Here's the updated paragraph.

    * The proper slaughtering of vegetables.  Each vegetable has its own
      nature, and needs to be treated individually.  This is especially
      true when it comes to their preparation, cooking, and placement in
      an entree.  In July, associated with the Cara Mangini's book,
      there was a presentation of how to properly cut vegetables for
      their ultimate use.

Here's the updated paragraph.

    * Rain, rain, didn't go away.  The water conservation emergency in
      Ca is officially over.  It did certainly rain quite a lot
      in the spring and in the fall of this year.  Because it was out of
      the ordinary, my usual yard clean-up routines had to change quite
      a bit over this year.  That's quite apart from the hellish Bermuda
      grass which has returned with a vengeance this year, invading
      every square inch of ground.
