Gosh, I love farmers’ markets. Only place to get all of these in one spot. Not sure I want the whole dragonfruit, tho. And…oof…talking to the Kona Coffee farmers…

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. When in Hawaii…order the eggs benedict with kalua pork because you can’t get kalua pork anywhere else. And mom ordered the meatloaf benedict because she hadn’t had meatloaf in ages. 😆

Hmmm. The Amazon “About Me” section is broad brush, easily confused, & jumps to conclusions. I don’t cook extensively…mostly on the weekends due to work. Plus, I buy things for my kid, mom, etc.

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

Weird. Hawaii has cheaper gas than the mainland. That NEVER happens. Not sure why, might not last, but not complaining.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Ahh. Nothing like artisanal, Hawaiian cafes with local Hawaiian coffee. Got a Maui Mellow roast while mom got a cappaccino and blueberry scone.

What else to do while checking in early at SFO, than check out Green Apple Books & the Staff Selections? And some classics.

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Sooo, tried to catch the setting sun AND a dark sky. One set of pics came out ok. The other…ehhh. Need to find my other lens for night shots. But it was good to get out again.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

Ahh, stopping by a top-rated, French-inspired, artisanal bakery before going hiking to try a Gougères (cheese puff), Financier (small almond cake or teacake, similar to petits fours), & some other things I can’t pronounce, but ate too quickly.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Ouch. $6.36 a gallon of gas. This sucks.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Ain’t nothing like golden hour. Colors stand out better now than the afternoon.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Oof. $6.29 for a gallon of gas.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

Gosh, I love farmers’ markets. Last week for nectarines, corn is still in season, and chile peppers are in season.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

So did Mr Bloomberg Terminal guy say the economy is still doing good?

100

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

I wonder what the Bloomberg terminal guys are saying about the economy now? Still great? $6 for a gallon is not great.

100

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

Staving off existential dread by stopping by one of my favorite artisanal bakeries for croissants and danishes. And they have new seasonal pastries 😍

001

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

gosh, I love farmers’ markets. And looks like peppers are in season. Might use the mild ones for a sauce and the spicy ones for a soup.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 01/09/2026

Some co-workers performed at open mic night at a pub, so had a snack & Guinness. One did poetry and others played in a band. Second set had a noise complaint. Deputy showed up, but I guess it helps the guitar player works in their IT department. LoL. Small world.

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Buddy at work clued me in to a taco truck that does Torta Thursdays, all tortas for $10! NICE! I got the Torta Pounder: al pastor, jalapenos, w/Mexican & Mozarella cheese, & extra cheese in all its gooey glory. Then he says: “You know what torta is slang for, right?” Me: 🤨 oh, no…

100

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

Was confused for a second because I didn’t order “Travels in the Land of Serpents and Pearls” but it is part of the anthology of coffee from Preface Coffee…

100

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 22/08/2026

Peter Piper picked a pint of pfiery (or piquant?) peppers…cause I ain’t picking a peck (8 quarts or a 1/4 bushel) of pickled peppers. Gosh, I love farmers’ markets.

100

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

Gosh, I love farmers’ markets. Tempted to get the “wonky veg” at half price, but got white peaches & nectarines…

110

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 01/08/2026

Gosh, I love farmers’ markets. First to find out when apples are in season. Thought it was a few more weeks, but not complaining.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 25/07/2026

Argh. Tomorrow’s First World problems.

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 25/07/2026

Gosh, I love farmers’ markets.

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 25/07/2026

Dammit. Even the 70mm IMAX Theater in Sacramento is SOLD OUT for every showing of the Odyssey.

020

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

Well, I’m not handicapped, but I might be tempted if those seats weren’t ALL the way up front or ALL the way to the back. And this is for the 10:00 PM showing, which would end around 1:00 AM.

110

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

One of the 70mm IMax theaters has a 3:00 AM(!) showing where all the good seats are taken! Three O’clock in the morning!

110

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

Oof. I would worry. Just from the possibilities of what could happen. Especially from talking to the docents at the historic Nike-Hercules air defense missile site, who manned the site back in the 60’s.

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 14/07/2026

Anyway, found out there is a “Rate my Chives” account that grades how well you chop chives based on cut, color, consistency, etc. So, decided to chop chives for potatoes and…nailed it? LoL.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 12/07/2026

Trying the Akeza coffee thta came in the mail for pour-overs. Definitely tasting the baking spices, not so much the danish or blackberry. It’s slightly “spicy”, hard to describe. Good change of pace.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

Finally trying my Hualalai Kona coffee from my trip. Doing a pour over to better taste the flavors. Notes of plum & caramel, not so much the hibiscus. Subtle flavors, I see why the Japanese tourist love this.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

Finally. Project for finance done, reports for mid-year done. Time to get a drink.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 22/06/2026

Mom took me to lunch at Nico’s. Got the pan-seared ahi tuna with furikake (Japanese dry seasoning for rice). Doesn’t look like much, but tasty & cooked nicely (medium-rare).

100

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 21/06/2026

LoL, true. But for another day.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 11/06/2026

Could tell something was going on by how liud neighbors are yelling, but didn’t know it was this

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 07/06/2026

Been there, photographed that. It’s a short, but troublesome, hike. It’s loud and one of the most unique waterfalls I’ve seen.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 06/06/2026

Gosh, I love farmers’ markets. Peaches & berries in season.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 06/06/2026

Finally. Got a new Colombian coffee, washed process, so trying different temperatures for the pour-over. Instead of 195-196F, trying 189-190F.

100

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 30/05/2026

Watch out, because I think this is their best one & someone might get a surprise 🤣

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 30/05/2026

Decided to try their savory dishes, but almost got the peach tart. Maybe next time.

100

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 30/05/2026

Ouch, I feel attacked 😆. Stopping by the artisanal bakery and checking out their birthday cards while in line.

100

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 29/05/2026

Moved desks. Across from someone with this sign on their’s. Buckle up, cause next week is going to be a ride. LoL

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 24/05/2026

So many choices and so little time. And they’re out of baguettes (on a long holiday weekend with Bottle Rock the next valley over? Go figure). But the cards keep me laughing.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 23/05/2026

Gosh, I love farmer’s markets. Finding out berries are in season, as well peaches & necatrines (also know as (a.k.a.) stone fruit since the seed is like a stone).

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 17/05/2026

Oh, definitely getting this card. LoL.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 16/05/2026

Aaaand a coworker sent me this. No idea what THAT means. 🤷‍♂️

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 13/05/2026

dang, my bad. I make a great chili: toast my spices, ground in a pestle & mortar, add a good amount of aromatics, char & peel the skin off my my peppers, slowly simmer so the meat absorbs the flavors, & finished w/toppings of your choice: cheddar cheese, sour cream, chips. Guess I’ll ban myself 😆

050

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 10/05/2026

LoL, I ought to get this for someone’s birthday just in case I need it, but *sighs* did not. Maybe another time. There’s always next week.

000

Speedegg @speedegg.bsky.social · 10/05/2026

Dang. Specialty, artisanal bakery is REALLY crowded on Mother’s Day.
