One thing that annoys me is the "reload/refresh" button is on the wrong side of the address/location bar.

Yes, I went looking for it a couple of times. Very nice layout, though. A huge improvement.

The only thing I find that takes some getting used to is that in the pop up box when you right-click on a link, "Open Link in New Tab" is now above "Open in New Window". It's a small change, but I must have opened a hundred new windows since yesterday when each time I meant to open a new tab.

The selection is actually in a more logical location, since I assume that, like me, most people tend to open more new tabs than new windows. By the end of the week, it should be second nature.

I just got home with my vegetables from my CSA. Oh my! Among other things, I got asparagus, bok choy, rainbow carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, snow peas, and STRAWBERRIES! I'm eating better now than I've eaten in years. I highly recommend joining a CSA or buying a farm share for the summer if you have the opportunity. It's like Christmas every week!

I kept falling foul of that as well!

The other thing that's irking me is that the 'Home' button is way over on the right of the screen. Can it be moved?

I just did a search for a CSA in my area and didn't find one, but I think Windsweep Farm (where I get my eggs) might help. They offer "seasonal" veggies, most importantly (to me), tomatoes, sweet corn, and summer squash. I might have to plant my own radishes, green onions, and salad greens. I'm drooling over an Aero Garden... but they are expensive.

I agree, I'm in this for the tomatoes! I had no idea I would get this much variety -- it's because this particular CSA is a multi-farm one, I think.

I've researched getting an Aero Garden, too, ever since Exer posted a picture of one in another thread. They are kind of high, though, and I don't really need one as long as I've got this subscription. I'm still hoping I can find a good place for eggs, though. I haven't had any luck with that yet.

I'm watching Stella - after her first experience with catnip - she's stoned! Wandering around very slowly, falling down a lot, and staring at nothing.

My cat -- on drugs.

Is the older cat doing any better accepting her?

Clocking out from work then off home!

Yep see Dennis's advice above.

One of mine begs for it, the other one couldn't care less.

Yes - the 2 older cats are actually beginning to play again - jealous of the attention I guess - and that the new little one is playing with their old toys - that they've ignored for years!
