4x4

I got tagged by Carolyn over at Pedestrian Typography for the 4x4 meme. Sounds fun, here it goes.

Memorable food experiences:
1. Socorro's in Espanola, New Mexico. It was on the way to Ojo Caliente. A small local place where grandma is doing the cooking. When they ask you "tortillas or sopas," the correct answer is "sopas." Trust me.
2. Eating a picnic at a vineyard in the Chateauneuf du Pape region of France. We had absolutely no idea at the time what a famous region wine we were in. We had dry-cured sausage, cheese, fresh baguette and figs we picked up at the local market washed down with wine.
3. Eating at Pho Tau Bay and Angelo Brocato's in New Orleans with friends after Katrina.
4. Rolling out dough until my arms hurt to make strudel with my Oma.

Guns I have enjoyed shooting:
1. Sig Sauer P220
2. Taurus Ultralight Snubnose .38
3. Uzi Israeli Model A Semi-Auto
4. Kimber Goldmatch

Odd things I've done:
1. Performed in a professional version of the Nutcracker as a Polichinelle
2. Appeared very, very briefly in a Bobby Brown music video (back in the day)
3. Smuggled sausages back from aforementioned trip to France
4. Dug up triassic dinosaur fossils in New Mexico

Favorite old film cameras I own:
1. Mercury II CX
2. Rolleiflex
3. The oatmeal box pinhole camera I made in college
4. Polaroid SX-70
