Fried rice from last night was made into a soup with organic silken tofu. Peppers from our garden sprinkled with cheese and toasted in the oven.

My personal blog. Full of life and musings, my hobbies, and dreams for the future.
Jacob Riis Park
During my visit to New York City and Brooklyn, I took a walk with my family at the beachfront of Jacob Riis Park. It was a foggy morning, and the surf was strong. Big ocean swells endlessly crash on the shoreline. It was quite refreshing.
Thursday
Starting the day off with the sunrise and a bowl of cereal.
After tea, I’ll take a walk. I usually walk two kilometres a day to hatch an egg in Pokémon Go.
Backyard project
I’ve been thinking for a while that I want to terrace a portion of my backyard for additional growing space.
I have been watching YouTube videos and am particularly fond of the Primitive Skills channel.
Since I have an abundance of red clay available, I think I will be able to manage similar constructs. Though, of course, I will be using an actual shovel since I am in a hurry.
I do have two varieties of bamboo planted, however, they are not plentiful enough to use.
Perhaps the greatest challenge with all of this is all of the mosquitoes.
Dinner
We had grilled cheese and tomato soup for dinner.
A sharp cheddar was used, and whole grain bread.
The tomatoes were organically grown in our own garden here at the house.
It always tastes good when you use homegrown produce.
Plans for posting
Now that I am home, I can go through the photos that I took on my vacation and upload them.
I have access to my desktop computer, so it will be much easier than using my phone.
Over the next week, I will post photo galleries relating to spots on my trip in NYC.
These will be similar to the galleries from my visit to the Brooklyn Museum.
All of the photos will be those I took using my camera. I use a Fujifilm Finepix HS 25 EXR.
9 Treasures…well 7
Dinner tonight is stir-fried veggies with pork and brown rice. A dipping sauce made from soy sauce, sesame seeds, honey, and red pepper flakes.
Carrots, shiitake mushrooms, bean sprouts, zucchini, snow peas, green onions, and pork.
Dessert was my mother’s bread pudding.
Lighting was poor in the kitchen, so the pictures were not great.
eBay
I mostly sell books on eBay; sometimes I sell stuffed animals.
I used to sell trading cards like Pokémon, Star Wars, Magic: The Gathering, and Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. I also sold some computer items, but not so much anymore.
I started by using Amazon to sell items, but I realized that they don’t reimburse you very much for shipping, so I stopped using them. I much prefer using eBay now.
I would like to give reselling a try, as I have heard it’s quite profitable depending on the market.
Boarding
Took a bit of effort, really. By the time I was in my seat, it was already the scheduled departure time.
I got some nice shots of planes arriving and taxiing to the takeoff lanes. I find I am quite fond of planes.
It seems we are flying outside of the WiFi coverage area, so I won’t be able to upload this post until I land.
Even on Vacation
Fighting the good fight, as they say. Always nice to support a cause for good health.
I got the Pink Lemonade Vodka drink for a Breast Cancer Awareness campaign they were doing with Delta Air Lines.
