Yay, Portland finally has a good bar to hang out in! Went to LFK’s (Longfellow Fellowship of Knights) yesterday with Maleah. It was decorated with old timey typewriters and had literary references throughout. The bloody marys were pretty decent—lots of horseradish, just the way I like it. Already looking forward to going again.
Next time your socks get a hole in them, don’t throw them out. Try out this crafty DIY project and turn your discarded socks into cute owl ornaments. I can’t wait to try it out.
We had a great turnout tonight for our Monsters Art Show! People came out in droves despite the drizzly weather. Special shout out to Kris Johnsen for making it all happen. Here are some pics from the evening…
Noah came into the room today and delivered the shocking news that Adam Yauch of Beastie Boys fame, had passed away. Yauch had battled with cancer the last 3 years. He was 47. The Beastie Boys were such an important part of my high school years. To this day I remember as a teen being completely devastated when my mom wouldn’t let me go to their concert. Rest in peace, MCA. You will be missed.
Last Friday hackers converted the MIT building into a giant Tetris board. Pretty sweet.

Recently Portland, Maine made #5 on Travel + Leisure’s America’s Best Cities for Hipsters List. Say wha? Not saying we don’t have our own little thriving hipster community here…but we even beat Brooklyn for goodness sake, the hipster capital of the world. This poll by Dispatch Magazine, which also questions Travel + Leisure’s list, made me laugh.
Alas, one egg was dropped and smashed in the early stages of the incubation period. And the other egg sadly never hatched.
This Scandinavian sandwich cake is decorated so beautifully! It’s so amazing! I’ll pass on munching the salmon, mousse, cream cheese, shrimp, egg, cucumber and sour cream, though. Well, maybe I would try a nibble out of curiosity. For more on the smörgåstårta, check out Panini Happy.
