It has pockets!!

Just had politician canvassing at my door. I asked: “What are your goals?” and “How many millions in a billion?” First question is obviously relevant. The second less so, but often the most telling, as they are handling millions and billions of our dollars.

Once a year I grab some of Washington’s best apples, set aside five hours of my day, and make this bomb Diggity ass SALTED CARAMEL APPLE PIE And to take the Autumn up a notch, serve it with local pumpkin ice cream This year the pie looks terrible, but the flavor is second to none 

Play from street above. Decent lattice work,  egg wash with decorating Sugar, but edges and browning are ridiculously inconsistent and filling leaked everywhereCollapsed slice showing a Frank-Gerry-esque construction of spiced toasted apples, layered pie crust, and additional drizzle of the salted caramel Bild

Was gonna have a nice relaxing Saturday, have a friend over, make some bread. But in the last 12 hours he got a third-degree oil burn across his right arm, and a 30-foot tree branch fell on my house. We are both fine, but damn.

It was cool the CEO swung by today to tell me I had done “a GREAT job with [ task ]” It was better when a random old dude was like “Someday… you’ll be 40!” 🤣

I’m not much of a thrill-seeker but bailing on obligations from my job and my ex in the same morning is pretty exhilarating

🎶Millions of peaches Peaches for me And now I’m trying to find a good recipe for cobbler with a crumble topping that doesn’t suck

John Carpenter‘s The Thing is a much more powerful, curious, and titillating who-done-it than Knives Out. I will not be taking questions at this time

I think that the people who review things like cauliflower hash browns and yolkless egg bites have gone so long without eating normal food that they have lost their frame of reference for what constitutes "good"

From today’s “are you fucking kidding me” file: 1 There’s a Snapchat account called Sufjan AI, and there’s no one I would less like to be friends with 2 Jimothy door hinges?! Damn Etsy, you really are on it

I completed what I would consider my first “real painting.” It’s a photograph I took of Waikiki Beach, converted into a paint by numbers as a base. I’ve been picking at it changing colors and adding things for a couple months now. It’ll never be “done,” but I have it in my office at work now :)

Acrylic painting of late afternoon sky and Seascape over south-facing Waikiki Beach.

Not that anyone remembers, but a few months ago I posted a video of an unidentified animal lumbering across our front lawn at night. It was like a raccoon, but definitely not shaped like one. Too round and a short tail. No one was able to ID it, but consensus held it was likely a raccoon. 1/2
