Doug's Project 365

I think a mixed bouquet like this — even on Valentine’s day — looks nicer and lasts longer than just roses.

There’s something about having breakfast for dinner that makes me feel like I’m back in the time when I was just starting to live on my own.

There’s one thing to be said for 2 feet of snow on the ground: the snowshoeing is excellent, even in an inner suburb of a major US city. Lis and I went to a park along the Charles in Newton Lower Falls. This bench is not currently among the world’s most ergonomic.

 
[Note: yes, I’m 10 days behind in posting this photo, and we have much less snow now.]

I bottled the Happy Monk today.  50 bottles, 8.6% alcohol by volume.

Jay Peak has moved to an RFID lift ticket system this season. All it takes to show the guts is a little backlight

Lis gave me a present today: one of those magnifying glass / alligator clip thingys to help me with close-up projects.

Lis cleaned a pomegranate today.

I love the patterns whiskey (or other strong alcoholic beverage) forms on the inside of a glass.

Foam on a beer glass.

I had to replace our indoor/outdoor thermometer; the old one succumbed to the elements.  The new one is nice because its remote sensor measures humidity as well as temperature, and is wireless.  And it gives its opinion of the current weather.
