Oktoberfest at the Bavarian Inn

Here are some shots from last weekend's Oktoberfest, one of my favorite days of the year. You can see the Alphorn being played, bell ringers, and dancers. What you can't see is all of the delicious food I ate.

Holla!

Table Update @2

Grouting begins today...

Table Update

Updates on the table project which is taking forever. Thanks, new job.

Pizza Party

Here are some photos from our gourmet pizza party. Good luck trying to imagine what they tasted like:
1. Bacon, BBQ Sauce, Tomatoes, Basil, Colby Jack
2. Feta and caponata
3. Cantaloupe, goat cheese, capers, sautéed julienned beets, rosemary

Challah!

Happy new year to ME! Here are the early stages of my new Rosh Hashanah raisin challah recipe. Look for another post with photos of the baked bread.

County Fair

Some shots from the county fair. The cow photo is an illusion - I'm not trying to put my finger in its butt.

Collabattack!

Here are some photos from when we (Kristy, Karen, and I) set up our installation in the Shepherd Faculty Art show. I did the sound design, which, unfortunately, doesn't come through on here.

Table

I'm working on a mosaic on the top of my porch table. The plan is to make it look like an illuminated manuscript from a Medieval "Gloria." I haven't put any grout in so the staves and notes don't pop out yet. Next comes the big colorful G in the upper left corner.

Potpourri

Here is a photo of one of the many Naked Ladies that popped up in my backyard (I put the bulbs in earlier this year). And here's a shot of Camden Yards from when I went to see the Indians play the Orioles.
