Gotta Keep An Eye On That French Fry Oil
Feb. 9th, 2025 08:19 am
Projected monster snowstorm was a bust, thank the Lord! Hideous White Stuff did fall from the Sky, but only about two inches of it.
It’s still gonna be a mess because what the Hideous White Stuff fell on was a solid plate of ice. Footing will be treacherous.
But at least the driveway won’t have to be plowed.

Meanwhile, Loraine & I met up for lunch in New Paltz at a newly opened Brazilian restaurant.
The newly opened Brazilian restaurant’s food was Not Great, but I was predisposed to ❤️LUV❤️ them anyway because plucky owner! Plucky owner’s wife! Doing all their own front & back of house!

I don’t know how long they’ll last, though, if they don’t figure out a way to keep the French fry oil from going stale.
It was fun to catch up on news from the old nabe, and afterwards, we went across the street to the World’s Best Chocolatier (which maintains a branch in New Paltz.) I stocked up on hazelnut truffles.

I should have done useful work when I got back to the casa, but I didn’t because it is increasingly difficult for me to concentrate on anything.
I lack discipline.

Today is the Superbowl, a Great American Orgiastic Celebration about which I do not give a fuck, except to pray that RTT doesn’t do any serious sports betting.
