My unofficial gague of how cold it’s been recently is the temperature of our (drafty, uninsulated) basement: if it gets below 50 degrees, I consider it a cold snap.

I picked up a 6-pack of Smuttynose’s new seasonal beer today. It tastes like someone added waaay too much hops to their Old Brown Dog (which I also like).

It’s not a nice treat if it doesn’t look special.

I took some of the grates off the top of my stove to clean out today’s accumulation of bacon grease, leading to cool shadows inside.

Freezer case at Moody’s Delicatessen, taken while awaiting my order. Is there a better sandwich than their Bahn Mi?  I don’t think so.

We had a homemade sushi party for my sister’s family last night, and there was some fish left over.  What does one do with leftover sushi fish?  Fish tacos!

Today was a nice day for a walk.  Our destination was the Moody St. dam on the Charles river.

I took a camera-phone shot of a fluorescent light in the basement (so I can investigate a replacement) and the photo came out striped. The tube is not actually rust-streaked.
