Wednesday evening: Stuff, just stuff
Jul. 15th, 2009 10:41 pm1. A hearty Liamverse welcome to
hotspurre and
kdsorceress!
KD's icon has the Citgo sign in the background!
2. My wife just deposited a dish containing fresh brownies covered with locally made Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough ice cream.
3. Earlier this evening, she made the filling and dough for baked pakoras.
4. Work is cranking up and getting busier. Week after next I will actually be going out and working with kids on portfolios and resumes.
5. We won't be going to War Camp this weekend in Eisental. Just too much going on. I am afraid that event is going to be a casualty of the change in Pennsic dates, and for us in this area, the two preceding weekends are taken up by GNEW and Northern Region War Camp.
Either that, or it -- and other events -- are going to start becoming more regional rather than kingdom-wide.
I do think that there might be an argument for a decent-sized event on the weekend before Labor Day, now that Pennsic ends a week earlier.
6. The secrets of gyros, as explained by the New York Times. There is also video.

7. I was actually not going to post tonight, but then I saw this:

Chicken Fried Bacon
This ode to bacon won the award for Best Taste at the 2008 Big Tex Choice Awards. Creator Glen Kusak had been a fair vendor for 12 years running, but 2008 marked his first year entering the annual State Fair of Texas food contest.
Other great fair foods.
