Arthur’s plans for the weekend are already in effect. He’s very organized about his relaxation. 🐱

Pi Day 🥧 and #TheMountainIsOut for the first time in many days. Hoping for a trifecta of good things today, but the last is all on me. #TrustTheJourney

Baked potatoes are one of the healthiest and most unhealthy foods out there, depending on what you do to them after they leave the oven. This version adds creamy guacamole and black beans in a delicious topping to a fluffy baked potato. Technically, it is a vegetarian dish, but it sure tastes great. #larryskitchen

got my tickets for Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire.

I'm going to be twitchy until the 28th.

Throw together a pasta and a really good sauce, and you have the makings of a memorable meal. Ravioli is so good because you have these flavor packs just waiting to burst with goodness at each bite. And I could drink this sauce by itself. #larryskitchen

Vietnamese dinner for the birthday girl. New restaurant to us did not disappoint. Anchovies & Salt in Renton Southport.

I feel you, Tina. Expecting chocolate chips and getting raisins in my cookies is a crime against culinary nature. #Borderlands2

morning vibe...

move to the West Coast, they said. no more hurricane natural disasters, they said.

from the USGS on most dangerous volcanos in the United States. Rainer is 37 miles from my home (as the crow flies) and St. Helens is 76 miles away.

These fritters remind me of a kid with the ingredients but appeal to adult me in the variety of usages they have. Whether as a side dish or part of the main course, the sweet corn comes through and adds a great texture to any meal. Pairing them up with black bean salsa and eggs makes a great brunch. #larryskitchen

Homemade tamales from our next door neighbor makes the best Sunday dinner. 🫔

Small in size but mighty in flavor. And yes, if you don’t get a good seal, these Chorizo Empanadas will open up. But that’s okay. larryskitchen

Excuse me, do you have a moment to talk about our goddess, Mothra?

Dinner was not quite the success I was hoping, so I instituted a new rule. When the cook declares culinary failure, restitution is made in the form of a Blizzard. Those are the rules.

Look in the lower right hand corner. This card was presented to me for my media work at MagicCons, but it is a memory reminder of all the great people I worked with at the events and the wonderful attendees I met.

There is a Baltimore restaurant that coats their French toast with Cap’n Crunch cereal. But I wanted something a little crunchier and a little less sugary. Corn flakes makes the perfect coating, resulting in a loud exterior to counterbalance the creamy interior. #larryskitchen

Crab rangoons are my all-time favorite appetizer when I go out to eat. Crab and cheese just seem to go together. I wondered how my favorite filling would go in a grilled cheese sandwich. As it turns out, pretty darn well. #larryskitchen

“Good morning. Nice of you guys to drop by.” #Rainer

Claptrap's New Robot Revolution is done, and all of the original #Borderlands and DLC is complete with Mordecai (except for Crawmerax - not happening solo). Moving on, I'm going to start Borderlands 2 with Zer0. I do love me a sniper. (image is standing at the bus stop at Fyrestone after finishing)

My gaming wingman. Well, more like my elbow man.
