  My Darling B, O’Folks, Seanster, T-Dawg, travel

  Let’s Go To The Shimoda Salmon Festival With The O-Family! I think it was only a week or two after we got here, but that could be my addled memory making a hash again out of everything I’ve ever seen. Anyway, we heard about the salmon festival, where you pay a couple hundred yen to… Read.

• The O-Folk in Ireland

  My Darling B, O’Folks, play, Seanster, T-Dawg, travel, vacation

  Just yesterday, Tim was asking me about our trip to Ireland: Where we went, what we did, will we ever eat smoked salmon as great as that again? I could easily answer the last question (sadly, no), but to answer the first two questions I had to dredge the backwaters of my memory, hardly the… Read.

  daily drivel, My Darling B, O’Folks, story time, this modern world

  You know how people say there’s literally nothing you can’t get from the internet? I’m literally starting to believe it. My Darling B just bought a case of hummus chips on the internet last week. Backtracking just a little bit: There’s this snack food called hummus chips that she simply adores, and when I say… Read.

  garden, hobby, housekeeping, My Darling B, O’Folks, Our Humble O’Bode, play, yard work, yet another rant

  My Darling B has a whole new attitude about mice since she opened her garden shed and discovered they’d pooped and peed on just about everything in there. Before she was on Mother Nature’s side, making me trap them live so we could release them in a nearby city park, but now that she has… Read.

  At the Central Waters Brewery 16th Anniversary Party last weekend: “What are you drinking?” “Barleywine.” “May I try some?” “You don’t like barleywine.” “Maybe I do.” She didn’t. Read.

  My Darling B, O’Folks

  My Darling B and I have been fighting a nasty upper respiratory infection since about, oh, I don’t know, Christmas? Yeah, that’s about right. Mine’s not as nasty as hers is, though. About once a week I wake up with a stuffy head and lots of boogers, and occasionally I have to cough up a… Read.

  beer, daily drivel, food & drink, My Darling B, O’Folks, restaurants, Seanster

  Yay. The cat has finally curled up in my lap. Can’t do a thing while he’s turning in circles, looking for the right place to settle down. Can’t type a word, can’t sip my coffee, can’t even set down my coffee cup within easy reach because he would just keep sticking his snotty nose in… Read.

  beer, festivals, food & drink, My Darling B, O’Folks, play

  She only has two hands, but that doesn’t stop My Darling B from being a three-fisted drinker! We were at the Great Amherst Beer Festival, hosted by Central Waters Brewing yesterday when B found herself trying to juggle three cups of beer while we took photos of the goings-on. She turned out to be one… Read.

  Quick and Dirty version of our trip to California last week, typed up from my notes because I’m not sure how long it’ll take to expand on them and I’ve got lots to do this week but I wouldn’t want to deprive you. So: Got into San Francisco in the afternoon on Friday. Taxi driver… Read.
