Black Rock Kitchen

·

Okay maybe I do have a seafood problem. The food at the Black Rock Kitchen is delicious. I had a calamari, shrimp and crab appetizer to start followed by the crab cake BLT. The food was a bit expensive but it tasted so good. I wanted to try the lamb real bad but it was encrusted with pistachio and I'm not a big fan of pistachios after I ended up eating pistachio worms a couple times.

Trip To Windmill Point

·


After a day of non-stop gardening we biked to Canada for some swimming, then swam across the freezing quary twice before heading back to the states. The peace bridge is under construction now so you travel on the Canadian sidewalk going both ways.

Its awesome to just be able to skip all the cars going into Canada.

If you were a snot fetishist...

·


...I'd be your lube. Seriously, though I am so sick of the allergic drip, drip, drip. Today while gardening I was using the chipper to reduce some trees to mulch and it just wouldn't stop.

Yum Tuna Salad

·


I had the best tuna salad this morning. I bought a huge chunk of tuna at thr coop and chopped it up into salad. It must have been okay to eat it raw like the sign said, because it was like 10 hours ago and I'm not dead yet.

Basra The Tortoise In A Tank

·

So the tortoise has taken to dragging the canoe around the backyard as a sort of tank weapon. It really allows him to destroy just about anything. I find it so funny that a beast that already had a shell on his body now is driven to drag around a much heavier shell. He is so strong bow that I literally sat Indian style on his shell the other day and he dragged me around.

Whats Wrong With Buffalo

·

At Niagara square today I noticed they sand blasted the bricks to make it look cleaner. Frankly, I liked the old look to the sand blasted look but what's really crazy is that someone thought asphalt was an appropriate brick substitute. How the fuck did anyone think it was okay to do. This screams lazy govt worker. They couldn't find a freakin substitute brick. Even of another color. I would support taking the person who made the decision that this was appropriate and ironically stoning them to death with bricks in the square.

Top of City Hall

·

We took @terry's mom. I couldn't stop thinking about the guy that jumped. As we were in the elevator and walking up the stairs, I wondered if he amazed at the reliefs or if he stopped and read any of the signs on his way.

Its sad the state the Statler is in. Its like covering the sidewalk with overhead protection is their total solution to the problem of the buildings concretes decorations falling on people's heads.
