Today I worked on chapter 3 of the primary novel, but I didn’t end up with much at all. I have come up to the conflict with the pirates and I don’t know how they get to the end of it. (Though I do know the end.) Chapters Four and Five are both written but Chapter Five will need to be substantially reconfigured to deal with the change I made in Rueben’s character.

The most difficult part of healthy eating is what to do about Shabbat each week. It seems to me that it should be special, but my current eating is fairly plain. Tonight I made a tajine, potatoes in a chickpea sauce, and lemon garlic rice and lima beans. I’m not sure what I will do next week but at least this week has beautiful food.
