Hydra(nt)

Saw this crazy hydrant while taking a walk down Addison:


I stared at it for a while. I felt like there was something to figure out about it, but then I figured out there really isn't.

Vault o' Shoes

Going to Michigan for Memorial Day. I anticipate good times but terrible traffic. I wish I could just walk there. It would reduce my carbon footprint significantly.

Speaking of footprints, the weather is getting better so I have transitioned into sandal mode and have set my pair of street shoes aside. I own maybe five pairs of shoes. Some people own more. I won't say who.


This is probably 1/5 of the collection.


Holy shit why.

That's a lot of footwear.

Riverwalk

It's really not as bright as it looks.


I walk the dogs here a lot.

Edible Homework

Cathy enrolled in a cake decorating class recently. She worked hard on her first (delicious) assignment, and created an excellent piece of cake bakery (the photos don't do it justice, it was at night and the lighting was bad, but hopefully you get the idea).


A blank single-layered (tasty) canvas.


Finished product. Color coordinated for spring.


Flower detail. The red accents in the center of the flowers are key.


Side detail.

I'm anxiously waiting for the results of her next (scrumptious) class.
