Barnes and Noble Cafe

Today I went to the Chandler Fashion Mall's Barnes and Noble cafe after work, had what may be the best Reuben sandwich of my life, and wrote performance review input. It's a dirty job but somebody's got to do it, I guess.

I bought a pineapple and intend to try to lightly grill it for an effect similar to that enjoyed at Fogo the other day, but I don't have high hopes for hitting the mark. Someone else should come visit me here in Chandler so I have an excuse to go back.

Cowboy Pasta

I made Rachael Ray's 30-minute meal "Cowboy Pasta" today. It included bacon, which helped offset the entire onion. I liked it pretty well but it was odd enough that I think I'll let it go a while before I make it again. I bought actual bamboo skewers, so I need to make those satays again.

Wasson Peak Hike and Post-Peak Refueling

Today I hiked Wasson Peak in Tucson with a visiting ex-Unicon-er and others in the Arizona Trailblazers hiking group. Good time.



After cleaning up post-hike, I met a couple of the hikers at Fogo E Brasa, an all-you-care-to-eat Brazillian steakhouse. That was one excellent meal, the fresh sliced lightly toasted pineapple especially.

Some friends of mine have started a new live video feed of their lives. I don't get it.

Hot Cross Buns

Hot Cross Buns, in moderation, may be my favorite food. A highlight of the season.

Yavapai Lodge

Yavapai Lodge at Grand Canyon with my parents and sister. Good times.
