Farmers' Market Cooking Date

The side dish was Smashed Yukon Gold Potatoes with Chives from the AMA's Type 2 Diabetes cookbook.

Dissociative Rhythm Machine, Think Twice, Kontatto, and Dance MachineSo I go to shows all the time and I need to commit to keeping track of them.

Peelander-ZNew(ish) venue and a band I've never seen before. Both were good, band was awesome. The crowd seemed dubious when we walked in as the collection of people looked more at home in the pit at a metal show but once it started, holy shit ( Read more... )
