Weekly Wrapup And Some Links


Morning shot and cookies It's a nice morning in San Francisco today. It's still a bit chillier than what I remember for most winters, but hey, that's okay. It's not raining, so I'm happy. And of course, I'll be in San Antonio this week so hopefully I'll stay in the sunshine. I was worried I was getting a cold but (knock on wood) I think I'm okay.

Granted, I'm still feeling the effects of a great laid-back Friday night over at Kenny's (the other Kenneth). He had a bunch of people over for wine and that boy pulls out some good stuff. There was a lot of good champagne and some great wines that I need to keep an eye out for (Sinister Hand, Malm?, Shady Lady, Don David Malbec). Plus they pulled out some nice older wines too. I was one of the few firmly camped out by the cheese and crackers.

Another great Bittman column: 101 Simple Appetizers in 20 mins or Less. I like the way the list is organized- "on bread/crackers", "on toothpicks", "on skewers", "finger foods".

More deer shooting protesting from people who don't seem like they understand animal population control. I wonder if they'd feel the same if someone planted non-native eucalyptus trees in their backyard right before fire season.

My tumblr blog - I'm just saving links and tweets for now.
