The Buns of St. Lucy
In celebration of Lucia, Wlofie made the
traditional lussekatter, a
sweet bread made with saffron (which
costs about ¼ the price of gold—yes, it's expensive stuff, but you
don't need much). I think I enjoyed the lussekatter more than the
cake I made the other day.
All I want to do is resize some graphics!
I spent way too much time last night tring to get ImageMagick installed on my Mac mini. I compiled and installed the latest version, but each time I tried using it, I kept getting:
convert: no decode delegate for this image format (jpeg)
A Google
search on the error didn't prove anything conclusive. Even installing
an older version didn't work (same error). The binary install of
ImageMagick was useless as that's for Tiger, and apparently, I
don't have Tiger but Panther (gee, what ever
happened to things like version 10.4 or 10.3?).
Eventually, I was able to find a package I could install, but by then several hours had passed, and all I wanted to do was resize some pictures.
Sigh.
