da farm shop
Category: food
Last Thursday I went to the Farm Shop Lexington and Ashland, mostly because I kept reading about their amazing custard online. they are the same dairy as the farmers market who brings their stuff in from White Cow Dairy in East Otto. The store was really cute but the selection wasn't big, mostly a few types of whey yogurt drinks, yogurts and custard (plus lamb but IDC). The employee there was helpful and knew tons about the dairy, he actually worked on the farm. I got a birch and a berry yogurt drink plus a vanilla custard for $10. The yogurt drinks were okay, custard was good but (e:paul) and (e:terry) said it smelled like farts and couldn't be near me when I ate it. Oh well! I don't think I'd go back unless they sold cheese or maybe whole milk.

To finish off a bougie night of eating, (e:Paul) and I headed to the coop where he got more of the best gummies I have ever tasted. I'm seriously addicted to these things, plus they have no gelatin.

Summer Cereal
Category: food

Another food truck worthy cereal from (e:Paul). Chocolate hazelnut biscotti granola, bananas, blackberries, eggnog, pecans, almond milk and coconut macaroons. Sugar coma for real.

Dell Jet Engine
Category: computers

I finally replaced the fan on my laptop. its hard to tell but it only has three of thirteen fan blades on it. I wish I recorded the sound because it sounded like a freaking 747 taking off ever since I got it. At least it never overheated!

Work Time Change
Category: work

I finally got approval today from my supervisors to move my work time from 7:30-4:30 to 8:30-5:30. I asked to do this because not only will I get more sleep (hopefully) I also will be able to ride my bike in day light at least one at and avoid traffic both ways. Neither of them really understood why I'd want to ride a bike, they both thought it was because I didn't have full access to a car. Almost no one older at work actually seems to understand why I ride to commute and view it as a crazy death wish. Winter might be riskier but on nice days its just as fast and cheaper than driving. It seems like such a generational disconnect on how we think of cars.

Speaking of winter, I really want to get these studied tires and dayglo fenders for my bike. It'd be such a nerdmobile.
