chris & angela got married

first meal, originally uploaded by skippy haha.

my brother chris got married to an absolute sweetheart angela this weekend in newport rhode island. everything went amazingly well - the weather, the food, the happy families and friends - i can't imagine a more beautiful wedding weekend. they got married twice, once inside st. gregory's, the catholic church where chris & i were baptized, and the next day at the inn at castle hill overlooking the water with sailboats in the background. it was all pretty freakin awesome.

this is a picture of their first meal as husband and wife at the fine dining eatery jigger's in east greenwich. all the pictures are here - http://www.flickr.com/photos/skippyhaha/sets/72157621749269662/

fruit fly trap

should you ever find your kitchen overrun by fruit flies, i don't suggest trying to swat them all with a fly swatter. they are too small - they can escape through the wires of the swatter, and they are too fast - they scoot away.

this plastic wrap-glass trap works like a charm, though.

1. put apple cider vinegar in glass
2. cover with plastic wrap
3. poke a dozen holes in plastic wrap with toothpick
4. flies get in but can't find their way out

another suggestion i read on the internet is to put a rotting banana in the oven with the door open overnight. the flies attack the banana. early in the morning sneak in the kitchen and close the oven door before they can escape. turn the oven on to 425.

what do you love about botox? the giant needle? the botulism toxins that freeze your facial tissues? the way it makes you look like you're carved from wax?

if i had the chance i would absolutely fire the persons responsible for designing and ordering this craptastic makeup bag.

happy father's day! hope everybody's weekend was spectacular. i learned many things:
1. if nacho has to go to the bathroom and there is no door open, he will relieve himself on the carpet.
2. a mixture of white vinegar and heavy duty carpet cleaner will get this up.
3. the UNCA campus is bursting with echinacea right now.
4. the 'savory crepes' from the first tent at the UNCA farmers market are gigantic and totally delicious.
5. if you bring empty growlers back to pisgah brewery they will not fill them up with anything you want from the taps. they will take the empty & give you a $5 discount on another already filled growler though.
6. if two full growlers knock into each other on a sharp van turn, one may explode into shattering glass and an atomic mushroom cloud of foamy brown ale before settling into the 1993 teal carpet.
7. if nacho has to go to the bathroom and there is no door open, he will relieve himself on the carpet.
8. a mixture of white vinegar and heavy duty carpet cleaner will get this up.
9. lucero sounds like dropkick murphys from the dirty south.
10. i am surrounded by good people and dogs.

Your both crappy drivers you for making last minute eratic moves instead of going down the road turning around and coming back. But of course you don't see the fact that your driving sucks also. He again so common here in the melting pot let your crappy driving affect his crappy driving. Think about all the other drivers next time your not the only one out there. You miss your turn you pay the price not everybody around you. Uh duh quit bitching and fix your bad driving habits. Stop blaming others it really is you.
