A black car with orange highlights rockets out of a turn. A full dust trail can be seen indicating the path it took before the turn. — Dust trails
This was one of the dryest and hottest runs I think I ever did at Dirtfish. It's brutal to drive in, but it does make for some cool photos with the way the dust trails.

A black car with red accents accelerates out of a turn. An instructor is monitoring a student driver. — SCCA Competition Licensing exam (2)
After exiting turn 3 or 4.

Myself in a black coupe, going through a left hand downhill turn. Myself and my exam instructor both are wearing masks obscuring our faces, unfortunately. The road is slightly wet, with rain shimmering on it. — SCCA Competition Licensing exam
Doing this during the pandemic years was unfortunately a bit cumbersome, as having to have some kind of mask on in the car made the learning experience a bit stilted. That said, Proformance Racing School at Pacific Raceways has some incredible instructors and talented drivers. Between here and Dirtfish, the PNW is spoiled for chances to get good at this stuff. Learning here is also frankly incredible due to the rain in the PNW... you kind of can't avoid having to be decent in the wet. This was (IIRC) turn 3 or 4 on the course.

Eggs benedict with fruit on the side. Plated on a blue plate. — Eggs Benedict
Self explanatory.

A large stuffed cartoon gorilla sits on a scale in a FedEx office. — Goodbye, Fooz!
Won this with Webs coworkers back in ~2009 or so. One of them managed to bring it all the way to Seattle... then gave it to me to handle. I was going to pass it off to someone else, but we're all older and frankly nobody needs a monkey this large. Wound up giving it to a FedEx employee.

Creamy fettucine alfredo in a pan tossed with shrimp. — Shrimp fettucine alfredo
Homemade pasta with local shrimp.

A boy in a red shirt is screwing together a black computer case on top of a wood desk. — Helping Jake build his first computer
My Christmas gift to him. Bought him all the parts and taught him how to put it together.

A 7 part image showing the steps to make a beet red velvet cake. — Red velvet galaxy cake
For my girlfriend's birthday, I opted to bake this year: a beet red velvet cake with a galaxy mirror glaze. I will never make this again... well, maybe if I vegan-ize it.

A man and a woman hold two dogs. They are all wearing identical red holiday sweaters. — Happy Holidays
Family sweaters!

A man with fake glasses and a mustache holds a VCR in a store. — Hey, where'd that mustache come from?
I would trust this man with my life.

A slice of homemade cheesecake with whipped cream on top. — Cheesecake experiments
A bit more dense than I wanted, but this was one of my last experiments doing homemade dairy cheesecake. The whipped cream on top was also homemade... nowadays all I remember is how bloated this made me feel.

A six part image showing how to make Atakilt Wat. — Atakilt Wat
Wanted to switch up flavor profiles for dinner tonight, so took a stab at... Ethiopian food? Atakilt Wat (potato, shallots, carrots, garlic, ginger, turmeric, cloves, cardamom, cumin, cabbage) on top of rice. Not bad, definitely tastes good.
