The other day I was at Donny’s office and noticed he had a couple large piles of magazines in the corner. I figured they were mostly Golf Magazine, which I don’t need to read (I like golfing, but don’t need to read about it). However I was mistaken. It was a bunch of food magazines! I’m talking issues of Bon Appetit & Food & Wine from as far back as 2013. [Read more…]

Green Lake Wisconsin 2015
It feels like it has been forever since I have done a blog post…..maybe because it has been forever. Well, at least a week and a half!
I was pretty drained after Bobstock last week so it was good timing that we had planned a trip to Wisconsin! My mom has always wanted to rent a house by a lake in Wisconsin and have all her side of the family stay there and hang out. It worked out that we could all make it there this year, so 14 of us stayed in a house by Green Lake. [Read more…]
Back-Chest Supersets
Well Bobstock 2015 is officially in the books and it was a success! We had our best year yet. Warrant rocked the stage on Friday night and they were amazing to work with. They were really fun guys and want to come back! That’s always a good sign right?!?!
Lou Gramm was incredible – he still sounds great. I did not enjoy working with his tour manager one bit (that is putting it nicely). Lou was very nice himself, quiet but nice. His tour manager was not at all. No fun. However, once Lou performed and did amazing I decided I didn’t care that his manager was a jerk because I never had to see him again. I got to rock out to all my favorite Foreigner songs and that was enough for me! [Read more…]
Grape Chia Jam
It has been crazy busy at the office the last couple of weeks. We put on a two-day music festival once a year in Fort Morgan and bring in a band from the 80s. The past few years we’ve had Blue Oyster Cult, Little River Band, and Foghat come and play. The best part is that the entire event is free to the community! We don’t have a very big staff at Media Logic, so it is a lot of work. It is a really fun event, but a lot to coordinate. [Read more…]
New York City 2015
First of all, I am officially an owner of a brand new laptop! Walking in to the store Donny told me “if there is one you like that is only a couple hundred dollars over what you were thinking about spending, then just upgrade to it. You won’t regret it”. I thought that was good advice since I have a hard time making large purchases like this.
I walked in, went straight to the laptop area, and found someone to assist me. I had quite a few questions for them about purchasing a computer. The first thing she asked me was “what will you be using this for”. When I told her “editing pictures, but I’m not a professional photographer”, she immediately narrowed my choices down to three because she recommended one with a graphics card. I was glad that the choices were down to only three (helps my lack of decisiveness) but I did not like the prices of the three she recommended! All three were several hundred dollars more than what I had intended to spend. [Read more…]
Pistachio & Cherry Overnight Oats
We had a fantastic time in New York City! We left late Thursday night and I returned home on Sunday. To say it was a quick trip is an understatement. The food show started on Sunday, so Donny stayed out there a few more days and I returned home. I will get some pictures together and post about the trip later! Let’s just say it was a trip full of shrimp cocktail, hot dogs, lots of seafood, gigantic porterhouse steaks, and pizza! Not too shabby….. [Read more…]
