    Glad you made.it through, looks like one to remember.  Also, when living on the edge of civilization and with transportation being critical, why do you have a Range Rover? Seems more.like a late 1980s Toyota Hilux would be better.

    This sloppy joes bring back great memories. My mom used to make great sloppy joes from ground beef, onions, and green peppers. She made the sauce but look and taste from ketchup, mustard, vinegar and some other secret ingredients. SWMBO has gotten very close to duplicating it but she usually uses ground turkey in her continued mission to keep me healthier.

    we have a tundra up there, no traction, too many times ive had to pull it out of the mud.  the driveway to the left was being used, up the driveway, take a right, thru 3 front yards, and back on the road to avoid the wires. didnt do that but it was the emergency route to escape if you needed gas for the generators, next year mine gets wired in somehow, not one existing panel will shut the house or garages down. i think i may need to put a lockout switch near the meter, before the panels. sebago is not at the end of the world

    Not sure I've ever seen sloppy Joes served up on English muffins, but now I think I want them!

    was going to be a pasta carbonara but bottled water was an issue, my stock was low. those sloppy joes belong on bulkies. so carbonara on new years is the plan

    Enough light to demonstrate proper butter application. 

    Assuming you have all the essentials (water, food, medications, fuel) it actually looks like a cozy way to spend the holidays.
