  1. Didn't make it tonight ‐ maybe later this week. Some recipe just popped up in one of my feeds. Just Google Creamy Spicy Jalapeno Shrimp Soup.
  2. Central Market is good and most Mi Tienda products are as good as the name brands (Mi Tienda is Spanish for My Tienda).

    I think 2022 was an outlier of sorts for sure, although he should be capable of better numbers than he had in 2023 and 2024. Without the right complementary players, strong wingers and a good striker, Driussi was limited. Defenses often double teamed Driussi because the remaining players could not consistently mount a dangerous attack without his contribution. I would love to see Driussi play a season with Bukari and Vazquez, but the rumors suggest that he is leaving. Any one player is replaceable, if that's what the front office wants to do. A lessor replacement for Driussi will be problematic in my opinion since so much of the offense relies upon playmaking from that position.

    Now we get to wait and see if the Driussi out reports are also true.
  5. Thinking about doing this tonight or sometime this week - Creamy Spicy Jalapeno Shrimp Soup.
  6. Looks good and handy. What are you going to put back there? It would be a good solution for all of the shit I have stuffed up under my seat - 4-way, tool bag, extra belts, jumper cables. Unfortunately, I don't have a folding bench seat in the '69 and no plans to relocate the gas tank.
  7. I, for one, am disappointed with the purported definition of road head lane.
  8. The times that I've been, there hasn't been an overly long line at Reese.
  9. Getting ready for some cold weather. 5 lbs of chuck, an onion, some garlic, some spices, with guajillos and anchos. With an hour or so for prep and 3-4 hours of simmering, had to make Tuesday's dinner this afternoon.
  10. Burnt Bean is outstanding. Reese Bros in San Antonio would be great as well. I don't remember if they have inside seating, though ‐ so that would be a consideration depending on the weather.
  11. @mooseoutfront for Alaska pioneer living.
  12. Agreed. Essentially a split season.
  13. wúnderbar
  14. Home of the Big Mick - fuck sesame seeds.
  15. I think some of the issue has to do with the definition of a drink: a 12-ounce can of regular beer at 5% alcohol by volume; a 5-ounce glass of wine at 12% alcohol by volume; a 1.5-ounce shot glass of distilled spirits at 40% alcohol by volume. Pint of beer = more than a drink Beer at greater than 5% abv = more than a drink Wine in a water goblet (Mrs. Callo) = more than a drink Higher proof bourbon = more than a drink
  16. I liked season 2 - watching the front man imbed and compete in the games, the dynamics of the player relationships (mom & son, crypto guy and rapper), soldier 011, etc.
  17. Going out on a limb here, but I'm not entirely sure that people are honest when questioned about how much alcohol they consume.
  18. I don't think the refs like ND. Can't really blame them, but they missed two real penalties during that drive.
  19. Seems like I'd heard half of the jokes before. Maybe he used them in his last SNL monologue.
  20. It's not a full push up unless your beard and your hair touch the ground.
  21. Your avatar makes my eye twitch.
  22. "My wife told me I couldn't yell at the TV at the house, so I came here to yell at the TV at the bar,"
  23. Stared this morning by rinsing and sorting black-eyed peas - eventually realizing that I was rinsing pinto beans. Fuck. Off to HEB for some actual black-eyed peas. Peas and cornbread while watching the game. Sous vide pork chops, bacon grease sautéed cabbage, and more black-eyed peas for dinner.
  24. After several years with everyone on my list surviving, I hit with three in 2024 for a total of 121 points (Richard Lewis, Shannen Doherty, and Jonnie Irwin). My picks came in a couple days late, though.
  25. My oldest, who graduates UT in May, watched the game at a bar in Phoenix. She said she changed the fight song to "goodbye to ASU" which was met with booing all around. HOOK'EM!
