George and Becky are in town visiting family (and, before Becky accepted a position in the Bay Area, interviewing for the health care side of my employer). So, we took them to 74th Street Ale House, the closest thing we have to a pub in our end of Seattle.

For today's work potluck, it was macerated strawberries marinated in balsamic vinegar and brown sugar. Egg slicers are most effective at slicing strawberries; I turned two pounds of California berries into even red slices in 15 minutes. Overdid the balsamic and sugar, but the berries were hard and pretty flavorless to begin with. (Only bought them because they were $2/pound at Larry's).
