  • $100+ USD for a 6oz A5 wagyu steak. Certainly changes your perspective on the heights of quality for steak. I also paid $65 for a sashimi grade tuna Benedict at this place for brunch. No ragrets.

    $60 for a 1/2 pour of an $1100 bottle of bourbon (rabbit hole amburana). It was a novelty and surprised me a lot. Definitely phenomenal, but a taste was all I needed. No ragrets.

    Sam adams utopia (think it was $220 for the 750ml bottle of “beer”), not worth it, but a fun experience to share with other beer nerds.

    There’s an apparently $1200 bottle of wine from a small napa vineyard with a wait-list for their wine in my basement right now we got as a gift. We’re gonna need to find a pro who can help us taste that. My wine taste tops out at about $30 a bottle.

    One day I’ll do Omakase at a suitably awesome sushi place and wreck the credit card.














  • That skunk will be back around for cat food.

    We had a juvenile come in through the patio door we had cracked for the cat. Dogs chased it under the stove. Took hours for it to let its guard down and leave following a trail of cat food.

    It has been back several times over the last couple years. Only been back in the house 2x that I know of (the 20 year old cat demands the open door or she howls all night). We have a “skunk gate” on our patio now (it’s just plywood that runs between 2 rails on the steps).
