Dan Weiss

This is what Dan Weiss has been up to lately…

After returning to my home state of Connecticut, I have been playing with my golden retriever dogs Chewbacca and Indiana— yes…we’re big Harrison Ford fans!

When not out for walks with my puppies, I do free weights, yoga via videos, and transcendental meditation.  I have also been demonstrating my newly acquired cooking skills to my dad, mom, and sister. They include such classics as, steak and…well, just steak.  We just ordered Monopoly and Catan, so I am excited to have family game-nights soon!

Over here in the Jordan/McMillan household, we’ve been watching a lot of Great British Bake-Off on Netflix, and catching up on the most recent season of Star Trek: Picard.

I’ve been playing a lot of Jackbox.tv with friends and family scattered all over the country. Matt’s been playing Apex Legends with his friends in the Cities.

I subscribed to Christopher Kimball’s Milk Street Online Cooking School (free until April 30^th) and have been testing out some great recipes. We are so happy to have a supply of farm fresh eggs from the neighbors next door!
