Day 366 – Just Like That

Angrygardner — Thu, 24 Feb 2011 03:35:21 +0000

It is over. My family threw a party… I took a picture, and that was it. Done. Finished. The End.

Here is the cake that my wife made to celebrate the occasion. My daughter gave me 1 Smartie for every day and a note saying Dad, 365 days Smartier

Stick with me; I am pretty sure I’ll be back at it in a week

PS One confession I started this project on 2/15/2010 (Day 1) and finished on 2/21/2011 (Day 366). You do the math because obviously I can’t.

Day 363 – Flaky

I have found I really like close up detail shots. They are my go-to when the creative juices are scarce. Red pepper flakes I put them on pretty much everything.

Day 359 – That’s Love

I had very limited time on Valentines day for picture taking. I had hoped to set something up with the V Chocolate that I had just bought. My daughter was really excited about taking pictures of the candy she had gotten from school. I didn’t really want to, but… well here’s her picture.

Day 359 – The 2nd Best

I love the cookies for Valentine’s day. Second to having Christy for my Valentine they are my favorite. (see what I did there, I’m learning )

Day 355 – Cheesy Bread

Angrygardner — Sun, 13 Feb 2011 00:32:41 +0000

Did I mention I love bread and I LOOOOVE cheese. The two together how could that be any thing but awesome. Yeah, OK maybe I am overstating the value of simple cheesy bread, but I do love it. That explains the plumpness of my figure

Day 352 – Battle Royale

Angrygardner — Tue, 08 Feb 2011 20:33:32 +0000

I love the Superbowl, not for the game, not for the commercials, but for the food. This year I made baked chedderwaurst with sauerkraut. Holy yummy. I also made my favorite marinated shrimp salad. The battle today, while not the Packers vs. the Steelers is between my two pictures.

Which do you prefer.

Day 341 – Daily Bread

Angrygardner — Sun, 30 Jan 2011 02:11:51 +0000

Did you know that being a baker is one of the earliest known professions? Probably, because making great bread is hard. While in Logan I was finally able to visit Crumb Brothers bakery. I have LOVED their bread since the first time I ever tried it. Did you also know that bread and cheese we my favorite foods. I don’t think that there is much better than a great piece of crusty bread, with something simple to go with it.

Day 337 – Disapointment

Angrygardner — Tue, 25 Jan 2011 20:45:00 +0000

You would think after 39 years I would be used to disappointment. Nope, the Birthday was good, the food was excellent, and the Family was awesome, the pictures Meh. This was the burrito that I made it was incredible Honey-Lime Pulled pork for the filling and fresh-made pico-de-gallo etc. for toppings. I just was hoping for more with this picture. The pork is just too compacted and the focus I think was a little soft.

Day 327 – Ingredients

Angrygardner — Sat, 15 Jan 2011 19:26:20 +0000

I love making food. Rarely do I use a recipe so every time is an adventure. These are some of the things that I used on my last Chinese adventure Peanut Beef Ramen.

To be honest I struggle with this picture. I hate it, then I will come back to it and the things I hate I kinda like and back and forth like this since I took the picture. Some honest feedback on this picture would be greatly appreciated. I would love to hear you suck and this is why.
