It turns out babies make it harder to blog. I'm trying to spend whatever time I can sleeping, so this has fallen by the wayside. But I do have some things to share with whatever tiny audience will see this.
Looking at the baby picture I put up in February, I'm struck by how alien he looked. So swollen! And such a blank stare! He's gotten much cuter and more interesting in the past six months. Photo:
It's nothing that needs blogging about, but it sure is a lot of fun making his food. His most recent new food experience was a purée of kale, garlic, and apples. If he keeps eating new things so enthusiastically my job will be very easy.
ourdinner - I've been putting up pretty much all of our meals on our tumblog, appropriately titled "our dinner." I actually started it so my brother could see how we use our ingredients and leftovers in the house, in order to learn how to better feed himself. So far it's working. So at least if I'm not writing here, there's the tumblr.
I will have a food stand at the upcoming
ScanFest - a Scandinavian food and culture festival in New Jersey on September 2nd. I'll be bringing out a ton of rugbrød (Scandinavian sourdough rye - a delicious brick) as well as making smørbrød (Scandinavian open-faced sandwiches) on that same bread. I'm very excited to be operating at an event independent of the restaurant, and on the off chance that you read this and live in the area, come on out and say hi.
Lastly, I just won first place at
BurgerMania again this year. It was not a surprise, to put it as modestly as possible.
Almost forgot this last bit, but I also got married. It was fun and here is a
music video I made.
