sometimes

I wonder why I write what I write and if it makes any sense. The original idea was to stay in touch with peeps from back home and keep everyone updated. Then it sort of morphed into a food blog and I don’t know what it is right now. Whatever. Just talk to me on [...]

We were in the recording studio till 8 plus this evening. It was an interesting experience for me. Didn’t know anything about recording but saw and heard some cool stuff. It was probably a good thing I had some cocoa biscuits at the office.
I’d just pulled out of my parking spot and was munching on [...]

Long week. I’m tired.
The weather has been really nice this week. 70s 80s. It feels like summer to me. Yesterday was great. I went on my first G|P photoshoot. It was fun helping the photographer get set up and then watch him adjust the lights. It took 2 hours to get everything ready and another [...]
