Flood vibes for DR Dakota and the rest affected.
Spent the day at a paella cookoff working for a chef from New Jersey who flew in minutes before the event was to have started. He couldn't bring anything with him, such as knives, and I wasn't told to bring anything. But we made a respectable paella that centered on the garlic and olive oil, as any good version should. We added saffron, rice, scallops, lobster, shrimp, chorizo and a few other savory ingredients. We didn't win, but it was fun. The weather was perfect and the event was outdoors.
Tomorrow, it's off to buy a new computer. This one has sadly outlived its life.
