It Was A Fun Weekend.

     I just ordered an adaptor that should help out with my wifi problem with my MacBook. It is an adaptor that will connect my ethernet cable to the MacBook, and I won't have to use wifi for it so much. That will hopefully cut down on my upload times, and also stop holding me up in posting these blogs. It's been weird that it happened whenever I upload video clips form the GoPro that it happens, but it is happening and I need to find a work around, and I think I just found it.

     With that out of the way, let's talk about some good stuff. First thing is that I made the video about Wayback Burgers yesterday. A few things came out of this. I did an Instagram Story along with it, and I felt way more comfortable in front of the camera. I can only assume it is because of my time doing the PR. It felt really good to be doing it, and it even felt better making the video.

     Before we get to the video, I want to give my review. The Cheeeesy, was pretty fantastic, and much better than I thought it would be. They use hand formed patties that are made from fresh beef. As far as it being a cheeseburger, it had all the elements of one, but it was more like the best patty melt I have ever had. If you don't know what a patty melt is, it is generally ground beef formed in a longer than usual patty, fried up, then put between two slices of rye bread, with several slices of cheese, and sometimes sautéed onions, which is then fried like a grilled cheese sandwich. They are truly one of my favorite food. That used to be my one birthday celebration. I would have a patty melt for my birthday every year. I haven't done it in years though, so this sandwich brought back some memories for me. I also got the O-fries with it, I misnamed them O-rings when I was talking about hem before. The fries are pretty common, nothing special about them, but they are good. The extra kick of the onion rings though, makes this a staple for me when I visit them again, and I will be visiting them again. The onion rings are fantastic. Fried to perfection with that little pop of grease when you bite into them. I could even see myself just getting onion rings the next time I go, but that just isn't as fun as the O-fries. I added the Jungle Crumble shake with this. It is a rich thick chocolate shake with gummy worms and crumbled oreos on top. It is exactly as you think it would be. Decadent as all get out, and a joy to have. I have pictures of all this, but I'll share those after the video. It's a short one this time, so please enjoy it.



     That was a really fun video to make, and I kept the time way down. I like the way these short videos are turning out. I have the pictures for you right here. Enjoy the foodiness of this food porn.





















     Now that all that is out of the way, I guess I should mention that I did stop by and get the photo that I needed for the last place the PR reviewed. I don't think I talked about the failure of my partner to get the shot that we need for the blog post. I like to start the entire thing with a photo of either the restaurant or the sign. It's like an introduction to we are at that day. It is his only job when we are on location other than eating pizza, and his last two photos, haven't really been up to par. The Purple Rain Cafe was off center, and this most recent one was chopped. The work around on this one, was that I had to go by and get the shot myself. It worked out, since I was going there for Wayback, which was on my way home from there. I've been help up by this, so I will actually be writing the blog post tomorrow so that it will be ready for it's Friday release. That obliterated my whole sitting back and forgetting about the whole thing for a week or so. We don't have to post another review for three weeks at this point, but we do need to find time to go to the next place to get our review done. I'm hoping for doing it next week, so that I have time to get everything together.

     I should mention that the Purple Rain Cafe has closed it's doors. The loss of their pizza chef was too much for them to overcome. I don't know the story of how he left, since in the post I read about the doors closing, sounded more like he left rather than got fired. My partner told me he was fired. He really needs to work on his confirmation skills.

     On to other fun things. I finished watching season two of A Series of Unfortunate Events. It stars Neil Patrick Harris, and it is quite fantastic. I highly recommend watching this series on Netflix. It is very good, and family friendly. It is based on the Lemony Snicket books of the same name written by Daniel Handler. It appears based on something they actually say during the show, that there is only one more season, that will wrap this whole series up. I still have the Santa Clarita Diet to watch. That stars Drew Berrymore. She plays a zombie in a humorous way. Her and her husband played by Timothy Olyphant, go around and kill people Dexter style (bad people that probably deserve to die) so that she can eat. They released season two a couple of weeks ago, so I got some TV viewing in front of me.

     I think I should wrap this up while the getting is good. With the wifi trouble I'm having it makes it problematic when it comes to posting this up. I keep getting warnings that the auto save is not working, so while it is working right now. I'm going to close this out. Not before I mention that the finale of The Walking Dead is tonight, and they are pairing it with the premier of Fear the Walking Dead. I'm going to be so tired tomorrow. Peace in and goodnight.
