The only way to figure this one out is through the taste test. Problem is I lost your address, accidentally deleted all messages

Oh yea more hidden talent showing up. Well done young apprentice! hahahaha The possibilities in paint schemes a guy can come up with are endless. The plain cork on the top photo fades from top to bottom nice and the diver/slider that green really pops under the epoxy. Give us more Mr. Ness. I have not messed with any lately. Have too many distractions going on right now. Great job friend, BilletHead

I know this batch was pixwel ness. Got them picked in the green stage just before they start turning purpleish and more ripe.I know in our new patch we have at least one pixwel and really don't know what the other bushes are. I bet they would be great with strawberries. Thom1as these are tame bushes, well manicured and mowed around. A bit less tickles than the wild ones in the timber. Gives a good excuse for a good tick check though! BilletHead

All the bbq sauce jars pinged and sealed so it is time to start Jammin! Here we go the gooseberries out of the freezer, Berries with pectin getting happy, Added the sugar to the mix, now were happy,happy,happy! Short stuff stirring, stirring, stirring while bringing to a boil. Notice the stool for elevation? Time to ladle the goodness into the jars, Got them filled, Enough left for warm sampling on bread and butter. This was a double batch of jam = a gallon of gooseberries. BilletHead

Ok Scott, Next time you make a run to Rogers pick me up one of those carts. It will save me shipping as you deliver on your way back home. Meet you in town as you go by, pay you for the cart and send you on your way with sauce and a bonus of goose berry jam. BilletHead

I think you just got lucky. Cheap too. When two are fishing out of my boat I use shower curtain rings for one guy. For more than two I suppose you could spray paint a set to get another color. Does a good job if you keep fish to eat too. Nice to have that ring to grab to separate the catches, BilletHead

Hot outside so we decided to make a double batch of sauce. We will start off with blurred ingredients. Ok getting everything ready, sterile and cooking begins, Fully cooked and heated. Time to ladle into hot jars, Happiness is hearing the jar lids pinging. Soon to follow gooseberry jam, next post! BilletHead

Mrs. BilletHead and I will be involved helping on this program. Spread the word please, BilletHead

Yea that place, I had already got off to a good start but that place gave me a shot of nitrous oxide. Thanks for passing it on Ness. Good work Jason, BilletHead who is waiting for Nesse's popperistic stippled mind blowing creations.

See there we can all have a good discussion without getting our panties in a wad. I know one thing though. With all of the lists of the elite. I feel real good about my little old yeti. Like Bird Watcher said you all have a safe and fun holiday weekend. Think about the working man of woman. The one who serves you your big mac, the one who built your house, etc. as you enjoy the weekend! BilletHead

Just thinking outside the box Ness. Hate to not use them someway. Reckon I could put some figs in the smoker? BilletHead

Pretty good quill, Smoked peppers in soft tacos last night and put some on grilled cheese sandwiches this evening. At this rate there won't be any to freeze for the winter. I smoked some coarse salt today. What could be better than smoked salt? BilletHead

Pretty neat Scott. It even has a waist strap for hands free pulling. Would not need a harness when hitching up the mule! Another thing that worries me about it. Would it put me farther up the elite list? Not sure if I want to climb any farther up that ladder, BilletHead

Ok Ronnie I'll give you your points back.

All I can say is your the man Kayser, I was once young and tough. Will the before mentioned decoy carts break down for transport in a vehicle? One thing though, You can't borrow the mule! BilletHead

Ronnie I think she thought you might be on her side but the implications of the wife mule thing in the same sentence gets you zero points and maybe me a few more points. Bird Watcher would an a person with a dedicated enclosed trailer for goose hunting qualify? Oh yea I have seen such person duck hunt fields out of the same trailer. BilletHRead

Jerry they are the composite deck boards. Our Sutherlands had a pile of assorted boards discounted and I got enough for one bed. Liked it so much went back the next day for more. BilletHead

Terrierman she can do the pretty thing too. I must be doing something right and if I knew what it was I would share the secret for sure. BilletHead Blue moon or Shiner bock my choice. No more than one a day and it will be with a meal.

Well since things were going contrary it was time for getting the beds going for lettuce. Pulled the tomatoes, and cleaned and removed the trellises. Got the little toy tiller and turned the soil. I did my best before to clean all the tomato mess from pulling so hopefully no baby tomatoes come up. Mixed a conglomerate of different lettuce seeds in a shaker bottle and shook out a seed bed. Took the back of the rake and tamped the seeds into the soil. Used the sprinkler to wet down the soil and seeds, My work is done and it is now up to the good lord and mother nature for the rest. BilletHead

No did not change the password. hahahha I have noting to hide from the Mrs. I am as you probably know a very lucky guy to have her. Besides I would not want to train another. I'm too old for that. This is a good topic and again open a can of worms. Who of all of us has bought something that is overpriced, frugal to others? Guilty by me and I would say everyone else on here. He who has not been guilty here cast the first stone. Know I know why I like you Chris. Oh by the way we sometimes shop at the salvation army, goodwill and garage sales. Thereby helping someone else and us. Maybe that is why we indulge once and a while? Do your adult beverages consist of Milwaukie's best or Heineken ? BilletHead

Only got one in each column. I fall in the opposite of elite. Maybe in the red neck category. BilletHead who does what pleases him (Mrs. BilletHead) I mean !

Yucky looking for sure but tasty none the less. I ask the Mrs. if she wanted a fig leaf outfit. BilletHead

Oh no I thought some of you were my friends! Now I'm going to sleep with one eye open. Wonder how many pairs of shoes and purses she could get in the cooler price difference Ness? Hard to type with a straight face keeping this between just the guys here. And the gall of me to send her off to work everyday so I can get all this cool stuff! Ronnie she wants you to PM her your address. Don't do it dude it would be bad news, In deep doo doo the BilletHead

Mrs Billethead here...I should have known something was up when Marty was sitting over there in his chair laughing his fool head off! I have ways of getting information from him; and he cannot lie to me! What he said about this cooler is the truth. But now we come to bigger things. Since I made him tell me what was going on, how should I deal with this? The mule remarks?? Ronnie, do you have any ideas?? Chris, what are you laughing about?? How come you and Scott did not let me know what was going on here and not ratted him out?? He is right about one thing: when we go hunting, I do most of the work!!!!! He is nice enough to allow me to shoot some of the birds though. I will in the future keep a better eye on what he might be saying about me! <img title=":)" class="bbc_emoticon" src="http://forums.ozarkanglers.com/public/style_emoticons/default/smile.png" data-cke-saved-src="http://forums.ozarkanglers.com/public/style_emoticons/default/smile.png" />

Fig jam sounds good Mr. Guide, I may have to google that recipe up. Thanks, BilletHead
