Episode 8: Osman Ahmed

Gentle readers and listeners!  The March podcast is late, but it's here!  Featuring a member of the class of 1999 (we're really branching out these days!), Osman Ahmed!  We had a great conversation (for two and a half hours!) (Don't worry, only the last hour and a half is recorded.)  (Because Steve was late.  Really late.).

I know, I know, you're wondering where the February and March leafy vegetables are.  Well, feel free to harass Matthew about that.  We'll just have to feature three leafy vegetables in April.  And Katrina signed up for a CSA this summer, so fresh leafy vegetables will be all the rage.

Also, Katrina has successfully eaten at least one vegetable a day for the last two weeks.  That's a big deal for her, OKAY?

Osman generously brought sparkling cider in honor of Katrina's recent engagement, so we had to take a selfie with it.

From left to right, that's Steve, Osman, Katrina and Google Monkey.  (Colloquially, he goes by Nick.)  (Google Monkey made a brief appearance on this month's podcast.)

The toast!  With mugs!  

Osman also brought cupcakes in honor of Katrina and Google Monkey's engagement, so a cupcake selfie must be had!   (They were delicious - tiny little bundt cakes.)  Anyway, Katrina has a fancy Samsung Galaxy S7 phone that will take a selfie if you just hold your palm up.  It recognizes the palm, then sets a timer and three seconds later - selfie!  Osman was so excited about this new technology, that he didn't move his hand in time.
