    I got my meat slicer out this afternoon and sliced the leftover pork chops I brought home. 3.8 pounds worth, most to be vac-sealed and frozen tomorrow.

    I made a pot of Brunswick stew yesterday. Had a bowl for dinner last night. It IS gathering quality, so I’m bring that. I also had a bowl of my SW beans, and while good, there are a little too spicy for my wife and she suggested I go ahead and take them too, so save her some heartburn.

    I have two pound I will be bringing as well. It’s your basic breakfast sausage with some fennel seed added. A little different. Good, but not my favorite.
