Friday date night at Ted’s

Cuban-Style Braised Pork / Smoked Anaheim, Chipotle & Monteray Jack Potato Gratin / Tomato, Black Bean & Cilantro Salad / Cinnamon Raisin Bread Pudding with Apple Caramel

A pretty good dinner this week, although I think I would have enjoyed it more if I had remembered to say hold the cilantro.

CHS Tweetup

Had a lot of fun meeting new people at tonight’s @CHSTweetup organized by Christina (@ErgonomixPR) and Kristin (@chasrunner) and held at Bambu over in Mt. Pleasant.

There was some of the usual blogger/Twitter crowd, but also a bunch of new Twitter faces, and even some non-Twitter users (who were of course educated on how interesting and useful Twitter can be). It’s always nice to associate new faces with the Twitter handles.

Showing a little grey

Nala’s starting to show a little bit of grey in her muzzle these days. She’s turning grey young, just like her old man.

A cool Blognic ’09

The weather was a little on the cool and grey side with a little bit of sun peeking out here and there. Attendance at this year’s Blognic was light, but the company and conversation was good.

Calvin makes some pretty tasty lumpia.

Of course the dogs didn’t mind the cool weather at all. Even spending an hour running around at the dog park didn’t even make a dent in their energy level.
