I’m making polenta for tomorrow’s dinner tonight, doing it ahead so it can set up and I can slice & fry it.

We had a second day of great weather and skiing at Jay Peak today. Here’s the view from the summit at 9:15 am.

We had a rare treat at Jay Peak today — a warm, sunny, non-windy day.

At whatever scale your mind sees this photo, tangerines are not supposed to be the same diameter as carrots.

Lis went to move this candle at dinner tonight, and the bottom fell out!  Good thing it’s a stone table!

When we moved in, we were surprised that the ca. 1985 dishwasher actually did a decent job.  Over the past couple of weeks that stopped, so Saturday I ordered and today I installed a new, quiet, energy-efficient model similar to the one in Southboro.

I replaced my old Linksys router with a new, 802.11n-capable model today, so that I can stream video from the MythTV system upstairs. It was just too far of a reach for the Airport Expresses from the first floor to the third.

We had a small but lively gathering this evening for Amy & Glenn, in from Connecticut for a conference.

After a really long week at work, I needed a beer tonight.  Since we had none in the house, Lis and I just had to go out to dinner. Dogfish Head 60-minute IPA on tap… mmmm.
 

I have no idea why my little camera takes such terrible photos in restaurants.
