  1. Med style branzino, hatch chile biscuits and mixed veggies went hard!
  2. Good shit! I’m very much looking forward to the H Mart opening up on Burnet. In other news, tonight was all about the Cornish hen:
  3. Had leftover brisket… you know the deal!
  4. Good read on all that: https://www.belizetourismboard.org/programs-events/retirement-program/#1638292515937-d0a94f63-ac5a Seems like a great opportunity if you can swing it!
  5. When the name drops, please share, as I’ll certainly be checking that out once it opens…
  6. Saw this in the wild for the first time today… only thing on the shelf without a price, so I didn’t bother asking. Did snag an Elmer though, so not a bad day…
  7. How many late hits out of bounds can a team absorb?!
  8. Yeah, the one time we tried to use Centurian at DIA this year was one of the worst reported delays I’d heard of… Over an hour just to get on the waiting list after “registering” through the app? Fuck that noise…
  9. Any word on 2022 Bombaucher and Shenks? Have access to both, but haven’t tried either.
  10. Any reason NOT to pull the trigger on the AAdvantage Executive World Elite Mastercard right now? Currently about to get fucked on Companion Pass with my SW card, so looking to shift that to something new that gets me lounge access. Right now my primary spend is divided between my SW Visa and Amex Platinum. The latter has me covered at the Delta lounge, and the wife has a Sapphire that yields Chase access, so only missing AA at AUS. Willing to wait if anyone has an inkling that 70k point offer gets better in the spring, but otherwise ready now…
  11. Stayed at a VRBO so cooking implements were at a premium, but thankfully you can do a leg of lamb on just about anything…
  12. Thank the lord for CA grocery stores… Merry Christmas to all you degenerates!
  13. I don’t spend enough anymore/any particular place for that kind of system to make sense for me. You get a chance for this just by showing up and drinking free booze, so who am I to complain.
  14. You could only pull one bottle in the big drawing, so all other tickets were void. Lotta those folks had 16-20 tickets, so like I said odds still pretty good. They did a show of hands at the end and about 50% of those in attendance got an allocated bottle. I’m just saying that was the average as I spoke to several folks like myself who only had 2-3 tickets.
  15. SUPER fun one today… First, some background: we’re in the middle of multiple yard projects right now, so the entire backyard is a mess. All of our furniture is under tarps, which did OK against the rain but not against the yard crew this week. Everything looks like this: Despite insisting multiple times that it would not be prudent to clean up the back yard for the party we’re hosting tomorrow, the wife insisted that because it was a nice day, it was now a requirement. The yard is a straight up mud pit at the moment, and if anyone steps foot back there the house will be a disaster. After arguing all day and stalling on cleaning our patio furniture (which must not be touched with the power washer [emoji50]‍[emoji100]) I negotiated down to 2 pieces of furniture and cleaning off the deck. It took 2.5 hours and I’ll be shocked if anyone steps foot outside tomorrow.
  16. So, popped out to the Shaker raffle today for the first time. Don’t get nearly the tickets I anticipated going in as the last two weeks were crazy, but wanted to see what it was all about. 3800 or so tickets for ~300 folks in attendance, so decent odds given the average ticket/per was probably around 5. Never had my name called, but the dude next to me wasn’t interested by the time his was so I snagged this peat bomb: May never crack it, but at least I snagged this winner at the tastings: 80% of the folks who walked with unicorns had already won a bottle in the first round, so clearly the only way to play is to max tickets and bring friends who do the same.
  17. Jesus, man… what happened to Cole?! Guy looks terrible…
  18. So, I went to Little Deli for lunch yesterday and got the Italian, as so many here and on Reddit have sung its praises. TBH I just don’t get it… sure, it was good, but to me it doesn’t hold a candle to Home Slice. It all comes down to the bread, and if that isn’t fresh with a little crunch to it, you’re falling short.
  19. Looks mighty sharp! The bed in my K-20 also needs some love after 2 years in the rain, so I figure I’ll sand it down and do something similar.
  20. That glencairn is [emoji91]
  21. This is actually a really good read on the Dowling upthread… fascinating story and some smart folks involved, even if the price point is a tough sell. I may snag one if I see it again just for funzies… https://whiskeyraiders.com/bourbon/mary-dowling-whiskey-co/
