Earl Grey tea with habanero-infused honey is the punch to the back of the throat I didn't know I needed to start the day.

New Orleans-style food (i.e.: Cajun and Creole) is so rich and delicious. The levels of flavors, textures, and spices make every bite a culinary adventure. Shrimp etouffee is a stew that is smothered in a roux-based sauce that is silky and goes so well with rice. #larryskitchen

sitting down with game designers is so fascinating to me. they generally look at the world differently and are able to see the game within. fun, joy, creativity, entertainment are their goals. I've been able to talk with some gaming legends in the past, but this Richard Garfield interview is incredible.

this looks like it could get me back into the Assassin's Creed flow again.

I think Rainier is telling me I should have a pie with lots of meringue for my birthday. 🥧

went to an old-time drive-in restaurant tonight in the shadow of Mt. Rainer. really good locally sourced food. all that was missing was the '50s-style music.

I'm a reasonable man (most of the time), so I know this isn't snow falling outside of my window in the last week of April.

Some days, Rainer just looks bigger. I think it is slowly stalking me and getting closer.

that was fast but not unexpected. the LEGO Ideas Dungeons & Dragons: Red Dragon's Tale set is on backorder. we nerds and geeks don't mess around when it comes to really cool stuff.

We visited Triple XXX as our first restaurant in the area when we moved to the PNW a couple of years ago. Great food and experience. Disappointed in the (temporary) closure but excited to see what Burgermaster does with the location. Still need to try their food though.

interesting conversation with a recruiter for a position I know very well. we talked baseball (particularly the AL East) for the first 5-10 minutes. this is not the first time this has happened. honestly, I think it is pretty cool.

"Rarely in the pages of a D&D book do you find the kind of guidance that becomes a fulcrum around which the entire storyline revolves. That’s because the folks that write D&D books can’t ever know who will be showing up to play. It’s up to the humans at the table to bring that kind of sustenance along with them on game nights if they want to..."

Great writing by Charlie Hall.

when I saw the product tie-ins for D&D's 50th anniversary, this is the one that rose to the top of my list. D&D-flavored Converse Chuck Taylor All-Stars in 4 different designs. I know which one is my favorite.

I don’t normally make it a point to go to a restaurant for an appetizer, but these Reuben egg rolls are worth it. I’ll be back for these (and a refreshing 🍺).
