    So many tomatoes....

    I always made pasta sauce out of extra tomatoes. Never could get catnip to grow well, as the neighbor cats would trash the plants overnight as soon as they started sprouting leaves.

    Christmas came early! Too early. The email I got from the shipping company said it would be here on Friday at the soonest. I wasn't even at work for an hour this morning, when the driver calls me and says, "I'm here!" I ask if he can leave it at my door? He says the pallet won't fit in the...

    Most places, yes. That was my main consideration when I was looking. The bylaws here forbid only charcoal, and propane-where the bottle/tank is larger than 1 lb. So as far as I can see, I'm in the clear. Plus I'm on the top floor, corner unit; and the deck is well away from my two next door...

    Put in my order today. Now it feels like waiting for Christmas to come. Got $100 off, but that didn't even cover the sales tax for WA state. But hey, free shipping, so I can't complain too much.

    More from my local diner

    A drunk driver was running from the police yesterday, and crashed into a building across the street from this diner. One killed, the other one injured. Poetic, no?

    Brisket Price?

    Shoot, when I first started smoking, around 2010, I could pick up a brisket at the local restaurant supply store for $1.49 lb. I know things have gone up, but nearly quadruple?

    Didn't plan on making brisket today, but I did.

    You wasted a perfectly good work day. Good for you!! :emoji_laughing:
