#61: Help ten restaurants recover. A good French brunch.

#4: Do something I wouldn’t do if not for this blog
#65: Deep Sea Fishing

Wouldn’t think about going on a two night fishing trip with mostly strangers one hundred miles from land, but the virus has thrown a wrench into my plans.

The sea was rough and most people got sick. I tried to sleep in my blanket-less bunk during the overnight boat ride, but the turbulence felt like a 7.0 earthquake for ten straight hours. But once I hooked this 244 pound monster tuna the next day, all was grand.

#48: See 10 New Movies

It’s no Training Day, but most movies in the age of Covid are watchable.

#61. Help 10 LA restaurants recover

Can’t let good Italian fail either.

Only because it’s 120 degrees outside does he tolerate a good shave.

#91: New Car for Sonia

#61. Help 10 LA restaurants recover

Can’t let sushi fail.

Enjoyable enough.

The kids were the first to jump on the air frying trend, but we finally got one. So far, Sonia has made fries, reheated soggy pizza to crispy perfection, and even used it to make her lechon. Tonight, I air fried a couple of Branzinos.

After cleaning them, I scored them, then made a marinade paste of oregano, salt, pepper, and a Korean chili mix.

Rubbed and stuffed the mix.

A little flour and lemon.

Air fried for 30min.

Paired with some Spanish rice. Two thumbs up.

#5: Go to a Marquette Game

Over a hundred degrees today, but Devin kept us cool with his DJing skills.

#93: Add five vintage hard covers to the library

Excellent.

#25: Eat Seafood Seaside

Beautiful day in Malibu at Mastros Ocean Club.

Another good one.

One of my favorite pics, so I’ll continue to post it.

While I feel a pang of nostalgia for my former employer Skil/Bosch, Dewalt offers a more innovative and diverse product line here in the states. Next project: a workbench.

#61: Support Restaurants

LA restaurants remain prohibited from serving indoors, so parking lots have become dining rooms.
