Finally back in a place where I can resume my homemade projects/hobbies :~) I've been on the road a lot this last year so it's been hard to pursue non-computer related hobbies but this was the first week I felt settled in quite a while
Fired up some pizza, froze 2 gallons of homemade chicken stock, and acquired a pressure canner so I can start canning some soups and sauces π the weather finally took a turn for the better in New York so I'm generally excited for the warm season to start fishing, gardening, hiking, etc. again, been cooped up for way too long π
Some pizza I made ;) :
Wooooaaaaa, that pizza looks freakin' amazing! YUM!!
The warm weather is rolling into Carolina right now too and it has been a very welcome change. I'm planning a little camping trip up to Grandfather Mountain next month to get my fill of woodsy activities... can't wait!
That is some gorgeous pizza!
Nice!
I have been overwhelmed with joy seeing the reactions to my article about developers careers. I have been obsessed by this topic since at least 3 years, because there is so much waste of human talents, and it seems that now, at last, at very long last, all pieces of the puzzle are finally coming together.
