sure, we'll meet the meat

Alas, no snow. But on the upside, the sleet/freezing rain/ice pellets/wintry mix has been moving in slowly enough that the roads were fine and we were able to go out for Sarah's birthday dinner at Chamas. Highly recommended for any/all carnivores. C'mon, meat on swords... what's not to love? And continuing the sword motif, we came home and watched another Zatoichi movie. I'm impressed that, even as I can see the series was becoming more formulaic, they were still able to find new and interesting ways to stage the fighting set pieces. In tonight's installment, the standouts include the fight at the river, and the final showdown, particularly the business with the candles, and the sections shot from above.
