2008s

    Getting ready to do some New Year’s Eve grilling!

    Preparing Big Green Egg for grilling. Music playing on the deck. Hello winter!!!

    Researching methods to drop the Big Green Egg temp rapidly to move from searing to roasting on 3 lb tenderloin

    Smoking away!

    Just had, what I truly believe, is the best beef I have ever eaten! O! M! G!

    A little surprised that I still know my NWA Elite number by heart.

    Needed: AirFoil SDK for iPhone

    This should exist. Background apps are still not an option, but it would be so great if AirFoil was available as an SDK option for the iPhone. It would be awesome to fire up Pandora on the iPhone and send the music to AirTunes speakers!

    That’s a lot of AirTunes!

    Naked Whiz T-Rex Steak ← Really great description of making the “perfect steak” on your Big Green Egg. I really appreciate the detail on controlling the temperature, bringing it back to cooking temp after searing, etc.

    Egghead Forum ← Place to go and learn about all things Big Green Egg.

    Preener's Eve 2008 with The New Standards

    Just ordered a Blue Monk Lemonade. Seated for The New Standards at The Dakota. Waiting the arrival of Phoebe and Dave-O!

    Phoebe after the show.

    Following the Blue Monk Lemonade with a Love Supreme. Awesome.

    Good weather for Sigur Ros.

    Shocked there is no aquarium management app for the iPhone.

    Best Typefaces of 2008 ← Nice review of some of the best fonts introduced in 2008.

    Got three AirTunes setups in the house with independent amps and speakers. This is really great. Will do a more thorough blog post on it later.

    AeroGarden getting started.

    Sitting down to watch The Real Dirt on Farmer John.

    Starting acclimation for starfish, Pygmy angel, cleaner shrimp and some coral frags in my micro-reef. They look really good. The starfish is a clear winner!

    Off to what I expect will be a memorable meal at the Bayport Cookery (archive.org).

    Settled in for the night in Jamestown, ND. Finish the drive tomorrow morning. We’ll be on the road and going pretty early.

    Very nice Christmas day with the big family in Lignite, ND.

    2:57 pm: Leaving Olson’s and driving to Bismarck today. North Dakota bound!

    11:30 pm: Longest drive to Bismarck - EVER. In hotel. Mazie asleep. Chase is very anxious.

    Christmas Tree pancake for Mazie this morning!

    Finished pancake with chocolate chip ornaments and maple syrup garland.
