We just moved to a new house and are closing on the old house this week. Thoughts of the old house took me to the time we bought chickens and had them in our backyard. Not sure why, and I promise I was not the one who bought them. I can't remember their names. But they were good looking birds.
And tasty too!
UPDATE: The chicken's names were Red and ??
UPDATE2: The chicken's names were Red and Bella per comments.
Shroomin'
Every now and then, we get some of the most interesting looking mushrooms flower up in our backyard. Different colors and shapes, it's always a treat to see what shows up after a good hard rainfall. Can you tell what type of shroom I have? I sure don't know. I would appreciate it a lot. Enjoy!

Cheap Gas and Chicken
This is the cheapest gas I've seen in a while. Pay at the pump fried chicken is a good idea too.

Chicken Masala (4 of 5)
Cooking the sauce (simmer for 20 min, add the chicken, simmer another 10 min). It’s 4 teaspoons of garam masala, 1 8 oz can of tomato sauce, 1 cup of heavy cream, 1 clove of minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. The small pot is full of Jasmine rice.

Chicken Masala (1 of 5)
We are cooking Chicken Masala tonight. Here is the cubed chicken and the marinade. We used 1 cup plain yogurt, 3 teaspoons of garam masala, 2 teaspoons of coarse black pepper, 1 teaspoon of sea salt, 1 tablespoon of minced ginger, and 1 tablespoon of fresh lime juice from our lime tree (we forgot to buy lemon juice at the store). Lisa doesn't like spicy stuff, so we left out the cayenne pepper (although it was still spicy).

Cuckoo Marans
Marans is plural and singular for this breed named after their French town of origin. The Cuckoo refers to the black and white barred coloring. In this breed, the roosters are much lighter in color than the hens. That comes in handy early on! The larger, light colored chicken is my rooster Boots (because he has fluffy feathers on his legs)

Houston AIR Rally
Friends photos from the Houston 2007 Accessibility Internet Rally. Our teams did well, but alas we could not quite reach the level of Pop Labs team 1 and Idea Integration - so congratulations to them! The rest of the photos from AIR 2007 from my camera are in the AIR Houston Pool and posted to the Schipulites account.

critter art car
I recall shooting this one at the Art Car Parade, but in no way did he look this menacing. Solitary, just past the outside patio, laying in wait. Taken at the Sullivan Group Event Planning Open House 2007. Note: Sullivan is a client.

Market Square Park
"Market Square Park: Bounded by Travis, Milam, Preston and Congress, Market Square is the geographic heart of downtown and the site of the city’s original commercial center. Market Square Park was the site of City Hall from 1841 through 1939. On Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., the park hosts Market Square Market, an open-air shopping venue recreating the air of the street market it hosted until the 1920s." Source: www.houstondowntown.com/Home/Lifestyle/WhatToDo/Parks/ It should also be noted that it was in this park, a while ago, that I took Slaughter's photo in a random encounter.

orange show 2007 gala. So this is pretty much the hottest my flickr photo stream will EVAR be. Last of the series. It was fun. To get the full effect you should listen to Slavic Soul Party while viewing this series. And I should mention the full Orange Show 2007 Gala photo set is up as well.
