Easter at the Yuen’s. Chris fried up 85 lbs chicken & I didn’t even get a photo of it. I was too focused on the kids.

Dogsitting Koa
In preparation for Easter at Tami & Chris’s we took Koa off their hands for the afternoon. This is always full of challenges. We decided to spend the day in the backyard and Koa was quietly waiting for the ducks to show. She would ignore them til she felt she could pounce. Of course the …
NYC 2014
We took a train from Greenwich to Grand Central Station (forgot to take a photo). Paz met us and immediately whisked us to their favorite Thai Restaurant, Sripraphai. We consumed a whole fried fish & with fishy breath we jetted off to the Queens Museum to watch a press conference where Mayor Bill de Blasio …

6963 mile Lengua Throwdown
When I taste something good, I try to recreate it while adding my own touch. Mommi’s lengua is one of those dishes. Now while Mommi was not here we thawed a portion from the freezer. I topped mine with 3 types of mushrooms. In fairness I should wait til her next visit for the actual throwdown.
Christmas Eve 2013
We went to Jon & Kathy’s for our annual Christmas Party. I tried to keep my picture taking to a minimum, but had to take portraits. I need to change my methodology. I was so intent on getting the bokeh from the Christmas tree lights and I was shooting at f2-2.8. This created some focus …
Nico Yuen
Tonight I had an appointment with Nico. He was more interested in eating than posing for photos. Okay a week later take 2. I tried something different, a Gary Fong collapsible powersnoot.
