Ooohhhhh. Spider scrolly bowls.

Omg! It’s sunshine! Fresh air! A sight I haven’t seen in days! My retinas and/or epidermis is burning.

Oh yeah, I live in Miami. Contrary to the rest of the Internet, I get more summer. I had *almost* convinced myself it was fall, or at the very least a fall-like approximation. No such luck–just summer part deux/the rainy season.

Ok, so sue me. It’s another food photo. This is what happens when one decides to work instead of helping deal with our broken into with a rock car. Damn crackheads.

For this season everyone not in the sub tropics calls fall, I have resolved to make more soup. First up: Moroccan Spiced Carrot Soup. Not sure what’s terribly Moroccan about this dish, but it was pretty good. I’m glad I used double the spices called for in the recipe, though truth be told I could have doubled the curry again.

That’s high inspiration, there. My couch blanket.

Miami’s “arch”

Interesting wall curtain fabric at the popup restaurant Phuc Yea. Kinda looks like Link.

Dinner. Fail. (with expensive ingredients no less) The tastes were good though on the unsalted side, but I managed to waaay undercook the fregola. Why didn’t I taste it? I was distracted by Priceline. Live and learn. Next time I’ll cook the fregola, make more, and broil the broccoli. Steamed is just too tasteless.

Aside from salt & pepper, my most-used ingredient.

Gears 3 with all it’s attendant paraphernalia. Cool box, cast metal cog, flag, awards, letters, photographs, and Hammer of Dawn blueprint.
