    I think it is going to be rather low key. I think the main things I want to do is to finish wedding ceremony planning. I am getting married in May, and my wife-to-be is doing her bachelorette party this weekend, so I will be solo. I am planning on talking to the event coordinator tomorrow and getting it all finalized.
    On Sunday, I am going to have brunch with my friend who co-runs the Burning Man camp I used to run. (Black rock bakery). I guess she is going to ask if I am going to go. I registered for tickets, but I am not sure it would be wise to go: With my wedding and associated honeymoon, I am already at four weeks vacation this year. I thought it would actually be worse than that.. hmm. Perhaps we will go.

    I also need to make some ice cream base on Sunday. We just got a new office at work, and I am going to have a liquid nitrogen ice cream party to honor it. I am going to be practicing for the batch that I am going to make for the wedding. I am gonna be doing a chocolate and a cardamom. It has been almost two years since I last made LN2 ice cream. I forgot the recipe, but I think it goes something like 50/50 heavy cream and whole milk, about a cup of sugar per gallon, and about a half pound of chocolate or a few tbsp of cardamom. I used this book "Big gay ice cream" as my guide, but I left it in the trailer for the burning man camp, so I will just wing it. It's a basic Philadelphia style ice cream. So I will whip up about two gallons of base and fridge it till the opening party.
