White bean and ham soup with a red velvet cake with cream cheese icing chaser. Now deciding on whether to have sipping rum or a Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout. Tough life.

Talk to Hoorta and he'll give you a decent wine list to go with all that. Talk to war and he'll furnish the whine free.

Works for me.

Yeah, Huey will help him with that!

Sous vide immersion stick!? Sounds more like a great dildo to me. Did Oprah recommend it or Jenna Jamison?

After reviewing all these recipes and cooking tips I feel like I have eavesdropped on a women's bridge party (not that there is anything wrong with that). This is what the Browns have reduced their fan base to. Oprah anyone?

The recipe or the licking?

I certainly won't. I was liking and licking Gip's Girls. Do I qualify for the Trumpeters now?

Cook them the same way you do your asparagus and you will give up the Devil's Dicks.

Only if you wash it down with Ghoolie's Zaya maybe.

Asparagus, greatest gag food known to man, is even gaggy-er out of the can. We need the tavern throw up icon here.

Add in Gosling's Black Seal Bermuda Black Rum and there you have it. Or El Dorado 12 y.o. Demerara rum from Guyana. Yummmmmy!

Even better with Monica Lewinski according to El Presidente.

My wife thinks I'm addicted because since I retired I like to have one drink a day about 2-3 days a week (MD's recommend 1 a day). I tell her that is not an addiction, it's called being a Connoisseur of heavenly delights. I also collect one or two really nice gold coins a year along with about 4 or 5 nice silver ones as well. And racquetball is every day except Sunday (even God takes a break from it that day). Now that's an addiction!

That one is great as a mixer for Cuba Libre or eggnog with nutmeg this time of year. But for a sipper got to go with Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva. I guarantee you will not be disappointed. Another a little less expensive one I really like with eggnog/nutmeg is a Gosling's Black Seal Bermuda Black Rum. http://www.goslingsrum.com/our-products/black-seal-rum/

I got an early start with a 12 year old Guyana rum called El Dorado mixed in with a little diet Coke Zero on chipped ice. If the Spanish had only known that El Dorado really does exist, they never would have allowed El Libertador Bolivar to win a revolution. Good stuff Nero.

And I used to think you could only find crackers in the south. MAGA.

It's the Ka-Bar in your mouth to test the pink in the steaks that prolly does it.

You just jinxed hell out of him Tour-turned into a pumpkin at midnight.

Wonderful Wino!

Got me a mix it yourself Chicken Caesar Salad and a couple shots of fine Venezuelan sipping rum unencumbered by ice or coke. Yum!

Bears will eat any damn thing they find. I was at an outdoor lecture on black bears in RMNP outside Estes Park with my grandkids. The speaker said when they are even 20 miles downwind they can pick up on a carcass and backtrack the smell to the source like buzzards do. This article says their sense of smell is something like 7 times better than a bloodhound. That is just unreal and explains why you never keep or cook food near your sleeping area in bear country. Biggest black bear I ever saw was crossing the road to the far west side of Estes Park on his way to the city dump. https://sectionhiker.com/bears_sense_of_smell/ Yeah during the film I was thinking of converting to Canadian so I could go hoist the flag. At this age it's just a rich fantasy life.

Cal-In the first video I laughed when the first thing she did was walk away from her backpack full of food sitting on the ground. Rule #1 is carry a rope to hoist it into a tree if you're leaving it while scouting. She already screwed up but I'll finish watching anyway because it looks interesting. And if she's going to use a knife as her only defense along with bear spray then she better rig it up on a sturdy limb of some kind like spear to at least have a shot at poking an eye or two out from at least a short distance if the bear spray does nothing. LOL! Edit #1: 20 min. in and this girl is a novice. Leaves her food out again while she uses the bear bag to get river sand. And then she hangs it in an unsound tree that she could have checked out before hanging it up. But at least she likes to bathe in the river a lot for entertainment value. Too bad they cover her with the Canadian flag icon though. Edit #2: Not a Cajun dat fo sur. Suck dem heads o da crawfishes girl! Edit#3: Nice little speckled trout she got. Best eating ones I ever caught were Native Cutthroat trout up the Poudre River in Redfeather Lakes area WNW of Ft. Collins. Nothing like fresh trout cooked on a spit over an open fire. I caught 'em in early spring just after the ice broke and had my limit in about 15 min. Ate a bunch and took a bunch home at the end of my trip. Those were the days! PS-if you take a stringer with you you can keep them alive for quite a while in the water and eat them fresh whenever you get hungry. Or clean them and put them on ice in your beer cooler. LOL! Edit#4-thanks for the video cal. Overall she did fine with a few novice mistakes early in. I'll watch the others as I have time. PS-I laughed at myself as I watched her use rocks to bake her bread close to the fire. I got in a heap of trouble with the old man as a kid when I swore up and down that Indians ate rocks because I read it in Boys Life magazine. When we got home from the 15 minute argument he made me find the article and there was the picture of the Indians with rocks in their pot boiling away. What I had failed to do was read that they had heated the rocks in the fire and then thrown them in the pot of water so it reaches a quick boil. That earned me a knot on my head for not reading it. So the lesson never forgotten is that if you have a fire going keep a stack of some clean rocks in it and throw them in a container of water whenever you need it if you want hot water really fast. And read instructions carefully or you may get a knot on the head.!

One of those great moments. Thanks Tom! The Great Ones always leave too soon. RIP!

Adios
