  1. Anyone have experience going from an updraft unit located in an interior closet to a unit entirely in the attic? Considering doing this when ours shits the bed.
  2. Definitely one of the bigger rat snakes I've ever seen.
  3. Saw this dude on my run yesterday.
  4. Is this you telling me to stay in cash, or buy all the FOJC Futures I can afford?
  5. I love live oak, but it makes me shake my head a bit when they charge $12 per sizer of Pils at the brewery and it is 7.99 at central market. I get why they do it, but damn. Alcohol is such a weird business
  6. Ya that’s my normal rotation. Didn’t know if nomadic or southern heights were worth adding in
  7. along those lines: recommend me a new"er" brewery to try to swing by this weekend. I'm southwest and have kids, so closeness counts.
  8. palm oil is usually frowned upon from an environmental perspective, no?
  9. Negative. Took them a while to call me with results.
  10. @Newdoc my test is at 415, so we'll see if its the antibody or the swab
  11. I know the damn Amber Alerts are non stop.
  12. I'm actually running almost every day and losing weight even with significantly increased drinking. Been skipping breakfast and sometimes lunch, so that coupled with the stress of both of us working from home with 2 kids and not sleeping much... I'm trying to keep the volume down otherwise I'm pretty sure I'd develop an overuse injury.
  13. Thanks for this, I just had my video consult and got approved to schedule the test, just waiting on the phone call now to do so. FWIW I had contact with someone who later tested positive clinically, and I mentioned I wanted to donate plasma if I had antibodies. Speaking of: here's the link for Austin if you want to do so. https://weareblood.org/convalescent-plasma/
  14. They're sold out. I just put in an order for St. Elmo and got a text 3 minutes later that it's ready for pickup. Hope this beer to go model sticks around permanently.

    Thanks, will give that a shot. Everyone seems to recommend preheating the vessel. I did watch this vid last night and gave a few of his tips a try. We'll see how it turns out
  16. I threw out a few feelers last night. Ill start in earnest later this week.
  17. I mean, the softness of a merkin depends on if it's been properly cared for.
  18. I got the news today that our factory is going half time in May unless orders improve, which means all other staff (sales included) will be doing the same. So while I still have a job, I'm about to have half the base. Not great news, but not the worst either in the situation we're all in.

    I always have issue with the dough sticking to the shaping vessel before the transfer to the dutch oven. I've tried flouring a kitchen towel, coating the bowl, coating the shaped dough itself...about the best success I've had is parchment paper in the bowl, then flour, then the dough, and lifting the whole thing out and straight into the dutch oven.
  20. Here I was thinking this was the actual situation for a sternly worded note, but the day isn't over yet Rusty.
