Tonight Allison and I went to celebrate our 19th Wedding Anniversary at 579 Benefit in Pawtucket. This family restaurant had some incredible food. We were able to share an appetizer (calamari) and each get an entree (braised Short Ribs and Swordfish Skewers) and then each get some dessert (Creme Brulee and Chocolate Lava Cake). And all of that was under $100 so that was very reasonable. I took as macro shot of my dessert and it was so detailed.
Allison got me a nice jacket and a Thor themed bottle opener as an Anniversary gift. I got her a yarn bowl and a set of crochet hooks.
My new phone a Google Pixel 9 Pro, arrived today and it has a built in Macro Mode for the camera. This new camera on the phone is awesome. So many megapixels and the ability to shoot in macro. The tough thing is holding the camera still enough to get a good macro shot. I was trying to take a few shots and they did not come out great because of how close I had to get and how still I needed to keep the camera. But I think this image of the inside of Optimus Prime’s chest in my LEGO Optimus Prime came out pretty good. You can even make out the backwards LEGO word.
