daily slice-of-life photo blog of a Gen-X dad
This little cactus was a stowaway in another plant we bought. Once we put it into its little pot and gave it some water, it sprouted the two arms. Is it stretching, or is it startled?
It was clear all day, but at twilight, we were treated to some gentle clouds moving across the sky. ☺️
It’s not the prettiest photo, but this batch of chili turned out great! I probably bumped all spices (except salt) up 25% and I liked the results. One other adjustment is that I did not add as many peppers as I usually do since I know many of the people who will be eating do not like super-spicy foods like I do. So, I just added a single jalapeño to the mix, instead of the usual combination of jalapeño, serrano, and habañero.
But the chili was a hit! I am happy. 😄
Finally added the Guadalupe Mountains National Park sticker on the Subaru. Only half a year late. 😆
I finally decided to adjust the saddle on Sophie to be the correct angle (for me). I had set the saddle pretty much level for aesthetic reasons, but felt that comfort was now more important. So the nose is now tilted up like on my other bikes and it makes for much more pleasant riding. 😀
