Since both Alex & Aleki are here now, we decided to do a sushi dinner at Angel Fish tonight.
Sushi Wushi
Merry Christmas Bokeh
I bought a Bokeh Masters Kit with the intention of creating a snail mail Christmas card. Well of course I waited too long, but it did give me a chance to experiment with it.
Anyway, Merry Christmas.
Airhead
It just arrived today… battery is charging now. Gotta wait.
Honolulu 4 a day
…and all I got was a nightshot from my hotel room.
Actually I found a few more…
Great Ball of Fire…
Tonight the sun was especially spectacular.
Murphy
Tonight we were invited next door for dinner at Paul & Brenda’s. Dinner was excellent but Sandy fell in love with Murphy. If Judy only knew…
Eye-Fi
Just received my 1st Eye-Fi card. This SD card not only stores 8GB of photos but it simultaneously transmits the photos to my wireless network. While this is a great concept, I’m finding that it takes quite a while to upload a 12MP RAW file. I can also upload to Facebook. This would be much better than the horrible cell phone photos that are so prolific on FB. I would have to shoot a smaller jpg file though.
Catalogs
I believe in being a consumer, after all its what keeps this economy rolling. As such that means I get my share of catalogs. This is especially true during the holiday season. While watching the news tonight there was a PSA for catalogchoice.org, which is a opt-out catalog service. I quickly ran upstairs and gathered all my catalogs and entered them individually into the database. I soon hope there will be more trees. But that means more squirrels! I can’t win.
Oakland Museum
Every first Sunday of the month, general admission to the Oakland Museum is free, so we thought we would take this opportunity to check it out. We only viewed 1 of the 3 levels. We are saving the rest for when our visitors show up.
Mac & Cheese
In preparation for the upcoming holiday visitors. We needed to get some menu items in order. So tonight I tried a Langostino Mac & Cheese dish.
It was suppose to be Lobster M&C but that’s too good for our guests. I wonder if I can get artificial lobster meat? Probably next to the cheese whiz, aisle 7.
