We went to see some stunt riders tonight. A quad did a back flip. It was rather impressive. As my friend said, if this is what these guys do as a profession, what do they do for fun? How do you get any more excitement than this? These guys were incredible. Handstand backflips, really? What next?

Mirror, Mirror on the wall
Had lunch in Midtown and this mirror was in the hallway heading to the restrooms. I would love to have a mirror like this.

Ducks made out of shovels
I was just sitting at a light in Bellaire and in the yard to my right I spotted these adorable ducks.

Farm Fresh Eggs, Organic Strawberries, Carrots, and Mushrooms
Urban Harvest Farmer's Market has a lot of great locally grown or raised foods. The carrots are my favorite, different in size, color, and absolutely delicious! It's neat to see foods look like how I remember them as a kid. No more of these frankenfoods all the same size, color, texture and tasteless.

One of Sputniks friends
What on Earth is that? You ask. This is my answer back to all the junk mail, bills, and unused newspapers. It's a way to make paper logs to burn in your fireplace. These will make excellent fire starters and I'll have way less trash. How cool is that?

375degF after 20 mins
That's right folks, my little sputnik is already at 375degF and I've had it outside for only 20 minutes. This is free cooking at it's finest.

The delivery guy just left. My rain barrels are way tall. Too funny. I'm excited to get them set up and in use.

I should buy a lottery ticket
I shot a rubber band @ my coworker over the bay wall from me and if I were playing horseshoes I'd be the winner. I got a ring around the straw on her drink. Go me!

2 of the 4 raised beds - middle way through
I'm about to paint these with the cute design coat of paint since today is beautiful outside. Once the paint is dry it will be time to consider ordering some good organic dirt.

2 of the 4 raised bed garden boxes - after
It appears I have 2 giant watermelons in my backyard now. I think these are adorable. Too bad they aren't ripe for picking!

Sputnik on its Maiden Voyage
Just launched the Solar Oven for the first time. It has to be heated then cleaned 1 time before cooking food in it.

Cracked open my first home brewed beer
This is great! It's a little fuller than Corona, but has lots of fizz.

Okra after dehydration
This doesn't even compare! It's hard to see it in the picture. The okra is about 1/3 it's starting size. I can now fit at least 6-12oz pkg of okra in one 1/2 qt jar. Rock on!

Aunt Bev, share your heat wave... It's -6degC in Houston
It's almost 8am and the website says it's 22degF at the airport. My home weather station says it's 18degF. Aunt Bev, could you send some of your heat wave my way :-)?

Have I located a Russian spy satellite?
No! But I have just unveiled my new sun oven that might double as a tanning chair :-). I'm pretty excited to try a roast or stew in the sun oven. It's almost impossible to burn food in a solar oven and the foods taste better. Homemade bread, cookies, and dinners here I come!

Walmart gas station + free car wash
I looked over and she was using the squeegie to wash her entire car. I'm sure I'm just jealous that I didn't think of it first. Awesome start to a new year! Frugality at it's finest.
