Next to Sam’s apartment building is another apartment building. Parked in the garage is another reminder you’re not in Kansas any more. This looks like a 360 Modena to me. The coupe went for about $160,000 new in 2004. The median sales price for homes in Washington County, Ohio is $97,000.
just a taste
Sam continued her cooking this past weekend. Sunday morning began with a delicious omelet and ended with beef bulgogi, which we are both still enjoying for lunch this week.
numina
Sam and I have been working for the last month or so on a top secret project that takes up most of our weekends. We may reveal it to the world in the next few months. On Saturday we were able to sneak away from this work and meet with our grad school friend and […]
luck
I could have been eating cold cereal out of a box Saturday morning. Instead I was eating a home made cheese and veggie omelet in a grilled croissant. Can you see that cheese oozing out? That’s a mixture of mozzarella and cheddar. I asked Sam what this pleasant surprise was all about (she cooks a lot of dinners, but […]
lucky stomach
This weekend I was the lucky recipient of Sam’s culinary experiments again. On Saturday she made macaroni and cheese. Her goal was to compete with Beechers, but her ingredients ended up a bit different and influenced the taste to go in another direction. It was still great but I’d have to put it in a […]
Erode
On Saturday night Sam and I headed to Culver City to check out a group show at the WWA Gallery called Critters and People. We were going because we’re fans of one of the five featured artists, JAW Cooper. The gallery has a large outer space and a smaller back room with unsold art […]
This Modern Life
Religion is a touchy subject in America. Despite what both sides of the argument would like to think, it always has been. The first European immigrants slipped away to America to escape religious persecution only to think up even more horrific dogma to enslave themselves with years later. The burning of witches happened only 300 years ago. […]
Seattle 8F trip day 4
Sam and I started off our last day in Seattle with a short walk to Pioneer Square to take the Underground Tour. Afterwards we headed to the Market to meet Byron for lunch. I had my third and final Mac&Cheese of the trip (the second occurred when I slipped out of the Market on Saturday while everyone […]
Seattle 8F trip day 3
On Sunday morning Byron and Christine took us to one of their favorite (extremely hipster infested) breakfast places, OddFellows. I can see why Byron likes it though, it’s completely his style; old turn of the century (or earlier) appliances, furniture, everything. Their “key” logo even looks like one of Byron’s drawings (I wouldn’t be surprised […]
Seattle 8F trip day 2
On this trip, Byron and Christine were generous enough to let Sam and myself sleep in their bedroom. Christine and Byron had an air mattress in the living room. On Saturday I woke up to find them both “plugging in” together. After Sam and I made a quick run to Top Pot we all poured […]
