Listened to a great Nerdist podcast this evening with Alton Brown as the guest. Even though he’s (Alton) curmudgeonly on Twitter, I still totally dig him.

Magnificent creature in Vinegar Hill

We’ve been re-watching one of our favorite shows, Battlestar Galactica. A two-geek household makes the question of ‘what do you want to watch tonight?’ pretty redundant – especially when a Battlestar marathon is an option. (except for Sunday’s True Blood break and Monday – that space has been reserved for Breaking Bad/catchup on non-Battlestar viewing).

 

Office shadow

Heirloom tomato tart

Summer corn risotto

So this happened today on our walk to B & H.

*nerd squee* I was lucky enough to score two tickets to the Dr. Who season 7 US premiere and Q & A session. Needless to say, the episode was fantabulous. The Q & A helmed by Chris Hardwick: also awesome.

Rambled and rambled and found Green Wood Cemetery (unfortunately after gates-closed).

 

This is the Cheshire Cat from one of my favorite games (visually speaking – I hit the tongue level and gave up), American McGee’s Alice. I won’t go near the long-awaited sequel because Alice looks wrong (ok, if I’m honest, she looked wrong in the first version but I loved the art design so much I was willing to ignore it), but I love this version. Dark, creepy, mangy, Tim Burton-y.
