Grilled Cheese Night at Brewnuts

Michelle and I had a great time at Brewnuts this week where they did a collaboration with Souper Market and Terrestrial Brewing. They served a donut grilled cheese sandwich, a specialty beer tomato soup, and a few selections of Terrestrial beers. IT WAS SO GOOD. Highly recommend attending one of their other events if you get the chance!

I’m working through season 4 of Schitt’s Creek and watched this episode last night and then watched this clip a zillion times. SO BEAUTIFUL. I’ll be weeping at my desk now, thanks.

THEY CAUGHT THE GOLDEN STATE KILLER

GUYS. After over 40 years, the Golden State Killer was taken into custody on Wednesday. If you don’t know about the Golden State Killer (aka EAR/ONS) he was a formerly-unidentified criminal who terrorized ten counties in California in the late 70s and early 80s. With 12 murders, upwards of 50 rapes, and 120 home invasions on his rap sheet, he was an absolute monster who somehow managed to evade authorities for decades. Well, that pile of human garbage was discovered and taken into custody on Wednesday and murderinos everywhere rejoiced. Law enforcement has yet to say it, but props to the late Michelle McNamara, whose recent book I’ll Be Gone in the Dark was absolutely riveting and brought this case back into the public eye.

Attaching a wood fence to a chainlink fence

As I mentioned in my last fence/gate update post, I helped Erika attach a wood fence to the chainlink fence in her backyard. The process was similar to when I converted a chainlink fence to a wood fence, except in this case, we left the chainlink fence intact. This method is a good option if you want to add a little more privacy to your yard or camouflage a chainlink fence while you wait to save up for a completely new fence.

You wanna know what we have been decidedly NOT obsessed with in the past month? The blog. Womp womp. We’re hopping back in this week, but we’ll be posting a bit more sporadically for a while.

Fence Updates and Two-Panel Wood Driveway Gate Plans

Hellooooo, I’m thinking about fences again! You all had the pleasure of following along as I moved and rebuilt the fence in my backyard and then converted a chainlink fence into a wood fence along my driveway, and now it’s finally time to build that driveway gate. Of course, I can’t just build a driveway gate and leave it at that, I’ve also decided to cap the entire fence to cover up the dogear pickets and give everything a cleaner and more finished look. HOORAY!
