Hair Experiment : What Number Are We On?

Hair is dry and was washed about five hours ago- It feels less oily than it did a few days ago at the five hour mark, so I think my scalp is getting the message about not having to go overtime on the oil production. It still feels somewhat more oily than it would had I washed my hair with shampoo, but is at about 80% of Perfect Cleanness and is decently presentable for wearing loose. The ends of my hair smelled a little like vinegar while they were still wet because I didn't take enough time to rinse the ends out properly.

Reading: Reality as Social Process by Charles Hartshorne. I sincerely think that the man just repeats his same main thesis in pretty much the same language in the first chapters of every book he writes, but since it's kind of an off-the-beaten-track thesis, I think that he's probably doing okay.

I made this potato salad recipe last night, substituting apple cider vinegar for rather gourmet vinegar that the recipe calls for, and I was quite pleased with the end result. It tastes a lot like some things I have eaten in Germany and Austria.

Somethings I would change in the recipe/directions
-cut the potatoes to bite-sized, not the halves or quarters.
-I might next time use a drier white than the Chardonnay I tried this time- maybe a pinot grigio would have more bite
-I wonder if this might not make a good dressing for roasted potatoes, too? We shall see.
