First Food Truck Night 2024 ...

 

Family At Food Truck night

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #01994

Tonight was the first Food Truck night of 2024 at Capron Park. They have a food truck night there three times in the Summer. We try to make it to as many as we can because it is a fun night to try many different foods. Tonight I chose the General Tso’s Chicken tacos. The taco portion was a scallion pancake. I had the option of two General’s chicken or one General’s chicken and one Butter Chicken. I went with the option of getting one of each in order to try more things. I probably should have just stayed with the General’s chicken because I really enjoyed that one and it worked great with the scallion pancake.

Allison weent with a Falafel, Eva with General’s chicken on Fries and Andy went with Mac and Cheese Fries and a Grilled Cheese sandwich.

The way we work this event is that everyone gets $25. We bring a blanket and also drinks from home. That way we aren’t wasting money on beverages. We each go around and decide what we want and place our orders and meet up at the blanket to enjoy our meals and share. Then, if we have any money left over we go and pick up some desserts. Eva was pretty full so she opted for no dessert. andy went with Kona Ice and Allison and I each got a Churro/ice cream creation. Mine was Strawberry shortcake and hers was S’mores. I would have liked to have some real strawberries in mine but it was still good.

Allison and Eva went with Eva’s friend Ollie to the Providence Flea Market early this afternoon and Ollie hung out for a while after that. Also we got a visit from my parents. They were up for a few events and they came by to give the kids some gifts for having good report cards. We gave them their anniversary gift, a slide scanner. When we go down in the next week I’ll help them digitize some slides and negatives.

Review: Lumibricks Izakaya Building ...

The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

Christmas Tree Is Up ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02510 Yesterday we put up the trees and today we decided to decorate the tree after dinner. Our tree is now mostly our family photo ornaments. We have a bunch of ornaments but with over 20 years of family photo ornaments it look like the predominant ornament type that we'll see. We did get a 2025 Hallmark one as well and I have to select this year's photo. 

2025 Family Ornament ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02515 We put our tree up the other day and I had already bought the 2025 Hallmark Keepsake ornament for our yearly family photo ornament. I love these ornaments on the tree. We have them from 2005 to now.
