Happy-making, and recent

The memory of these and the pleasure they brought should last all the week long: the Veterans' Day parade, marching bands, Circus Chimera, Tejano and conjunto music, baking again now that it's cooler, cornbread with chiles, Austin's own Rosita's Tamales (pork and jalapeno) accompanied by Jaime's hot green sauce, clouds of butterflies, and buds sighted in the clumps of paperwhite narcissus. And I'm glad that the toy camera captured all three of the circus banners. They seem to be air-brushed. In this one I especially like the expression on George Washington's face, as well as the plane's contrails.
