Here is how the new water system works. Once the plants perk up a tad bit I'll get in there and cover up the water system and soil with pine straw.

The girls and I tackled getting this vertical garden bed set up today. Still room for some tomatoes and strawberries I've got coming. Excited to see how these go

Morning walk and scoot with PJ ❤️

Ya'll! Check out this ceramics piece that @chezlin.bsky.social made today. The cheekies overlap from jar top to hang in front of the body. She was thinking how could she make sure the lid was aligned? So she added the tongue to the body and now it'll align perfectly every time! She's so awesome. <3

SAMA is a freakin' snake

Dearest Gentle Reader...

My friend's chicken is buff!

Also made some pork snacks out of Campo Grande's iberico pork. This was a pork belly steak I cut into 4 pieces because my grill was set up for offset cooking so not a lot of heat spread.

Made some noms today with a friend. The Weber kettles were busy! Yum!!

Made some pork snacks while we waited for the big pork and beef ribs. Iberico pork belly steaks over hot coals!

Things are happening. ❤️

lets fucking goooo!

Hockey has to be a favorite sport for dentists specializing in Prosthodontic.

Gonna make some pulled pork with a buddy tomorrow. Got some pork butt to throw on both of the Webers and see how it comes out. What's y'alls favorite kind of bun for a pulled pork sammy? I am a big Martins potato roll fan. Probably second up is brioche and third is Hawaiian roll.

Friday sips. Cheers y'all!

How the noms turned out tonight. Happy Friday y'all!

This fish looks weird, but the grill is hot so no stopping now.

Remember I had a greenhouse in a box somewhere the other day that I was ignoring because I thought I'd have to assemble it. Turned out it was a popup tent greenhouse. So, I put it together for this weekend/week.

This new Ubiquiti network and camera system is pretty awesome. I've got a lot to learn about all of it's capabilities and everything is in test places not its final place, but things are lookin' good so far. Hardest part was remembering the sequence for ATT's IP Passthrough stuff.

Little burger time. Grilled up some burgers at PJ's request. Cheers!

It has arrived!

I'm super excited for a box of Iberico Pork getting here soon. Get in my belllyyy

Noms tonight.

Got my new Ubiquiti AP and doorbell delivered and the dream machine SE comes in later this week. Then I'll need to run some ethernet into the attic for the wireless AP. Going to be replacing Arlo cameras and yearly subscription with in home system.

The girls are headed to St Anne. Krewe Dités will be made up of some of our friend group haha keep an eye out for the veggies

Must be a parade day

Finally going to the doc for my annual. I realized last year I hadn't had an annual since 2023 so I set up an appointment. I had a fever that day so then it turned into a well visit. I didn't reschedule. So today is the day. Finally.

Not me deciding to replace my home network and Arlo cameras with way over powered Ubiquiti network and cameras because my Bird Buddy keeps trying to connect to the wrong IP even though I have client steering turned on. Oh well.

Sometimes I think am I good at this OR have I just been doing it a long time and seen some shit?

Man, The Pitt is so good and so hard to watch and not watch at the same time lol

It’s gonna get squirrelly out there… NOLAREADY: NWS expects extremely high winds around 2-3 am. Please remove all personal items on parade route. Tents & chairs are especially hazardous.

Pretty solid advice tbh

I have this weird mental hang up around food. If I've had it hot.. I probably don't want it cold. Pizza, fried chicken.. pasta.. a bunch of stuff I know others enjoy cold I almost gag when I try ... brains man

I never realized how red House Finches could be. Pretty birb.

Haha, it's fun being extra for my best friend and Valentine @chezlin.bsky.social 💜❤️💗

Here is a few pics of the tank. Fighting a little bit of uglies I think because my gyre was frozen up. Got it fixed up and rotated the gyres to be vertical. Working on flow in the tank is my goal this weekend.

Ariel the Gulf blenny is starting to get its mature colors. They're so pretty.

WE WANT YOU! Well, we want a 20-30hr/week p-t employee to work in our lab… We ❤️ how people trust us w processing their film & printing their photos…which means we need help. If you’re interested in working with a well-known locally-owned business, stop by the store/give us a call and talk to JEFF!

Momma always said I was late... Taco Tuesday time!

It's Monday so why not have some Iberico pork loin, yummy green beans, and savory mashed sweet potato. Noms! Gotta start the week off right!

A friend captured this shot me of me cooking for the friend group that was mostly made up of @chezlin.bsky.social's mom group. Such a good group of humans. I think we made 35 Oklahoma onion burgers, 24 hot dogs, 2 big boxes of mac and cheese, and 2 impossible Oklahoma onion burgers.

Feeding friends is my favorite thing to do.

We outchea! Ready for things.

PJ is stoked to see her momma @chezlin.bsky.social ride in King Arthur today!

5+ pounds of sweet onions met the mandolin during prep tonight. My eyes hurt lol 😭😆

Noms

Watching movies with the girls tonight and we realized too late that we didn't have any popcorn in the pantry. So, now we've got popcorn, jenni's ice cream double cookie dough, and a bunch of different ben ad jerry's. I couldn't make up my mind so I just bought all the things that sounded yummy.

Get it gurl PJ had such a blast at Cleo last night.

We did some float loading today. Cuties. PJ isn't flickin' y'all off she just learned to snap like 2-3 days ago and is doing it constantly.
