    cheese burger with regular bread and a cheese burger sans any bread.
    Ever tried mayo instead of butter when toasting bun/bread for burger or grilled cheese?  I find mayo gives a nice golden color and crisp texture.
    I’m a fan of using Mayo to toast the bread too. I’ll butter the inside and use Mayo on the outside. I like the color and I think it “toasts” crispier.

    Don't buy blue Fiestaware unless you want to run each food pic through a filter to fix the color bias (I obviously don't bother that's why my food pics look weird).

    @nolaegghead Ha. We have the same blue Fiestaware. You are correct.

    No, but I recall you saying that.  I'll have to give it a shot.  I had to run to the store yesterday as we were out of butter.
    The last Grilled Cheese I made, I buttered one outside and mayo'd the other outside slice.  
    I'm good with that.  For life.

    I can't take much credit for this but my wife wants to start a garden for next year. So she's tackled this project on her own. 



    Nice looking soil, WeberWho!

    Thanks @rifrench

    I wish I could claim that as our soil. It's 4 truck loads worth of compost from the local outdoor recycling center. The neighbor swears by it. He knows way more than I do when it comes to gardening so it seemed like sound advice.

    Far from that but thanks! Always nice to help family when you can. I figure the worst thing that could happen was that they would have to bring it to a mechanic who actually knows what they're doing to fix it. It also helped that I went over my snowblower with the same Tecumseh engine a few days prior for the routine maintenance portion of it. So everything was still fresh in my mind yet.

    Once the part arrived I was able to put everything back together to see if the carb cleaning helped any. The very first pull it fired up from 2-3 years of sitting. Yes!!! That never happens. 
    Well, we now have to say "That rarely happens."  Congrats!

    @WeberWho great job! Reminds me of an old lawnmower I fixed ... top and bottom halves of the gas tank was splitting apart, I sealed the joint with JBWeld like epoxy. It wasn’t worth replacing the tank even if I could find one.

    Right on! I picked up a free 2 stroke Toro lawnmower years ago on Craigslist thinking I'd push my front portion of the yard. That never ended up happening. So it sat. My sister in law bought their first house and needed a mower. So the was the perfect opportunity to get it out of my shed. I cleaned the carb, new fuel lines, fuel filter, sharpened the blade, and fixed an issue with the drive system. Probably way more work than what it's worth. With all that work done it still has a leaky fuel tank at the middle seam. Every once in awhile I'll look for a used or fee one but pretty much left it up to them to fix it if it bothered them any. I think my sister in law has to refuel 2-3 times with their tank each mowing. Nothing like hearing a 2 stroke push mower. Pretty neat.
