OT - What are you doing right now?

I made a vegan chilli and used the first of the smoked Moruga chillies I grew this year. I had no idea how hot these would be, so used 2 small ones in a pan of chilli. These are hot stuff, I'm amazed to have got such hot chillies grown here.

Reorganized and love some furniture in the basement/my office.  Now enjoying a manhattan while SWMBO talks to SWMBO Sr on the phone.  Will start black-eyed peas and collards in a few.

@Acn: Hard to beat the satisfaction of a job well done at home. Enjoy the drink and meal!

Man, you guys with basements are so lucky.

My pork butt finished.  FTCing now.  11 lb bone in pork butt took just over 7 hrs to finish, with no wrap.  There was a very brief stall. It’s amazing how much more quickly things cook in the KBQ.

Enjoying these tasty little hamburger looking treats.

Took the dog out for some frisbee time.  Three poops with only two bags, that’s the thanks I get.

Enjoying the fact that Norte Dame football lost in the Fiesta Bowl.

There’s just no way that measly 1/3 pounder could satisfy my appetite.

Riding back from Breckenridge to Denver. Probably with a torn ligament in my right knee. Hoping all of you are having a better first day of 2021.

Really?  That’s pretty standard for me - anywhere from 10-13 lbs.  No pics, so I probably just made the whole thing up anyway

Was that game on PPV?  I can't believe its not on any of the four local networks.

ESPN. I am surprised it isn’t on ABC, at least in the Salt Lake and Ohio markets.

Well most my butts are double packed at 16lbs -18lbs for two....

I'll keep my eye out.

@Foghorn - You skiers, water and snow, are pushing the limits. (The prior was intended to acknowledge your warm weather prowess.)  This is hoping your independent assessment misses the mark. Dang- but on the plus side, you can/were able to get out there and enjoy til the injury.  Enjoy the relative youth while you can.
Happy New Year.

Thanks @lousubcap.  Yeah, it was day 7 of skiing this week.  We had a good week.  Skied all day for 6 days - 5 of them with the whole family before our eldest offspring took off for a weekend with a friend in DC.  Had fresh snow every day.  Just got surprised by the depth of the crater between two moguls on my first real run (after 2 easy warm-up runs) of the day.

As snow skiing has always been WAY secondary to water skiing for me, I do have some consternation about how this is going to impact my ability to enjoy water sports going forward.

Driving home from over a week with family in Ohio and driving into crummy weather west of Chicago. The last 350 miles of this trip are going to be slow and hope uneventful.  Seen a enough cars in the ditch now that everyone is driving with much more caution.

Safe travels!

Thanks - took about an extra hour and half over normal, but made it safe.  All I can ask for with the weather.  Iowa roads were much better than Illinois.
