We went out for dinner tonight, to a new sushi place nearby. I am childish at heart sometimes and was entranced by the conveyor belt of beautiful sushi slowly rolling past us. My favourite is salmon sushi so we had a few of those. We ordered some Hawaiian salmon sushi and it came on a special track above the conveyor belt and whizzed to a stop perfectly. The bell reminded me of an Amtrak train crossing. It was delightful.

After the sushi we had slivers of red velvet cake and New York cheescake. I had never had red velvet cake before. It was very nice. I couldn’t have any coffee as caffeine after about 3pm will keep me awake. The cake made me want to try baking again. My little, tiny oven is a bit unreliable but I used to have fun baking bread and castella cake. I might fire it up again soon.

It was special to me because I had worked at the West Freugh Satellite Ground Station, years ago, tracking satellites…
