Thoughts, Links, and Photos 6/4 Edition

Written by Conner on June 4, 2009 | Posted under: Thoughts

I have a pretty big post I was working on this week but I just can’t get it finished. I’m hoping to get it finished over the weekend, but it’s something I’m pretty excited to publish so I may take a little longer than normal to write it. So today you get some thoughts and some links. Photos are minimal but that’s okay.

An onion tart is featured over at Orangette
I never finished my post on seeing Solid Gold at the Lynlake Streetfest but here is a photo. More can be found here.

Simple, Good, and Tasty writes about a school in Newark that put growing lunch into the students hands. I love this idea, I think everyone should grow their own food at least once.
Do you restrict your hi-res photos on Flickr, read this please. (via Deets after Dark)
The lock and dams in Minneapolis are pretty prominent features on your river, still I can’t help but wish we had this. (via kottke)
No smoking in the Metrodome gives up the best thing I’ve seen in a while. A Twins logo outside that will soon overlook real outdoor baseball. Related: Look at that view!
A completely valid use of an ad. Tim Olson, I agree with you.
Freshtopia.net has a recipe for a virgin ginger mojito. I tried it and it was good, and you could even ad rum if your feeling rebellious. (found via heidiohlander)
And because I’m posting this an hour before Friday, always remember, the Flickr: Last 7 days interesting photos link is always, always, always worth a click.
