Refinishing and reglazing windows

Is a pain in the ass. I keep telling myself now that I spend all my
freetine working on restoration that someday it will pay off when I
can't compute anymore.

I read one persons blog where they said that you can soften the old
glazing with a heatgun to remove it easier but I was afraid the
heatgun would cause the old glass to shatter so chipping and prying it
was.

Heat guns work.

at a quick glance it looks like a bunch of cigarette butts all over the place.

how many more windows to go?

Nitrate free beef jerky

They now have it at wilsons farms meat summer and elmwood. It comes
in 4 different flavors. I prefer hickory. It was totally reasonable
price too but I can't remember exactly how much.

Whiteface Scary jesus

Why did someone repaint his face even whiter?

lilho - 09/26/09 22:29

hodown - 09/26/09 19:05
Clearly your grandmother thought Jesus is white.

Night two of restaurant week

Tonight (e:terry) and I went to torches on kenmore avenue. the food was
amazing and for once the portions were of reasonable size. We had the
filet minot au poivre with gnochi and a fried calamri appetizer.

Hmm, I didn't like Torches at the Taste, to be honest. Maybe it had to do with the options I chose. I would love to go back to Hutch's, however! I dislike the fact that I didn't make it out during the week, but I had heard some serious horror stories about wait times, etc. - I'd almost rather wait for another time and eat off of the regular menu. Sea Bar had what I thought was an interesting looking deal for $20, same with Amici. There are some faux-pretentious restaurants that I'll never set foot in (I'm talking to you, Merge).

My fiance works at Hutchs, he said this week is so crazy for them! It's a great idea though, a good reason to try places you've never even heard of! There's a whole lot here and I wish there were more kinds of those entertainment books that get people out and about exploring! (supposedly the B-lo area is a GREAT place for scuba diving! I've lived here all my life and never once heard that- just goes to show!)

jenks - 09/25/09 17:22
O'Connell's! that's it. yummmmm. (but not cheap.)

jenks - 09/25/09 17:13
omg, I forgot about torches! yeah I only ate there once but it was great.
another place out there is... shit... what's it called.... on kenmore/colvin... totally unassuming exterior, but amaaaazing food. O'brian's maybe? crap. something like that.

jason - 09/25/09 16:19
I liked Torches food at the Taste of Buffalo. I'm glad you've shown some pictures, maybe I'll get out there someday. Looks nice.

paul - 09/25/09 01:31
Its one of the nicest restuarants in buffalo on the inside.

james - 09/24/09 23:30
I always assumed that place was a dump from the exterior and parking lot. But that food looks amazing.

Filthy

At least the mask worked this time. I finished the bottom half of one
dormer, yeah!
