    2 Boulevadiers down... maybe 3. 
    Is it true they taste better by a campfire out of a plastic bag?

    Only one way to find out. My bet is that they do =) Everything tastes better at BB.

    Sucks for sure. I was in there about a month or 2 ago and they didn’t have any on the floor. I asked Gary and he said they had like 10 more bags in the back so I grabbed 4. Did they still have the basques sugar maple? That was good stuff back in the day. Think I’m gonna give it a shot again. They said the Rockwood wasn’t selling which I don’t believe.

    Agree that the Basques is good stuff. Naked Whiz thinks so too. I get it seasonally at my local Costco.

    They had the sugar maple. I agree.  I don’t believe for a minute that Rockwood wasn’t selling.

    You saw they have their own brand now? I bet they will slowly get rid of the others if theirs starts selling.

    Wife took my daughter to the Dr today cause she had a bump on one side of her groin. She has a hernia and has to have surgery. Crappy timing.

    I didn’t see that. I didn’t stay long after I saw no Rockwood.

    Just reading that a malaria medication (Hydroxychloroquine) may help with covid19.  I've been on that for a few years now.

    Schools are shut from Monday. Likely until September. Dom has exams this summer, but will probably get given predicted grades, which are OK. Plus he doesn't have to do any more school work now. Plus it's burgers for tea. It was hard getting him to look sad.


    Looks like you had to slap him on the wrist to get him to do anything...

    My sister has 9 kids. Only the oldest is in in college in Milan who is now home. ALL of them are in different grades and all have online classes (at the same time) and homework. She "only" has 4 desktop computers and 3 Ipads, and her husband has a laptop. 

    She normally has a nanny and a housekeeper. Both no longer come. This is in Madrid. Crazy....

    First - My school is working remotely. Our school has been 1:1 with laptops for many years. Other than scheduling “office hours” through ZOOM it’s not really different. I hate we’re not doing all the hands-on labs and activities, but we’ll manage. I can assign virtual labs...

    Second - I’ve kicked around the idea of a food bog and YouTube channel for a while. I’m using my time to try and set that up. Don’t look for content anytime soon, lol. There’s a lot to set up and learn.

    I mailed a old pair of Costa Del Mar sunglasses I had laying around to florida because there is a small spring broken in the arm.  They informed me that my glasses model has been discontinued and pick out any new pair I want and they will mail them to me for $11.95.
    @alaskanassasin Great glasses. I have 2 pair with different lens colors I have sent the back for busted arms.  They send them back with a new case and chamois. In a normal world I got them back in 5-10 business days.  I have always been happy with their customer service.
