LA-Style Atomic Buffalo Turds

abtcoverThere are two universal constants with food: it’s hard to beat a cream cheese-stuffed jalapeno and, you can wrap nearly ANYTHING in bacon and it be very tasty. So what do we have here – a cream cheese stuffed bacon-wrapped jalapeno pepper with some sausage! Where can you go wrong with that!

Most recipes I’ve seen for stuffed smoked jalapenos called for just the cream cheese stuffed pepper with bacon however lately I’ve been seeing a lot of recipes adding lit’l smokies smoked sausages which are good however I wanted to kick it up a level and used chorizo sausage instead.

A quick shot at the bowling alley

SMASH!At a bowling birthday part this past weekend I snapped a few shots of some other people bowling while not pointing the camera at the kids. The photo in this entry was a strike and to be honest, it was the only of about 20 shots where I caught the crash just right with the pins flying in every direction. There were a few more shots later in that game of spares and others without the pins flying, this one I liked the best. Click here to see a larger photo.

Amateur Photography

A few shots of some various roses in a rose garden. Click here to see more shots… I bought a new “jack stand” for the camera, a monopod for really leaning into the shots with a still hand. All these shots were taken with the camera on full auto. This is what I like so much about the Nikon digital SLRs, all you have to do is point it at something interesting and the camera does all the work for you. I use a D50 and all the pics in this album are taken with a variable focal length 22-80mm zoom lens. There are no modifications done digitally or by filters in these shots.

Enjoy the photos!
