Does anyone have a recommendation where to get a dining room chandelier? Struck out at Lamps Plus. Looking for mid century style in 24”-28” diameter. I think a PH5 (20”) is too small and I’m NOT paying (@.@) for an artichoke. Maybe a Nelson?

Gotta love when fedex puts a package on a truck to be delivered today then updates the status to “no attempt made” and says maybe we’ll get around to it in the next few days.

Raven asking if I have any cashews after he demolished the tortilla chips someone tossed on the ground.

Saw Shovelman, Kr3ture, and Moontricks last night. Got to stand right againstdthe stage the whole show and practices some photography. Phone cameras can do alright these days.

Traditional southern new years meal of ham, collard greens, and black eyes peas. Supposed to be eaten on new years day for good luck but finding the peas and a ham hock proved difficult.

The houston airport smells like fried.

French onion soup time. Heat up a big pot on medium low and thinly slice 6 or so yellow onions. Once the pot is hot add a 1/4 cup of olive oil and a couple tablespoons of butter. Add the onions and toss to cover with the liquids. Leave em for ~20m; make sure they don’t burn.

My paws slipped while waiting for the stock to reduce and I ended up with banana bread.

Now that I have a working stove again, and it’s winter, and I’m sick I guess it’s time to make some french onion soup. Day 1, step one: roast you some beef bones at 450F for ~40min, flipping them half way.

Here we have @rukatiger.bsky.social ready to send it this season!!!

Wrapping up a five day ski trip in CO. Thanks to @stellarantares.bsky.social and @bluecoyote.bsky.social for organizing and all the other fuzzies for coming and making it a great time.

Yay! I finally have a place to sit again. The rug probably needs to be swapped for a 9x12 though.

Picked up a pretty dope hat this weekend.

Some cool totems from EDC this year. Might have to create one for next time.

That moment when your brain freezes because the time on your phone updated inflight due to gps but your laptop is still two timezones behind.

Wrapped up my ski season this weekend with a three day trip to Mammoth. It was a great five months with friends old and new and visiting lots of new places. Looking forward to see what next season brings.

Who all is going to EDC this year? Wanna meet up for food and good tunes?

Sunset on the lake.

Haha, the conductor on this train is giving some Brits sass for drinking coffee instead of beer or wine.
