Daring Cook: Spaetzle

I recently joined an awesome new group called the Daring Cooks and the Daring Bakers where we are challenged each month to make something new that we've never done before. This month for the Daring Cooks we had to make pasta by hand, there were a few recipes given that we could choose from or we could go with our own, I decided to stick with one of the given recipes, spaetzle.

I've decided that I'll give the recipes only of dishes that I create well and that tastes good, as you can tell there is no recipe with this one. I tried my best to fall the recipe exactly but I think part of it was my pot of water took way too long to boil and I got a bit impatient. Even so I didn't think the actual dough had much taste so this was a miss for me, here are the photos of my attempt though:

Kenmore Asylum

Last weekend my friend Alex took me out to the old Kenmore Asylum in order to take some photographs. Of course, Alex forgot his camera so he just took the time to show me around, he and a few others had spent a lot of time at the asylum a year or two ago when they were shooting a very creepy short film.

We headed out early in the morning and I got some great shots while the sun was slowly warming the day up for us. Below are some of the photographs that I really liked from the day, I really had a hard time narrowing it down. What I found to be most eerie about the old asylum, besides the fact that they were about to start renovating to turn the place into a resort of B&Bs, is that all the buildings are so nicely intact and looked after just completely empty.

Take a look and let me know what you think.
