A few days ago that crap was predicted to hit here.

It looks fine on your porch.

 

Huh?

 

i cant smart off to you cause i think its a lady, Weesa! crap now she has my Avitar.come on!!and you do too!! thats way out of my league on computer skills.

 

And that's why I don't check the weather anymore. Precipitation here is a commodity and it's the desert. With all the science and computers and indicators and models and other technology you'd think these people could tell me if it's going to rain or not with some measure of accuracy. The only time they are halfway accurate is when it's actually raining. Yet we just had about an inch of rain (which is about 1/6th of what we get a year) and they couldn't get that right. I swore them off a couple months ago. They're as full of shit as mainstream media of either flavor.

 

I think the main point is that real Mayo is always better than the artificial dog barf. Goes for pretty much all food. At least to me.



Sun came out and warmed up nicely today. Broke one of the shovels out on the deck. Because bacon I'm sure the dog helping me by attacking the shovel like he always does had nothing to do with it

 

In high school i cooked under an exective chef and we made homemade mayo. no comparision. he wanted to send me to culinary school but i was too wild, dang wish i knew then what i do now.

 

From 1925 to 1967 it was illegal to sell margarine in Wisconsin.

 

I didn't add real mayo, I doubt most people have ever tried it.

And I have relatives in the business, better you didn't go that way.

 

yea i understand that!! i was 16,17 and it was my first job, washin dishes. his souse didnt show up on a busy nite and he hollered for me to help him. he did the mains and i pulled em and preped em and plated the sides.handed me a wad of cash at end of nite and i was his new assistant!! i still love to cook and its one of the only things that relaxes me. but yea its a rough business!!

 

I have my grandmother's mustard recipe. It comes out more like custard than that squeeze bottle babyshit they sell in the stores. If you've ever had something like the Boar's Head hot mustard, it's almost similar to that. It's a vinegar base. Last time I had it was when I was a teen when my aunt made it. But one of these days I'll whip up a batch. Only problem is everyone who's made it is no longer with us so if I screw it up I don't have a coach

 

....and you DO make some of the best deer bologna in the valley!

 

id like that recipe if you can share itBoars Head is what i use!

 

I'm pretty sure it's on my other phone. I'll dig it out in a couple weeks. There's other stuff I need to get out of it also.

 

When we bought our house there was almost the same thing in the driveway when we got there. Owner showed up a couple days later and picked it up about an hour after I called the realtor and asked if it was mine now.

Walmart lists it at $29 for 32oz
Amazon

Yes butter tastes much better but the whole clogged arteries thing, trust me, I know. So now we use Smart Balance. Fair substitute.
We keep Hellman’s for mayo. Miracle shit is not mayo but we keep a small jar in there for recipes that call for it. Will have to try some Duke’s



Still recovering from Sciatica, working 4 hour shifts, getting better... slowly. Have a good one.

 

Good luck with the Sciatica, took me a full year. It sucks.

On the clogged artery thing, if your using Smart Balance with vegetable oil instead of real butter you most likely are making it worse. I can't make this stuff up.

A year ago the findings of the most detailed study of animal fats vs. vegetable fats ever done were found in a basement of a home in the Twin Cities and are still being analysed. It was done starting in 1968 for 56 months on more than 9,000 people in one of the most detailed blind studies ever done. Before the study was conducted margarine had to be sold in triangle shape in Mn. It was so detailed that Dr. Frantz who conducted the study was able to get the law overturned so that it could be sold shaped like butter so the participants didn't know which they were getting. The 9,000 people were institutionalized so he had total control over their diet.

Yes Vegetable oil reduced cholesterol levels, but that didn't help with heart disease.

*substituting vegetable oils lowered total blood cholesterol levels, by an average of 14 percent.

*But that lowered cholesterol did not help people live longer. Instead, the lower cholesterol fell, the higher the risk of dying: 22 percent higher for every 30-point fall.

Good read in SA about it. https://www.scientificamerican.com/...basement-undermine-decades-of-dietary-advice/

It isn't the only study of its kind to show the same thing. But it is going to be a long time before recommendations are changed.

 

Well here we are again, enjoy the day.

 

Another couple weeks, and it's 2 years since I got cut.
So far,so good.
The only damage I have is some numbness on part of my right foot.
I'll take that over the pain I had pre-surgery.

 

Don't do it.

 

That’s not a big enough dosage for me.
