Franken-fruit
I don't know what this is - a small Asian pear? I'm holding out hope that it's a hybrid fruit - two of the best edibles i've ever consumed were baby kiwis (think grape sized kiwis with a slick instead of fuzzy skin) and mango nectarines (orange tangy fleshed handfruit).

NYer Brunch
Just finished hosting the every-other-month New Yorker brunch (some attendees pictured above). When started a few years back, we'd diligently discuss New Yorker articles and current events.

From Friday afternoon, a few minutes before audience was let in for the Google CES Keynote. Larry Page delivered a unique keynote, no small help from Robin Williams. People seemed to like it.
