Good luck with the aloe... a friend had a Ficus elastica, resolutely after 10 years and a repotting sitting with the same 10 inches high and the same 8 leaves.

Within a month of 'sorting it out' (a better repotting and slight relocation), it had added 4 more leaves and grown another 6 or so inches. A year later, I had to air layer it into two plants as it was almost touching the ceiling... and the rest is history.

Tchaikovsky is a delight I keep putting off for no real reason, but a Slonczewski title in the next SciFi slot... : (((

Our favorite olive oil comes from a California producer. But rather than early harvest olive oil, which is peppery and vegetal, we prefer their late harvest olive oil, which is smooth, rich, and luxurious. The flavors are still there, but they don't punch you in the mouth. Instead, they feel more balanced and cooperative.
