Soprano's and photography

Hacked



I figured out how my page was hacked, I had entered my email and password onto two login screens, one was a fake. I remember doing it and thinking it was strange, on the other hand it also looked legit. Beware, beware.

Soprano's

Christopher and Adriana


I am so behind when it comes to watching the Soprano's. I've almost finished Season 5 and was stunned that they went and killed off Adriana. I couldn't sleep after watching the snaky Silvio murder her. He calls her a c&%t while dragging her out of the car then popping her with a bullet. The writers didn't actually show that part. We just heard it. I found Adriana's character annoying, the typical gum snapping New Jersey shore girl, however I didn't want to see her killed Her fiance Chris knew about it and hid her car at the airport. How could he condem his own fiancee to death?...and in such a brutal manner? *shaking my head* After tonight I will be finished with the 5th season and I can start on 6. Doubt I'm going to catch up in time to see the show's final last episode. It'll probably end with Tony talking about those silly ducks.

The sun shined on Sunday!

Well there were sun breaks anyway, enough to get out of the house and go hiking and beach combing with our jackets on.

Up close to nature. For the close ups I turned the camera on macro, made sure the image filled the whole lens/screen and used the flash. Some of the other pictures (landscapes) didn't do as well.

I love this picture, I found some tips in Digital Photographer magazine on how to use the macro feature on my camera and could not believe the amazing results. Due to his bright orange color we were able to spot this starfish from far away. He was sitting next to his purple brother.

crack

There has been a continuous stream of rain falling from the sky, the ground is all soppy and there are no signs of it slowing down.

We didn't get out of going to baseball practice yesterday, the diehard, winning is everything, coach had them practice under the play shed. It was pretty damn cold.

Coach shows me a pack of DoubleMint gum and confides, " I use this as a reward system for the kids."
I tell him, "I use crack cocaine for treats and rewards and my son's room is spotless, not a crumb".

The prince needed a new mitt, his old one is way to small..

Game shirt $15
Pants $10
Socks $4
Shoes $20
New mitt $27
Playing Baseball -PRICELESS
and for everything else there's Mastercard.

This weather has driven us indoors and provides a great excuse to putter around and be lazy. Which is excactly what I'm doing. I played "Marvel Ultimate Alliance" for awhile, I'm about 3/4ths through the game. Jim's been working on "
God of war 2" and is about halfway done, and when he is I'll be waiting to play it. That game looks like so phenomenal! I can get totally mesmerized watching Jim play it and I'm usually not the type that is content to just sit back and watch someone else play.

It's considered an action game but also has other elements such as puzzle solving and role-playing features, amazing graphics and a fantastic storyline. I'm pleased that Sony is still putting out great PS2 games while I patiently wait for more PS3 titles to come out. Okay I'm lying, impatiently is closer to the truth.

Cortney kicked my ass playing Clue today.

Sandwich Art

I hate it when part of our order is missing when ordering fast food and of course we never realize it until we get home. I almost always only eat fast food on the go or at home because I have this weird aversion to eating fast food inside the joint. It's depressing. I really hate it when the person holding the bag in the car keeps eating the fries which means the culprit opened the greasy bag getting the rest of the food cold and then they pass off the half empty box of fries that they ate onto someone else... Stop it. You know who you are. Fry thief!

Cortney had fun at her sleepover this weekend... we listened to the MP3 player on the long cloudy drive picking her up. Last month we bought this cool FM transmitter that plays all our MP3's though the FM tuner of our car stereo and nothing brings a family closer together than singing and car dancing too "Don't Cha" by the PussyCat Dolls on a roadtrip.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Anyway today was busy almost to busy to eat, but the afternoon was better. Much better. I found this Sandwich Art on a random website..........



Took me awhile to figure out what this one was...

A bug?




Cortney saw this and wanted to try her hand at it....she grabbed a few things outta the fridge and here is what she came up with.


Looks a little injured or something... I'm not eating it..

Ediz Hook

A couple pictures I took while at Ediz Hook on Saturday afternoon.....







Later we went for chinese and found ourselves at Tendy's again. When I first began this blog I originally planned for this to be a foodie blog. Reviews about my most favorite and most hated places to dine out. Then I realized that there aren't many restraurants in this little town. Anyway here is more pictures of Tendy's delicious food.

Lemon Chicken


I just love the Springrolls


Sizzling Seafood Plate

We're heading to Port Orchard to pick up Cortney from a weekend sleepover. I hate traveling in this kind of weather : (
