Just a husband, father and U.S. Navy veteran in wine country trying to navigate through life...
pinned post!
June 27, 2023. The day we brought her home from the hospital after a 3 day stay. She couldn’t breathe or walk. We thought we’d lose her. They worked a miracle and got her back home. That’s our daughter hugging her while we all cried tears of joy. This has been pinned over there since that day 🐾❤️

When my good friend (and former Navy boss) Jeff retired as a full bird, he gave me some mementos. This one given to him by the team leader of SEAL Team 4 after Jeff’s ship helped them with an op. Along with Jeff’s Captain shoulder boards, they are very cherished.

Super simple (could also be called lazy) tonight: refried beans from our favorite taqueria and chicken thighs. That’s it.

The day after Bill & I had previously worked together, his 16 year old daughter was killed in a car accident. Bill and his wife were notified at 2 AM by police at their door. I saw posts tagging his wife the next day, then I read the local news, & then I knew. Oh god, no. 💔

3 years ago today when we strolled into Costco. No fake service dog vest, just the harness leash. Not a single employee objected. All the folks behind the desk at Member Services came out to pet her. We walked all around the warehouse 😂

Cleaning out the fridge and forgot that I bought these. They were still in good condition, so into a pot with butter, S&P and Lawry’s Hot Garlic Parmesan seasoning. Tasty.

Reflecting tonight. This was a few years ago while visiting PH (where her great grandfather survived on 12/7/41). This pic got me thinking about what future awaits her with this administration. She’s now a freshman in college. It’s pretty fuckin scary tbh. Pretty fuckin scary.

Watching the season finale. This would actually be a phenomenal series if they removed Billy Bob’s wife & daughter from the cast & storyline. Reference that he has an ex & daughter but never show them. I’d be fine with that. Till then it’s just a good series.

I watched Free Solo last night. I am definitely not a heights person. Several times during the doc I found myself with death grips on the arms of my chair as if I was the one holding onto that rock. Incredible what he did.

Just read a thread on FB about someone looking for fresh dungeness. One commenter said the local season isn’t open yet but boats are bringing it down from OR & WA. She said it’s not the same.. It’s from the same fucking Pacific Ocean. Yes, it’s the fucking same 🙄

Sunrise & sunset in the middle of nowhere on a Navy ship is magical. I wasn’t a huge fan of the 2-7 AM navigation watch, except for this moment right here. Worth the lack of sleep.

From my friend Tim. He’s an Academy grad and retired full bird. I met him at my old LT Jeff’s retirement. Ironically I met Tim for the first time at Navy Yard where the shooting took place. He and Jeff were still active duty & working together.

Our daughter and her boyfriend at our dinner last night. He’s a good kid. Smart, treats her right. About all a dad can ask. He also knows what her uncle did for 28 years, so there’s zero chance of him messing this up 😉

We asked our Coastie neighbors if they could pop in and let Sava out while we’re taking Jackie back to school. To them that meant popping in 4 times, two long walks, playing with her, watching tv with her, etc. I’ll say it again: they are amazing people⚓️❤️

I’ve made a lot of different soups over the years. But this one still stands out as my favorite. I’ll be making more this week: Leftover shredded turkey, chorizo, crimini shrooms, baby kale, slivered garlic and white beans. Should pair well with some warm sourdough

Navy brother turned winemaker is here for a visit. He has two labels based out of Paso. On this label the ship we served together on is on the right, his first ship on the left. I introduced him to wine when we were Navy roommates. Now he’s a winemaker with two labels of his own ⚓️❤️

I never use the term “the greatest” or “the best” when it comes to food. I’ll simply say this is the greatest ice cream I’ve ever had. Pilar made a special batch for me. This is the last pint. I’m savoring it.

Turkey, potato, crispy bacon & prosciutto, one diced jalapeno, chicken stock, paprika, cumin and S&P. I made a roux, so it’s more of a NE clam chowder consistency and less like a run of the mill soup. Incredible flavor!

My daughter made me laugh. She spent last night with her best friend & her family, plus another family out at their place in Bodega Bay. She said the dads roasted a whole NY, but couldn’t figure out how to make the gravy. She told them “Do you want me to call my dad to tell you how??” 😂😂😂

While regular Pam works fairly well, this stuff is like magic. I roasted some unseasoned chx thighs for Sava last week. My wife had this out for her baking, so I figured why not. Took the cooked thighs out of the pan, drained the liquid and rinsed with hot water. Nothing stuck.
