Perhaps you’ve never head of a sourdough bread lobster? I hadn’t, and I live in San Francisco… part of its natural habitat. In an effort to satisfy tourists’ insatiable appetites for both seafood and sourdough bread, some enterprising baker invented (get this) bread in the shape of a crustacean. My co-worker Brandon received one of these masterpieces and decided to share it with the office. As you can see in the following photos, the claws and legs are definitely the most appealing part:

I also made it over to Oakland this evening for drinks and dinner, and on the way back I spotted The Crucible’s Fire Arts Festival next to the West Oakland BART station. I was skeptical when I heard that tickets were $40, but upon seeing the size of the flames generated and the elaborate stage setup I have a new level of respect for the event.
