The plan for today was to head to a restaurant called Salvador Molly's and try out their Habanero Fritter challenge. Chris and I have been talking about this since he saw it on the show "Man vs Food" on the Food Network. Naturally Tyler came along to try the challenge too ( Read more... )

I wasn't up too early today because I knew that there was no rush to getting going. I was up and ready by 10:30 though, because there's just no stalling when you're excited. XD

I was up at an average weekend time of 9 am today. After getting ready for the day I got on the computer to check messages and work on pictures. I had hoped to get some things done before heading out so I could upload them to flickr at Tom's. Well that didn't happen because I really had too much to do. Bo had upset me the day before and wanted ( Read more... )

I don't know why I was so tired last night but once I got home and into bed I slept like a log until 1pm today. So I was only just waking up and getting ready for the day when my son decided that I could take phone calls while I was brushing my teeth. -_ ( Read more... )

The title came from Sara's comment that it was a NOVA gathering. Both Don and I (and I think some other people as well) bristled at the comment. Hehe. I commented that I like to refer to it as Not NOVA ( Read more... )

Today was originally going to be an unplanned Saturday with me at home doing nothing in particular at all. But Friday after some reading the billionth post on Facebook from a friend of mine about a Chili Cook-off he was participating it, it dawned on me that we should go (as something to do if nothing else). Because Tim is also a friend of Chris ( Read more... )

My original plans for the day were to join Chris and his friend Ben (and apparently a bunch of cousins) down at the Portland Waterfront for Oregon Brewers Fest. The trip was intended to be Ben's bachelor party since his fiancé said no strippers. (Which I think is kind of stupid since it's supposed to be a bachelor party 9_9). My sisters were ( Read more... )

Tomorrow the LLAC is having an all day anime gathering. I volunteered to bring some Japanese snacks so I also planned a quick trip down to Portland to pick up some stuff from Uwajimaya today ( Read more... )
