Wake up, y'all

I was awake too, I had to answer all the important PM"s, make coffee, and put sausages on my kitchen gadget griddle.

Mmmm... Coffee... I should go make some but I don't feel like moving.

We find even the gadgets can be too big. The power cooker is way too large. When I see a pan or dish to cook in, I need to fill it..BAD me..


The chickens love the left overs..


Gadgets are also energy efficient making me feel like I am doing my part to reverse the mythical global warming gods.

The earthworms get the lions share of the leftovers, veggies that is. Meat scraps and bones are frozen and when I get enough I make bone soup for the chickens.

Hope you enjoyed that, mike

Don't sound much fun in those temps.

It's hasn't been to bad, pretty shady.

We don't get much rain from here out. 90's will be standard for awhile now. Although this weekend is nice. It won't last. Difference here is it's a dry heat.
Have loads of fun with the trees. Do they every get any interesting grain to them

The wood splitting is actually at the lake cottage, so there is a bit more humidity than at home. No interesting grain, the maple has been real straight, and splitting nicely.

I'm missing seven in this last week, can't find a single trace.

Sorry to hear that, Dan.

Hi Mike

I smoked half a turkey breast (just over 13 pounds). Turned out pretty good, going to do the other half breast and leg/thigh quarter soon.

Ah I was thinking of pen making with the interesting grain comment. Maple tends to be very boring grain wise unless there's a knot or rotten spot.

Mike, no fair making us hungry if you aren't gonna share...

Very nice. I'd love to be able to smoke meat here but I'd be the only one eating it.

I might set some aside, wax the ends and do some lathe work with some of it. Need some practice, about all I can make with it is a mess really fast!
