Archive for the “Photos”

work swallowed me

Thursday, October 1st, 2009

Uhhhhhpparently I haven’t uploaded any pictures since June. I was thinking I’d just throw up a few recent garden pics and discovered I had a backlog of a couple hundred. We actually did a few things this summer, I vaguely recall. Things like, barbeque ribs.

Visit Morro Bay for Debbie’s 30th birthday.

See Hearst Castle while [...]


topical

Sunday, July 5th, 2009

This photo from 2003 showed up as my random gallery image, and I thought I’d highlight it. Some feelings are eternal.

Related: this feature on who would want to govern our crazy Neverland of a state is pretty entertaining. Here’s an Arnold anecdote:
Even in the most desperate circumstances, when you might expect the [Democrats and Republicans] [...]


porkapalooza

Friday, June 26th, 2009

Last week we ventured out into the city on a weeknight (!) for an event called “Porkapalooza.” Really, how could we resist? The hook was that you watched a butchering demonstration while you ate fingerfoods made from that very pig. (A couple of my friends misunderstood and thought for most of a week that we’d [...]


what news in May?

Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

Well, Bryan ritualistically celebrated his departure from Berkeley and graduate school.

I cut my hair off, again.

Our tomato plants got taller.

And we engaged in some light home-improvement projects.

More where that came from, here.


foooood

Friday, May 1st, 2009

Things, they happen, and I don’t write about them. I did manage to post a round of pictures a week or so ago, so I’ll point you to those and highlight one recent event: a godless Easter dinner with old friends.

We spent the weekend working on seafood gumbo with a dark, dark roux:

And rum [...]


holidays, still in progress

Tuesday, December 30th, 2008

Bryan and I had a ball (albeit a sniffly one) during our multi-stage Christmas week, and pictures of all the phases (CA, train, CO, TX) are up on gallery. I’m now finishing a grueling two days of work and ready for another couple days off! Happy New Year!

the end.


family bonding

Wednesday, October 8th, 2008

My parents just made their first visit to California since our wedding, and a good time was had by all. Lots of eating and drinking and some home-based projects like assembling a swanky grill (their house-warming gift) and refinishing our dining room table (fumes in an unventilated room WOO!). We also visited Alcatraz and made [...]


moved!

Sunday, October 5th, 2008

Before I talk about anything else, I should probably just post for the record that hey! we moved! like, a month ago! An album of the new and old places is up on gallery. We are very happy with five rooms instead of two and a half, and Sous is busy finding new and delicious [...]


mountains are pretty

Wednesday, October 1st, 2008

Yup, turns out Monday was the perfect day for a raspberry sorbet recipe. In other news unrelated to the economic collapse, I finally posted many overdue photos to gallery. Witness: the Colorado portion of our road trip album and other general summer photos, including a few from our late July camping trip with friends. Like [...]
