sarah, stephen, evan and i had an exciting time over the weekend trying out the Only Burger, Durham’s latest burger sensation.  the Only Burger is a food truck that drives around town and tweets its location so that the masses will arrive and be fed.  they have delicious burgers, including veggie burgers, which we did not try, and hand-cut french fries.  usually they do a dinner shift and a late night shift, and also do lunches at the farmer’s market and american tobacco campus, just to name a few spots.  my burger and fries were delicious.  check them out at www.onlyburger.com.

ps.  the only burger reminds me of this post by our friend michael who lives in LA.  food trucks in LA, food trucks in Durham… Durham is as cool as LA?

Big Success ?? Little Tomatoes??

July 23, 2009

So the post, that held down the top of the blog for so long, featured our rooftop garden.  I figured people might be interested in an update.  We have starting getting some tomatoes.

Beautiful right?? But the problem is that they are really tiny.

These tomato plants have come along way but they have a long way to go until they are truly a success.

arrested-development

finally getting back into blogging after a long absence and a bit of prodding. how can you not want to please your readership? so our absolute favorite thing this summer has been watching arrested development. i know we’re like 6 years late getting into this, so if some of you out there who have already seen it are thinking, kelly, do you live under a rock, i understand. but for anyone that is asking, what is that? you should immediately head here, and watch as many episodes as possible before bedtime. at least that’s what we’ve been doing. the show is a “the office” style show featuring a family owned development company that goes south when the president/father is sent to jail, and the son, michael, has to keep the family and the company together. the show ran from ‘03 to ‘06, and then was cancelled, as it was ahead of its time. hats off to the fosters, for highly recommending it.
