My entire family was at the house today to celebrate my dad’s 80th birthday.

We made cupcakes from scratch for my dad’s 80th birthday, which we’re celebrating tomorrow.

Lis and I walked down to West Newton for dinner tonight.  On the way back we spotted this sign.

I always wondered where one is supposed to park one’s stickers.

I made some biscotti last week as an attempt to keep myself out of Dunkin Donuts on those mornings when I need a little breakfast at work.  Today I made another batch, of a different flavor.

The good weather is back!  I cooked myself some locally-caught striped bass on the grill tonight, with an olive/tomato/garlic/hot pepper salsa.  (Yes, Lis is not home this evening.)  I think the smell brought these guys out earlier than usual.

I had a busy, productive day at work today.  It’s hard to take a picture of software, or of the design or implementation thereof.  And the weather is more like April than July today, so there’s not a lot of photo opportunity outside.  I made a yummy but not particularly attractive dinner.

But Winnie is awfully photogenic.  And thus Project 365 lives for one more day.

A couple of my coworkers are in a band.  A while back, I saw an article on Slashdot about a way to get your CDs listed on Amazon.com, and shared it with them.  Well today, Jay handed me a copy of their new CD as thanks.

Break a leg, guys!

Lis and I went for a bike ride today, along the Charles down to Watertown Square.  On the way back, we passed this sign.

The bath fan is in and functional.  We can paint now — the green bathroom will soon be green in name only.

My Saturday plan: finish up installing the exhaust fan in our green bathroom.  There’s not room for a 3-gang electrical box (for fan, main light, and nightlight) in the chosen location, so I found a double switch.  I think the Decora version here looks much better than the toggle variety.
