Having some missionaries for dinner.

What’s the best way to prepare them? Are they still young enough to be tender, or do you have to braise them?

Fava beans and a nice Chianti?

No thanks, not a fan of fava beans.

Caturday salutations, GN!

Hope Sven, Mrs. Sven and -- most importantly BiL -- are all okay (or better) this morning.

Hi, dv8 (and Harper!!1!); glad Plaguie was able to join you for part of the Big Route.

Having some missionaries for dinner.

Meaning no offense to friends, but that sounds like part of an old vaudeville schtick about cannibals. (Sorry…that’s just how my diseased mind works more often than not.)

I’ve been searching for the Fountain of Bacon for my entire life.

Happy Caturday, Gerbil Nation! Now with moar bear!
Good morning, dv8 (and Harper!), and Fatwa!

Continued prayers for Sven, Mrs. Sven, and BiL.

dv8 -- glad Harper was able to join you for part of the Big Route. Hope you get your schedule worked out.

Teh Older is going to make a braciola for dinner tomorrow night. The base will be flank steak. As a kid, flank steak was a cheap cut of beef. Now it’s highly desired and highly expensive. SMH.

My city is having an e-waste and household hazardous waste pickup event, so I’m off to city hall to unload some stuff. BBIAB

I’m going to try to flip my schedule today. It’ll be a bit of a stretch, but I should be okay.

E-waste pickup event?

Is that code for everyone in the city is going to pelt the capital with all that garbage?

I like your idea, dv8!
Unfortunately, no. E-waste is electronic waste. The heavy metals are scavenged so they don’t pollute the groundwater when the remainder is buried in a landfill.

I like my idea better too.

Back home. For a change, everything worked out as planned yesterday. BiL is on blood thinners for the next six months and then reevaluated, off work for the next two weeks, sees his doctor next week. Seemed in decent enough spirits.

Long day yesterday. The flight out of Burbank went off without a hitch but about 600 miles driven all told with me doing 2/3 and Mrs Sven the last 1/3. We ain’t as young as we used to be and am feeling it a bit this morning.

Back to Burbank now to pick up our car and drop off the rental.

Thanks for the prayers and well wishes.

Poof.
