My flash/manifesto "The New Alexandria" has been accepted by Jabberwocky. I gave Eric a wok tonight for Hanukkah, which I think is in keeping with its spirit.
Does he know how to use a wok? There are a few tricks to it, would be glad to write up if he needs it.
This wok was a replacement for his old one, which perished ignominiously in a washing-related accident last year, so I believe he knows what he's doing; but I also don't think it could hurt. Thank you!

I think I'm going to order a wok spatula and cleaning brush from the folks who made the wok.
The old wok was actually my roommate Bob's and I believe it had never been properly seasoned / broken in, hence it got rusty, of all things.
