Ways To Know That You Have Married Well, Part #298,311 In A Series
The Scene: My wee Baltimore row house kitchen, Thursday morning, when both I and my Belovedary are working from home.
Me: Know what I love about miso soup?
Belovedary: What?
Me: I love how as it cooks you can see all the convection currents in the pot because of how the miso flecks move around in the liquid.
Belovedary: Yeah, I like that too. Convection cells. In food!
Me: And when you turn off the pot it keeps doing it.
Belovedary: Mmm, Brownian motion. Yum!
Me: A pot full of math and physics. My food is smarter than I am.
It ain’t books ‘n’ sex ‘n’ politics around here all the time, y’all. It is frequently just plain geeky.
