2. An awesome game night with friends. We get together and grill tons of veggie burgers and veggies on my roof, then go downstairs and play board games- currently we are obsessed with Dominion, which is a card game, but don't let that scare you away- it actually isn't hard to learn, and each person doesn't need to have their own cards.
3. Trying Kombucha for the first time.
I tried a cherry and lemon flavor. I wasn't brave enough to try it in the traditional flavor (which I thought wouldn't be as sweet). It is pretty good, though it might be offputing if you don't like drinks with a bit of a tang. The aftertaste is a bit like drinking vinegar- i.e. a slight burning- not bad, I enjoy it, but it is not like drinking soda- natural or otherwise. Will I be drinking more of it? Yes and no. I am not going to go out of my way to make it (the idea of the mother freaks me out a bit, I admit, and I it has more sweetener than I like in my typical everyday drinks, even when flavored with fruit juice), but do like it from the fermented foods aspect of it.4. Foam board for white backgrounds. I usually use regular old thick white paper. But this is working better- at least for applications where I don't need it to bend (so as not to have a seam at back). The foam board is thick enough to stand up (with several pieces taped together at the back), making it great for getting a white background:
The one one the left is as is, no cropping or photoshop. The one on the right is cropped, also no photoshopping. I need to get more and bigger pieces of foam board (so I can avoid the seam as much as possible), but for me it is a great alternative to having to get a more elaborate background setup, and I can set it up on my deck where the light is best (also nice, since I don't really want to have to get lights just for product photos!).
