The spicy pickled brussel sprouts turned out AMAZING. I have since been collecting jars and pickling ideas in my head for the next round. In my dream house I have an overflowing vegetable garden, a drum of vinegar, and lots of pantry space!
And now something completely unrelated, “We’re In A Fight” – my cat and my roommate’s cat photographed by Dara Weinberg.
We're in a fight
It all started a couple of weeks ago. I was riding in the passenger seat, driving north on Hwy 1 somewhere between Santa Cruz and SF. We passed a sign:
It wasn’t the artichokes that grabbed our attention, it was the Brussel Sprouts. We pulled a quick U and headed back to grab some fresh brussels, still on the stalk!
A few people have been sharing this video on Facebook and I wanted to share it here as well. This is pretty amazing. These devices fit 200 bicycles in the ground space that would normally fit only a few.
While this is surely an amazing feat of engineering, I’m not sure SF could justify the cost of putting one of these in. The SF Bike Coalition is awesome at providing bike valet service at most events where bike parking is an issue. And while the video doesn’t say so, i’m thinking the owners of the bikes would probably have to pay a fee to park their bikes in one of these. In SF I would be more than happy with an abundance of staple bike racks. What do you think?
