A Couple More Pics…

Still in the same theme of you see way more on a bike than when diving a car (and have much more opportunity to appreciate it, and take a few photos), I thought I’d share a few more. This was the sky as I pedaled home from the health club this evening. Breathtaking, I thought.Continue reading “A Couple More Pics…”

First Frost…

Like much of the northern hemisphere it’s getting cold here this time of year and last night we had the first frost of the season. Though I truly do love the change of seasons I am more than a bit ambivalent of the advent of the cold months…I feel unprepared this year, physically and mentally.Continue reading “First Frost…”

Sometimes when it rains…

It seemed quiet on the streets tonight; maybe I was just imagining it. It was also raining…not heavy, just a light drizzle; slightly heavier than a mist…a drizzle. It was also a typical autumn evening…cool and damp; I could smell wood smoke in the air as I pedaled. And as I pedaled and coasted IContinue reading “Sometimes when it rains…”

Two Excellent Meals Made From Leftovers

Part of being a good cook is not only knowing how to cook well but also what to do with leftovers, and this is just as important–I think–whether you are cooking in a home kitchen or a commercial one. Two meals I cooked today are good examples. Pictured above is a closeup of chile conContinue reading “Two Excellent Meals Made From Leftovers”

(just a few of the many) Reasons I Choose to Ride a Bike

The above picture is Pilgrim-St. Luke’s UCC, the church of which I am a member. I love taking pictures of old Buffalo buildings–especially churches–but that’s not what this post is about. It’s about what I was thinking as I pedaled to church this morning. It was a beautiful autumn morning…couldn’t have been any nicer; youContinue reading “(just a few of the many) Reasons I Choose to Ride a Bike”
