I bought one of those copper sheets that's just a roll. Came with 2. It's nonstick. I put it on top of the grill on your typical campsite fire ring and do bacon, cinnamon toast (it's way better this way, I don't know why) and all things requiring griddle surface. Burgers and sausage on the grill over a fire is always great. Country style ribs (a cut up butt) are great that way too.
It's kind of amazing how electric ceiling fans just keep going.

Are you trying to confirm that you are a fareplay alter? It makes sense. A young version and an older version of unlikable, each capable of starting the worst threads ever.

Everything from the materials it sits in and flows through along the process, what they cleaned containers with, temperatures at each step along the process contributes to flavor as well. Having the bottle solves none of that.

My favorite fishing is the kind where you have more time fishing than doing all the prep, driving, fixing shite, driving back, and cleanup. I guess that's fishing off a pier from the lake house I'm staying at on vacation.
For the first time in years here in mid-TN we have gotten steady rain since the end of May. Mowing has actually been a challenge most weeks, it's thick. Our drought was April to early May, which pissed off the poplars and otherwise didn't affect much.

Someone should make an app where you hold your hand up to the camera and it tells you what pistols will fit you best. Fit is real, it either does or not.

Wagyu tomahawk (I'm eating the whole thing)
brussel sprouts
And dammit, my willpower keeps me from drinking chocolate milk these days, so at least a quart of the good thick stuff.

Well, as our eyes get older we seem to be able to distinguish less of them pixels and such.

I've had a router and switches fried from a nearby hit, not even direct. Ethernet is sensitive, but it likes it some action.

Rain Soft was here when we moved in, it's been easy enough. Refill salt twice/year or so, have changed the RO filter once in 8 years.

Why not? If you buy a good one, just put a little flavor on it and don't overcook. I do mine hot in the smoke chamber with cherry wood, it's never bad.

I already have a sledge to swing at it. I have been eyeing the flamethrower...I know it's metal but I'm sure that's a problem for wires and sensors. Where can I get an EMP?

Maybe a dumb question, why don't they just make shingles that reflect the solar energy a lot more?
