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 […]
Seattle 8F trip day 1
Late last year Byron and I began working on a business together. That business will be revealed to the world very shortly, but before that happens we needed to meet in person to work out some of the kinks. Sam was aware of this as she has a small role in one of the functions […]
Last time I went to Seattle
We ended up doing this for fun on the boat back from Bremerton. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krhrnWjJ72M I have a feeling this trip will have just as much laughing, but be… different. stay tuned
Copro
On Saturday night I picked Sam up from LAX. She had just spend two weeks in Hong Kong for work. Her reintroduction to Los Angeles was fitting as we went to Whole Foods for a bit to eat and then headed to Bergamot Station for a gallery opening. The show was Conjoined II at the […]
sturtevant falls
Maybe a month ago Sam and I planned to spend a Saturday in January hiking to a waterfall with Cindy. A little over a week ago Sam was informed she’d have to go to China for work for a few weeks. This waterfall turned out to be a decent one, so it’s a shame that […]
