All these years I assumed the hole in the handle of a pan was for hanging it. I never realized the real intention:

Ooooh, SO stolen!

Sorry bud, I'm sure it's all over the place.  Awesome start.  Love me some Negan.  My favorite seasons were Woodbury and the Gov.

I saw this guy spend about 3-4 minutes trying to figure out how to get his Yeti cooler out of his Mustang. He tried every possible way to get it out other than turning the thing inside out. Once he finally got it out he didn't find what he was looking for. Another 3 minutes goes by trying to get the cooler back in the trunk. Mind you that the cooler was empty. I'm thinking it would have been an hour plus if the cooler was loaded down with something. Yeti sure has done a good job marketing. People are going to buy it for the name even if it doesn't necessarily fit in your trunk!

Devil's advocate:  that is a new(er) mustang. He might have had the cooler before the car.  

Regardless, must have been entertaining to watch. it got in there, so it had to be able to come out. I would have sat there and watched as well.

I was waiting for a restaurant to open up behind me. So this hot shot pulls up in his flashy Mustang with custom exhaust. Look at me type of person. I just found it comical that he took minutes to get his Yeti cooler in/out of his trunk with people watching him. I shouldn't assume. I just saw the flashy Mustang, bright Jordans, and than a Yeti in the trunk.

Just scored some fresh eggs from a friend of mine with chickens. Best eggs I've ever had. Very rich and buttery. Made some redneck huevos rancheros with thin slices of buttered/griddled corn bread, leftover smoked chili, easy over fried eggs, peach salsa, sour cream and guacamole. Looks like a hot mess, but my word...

I'll trade him for my soft cooler.

@WeberWho. Really, I would have done the same thing. Heck, I might have even started to video it!!   Would have been great to see a person throw a hissy not being able to get the cooler out!

Having dinner here at my house tonight. Must have missed the invite.

Finished pulling this and a friend.  Dinner tonight, some lunch for the kid through the week, and a bunch for an office potluck Wednesday.

Just signed a contract for some work to the homestead.  OOOF!!

Brand new siding, soffit, gutters, shutters, the whole 9 yards.  It'll look amazing when it's done, AND Momma's happy.  Happy wife.............

I'll probably cry when I write that check upon job completion, but hey, it's only money right?!!   RIGHT?!!!!!

Roll back to "Happy wife..."  Priceless.

Just spent an entire afternoon with my Opthalmologist. Already had an appointment for a checkup, but realized a few weeks ago that I could no longer read the scores from the football games on the tv. Yep, cataracts both eyes and possible retina damage. The next few months are going to be fun. I am now legally blind. After the first surgery, hubby will have to man the egg for awhile. Good times and grateful that it wasn't any worse than it is. Good news is that hubby will learn to use the egg instead of just stacking in the lump. Welcome to the golden years. Seriously, still very grateful.

Botch

Ouch!  Fingers crossed, Dredger!  

Dredger

Thanks @Botch, but no worries. This guy is the pro from Dover with a wicked sense of humor. When he did hubby's first cataract surgery, he told me not to worry that he had done a few of these before and besides that he had spent the night at a Holiday Inn Express the night before. At the time, I was not amused, but he was fantastic. It took him all of 3 minutes. He came out of the surgery room and I was sacred to death, thinking that something was wrong. I asked him what was wrong and he said "nothing, he did great and I am done". Great group of folks.

@Dredger
Several months prior to the passing of my MIL, we took her to get her eyes examined, and in the process, we were told she would need surgery, due to cataracts. She, too, was also considered, "legally blind". They were able to correct her vision to the point she no longer needed glasses, and her vision was 20-20 after the surgery.
An avid gardener, she had rare flowers from all over the world represented in her gardens around her home, and never saw the blooms and flowers until this year. She gave us 10 kinds of heck, after seeing her eyebrows, for the first time, in years, and "allowing her to leave the house looking like that". She was a beautiful lady, and a bit vain as it turned out. We still laugh about it.
She was thrilled with the results, post surgery.
We will be pulling for you. It is a beautiful world, and you deserve the opportunity to see it.

Dredger

Thank you so much @YukonRon. Now that is a funny story and, yes, I expect similar results. So glad that she was able to see her garden again. Hubby was amazed at the difference in his vision after his first eye was done. It was like he was seeing the world for the first time. When we got home, he went to the living room and saw the wide screen TV and asked "When did we get that?" He was exaggerating, of course, but it was funny. I had been for a check up at a different group and my one "good" eye was fine then, but that changed quickly, as they sometimes do. I can still see fairly well, but won't be cleared to drive until I get this done. Looking forward to 20/20 vision again.

Setting up the mini with a little pecan wood to smoke some bacon cheese burgers.

@SGH That will add some smoke for sure. Pecan is my fave.

Pecan is way up there on my list as well.

@SGH   Pecan is one of my favs as well - do you usually use so much smokewood?

Looks like a lot of smoke wood for burgers but would get good smoke on in the short cook.

That WS intro was spectacular

Only for things that cook real fast. These burgers were a 6 minute cook. In that short of time, the more wood the better. There is zero chance of over smoking in that short of a time frame. I would use less than half that amount for a loin or butt.
