Highly depends on which topic we’re discussing here!

When my wife and I started dating and at our first movie, the lights dim and the previews start. She just kept on talking at a normal level. I was giving all the clues that it was time to shutup. I finally shushed her and it may have been the closest I’ve ever been to death.

This lady just came knocking on our door randomly to buy seasonings bc they ran out of what they bought on Halloween! That made me smile. 😀

In the NFL you should never, ever get a penalty for lining up in the neutral zone. The dumbest of all penalties.

Tree is up!

Decided to experiment and put a Caribbean / west African twist on it. Plan is to cook at 275 for at least 3 hours covered then broil for 15 mins-ish. And if you can get these frozen chilies at your grocery store you’ll love em. They have a green one that makes for great chicken enchiladas.

Sticking with the NOLA theme from the other side…

An oldie (clean version) video in Ultra Low Def, but when this came out it was on repeat. Still in the playlist today.

I don’t say it here as often as I think it. #GMG

Paper plate for Sexy Saturday. Keep-it-simple burger night.

Never caramelized a red onion but that’s all we have so maybe it’ll work out for burger night. TBD…

Today we got a tech and kicked out of the game for yelling at a ref to “Call a damn foul” in the non school league. Tough ride home for someone today. These 13 yo hormones are a lot.

No one is mentioning the content on the tv…

Woke up and was trying to go back to sleep. Then I hear this scratching noise coming from the ceiling. Now I have a chore on my list today I did not want at all.

I will not be cooking food this Thanksgiving and it feels weird, but also such a relief. The kids don’t care about food anyway so we’re making little snacks to just nibble on all day. Xmas however…

X has changed their policy and now you can see where the accounts are based. Here’s an “influencer from Texas”

Idk what to call it but it’s delicious!

Some of the things y'all send in just blow my mind. Traces of Texas reader Cal Nettles sent in this unique item. It's the letter General Motors sent to Cal's uncle Joe when Joe wanted to buy a car, using two mules as collateral. As you can read, General Motors agreed. How cool is this?

Friday and WTDS? Weekend begins now. 🥃

How my bank account looks at me buying the dip. And the other dip. Then the other one.

Billions of neutrinos pass through your thumbnail every second.

It may be marginal but at least it has the beneficial curve.

Got a warning from the ref for saying “get that shit outta here”. 😆

Great W for the first ever game playing for a school. Starting Center for 7th grade. One of his best games.

I remember one of y’all talking about Hexclad pans or cookware a while back. Who was that and how’s it holding up? Black Friday is coming up.

Food people, need some guidance. Wife brought home some raw brisket tips that are fairly marbled. Idk what to do with them. So far I’m thinking brine for 2 days, season and let sit for a day on a rack, then braise similar to short ribs. Thoughts? Ideas? Other things?

Also,”Turd” Ferguson catches a lot.

The number of time I hear “T Boone” when Pickens catches a ball is way too high! (In the household)

Country Grammar is the correct answer. It was a game changer by itself. One of the few times I’ve said “I’ve never heard anything else like this.”

What perfect album came out when you turned 16?

Today we had lunch on the other side of the planet at Cubana Grille in McKinney to hang with BIL. We went bc it was advertised on Insta and someone is a sucker for that type of ad. A bit understaffed but some good, different flavors. Not pictured is the best dish of curry goat.

I shouldn’t love these as much as I do. But I do.

What they said about me in high school.

Love getting feedback! 🙂

41-9-6 So just another night? 😭

Sometimes Sundays are for a victory lap and relaxing. Good morning to ya. One of my favorite Nipsey songs.

Waiting on the rest is the hardest part….

The side project of smoking the garlic & herb Boursin makes for a great appetizer.

Slowly getting there. Threw some Boursin cheese on there too just bc.

Today I’m experimenting with smoking a pork butt with nothing but Cajun butter injection, and Soul on the outside. Will report back.

That Fire 🔥 leveled up my store bought queso from meh, to I dipped WAY too many frozen air fried taquitos and now questioning why have dinner at all.

I’m torn. I don’t like the super colorful Luka’s so I’ve narrowed it down to these 2. I’m not a shoe guy but want some basketball shoes since I’ll be coaching the 7th graders this year. Which one should I get?

I did an at-home sleep test last night. So I slept on the couch recliner to stay on my back since I typically barrel roll like a QT hot dog through the night and that would disconnect the monitors. If you think I’m gonna be up past 8pm tonight I have bad news.

Making a good gravy is a lost art.
