Another thing that's awesome are hush puppies, my cousins in Maryland introduced me to them a few years ago while visiting. What they are are chunks of cornbread battered and deep fried and you dip them in honey, so good.

I can just feel my arteries clogging just THINKING about those... lol

Oh brother We all need to go out shooting again. Maybe I'll take off my clothes, run through the city and we can do a series entitled "Urban Nudes".

I need to start drinking again. Being sober is grossly overrated.

I'm from the South originally and I can really say that New England does not know hushpuppies. A few places will serve them on the menu, but it's totally not right.

As a kid, I used to eat my hushpuppies with ketchup. Not say that's right... but it was good.

They say they can get them closer to them but they're terrible. They drive over to Solomons from Hughesville and only ever get them from that one restaruant. To them it's akin to blasphemy to suggest getting them anywhere else.

You think that's bad, you should have seen the reaction when I told my doctor about mac&cheese stuffed bacon wrapped meatloaf! She nearly lost her mind standing there yelling at me, the whole time I couldn't stop laughing.

All of this food talk...

The WORST thing I've ever eaten healthwise has to be this:

Man from the South here. I agree. Hush Puppies are awesome.

And you know what will happen.... if you keep it, you'll take it on-site, and it will fart on ya again... glad you are still returning it.

Wise choice

My brothers "hangover sammich", run a doughnut though a bagel slicer, egg, bacon, and sausage. Disgusting.

Im slightly intrigued by this lol


The only time I ever eat at McDonalds these days is mornings when I have a hangover, bacon egg and cheese biscuit usually does the trick

Some images from the Lantern Festival in Jamaica Plain.

nice shots. didn't even know this was happening. should've went damn.

looks like you've been shooting with the 5D more!

How does the ISO noise compare 5D mk1 vs 7d?

I'm starting to reeeeeeally miss 7D's AF/Drive options. The images, however, are dreamy.

It seems to hunt a little bit in low light and I have to readjust get used to focus-recompose again. I haven't done that in a long time.

I miss venturing into the Boston area... ever since I left my job, the only times I go in are with my family to Franklin Park Zoo or the Museum of Science. Which reminds me... Franklin Park Zoo is opening a huge new playground on the 15th. My son can't wait to go, keeps asking when it will be open.
