    My story

    Almost anything smoked but sausage the best. Unfortunately (????) Am the only one besides my kids that will partake of my creations. So that means more for me but also limits the size of product I make at a time . A person can eat only so much after all,but i try lol.

    Alpha-gal Syndrome

    Here like other places ticks come and go. This past summer one of my dogs (English golden) got bit by one. $4000.00 later she is back to her self. Hoping no lasting effects. Have heard from other people some of the other side effects those bugs can produce. Not pleasant at all.
