Props to the Wall Street Journal for finding foods that resemble some cabinet members

Always fun to see where pH1 ends up

Classic "watching NBA playoffs in Iowa" moment

Great Mezcal cocktails on our last night in Santa Fe.

Got our retired sled dogs to the Grand Canyon today. They don't seem to care. #UglyDogs

Let's Go Wolves!

Minnesota Timberwolves will probably still win this game.

Of course the Minnesota Twins end the Mets losing streak

New @boardsofcanada.bsky.social album art is 🔥

Haven't worn a fragrance since junior high. It's been making the selection of one a little more difficult. The depth of aromas presented in these samples is pretty amazing. The formulas have gotten much more layered and complex versus the cool water and Michael Jordan cologne of my youth

True

13 minutes in and it's just been power chords and feedback. 10/10 classic SUNN O))) sound. sunn.bandcamp.com/album/sunn-o-2

greatest basketball season in Nebraska history. ends with a loss to Iowa

The sourdough Tavern Style Pizza experiment was quite successful.

Fuck ICE

Unexpected yacht rock band at the local Thrash House. Should have taken more video

A little chilly in the brewery today

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

A regular in the pub who has sat at the bar everyday I have worked in the past 14+ years, showed up wearing a fedora today. No explanation needed or questions asked. Exciting stuff

We say goodbye to actor, filmmaker and activist Rob Reiner. A dedicated storyteller with sincerity that imbued his prolific work and the causes he believed in, Reiner’s heartfelt portrayal of the human condition reminds us of the power of film and its abilities to stay with us.

New addition to the household. Seems to be adapting well.

We're #1! We're #1! Woooo!

Probably my last visit to Palmer's. Another of my favorite taverns will soon be closing its doors. Hitting it hard tonight. Will always remember the $5 dollar huge shots of Chartreuse they used to serve.

Buxton!

Without downloading any new pics, where are you mentally?

Cedar Rapids and Iowa City don’t want Des Moines to get all the attention, I guess. Don’t let anyone tell you this is normal or the way it has to be. Rivers brimming with nitrate, hundreds of thousands of consumers with water supplies on the brink, and shameful silence from our leaders.

I keep hearing comments like “I plan to ignore it for the next four years”. This Billionaire Bill shuts down democracy. Look away at your peril.

So adding tomatoes, croutons, and American cheese makes it "California" style? So exotic

First Detroit style using my new spiral mixing attachment. Don't notice much of a difference overall, but it did a great job of bringing the dough together.

Two weeks ago I ate the best fried shrimp of my life in Georgia. Tonight, Georgia born Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves start the western conference finals. Heck of a couple weeks #WolvesBack

LET’S GO WOLVES

Au Gratin Potatoes or Cheesey Potato Hot Dish? Either way, I'm pumped to be eating them for a few days

Don't think this is how the Pistons/Knicks game ended

Got the results of her biopsy and there was nothing out of the ordinary. Now she just needs her hair to grow back and everything will be normal. Such a relief

If Memphis can pull this off, we could get a Kings/Warriors elimination game. That is exactly what the NBA needs

Obligatory bottle of Grüner on pizza night. This one is tried and true. Available at a few shops around town. Sometimes even chilled

NY style pies tonight. Will take 75 grams of dough out next time so they get stretched thinner for 12 inch pizzas. Mine was in about a minute too long. Used that info to make my wife's pizza a better cook. Life comes at you quickly at 550 degrees.

Obligatory post pizza bottle of Grüner. Was worried it would be a gimmick with the Klimt art on the label. Really really nice. Salty pears up front with a bone dry finish. Will pick up another bottle if I see it around.

First go at a Sicilian style pie on this fine Sunday. Used a Detroit pan because it's what we have. Was a battle on mixing day with the 86% hydration, highest I've ever gone. Was surprisingly easy to handle today. Had enough spare dough to make a little focaccia loaf.

First grill day of the year. Felt good

I have two cousins who were under 18 that received SS benefits after their mother died from cancer. These dummkopfs don't even know how the systems they're destroying work.

Honoring #NationalBeerDay by going on the legendary @lakefrontbrewery.bsky.social tour.

Our girl Frosting had to get some bumps removed for biopsy. Doesn't seem to mind the new attire she has to wear for the next week or so while she heals up. Her sister Eleanor is definitely giving her support. Could we get some good vibes from the #UglyDogs family while we wait for the results?

California Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas (D-Salinas): "there are currently more kids with measles in Texas than there are transgender athletes in the NCAA. That's the epidemic we should all be worried about."

Tried my Detroit style dough as a same day pie vs the 3 day cold ferment I normally do. Very similar rise and taste. Now we have options depending on the time available. Dig it
