Two weeks...

Wow! The first two weeks of school just flew by. This past Saturday Taka and I had our 1st Annual Corn Roast. Despite the rain it was a big success. Much corn was eaten, but we still had a ton left. Cool things that happened - co-worker Amanda hung around until Midnight. - Dave helped shut us down at 2am, plus he is into work today so that means he didn't kill himself going home. (I worry about him) - Carl our neighbor came over and stayed 'til the end. He is a pretty cool guy. - got to meet some of Taka's Architecture friends. - Heidi stopped by with her new husband and 9 week old daughter. (so tiny and beautiful) - Thom and son Twain stopped by. It has been almost 7 years since we've seen them. - Craig and Eric were able to reconnect after a decade or so apart. - we bought a crazy, kick-ass new grill. 72,000 btu's baby! 15 huge ears of corn at once! shiny silver grilling goodness. - stopped raining so we could have a bonfire. - great to see everyone who was able to show up. I think that maybe next year we will have to do it before fest so that we can see some of those who couldn't make it. Sunday Taka had to work so I suggested when I dropped him off that I grill up a bunch more corn and bring it in for students. He loved that idea. So I grilled up 72 more ears of corn and the students at Architecture were happy. Sunday I also spent part of the rainy day baking. I took photos to post of the yumminess. Today back to the grind.
