Baked Mac & Cheese
Though I don’t cook nearly as much as I used to when I co-founded a food blogging startup, I still enjoy it and get to do it occasionally. One of my stand-by side dishes is baked macaroni and cheese. It’s easy, delicious, and goes well with many main courses. Plus, I ❤️ cheese. With Cucumbertown closing its … Continue reading Baked Mac & Cheese
Unplugged for two days
My phone died sometime on Monday afternoon. I decided to just let it go. There was nothing I needed it for in the next two days. Even before it died, I hadn’t used it much over the weekend, opting instead to leave it in the bedroom unless I was out of the house. It was … Continue reading Unplugged for two days

Pumpkin patch
Fall is here in Pennsylvania! Time for jeans, flannel, and of course, pumpkins. This past weekend we took a trip to a local orchard to do some pumpkin picking. It was a lot of fun and we’re planning on going to another orchard soon to do some apple picking and have fun at their fall … Continue reading Pumpkin patch
Petting zoo
Today we took a short trip to a local petting zoo on a farm. They don’t have much – goats, donkeys, sheep, llamas, cows, and a pony – but the little one loves it. Continue reading Petting zoo
And the beer ferments
Watching my beer ferment is a fascinating thing to me. A by-product of yeast fermenting is CO2, which is what you see pushing the bubbles through the tube. This tube is called a “blow-off” and is an outlet for escaping gases. It prevents those gases from creating too much pressure in the fermentation vessel (this … Continue reading And the beer ferments
Wheelbarrowrider
I came across this video and thought it was just awesome. As a former skateboarder I thoroughly enjoyed how much it nailed the skate video genre with this ridiculous concept. Besides that, this guy is actually pretty skilled with a wheelbarrow. Continue reading Wheelbarrowrider
