EdHart.meSo I’m taking a break in the middle of my storm picture. It’s really quite horrid at this point in it’s life, kind of like a troubled adolescent that’s rebelling against everything I want it to be. And as I’m reflecting on why, exactly, it’s giving me so much grief I think the analogy is a good one – like the angry kid, it’s simply reflecting all of my mistakes in bringing it to this point.
We wanted something a little more casual for this week’s Date Night Dinner and something that we could make while talking and having a little fun. That translates to a meal where we don’t really have to think too hard or have to concentrate on a recipe. Homemade flatbread pizzas fit that bill perfectly!
Shot this picture very early the other morning. The “real” view was a beautiful midnight blue sky through the trees just before the sun began casting it’s early morning glow. But my camera was still set for some pictures I’d taken inside with some funky lighting, so the white balance was totally off. However, I rather liked the otherworldly effect of the blue and the ghostly pattern among the trees. Sometimes a trash picture turns out to be something interesting.
My LG dishwasher has been leaking water out of the door, leaving a puddle on the floor and threatening to do some serious damage to the hardwoods underneath! After searching on the internet and finding a number of other folks that have the same problem and solutions that all seemed to point to having to buy a new door for it, I decided to do a little reverse engineering and see if I could figure out what was going on. The other common answer for the leaking problem (with the common response being that it doesn’t fix the problem) is a new door gasket. The good news is that I solved my problem for less than $40 using just a phillips screwdriver in about 20 minutes (once I had the part). I hope my solution might help you too.
