Jarred tomatoes

We got an amazing half bushel of tomatoes from the Clinton Bailey Farmers market. (e:terry) canned them and also made a delicious marinara sauce with them. With the linguini we had string beans, cheesy garlic bread, and salad.

So domestic.

The peels come off the tomatoes easily by boiling them quickly and placing them in ice water
image
Terry then jarred them
image

image
and put them in boiling water for 12 minutes. 14 jars of tomatoes!

Sweetness 7

I had only been to Sweetness 7 for the Park in at Parkside event, but we biked over for brunch on Sunday with (e:heidi) and (e:dianne).

The crepes were amazing. They had fresh lemon curd on them which was perfectly sweet. The breakfast sandwiches were great on the everything bagel too. The food took a while to come out because they forgot to put our order in - but we got a free cinnamon roll to make up for it. Awesome.

Ride to the outer harbor

Saturday I made (e:paul) and (e:terry) go on a bike ride. It was a perfect day for it. The only bad part was somehow I got a blister on my eye (bug maybe?).

30 for 30 and curtain up

Friday we headed down to Brian's 30 for 30 event for Squeaky Wheel. He video dj'ed for 30 hours, a world record (hopefully) in honor of Squeaky Wheel's 30th anniversary. (e:terry) volunteered - (e:paul) and I had to be there also from 12-4am.

image

image
Stinky the wino came too

Outside Curtain up was happening. I always thought it was an old people thing your parents did, but it actually seemed like an awesome street party. They had kettle corn, performers, a weird puppet show - I haven't seen that many people on Main Street since before the square moved.
image

image
The squeaky wheel event was at Cowork Buffalo on Main. They had these cute little bead buffaloes everywhere.
image
Terry and I went back for the end the next night. Brian made it without sleep. The videos he were playing got kind of creepy at the end (people on fire, screaming, mental patients etc).

Buffalo sunsets

Sunsets in the fall are absolutely crazy. I wish my camera could do them justice.

Life alert

Paul gets ads in the mail for a type of life alert. I think that's a few decades off at least, but I don't think he'd even consider it unless it was on his Android wear watch. OK Google, I've fallen and I can't get up!

Creepy bathroom

For a while in our building at work the creepy shower in the men's bathroom was boarded up, and had a huge hole punched in the wall. Now its taped off and you can't use it because of asbestos. Should it have been closed off this whole time? How ironic would it be getting mesothelioma at a cancer hospital.

Music is art

After Tour de Farms, we headed to music is art with (e:xandra). First I had to go with my mom to let out this horse of great Dane. It was a little terrifying because he could jump so that he was taller than me.

I met up with everyone at music is art for the end. I couldn't tell if the music the DJ played was actual 90s dance or it was from hipsters. We saw Masumis friend Liz and Phi there, before (e:Steve) met with us. it was an awesome time.

Tour de farms

Tour de Farms was way colder than last year, but still pretty awesome. (e:terry) and I left in the morning, and met up with (e:yesthatcasey) for the urban farm portion. (e:paul) rested up in bed during the morning.

image
Terry and I had to dress warm and sporty. It got warmer later though.

image
image
Ever since I replaced the chasis on my phone, the pictures are so blurry and overexposed. I think the lens plastic isn't as good.

Wilson Street urban farm. They have 25 lots and the one owner has a pretty intense beard.

The MAP chickens. I don't want to eat them but they're cute enough that I want to raise one.

You weren't supposed to pick the flowers at Ole's farm this year. Everyone who did got yelled at.
image
The food was really good this year. We had wraps from Ashker's for lunch, and I got bean salad and corn for dinner. Warning for next year, the potato salad has bacon in it.

image
Paul woke up at noon to pick up Casey after he got a flat. He raced out to Alden on his bike and we got to drink beer and eat with him.

image
I got to track Paul's Tour de suburb on the way over with Google+.

New job (again)


On Thursday, I got offered a full time position as a programmer analyst at Roswell. It starts as soon as I'm done with my contract - I'm so pumped that I get to stick around.

The only down side is I won't be in the web development department with (e:Paul) anymore, I'll be on the clinical IT team. But maybe we can get find ways to pull projects together.

This week we also got to soft launch the appointment reminder system. Four patients have already signed up. I can't wait to make it even better.
