October, 2018

Opening up a wall under our stairs to see if I can stuff in some more insulation, I found a few old items including this rusty kitchen tool. I’m pretty sure it has cut its last biscuit.

In some offices, people keep candy at their desks for coworkers. In my office, however…

I had lunch outdoors at Rowes Wharf today. At the very end of the season, I finally managed to make it to the tamale cart I’ve been wanting to go to since April

(Yes, a 2nd post from me today. I didn’t want to make this a bonus photo on the previous post.)

Striking Boston hotel workers marched past my office today.

Today I rebuilt Lis’s booth table in preparation for her fair next weekend. This 40-year-old aluminum table is light, easy to carry, and about the right size. But its pressboard top had become warped and unstable, so I replaced it with thin plywood. We’ll see how it goes!

I went to the Mini Maker Faire at Lis’s workplace today. There were many cool things to be seen, not the least this giant moving manta ray sculpture.

I like this beer tankard but only really get to use it for one season of the year. And yes, I know, I’ve got the wrong brand of beer in it.

I wanted to warm up some pitas for dinner this evening, so I looked up some suggestions online for the best way to go about it. The directions I chose resulted in the very crisp pitas on the right. Not what I was going for.

Never eat anything bigger than your head. I made an exception for this croissant because, you know, they’re half air anyway.
