Lifestyle: April 2008 Archives
When I first put money down on a condo, it was a very strange feeling to know that I wouldn't set foot inside it for about a year. Slowly, but surely, the vague thought that I may actually have somewhere to move to this fall is starting to become a reality. The powers that be at my condo just posted a photo of the latest construction.
I guess I better start figuring out how I'm going to furnish this place. Never really thought about that before, mostly because every time I saw it up until now... it didn't even have walls.
Last week's episode of Scrubs introduced a concept called "Brinner". Put simply, it's having breakfast for dinner, ie, pancakes and a glass of red wine. Sounds appealing, no?
Knowing I wasn't ready to bring Brinner full boar into my life without a period of transition, I decided to start by moving breakfast from it's normal start time to one that is a bit later in the day. Some call this brunch. I call it delicious.
What better place for Em and I to visit than Anthony's Home Port in beautiful (and Beverly Hill-ish) Kirkland. There's no better place to spot some cougars, catch a view of the cloudy waterfront, and chow done on some culinary delights.
What I love about Anthony's is that they've still found a way to give us the equivalent of bread and butter, except with a breakfast slant. Check out the warm coffee cake with cinnamon butter and fruit with some sort of sweet mango dip. That was nearly a meal in itself. Note to self- don't even order next time, the coffee cake and fruit is plenty.
You can already see my face is fattening up. Maybe I'm ready for Brinner sooner than I thought.
After a month or two of being of the grid, I'm finally paying attention once again to this blog. My apologies for being away, but it's really been a hectic time. Since I last posted I've launched a new product, done a keynote with the E&D prez Robbie Bach, and just now started work on a completely new team.
The new team is in stealth mode right now (to borrow a phrase from my friend Ford Davidson), but I assure you it's very cool.
Anyway, I'll be back to more regular posting now, for better or worse.
