Now that it’s getting warm, what better to think about than sausage. Well, ice cream might be better. Watermelon might be better, but that is not what I have on my mind. I have sausage on my mind. Wait, this could get weird fast. Restart! So, making sausage is one of the birthday goals. This… Continue reading There are so many ways a title containing the word “sausage” can go wrong…
Beer for beginners
I may have created a monster. About two months ago, it was my gentleman caller’s birthday. After a few digging conversations, I decided that I was going to get him a beer brewing kit for his birthday. Funny thing is that as much cooking as I do, I never really expected to be an accomplice… Continue reading Beer for beginners
Algeria
I promise that this blog isn’t going to turn into a chronicle of memories about dates I had from men around the world. Really, really it won’t. Really, really, I hope it won’t.

Albanian Adventures

March 2012
Barely kept up with taking a picture a day, but I did, and I am glad.
Lovesong
I’ve been playing around with Photoshop Elements. I love The Cure’s Lovesong, and decided to make a poster. It is not perfect, but I like it.
Wednesday Walk
Wednesday was gorgeous. So I took a walk during my lunch break. I saw many things like this lost fire extinguisher. There are so many sad stories tha could be associated with such a forsaken object, that I refused to let my mind linger on any of them. It was so weird to be able… Continue reading Wednesday Walk
