Feeling a bit under the weather and asked my son to take my temperature with the electronic thermometer, which he did by ramming it into me head at great speed. The lesson? It can always be worse.

20F outside. My daddodils are all dead.

Becoming an adult feels like slowly being pushed into a managerial position you didn't really want.

Follow me for more recipes.

The climate's challenges and answers in one picture. Beznar reservoir in Andalucia, just starting to recover from drought conditions, with the HEP dam in the background, and beyond that, some of Andalusia's many, many wind turbines.

Lemons - one of the most prevalent sights in this part of Andalucia - on a tree with the Sierra Nevada in the background. The only sunny day of my visit, on the morning before I left. So it goes.

Mood lighting signals sunrise on a 787-10 on the way to Amsterdam. The windows remain tinted letting no light in from the outside. It's a pretty pleasant cabin if you are able to sleep on planes.

A Delta A330-900 waits for me at E pier on a gloomy AMS morning, for the 7hr 22min flight to JFK. The A330 and A350 have this black eyeliner around the flight deck windows; it's very distinctive.

From AMS-AGP last week, somewhere over Spain. Transavia (the Dutch word for 'late', apparently) 737-800.
