My best trip to ALDI yet. I was gifted a free cart by a friendly shopper. Now I have a second ALDI quarter! Stocked up on the essentials like chicken thighs ($1.55 per pound), salad kits, and plenty of dark chocolate. Total receipt was $123.46. Whole milk had gone up from $2.16 to $2.95 per gallon!

Tonight, I made dinner with my friend. I harvested from the garden, washed and chopped fresh kale, green onions, and cilantro. Then we were cooking away for two hours. At three hours in, she asked me to take a picture of the bounty. Then I think she saw the photo on her phone, and then... Instagram!

I custom coded a new web font for just these icons that is burned into the CSS of my website. This bespoke approach allows me to pull up the icons without having to go to a third-party server. I am very happy with the results! It only makes a marginal difference, but it was a nice little project.

Bad news, my wallet got stolen because I was seated at the bar and somebody wanted to get all touchy feely and had a crime of opportunity. Good news is U.S. Bank has a new debit card design that is pretty.

First email that I received for a government job where they are transparent that they actually decided to not hire anybody. I expect to see more of this, or cover story of "go in a different direction" etc, as federal cuts continue.
