One more walk in the winter wonderland before it all melts in tonight’s warm-up.

Started the day with an appreciative walk in the newly falling snow.

Today I got to experience the second most perfectly cooked egg I’ve ever had the pleasure to eat. (The first being an egg I ate in Paris.) So good that I had to share with the internet.

I’ve had my fill of traveling and I’m looking forward to staying in one place for a good while.

I make things because I enjoy making them. I share them when I have a sense that those things are exactly the sort that would inspire me had I not made them myself. This is not the way to build a large audience, to achieve fame, or to amass wealth. But it is the way to be seen (a very different thing from being validated) that also creates a way for someone else.
The best thing that could happen when I share something online is for someone else to experience it and think, “If he can do that, then I can.”
