And so #Anchorage food weekend begins: Ordered a garlic chicken pizza from The Peanut Farm. Food options are limited this time of night, but the fine Peanut Farmers send food out the door until 10:30pm.
It’s a very fine late night greasy pizza, and bigger than expected. I know what I’m having for breakfast all weekend.
I added obligatory red pepper flakes & some truffle-parm shaker seasoning (didn’t see any plain parm in the pantry), and now I’m ready to fall asleep on the couch. #AlaskaLife
Today’s #Anchorage#Alaska food was goat curry from Everest restaurant (with a garlic naan, a side of raita, and a mango lassi).
SO tasty, but why oh why is goat always so full of bones? I can’t blame the restaurant for that, because when I bought some goat (to make a goat curry) from a butcher shop in Fairbanks a few years ago, it was cut in an equally bony way. Whyyyy? I just want to enjoy some nicely cooked goat meat without having to pick every last bit of it off a little cut piece of bone.
This Is Chance!: The Shaking of an All-American City, A Voice That Held It Together by Jon Mooallem
In the spring of 1964, Anchorage, Alaska, was a modern-day frontier town yearning to be a metropolis—the largest, proudest city in a state that was still brand-new. But just before sundown on Good Friday, the community was jolted by the most powerful earthquake in American history, a catastrophic 9.2 on the Richter Scale.
Well, I'm pleased to see the muni/Bronson grift trucks picking up the snow that had our street choked down to barely a lane all winter, but it's not at all going to convince me to vote for him. #Anchorage#AnchorageElection
When you pull up driving directions to the city you're moving to and can see the curvature of the earth and stars in the background 😳 #Alaska#anchorage#NewMexico#roadtrip
The 60mph winds are back for the night. It's 36º and the power is flickering. Really fun to have to go out to the woodshed for another wheelbarrow load of firewood just in case the power goes out tonight. It's a nice feeling to be prepared, but this is no big deal here in Bear Valley. #Alaska#Anchorage#BearValley#MyAlaskaWx#HighWinds
