scottobearI forgot to mention that we picked up Hot Brain last night, and did a little walk-shopping in Barnes and Noble.
My current (one game in) abilities are: (on a 0-120 scale)
Average Brain temp - 95.618 - red hot... but a lot of room for improvement, especially in the Concentration and Memory Department. They're pretty fun little logic puzzles.
Hot Pixel is next on my psp game-list.
Sunday was primarily about chores and getting to things that needed doing. My end of things included kitty litter, laundry folding, insurance forms, a letter to bro, amongst others.
Watched the good bits of Night of the Comet and then The Frighteners while folding clothes, etc. Makes things that much more wonderful. Super hot outside, so gardening was kept to the shade or out of the sun as much as possible.
BHK and I took took an all-too-brief excursion to a new candy store that opened about a week ago in North Beach. I suspect it won't do as well as the other one, even though the older of them keeps banker's hours at best. He simply has been there longer, and is right on the boardwalk strip. The new store is right where BHK used to work... I got to buy some gummi taperworms where she first IM'ed me about 4 years ago. Hard to believe that was a landmark moment leading to us getting together. Heck, it's hard to believe we're well over seven months married, come to think of it. I would never have guessed back then that I'd be living outside of Florida now.
At about the end of Frighteners, Louise and the in-laws swung by to chow down on goodies from our garden. Tina and Doug couldn't make it as they were pooped from a the road trip.
Pictures of our garden's bounty - beets, stuffed peppers, peas, green beans, potatoes, squash, zucchini. BHK makes veggies that even a little kid would gladly attack and consume. I didn't think that I'd like the beets, but they were surprisingly good. I'm still not crazy about leeks.
After supper, we watched Shag with the gang, ate a Klondike bar, and then called it a night. (Side Note - Annabeth Gish was a lot more cute back in the day than in her X-files period)
1 year ago - nearly naked neighbors, gray day, mob supply pic, newt pics,
2 years ago - talked to Arnie's Sec, newt and graffiti pix, autostitch, wifi theft arrest, reality show premises, j-walk on podcasts, programmer joke, google maps goodies, flightgear, wifi hotspot backpack, my messy office, bear-knocking, sex pred info pages
3 years ago - combos/snausages , wisdom, serving sizes, ramen, Rockford Files, Planetarium pictures, weather, sock thief
4 years ago - call block, snapple, intelligence gathering, Batroc, flashback cartoon, addictive data
5 years ago - oz/floyd connection, pimps at sea, rss feeds start, cat dreams
6 years ago - cej returns, unpacking videos, 1992 tax info, the challenge, corn chowder, kubrick quiz
7 years ago - Rowlf sings, April actually kicks back a few bucks, pondering a new recorder

Date: 2007-07-09 06:27 pm (UTC)the garden has been very rewarding so far... we're going to have to freeze or pickle some of it, just because we can't possibly eat it all!

Date: 2007-07-09 06:28 pm (UTC)yeah, root veggies vary... but these beets were sweet!
Of course, my faves are the zucchini and the potatoes. good eats, I tells ya.
the leeks were made by the mom-in-law... leek-potato soup sounds much more appealing than steamed.

Date: 2007-07-09 07:41 pm (UTC)Did you ever eat Colcannon
When 'twas made with yellow cream
And the kale and praties blended
Like the picture in a dream?
Did you ever take a forkful
And dip it in the lake
Of heather-flavored butter
That your mother used to make?
Oh, you did, yes you did!
So did he and so did I,
And the more I think about it
Sure, the more I want to cry.
God be with the happy times
When trouble we had not,
And our mothers made Colcannon
In the little three-legged pot.
