Used up an old box of Chicken Helper crispy parm chicken I found while going through a shelf in the pantry. Used the Breville Fast Slow Pro at somewhere between a sear and sauté for the chicken, lowering but not sealing the lid. Chicken stayed crazy juicy.

Lord, give me coffee to change the things I can change, and wine to accept the things I can’t.

I thought I won a couple stacks of unused North Dakota postcards in a larger lot at yesterday’s North Star Auction, but it turns out they’re a bit more than that; they’re QSL cards used by ham (hamateur — my theory) radio operators. #vintage #radio #hamradio #postcards #northdakota

I was disappointed to learn that Mazzy Star was not the name of the band’s singer, but Hope Sandoval still seems like someone who gets to take more naps than me.

I won a flat of small books at yesterday’s North Star Auction. Part of that lot was eight Little Leather Library selections - four by Rudyard Kipling*, and one each by Henrik Ibsen, Oscar Wilde, Charles Dickens, and Edgar Allen Poe. Dexy and Washington for scale. #books #antiques #vintage #reading

I won several little boxes of paper things at today’s North Star Auction, which was groovy, then went to Central Dakota Humane Society for a fresh batch of photos. Then the antique shop, and wrapped up the day by finding this gem at a thrift store before heading home. A good day.

I was outbid on this neat walnut thimble holder thingy at the auction earlier today. I reckoned someone else wanted it too because it was later covered up by other stuff in the box it was in before it all went up for bid. Neat tho.

A midcentury Bismarck High School Handbook won in a small box of paper this morning at a North Star Auction. My Bismarck peeps might recognize a number of the names — some must’ve conspired to have schools named after themselves. #northdakota #bismarck #vintage

Brought in my trail cam last night for fresh batteries and a download from the last several months (the wifi is wack) and was happy to see Stubs is still popping in every so often — must have a lot of ground to cover. #caturday #cats #northdakota

I chose psychedelic rock (psych rock) for the drive to Minot yesterday, and discovered The Bee Gees were once of that genre (and not bad!), and listened to the lyrics to “Incense and Peppermints” a bit closer than before — Who cares what games we choose. Little to win, but nothing to lose.

Egad, that is a delightful signature.

Today I showed somebody how to do something in Adobe Premiere Pro.

I’ll be riding this high into the weekend.
