Hung with some friends who just moved back to town, played ping pong and had Ethiopian food. Turns out I am not a fan of Ethiopian food.

that sodden bread?

It was very spicy, not hot just a lot of flavor. Didn't jive with me. Where a lot of curries are complex with complimentary flavors, this seemed to clash. Literally reminded me of the first time I tried to make chili and just dumped way too much random shit into a pot.

The spongy bread wasn't bad but I found it creepy. I suspect someone with Trypophobia would run away screaming.

Looking at a recipe it perhaps had too many cloves.

I concur, judge this one meal by this one cook at this one restaurant on its own merits, or lack thereof.
I have been blown away by an Ethiopian meal, and disappointed in others.
Prepared correctly, it’s amazing.

Glad you're okay @eric strt6.

Haley and Hannah are both loving climbing after yesterday. Haley getting a reminder and Hannah getting a first time. It looks like we'll be climbing a lot over the winter because Hannah's getting signed up for an after school climbing class.

You should get them into competitive climbing, then maybe crack climbing too.
