1 quart = 2 pints...


... but are they UK or US pints? Hmmm. And is there a UK and US quart? Who knows?
I am now settling down to blog with a gin and tonic in front of me, listening to this morning's Chris Moyles show in Radio 1. Last night we went down to Annapolis to meet Harvey, Wendy's boxer puppy. He is 4 and a half months old and very cute. Wendy drove us down (she works in Baltimore), we stayed over after a yummy meal at the Chart House, and then Wendy dropped us at home on her way to work in the morning. I forgot my phone and camera, so I stole a picture off Wendy's facebook.
While there, we went to the doggy park which was very interesting. It seemed to me slightly unfair only to have a small fenced off bit of an enormous park where dogs could run free, but it was incredible. It was just like a play group for dogs though; Harvey knew all the other dogs and ran round saying hello to them all when he arrived, and then proceeded to play with the other dogs. Thinking that dogs are pack animals, I suppose it isn't that surprising, but it was very interesting.
On Wednesday night, Kristi came over (officially the fourth person to eat in our apartment) and we can Thai red curry, then sat out on the balcony watching the view and playing Perudo. The Domino Sugar sign came on at 7.45. We are wondering whether this is light-triggered or timed, or what. Only time (or google) will tell.
We have both taken up a free one-month membership at the MAC gym, a block north of the apartment. It is really very nice, and we both went at different times today.
