Miso Soup!

Dinner on the 19th of July 2008 was miso soup. Here the photos of it.

Audio: For this short video collage, decided to use audio/music from something other than from the YouTube audio library. Browsed through my old collection of some extractions and found this one saved as "The One." No idea from what PC game or other it came from, but here you have the first 25 minutes of it used for this video.

Weekend Shopping!

These are the handful of photos of shopping on Saturday, the 19th of July of 2008. Per the photos it looks like we went to the Phoenix Public Market in Downtown Phoenix and then to Macy's and shopped the Martha Stewart Collection. No idea if we went to other stores that day as these were the only photos.

Radio Music!

Radio Music!

This is a recording circa 1997 from a radio station that was called Crystal FM from Piedras Negras, Coahuila, Mexico.   

It kicks off my new playlist titled Analog Musings that will feature digitized versions of cassette tapes and vinyl records that have been part of my life at one point or another.  You can read more about that on the Analog Musings post. https://elkirbster.blogspot.com/2024/06/analog-musings.html

This was a fitting first start to this because Crystal FM was one of the radio stations that I listened to often growing up on the border town of Eagle Pass, Texas, US. 

The songs of this compilation were originally released between 1996 and 1997. This particular recording from the radio was in 1997.

 After the first two songs, the radio DJ provides the date in  Spanish as 23rd of February of 1997, before they play the last song for the night. No info on when the rest of the songs were recorded, but likely around the same time period. 

List of songs and artist.

Making Chocolate Chip Cookies! 

Here you have the two photos I took of making chocolate chip cookies back on the 13th of July of 2008. Why didn't I take photos of the final baked cookies?! It made me wonder, would we even remember some of our life's moments if we didn't take photos?
