In my pursuit of simplifying my life, caviar was among the first to go.  Then I declared victory on wine so now I'm enjoying great proteins, brown water and always leaded beer.  I figure those will get me across the finish-line.

A few Black Angus Strips and some cheap thin steaks for the kids, because they aren't that smart.

Shouldn't you be suffering the cheap thin steaks and your kids getting an education in good food?

Yum!

Cleaning out my attic from years of neglect. Came across this blast from the past....

Preparing for tomorrow’s colonoscopy and wondering why am looking at all this wonderful food on this website when all I can do is drink apple juice and hang around the bathroom. I’m learning I can take just about anything for one day. Somewhere in the back of my mind I hear Fletch asking “hey Doc ever pulled any time”?

@Eoin, no sir. My 16 year old son eats, no, inhales his food so quickly that I'm not sure that he can even taste it.  The 18 y/o wants it well done with ketchup. The 8 y/o is spoiled and usually gets a completely different supper. 
I have tried. They are getting better with "different" food, but steak is not one of them.

Just give them a bite of a properly cooked steak so they know what to expect when they get older lol

What are you talking about? Sounds like @Battleborn is raising a future president.

B-I-L just gifted me this, thinking himself quite the comedian.

Something to go with NYE leftovers.

In the midst of the stall on brisket point cook.  Picked up 3 degrees on the IT over the last few hours.  Dome temp is 250-260.  Gonna run to the store for some sides and wrap when I get home.  Happy Sunday!

It is a nation-wide natural disaster.  Unfortunately their climate is inducive to this.
"According to the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM), 80% of the land receives less than 600 mm (24 in) of rainfall annually and 50% has even less than 300 mm (12 in). As a whole, Australia has a very low annual average rainfall of 419 mm (16 in)."  
Not implying anything beyond it is a generally dry country/continent and coupled with the record high temperatures this summer a terrible situation.  
Likely only to get worse in the coming years.

I’ve had too much to understand what y’all are taking about.

strange usually at least the north eastern Australia has rain, in fact has tropical rain forests. The central part has mostly been a desert for centuries. There’s a costal fringe in the south east that usually has decent climate. I heard that the fires have wiped out 30% of all koalas. Probably more will starve to death. They only eat eucalyptus leaves and eucalyptuses are more flammable than pine trees.

While the US is not as inherently hot as Australia, the warmer temperatures have increased the range of a certain grub that's killing so many of the trees throughout the Rockies, which I've been noticing for about 10 years now.  Lots and lots of standing, dead wood.
It'll only take a few lightning storms....

Did some pantry organization because I can't find sh!t.

We have a very small house (1400 square feet) and are very poor.

Also, made some pasta for tomorrow.  My friend's kid and his gf are staying the next 3 days to look for jobs.  

nolaegghead

Just a prep, will need an hour in the oven.

Cleaned up the shop yesterday.  Just a dent in it.  But progress is progress.

nolaegghead

Inherently lazy, I am proud of any forward progress, regardless of magnitude.

@nolaegghead are you. Pregnant?   Some serious nesting syndrome going on there.

Jazz has been sleeping in the shop.  He's being a **** about hanging in the house since we brought back the new kitten from San Antonio.

Don't let the "cuteness" of this monster fool you.  She has already eviscerated a dozen or so raccoons and has us involved in a few personal injury lawsuits.
