That right there is fun!!

My indoor lettuce is looking good. Maters are just starting to get true leaves—they’re behind a little. Can’t get peppers to pop even though I presprouted them. May have to buy plants. Started ground cherries and they’re popping. Lots on the plate the next 60 days. Gonna have to find time for all this.

Shrimp and veggie sir fry. Little sauce of white wine, rice vinegar, teriyaki sauce and cornstarch to thicken.

The absolute pinnacle of BS! And you’ve got a mighty big mountain of it beneath. You should be proud! 😄

Someone is ripe for an IRS audit

What are you guys, British? Nobody here goes 'to university'.

Don’t know where else to put this, so I’ll put it here. A friend suggested this show the other day. I’ve watched the first few and it’s hilarious. Available on Amazon Prime https://www.amazon.com/Corner-Gas/dp/B07KWHJPSK/ref=nodl_

Irish Soda Bread. I make mine kinda sweet with dried cranberries inside and raw sugar sprinkled over the top. And, one of my personal favorites — Shepherd’s Pie. Done with Guinness in the gravy this time. Updating the recipe 😄

Or more likely bored attorneys trying to find products without warnings to make up warnings for. Like: ”Airborne pepper can make you sneeze. Please exercise caution when applying.”

So, how were the spring rolls? 😄

Lol. I laughed so hard Ruby hid under the table 😄

I think we’ve all given into the temptation to eat flour right out of the bag. Thank goodness it now comes with a warning!

Welcome Jay.

Tonight here it was Aunt Lori’s Sloppy Joes and tater tots with ness 2.3. First I peeled 5 pounds of Yukon Gold potatoes, then parboiled them for 290 seconds, and ran them through the tot die on the Kitchen Aid before putting measured amounts into Grandma Vi’s tot press.... Ok—I’m making that part up. It was Ore Idas, and they were tasty done in the oven. Woulda been better deep fried, but I don’t do dat. Super sweet sloppy Joes for the boy, and sent him home with enough to get him through a day or more. It was a good night here.

Dang. Agree on the chops. It’s a fine line between delicious and shoe leather.

You just can’t come on here and say, ‘I marinated them all afternoon’. What in, dang it?😄 I do admire a guy that admits shortcuts on the rice and salad. Time is scarce!

Kinky!

Left overs. Wish there was more, dang it.

I think I’m a pretty lucky guy because Kathy and I just work well together — in the kitchen and everywhere else. She dragged her waffle iron over and this morning we made some dang tasty waffles again: Then this evening I scratched my Cajun itch with a shrimp etouffee. Shrimp seasoned with paprika, thyme, oregano, onion powder, garlic powder, white pepper, black pepper. Sautéed onion, celery and pepper in oil and butter until soft. Added remaining spice mixture and flour, tomato paste and then chicken stock. ‘Who’s your sister’ sauce and cooked until everything was just right then added the shrimp. Served over rice with some hot sauce for me. Darn tasty, if I do say so myself.

This talk discourages the superior side-angle shots. Shame on you two! Seriously you guys crack me up scouring the background in the pics 😀

Thanks for the history. I’d call this a top 5 for me. Hard to name a favorite. I recorded this from TCM a couple years ago but hadn’t watched it recently. I enjoyed the TCM commentary. I guess Ford tried to get the movie made for years but couldn’t. Agreed to do a western —Rio Grande — in exchange for consideration of this. The Cowboys is a great movie with great music. I remember hearing John Wayne told Bruce Dern everyone would hate him for what happens. Haven’t seen The Shootist in many years though I need to.

Been a couple years since I watched this one. ‘Tis the season ☘️

Yeah, I think they’re pretty easy to catch too. On the quest for a CO River Cutt I caught something like 75 brookies.
