Eat Dessert First… PAD #1121

Eat Dessert First... PAD #1121

I caught up with some friends tonight at TGI Friday’s. Derek and Michelle are in town from good old Yankton, SD. They moved there this past year and are home for a few events. The group went bowling tonight but I was at the Wing Off at that time so I missed it. But I did catch up for dinner. Well, I was pretty stuffed from earlier in the day so I only had dessert, which I ate first. Life is unpredictable, sometimes you have to do that sort of thing from time to time.

Today was a busy day, I rolled out of bed very early and got a ton of blogging done. I wrote a couple of reviews. One for the comic book series Rising Stars and the other for a book Shelby about a lemon shark (It is on Read To Me, Dad). Then I shot over to the comic book store for Free Comic Book Day. From there I ran up to the High School for the 2008 Strut Your Mutt Event. There I took a bunch of photos of people and their dogs. I found that it is much easier taking photos of people who have pets with them than it is just asking someone for a photo. And that brings me to the Wing Off. I went there and brought along the camera to take more photos but I pretty much froze up on taking photos of the attendees but I did take many of the participants.

Then I did a lot of photo processing when I was at home so I could get all the photos from both events up for people to go see. I did it so fast because I handed out my blogger business card to many people and who knows it might turn into a photo gig at some point, who knows. Well, it is getting late and I have a few more things I’d like to do tonight because Guy Weekend ends a day early as tomorrow I have many things around here that I would like to get done.

Also going to the Strut Your Mutt really made me want a dog, this dog.

GeneralGeneral

This is General, he is 10 years old and very gentle and friendly. He just shouldn’t be in the shelter, he should have a home. I would love to adopt him but right now it would not be feasible in any way to care for him properly. Not with two cats and a baby to care for already.

How bad can you burn your tongue?

Wing Off 2008

Nah, I didn’t burn my tongue. I had some fine buffalo wings though at the annual Hockomock YMCA fundraising event the Wing Off. 10 local restaurants faced off for title of the Best Buffalo Wings. And who reaped the benefit? Well, I surely did, my donation got me nearly all the wings I could eat (Mentally I could have eaten more but my stomach was telling me no way).

The event had live music, a party atmosphere and plenty of wings for all your taste buds. MY favorite was the Red Dragon wings from Tom’s Tavern in Wrentham. They were just the right blend of hot and sweet. There were other favorites there like Jennerations Cajun Buffalo wings and new favorite to me the straight up buffalo taste from J&M Sports Bar. J&M had the crispiest wings and that is exactly how I like them. Last Year’s winner The Cheiftan had some Guinness wings and they were amazing. A very tasty dipping sauce went with those wings as well. I took a few photos at the event.
