You are not starving that is for sure! Good looking eats! I was gonna make some masubes(Hawaiian Spam Sushi) today and discovered that The Japanese like gizzard shad nigiri (fish on top of rice type sushi). There may be an untapped market for sushi grade gizzard shad!
We had a couple hits this week. I made Chicken Tamale Pie (Google it), and my wife tried her hand at homemade butter. Butter was stinking easy on her Kitchen Aid Blender. So good!
MDC kinda sucks at managing regular maintenance and construction projects. Columbia Bottom Conservation area has been all but abandoned, and the Shell Osage "Remodel" is years overdue with no end in sight. All the stuff they bought 50 years ago is falling apart.
You are correct, I have a few ribald stories about Bad Breathbreath Anny Gumball, Rosie Roundheels, Suzie Rottencrotch, and Eileen the BJ Queen. Don’t kiss and tell!
I have no idea, but I'm sure it involved a Grandpa Pigeon's purchased Zebco 202 and Sunnen Lake in Potosi, MO. I still wish that I had that combo, but I broke the rod beating a cottonmouth to death with it 45-50ish years ago. The spillway below the dam was one of our favorite spots, but very snakey.
Side note, a buddy got some great food press today. Check him out if your in STL.

I saw a $35 lobster roll on a menu this weekend. We went someplace else. It is hard to eat out for less than $20 a plate for lunch or $30 for dinner these days. Add a bar tab and apps, and it gets pricey fast.
