There was a lot of sensory input this weekend.
Taste and smell: I had a lot of good food this weekend. Lunch on Saturday was bacon, eggs, cheddar cheese, and salsa served on warm flour tortillas. Yum! For dinner I made myself a soup with zucchini, potatoes, and angel hair pasta. Then I cooked a bison strip steak. I can't remember if I have ever eaten bison before. After this experience I will be eating it again. This steak was very tender and flavorful and was surely worth way more than the three dollars I paid for it. I served the steak with a sauce of tomatoes and roasted peppers and had buttered peas, garlic chips, and jalapeno slices on the side. Yum! For whatever reason I decided to go to Sonic for lunch today. One thing I like about Sonic is that I can eat an extra long cheese coney, french fries, and a medium-sized drink and not feel totally disgusting afterwards like I do after eating at other fast food places. This is true even when items are not super-sized. No wonder I avoid them whenever possible. The other thing I like about Sonic are their drinks. Cherry limeade. Mmmm.
Sight: Just recently I watched the Battlestar Galactica miniseries from a few years ago. Hey, I'm slow! I enjoyed the miniseries immensely and got the season 1 DVDs this past week. Saturday I watched the first seven episodes and was terribly sad that I had to stop watching and go to bed. It is a darn good series if I say so myself. No spoilers, please! You know, if there were more blond Cylons on TV, I'd watch more TV. Today I finally saw Iron Man. (Didn't I already say I was slow?) Cool movie. I vaguely remember watching Iron Man cartoons and I never got into comic books so I will leave discussion of the movie's accuracy to the experts. This movie was good though. Tony Parker sure knows how to make cool toys.
Sound: I listened to a ton of good podcasts from Escape Pod this weekend. Escape Pod will get its own entry someday soon, but for now I'll just say they podcast short science fiction and fantasy stories.
It was a pretty good weekend here, how was yours?
