    September photo ๐Ÿ“ท challenge day 22 Road

    Almost skipped this one… One of the side streets in Florance, Italy.

    A paved road with a row of scooters next to each other blocking about half of the street. Yellow-painted walls are closing in on the street, making it more of an alleyway.

    September photo ๐Ÿ“ท challenge day 20 Disruption

    Who hasn’t had this sort of disruption at work?? (If you work on a Mac or Linux, sit down…). After all these years, this “feature” still makes me want to throw laptops out the window.

    Iโ€™m having fun with the different photo modes on the iPhone. I didnโ€™t explore them in depth before, but there are some interesting options.

    Three kitchen towels, and a pillow on a chair with a vintage finish. The primary color is red-brown with some streaks of blue and patterns in the fabric.๏ฟผ

    ๐ŸŽถ These hot sauces are not kidding around. I only dare to use one drop on a bun. Any more than that, and I have a hole in my tongue. ๐ŸŽถ

    Three bottles of hot sauce of different kinds. From left to right: ๏ฟผBurn, Fiya Fiya, and aka miso

    2024-09-19: I still have ‘em. Still only use one drop at a time. They’ve been in my fridge for about three years now.

    When we visited Copenhagen, we saw these statues underwater in the canal. They were intended to be presented this way, with the algae and fish swimming between them.

     five human figures made of stone, underwater. They are green and blue, with algae growing around them an on them.

    Here’s a goofy one from pre-COVID days. I call it “that moment when you finally got yourself out to the gym and realize you left your keys behind ๐Ÿ”‘ "

    September photo ๐Ÿ“ท challenge day 11: Retrospect

    In retrospect, I enjoy small parties with a few good folks. This one is from around Christmas two years back. Also, now I know what a Range Hood is.

    I talked about my sand timer (hourglass) before; it’s how I measure my productivity/work cycles and downtime/rest cycles. I try to have them as even as possible, though it’s usually 2 cycles of work, 1 cycle of rest…

    After traveling from Bangor Maine to Portland and now to Boston to catch a train to NYC, that’s the language I have in front of me.

    Buckle up, bucko, this is a big country.

    A magical path in the woods…

    September photo ๐Ÿ“ท challenge day 3: Precious

    I can’t think of anything precious that is not some sort of an inside joke, so here’s something I enjoy: homemade pizzas when my partner makes them. Precious.

    A homemade pizza. The left side has sundried tomatoes and large chunks of mozzarella (vegan) cheese; the left has broccoli rub and mushrooms. It is placed on a large piece of parchment paper.
