Yet another weekend filled with food and entertainment. Things start off on Friday evening for finishing up my first attempt at making Lasagna. Saturday was chicken and waffle night at the house; and I spend most of Sunday recovering. Jen’s portable fire pit is a frigging awesome replacement for the go board that we normally congregate around while outside.
The previous day while at the supermarket, I decided to try my hand at making lasagna. Having just had a wonderful lasagna from Angelini Osteria, a quick search pulled up a “recipe”. It is as good a starting point as any, but I’m making my own little modifications to the basic recipe as I go along. Hsiang-Wei(gtetra) came over to work on his Gaplant for which he pretty much finished painting and only requires the clear coats and decals to finish up the sucker.
I need another weekend to recover from my weekends. Dinner and a bar on Friday; Thai food lunch, home made dumplings and homemade chocolate mousse on Saturday; followed by skiing, NFC/AFC Championship games, and a family dinner on Sunday. I’m almost glad to be at work so that I can use this time to recover before starting this all up again come the next weekend.
Weekend update: January’s build gathering. This month we had about 7 new people come to the gathering. The size of the gathering is getting back to normal after all the holidays and such. This looks like a good start to the new year. I got some work on my RSO that has been sitting idle on my desk for the past few weeks, and I cracked open the Gun Tank and got the core fighter done for the thing. Having built the core fighters for previous kits, this is by far the most complex core fighter to date. The parts separation is pretty intense. I’m still not too sure the over engineering is necessary, but the thing is pretty cool regardless. More details about the gathering after the jump.
