    Ogden, Texas!   :-h
     
    You wouldn't think of the Salt Lake City area as being the most polluted in the country, but this last January it was, 22 "Red" air quality days.  :-O  The legislature responded by outlawing hairspray, just last week (I'm not kidding).  
    I had sore throat and eyes during that time, and lots of coughing, many of my co-workers were sick a lot.  I had planned to retire here but am now looking at Austin; love that city!

    (bell that means "yes") ding ding ding ding!

    I just finished up about 10 pounds of a new creation - "beet sausage".  Has beets, pork, bacon, fennel, mace, grn onions, parsley, red and black pepper, brandy, wine and a bunch of other stuff.  Man, SWMBO hates beets, but she loved this sausage.  One of the thangs I'm bringing to the fest.

    I need to case about 25 more pounds of a different flavor.  Sucks with the KA.  I think I might buy a piston stuffer.

    few pics.

    xactly.  It's probably been done before but I couldn't find it on the interwebs with a brief search, which was mixed news.  The beets add a little earthy flavor and a hell of a wacked out purple color.  The cooked juice looks like fresh blood.  I might call them "vampire sausages" for the kids.  I did say I'd probably make a few of them cry.

    I live about 4 miles from there.  It's top tier.  There is a lot of great TexMex here so there are a half dozen other places that are equally good.  For reasons that are unclear to me even as I type this, we typically only go there when we have company in town.  I guess it's because he have a great Mexican dive near us that is 90% as good, 1/2 the price and takes 1/2 the time....
