Our first warm sunny day for a picnic… We got a disposable grill, easy grill food, and went to our favorite spot in the park. We played with the camera remote. We used to take timer pictures of us a lot, but we haven’t in a long time, and I think we’ll start doing it again now and then.

A trip to St. Hanshaugen park with my 85mm/1.2, playing with the fabulous bokeh of this lens. Partly it was sort of an experiment with bokeh, parly with impressions and composition and forms and such, and partly a look at the park from the eyes of a photographer who was not wearing his glasses.

I took this photo over six months ago. I almost really love it, but… I don’t think I quite pulled it off. So I tried to see it in b&w, and I like it even more… but I still don’t think I quite pulled it off. Too messy, too distracting. Maybe I’ll try it again someday.

So, at least some people are not getting our posts on their feeds anymore. I tried, guys, really I did… I suspect that it has something to do with either some ephemeral feed ID, or the SSL forwarding requests from http to https, or the inauspicious alignment of Jupiter with a rotting turnip in Zaragoza… one or more of these, I suspect. (This web stuff might seem like regular programming, but it’s really quite different.)

Anyway, if you aren’t getting posts, maybe try to delete the old feed and resubscribe? (Like, reboot your feed.)

Sorry. :(

That’s my girl. :)

Would you like green eggs and ham?

Apl is three months old now, time for her to start tasting (very small) tastes of fresh fruit juices. This is to (very) gradually get her used to regular food flavors and textures before we start doing the serious work of weaning 6 – 9 months from now. Little baby is growing up! We scraped a tiny bit of juice from a fresh-cut apple and put a couple of drops in her mouth.

Um, I think I maybe fixed the problem with the feed that we were having. Sorry if you just got a flood of stuff. (Plus this.)

Turned out to be an SSL redirect thing (and not the aforementioned turnip). Blah, blah, acronyms, blah… but I think it’s working, anyways.

Apl just got her first pair of baby sunglasses. I think it’s hilarious that she looks like she’s fake-smiling. Cheese!

Just a regular morning… I put Apl in the basket to hang out with Ruby while I was getting things ready. I came back to find Ruby happily entertaining/being entertained by Apl. It’s hard to tell in the picture, but Apl has both arms around that doll. (That’s Jane Chevrolet, by the way, named after Jane Banks from Mary Poppins, and Chevrolet, Ramona Quimby’s doll.)
