when a house full of single pane windows, a closet full of tank tops and a phone call to my mom and sister in Boston starts making a person feel foolish.
Since we had nowhere to go we stayed home and made soup and cocoa. Augie wanted "meatballs" (marshmallows) in his cocoa but then changed his mind about two minutes later and wanted plain cocoa, instead opting to eat his own boogers. He's three.
