Hey, great job on those.

Home Made PierogiesCategory: homemade
Inspired by our Easter trip to the Broadway Market, (e:James) and I made pierogies this weekend:
Making the potato and cheese filling:
Forming the pierogies:
Boiled then fried up:
They came out better then I'd expected, and we made enough to freeze some for a few more meals.

Interesting. I am thinking of making something similar soon. My mom usually makes them around September-October. They look like the ones in the 2nd photograph, but the dough is rice flour and the filling is made of white-lentils + green chillies (pleasantly spicy!) and the dumpling is steamed. Mmmmm... just thinking about it is making me happy!

Red TapeCategory: life
So, I started a business, and I think so far I've spent as much money paying NYS for various things then I've actually brought in. Hopefully by the end of the year things will be rosier.
The last requirement for starting this thing is that I publish the creation of my LLC in two different papers in Erie County. I have another month or two still to fulfill this requirement, but I've been afraid to find out just how extortionate it will be. I'm going to call tomorrow and find out. Hopefully it will be more like $50 and less like $500.
My merchant account I'm just getting through PayPal, so that hasn't been too bad. And it's funny, if you're starting a business account at HSBC they have you meet with a Vice President. Apparently every single branch has a Vice President working in it or something, so HSBC must have something like 20,000 VP's.

VP promotions are running jokes at banks - they hand that title out like candy and often in lieu of a raise.

Web app development, couple side projects that might turn into something that would let me quit my day job. I've also set up a few stores for people, I'm hopeful that'll keep bringing in some revenue.
The web apps that I"m making might need some money for promotional expenses, so I'm setting up a company to be official for loans (even though I'll still have to personally cosign everything).

vice-president seems just like a jerk off title given to people to inflate their importance in the eyes of customers.
And it is good to know that small businesses are real expensive to start. The state must have their pound of flesh. Tax breaks for Exon/Mobile and fees for the rest of us.

The combo of camera/view scope produces a neat look. these have a creepy Alfred Hitchcock-Twilight Zone feel to them. I like it.
