    Took a drive up East Canyon this afternoon (from Morgan UT to SLC).  As I approached the summit I noticed the temp dropped to 26º, and the roads "looked" wet; had summer tires on so I took the hairpins very slowly, could open up again once I got on the west face.
    Will probably do that drive again tomorrow, and bring a damn camera this time...  (oof-dah!)

    Over a month ago I smoked butts for a party.  I just opened the egg to see the drip pan still in place.  Damn, I have been too busy .
    That's every time for me.  I'm not busy that I know of, just lazy and forgetful.

    Now that I’m finally feeling better (thank goodness) I’m writing some Christmas poetry to share with my forum friends over the holidays. May even write a new song or two as well.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    City picks up leaves like that? They would have to be bagged or in a can at least here. 
    @dobie yeah it’s freaking awesome. They have this massive vacuum that comes by and sucks them up. 

    I went through 50 bags last year and set them out. Then I saw the neighbors do this...I felt like a schmuck out there un-bagging them for pickup.

     Don’t feel bad, I picked up a lawn care customer years ago, we spent a whole day dragging out years of leaves on tarps to the curb.  Probably 100 yards worth on a corner lot. 
     Came back two weeks later, they were still there, wet muddy, cars driving through them omg it was a disaster, turns out the house was just outside the city limits. 
     Winged a rock through his window with string trimmer also at some point. 

      FYI if you have to move shvt loads of leaves, blow or rake them onto a tarp and drag them to the curb with your riding mower.

    @alaskanassasin that's a rough year for that dude.

    And yes, I spent most of my childhood using the blower to tarp to tractor technique.

    Unfortunately I've got a push mower now...so I'm the mule dragging them all day!

    I don't think I took any of the back side, but it was basically a hole about the size of an apple.  I forgot the name of the caliber we were shooting but I think the closet factory round is 6.5 Creedmore.

    Sorry, I didn't think to do that when we were prepping it last night.  It's a pretty simple filling, carrots, potatoes, chicken, and peas in a dressed up bechamel sauce.  But the pie crust is homemade - my MIL visited this weekend and made a batch to stick in the freezer.

    That probably generates a whole topic of its own, but I'm curious as to what others think - Butter, Cristco, or Butter/Cristco combo for pie crusts?

    My grandmother always used lard. I gave up years ago at trying to replicate that crust.

    Refrigerated Crisco. It has to be cold.

    Now that's an interesting idea...I'm sure there's loads of flavor in that crust.
