Pulitzer Prize Winning Ride

It will be easy for Dale and Joe to remember yesterday.

  • It was the hottest day of the Summer so far 
  • Tilapia was priced at less than $2/lb at Bottom Dollar
  • We had our first guest
  • We had our second guest
  • Dale was a "vegetarian" for the fourth consecutive day
Alright, coincidentally it was also the first day of Summer.   But it was hot.  I think the high temperature topped at about 310 Kelvin.  The humidity however felt kind of low, and actually, swampy would have been an exaggeration.  We parked the new white Neon for the second consecutive day.  I think I'll work on the a/c this weekend.

Tilapia fillets had been on sale all week at BD, but who had the time to get that deal.  We finally scored 12 pounds on Thursday.  Fish tacos?  Ceviche? Cat food?  We'll need help with this one.  Somehow we need to include this in the Superfood recipes.

Liam Migdail-Smith met us at this morning at the edge of the pool and dove right in.  He's doing a story or perhaps a series of stories of people who use alternative transportation.  Yes, he uses one of those classic reporter notepads but he's not just some Jimmy Olsen.  This is Pulitzer Prize-winning material, folks.  He's a nice, smart young man and I think if you look at today's paper, you'll see that he performed quite well without a car.  

Its a good thing Dale power-washed the back seat a few weeks ago.  Our ride home was a full house with the addition of Reading Eagle photographer Susan Angstadt.  Susan has a real passion for her profession, and is a really nice lady.  If you see what she did yesterday for the paper, you'll see that she too, had a busy day.  However, I have a feeling she likes cooler weather.  Good thing the Neon was parked!

Vegetarian Dale?  A meat-lover's meat-lover changing sides?  Mood=quiet.  Folks, this is actually some sort of challenge in which he got himself entangled.  I'll say this, his 1,200 calorie vegetarian burrito smelled pretty good but I'll bet he was hungry all day.  He needs some Tilapia encrusted prime rib or a meat parfait.  Mmmmmm.  Bacon mousse on a meat parfait.

We should probably post about the fun we had yesterday, too.  Tomorrow.  It's time to get to work!
