Today a coworker asked if I could help him for a bit as he had to go pickup some stuff he won at an auction. Turned out it was a warehouse full of old junk (shuttered restaurant equipment and small wares, chairs and old booths, why am I here?) and the pallet I audible made fun of when we arrived just so happened to have his name on it.
It looked like this.
I looked like this
The back of the car looked like this
Plus we had a pull behind trailer with 2 crusty ass bookshelves and a filing cabinet.
It ain’t all horses and pizza in my world.

Random photos from this last week.
I made gluten free Smoked Turkey Meatballs (using almond flour)And I watched the World Pool Masters tournament (with Taco watching birds)
On a rainy Sunday I smoked curry chicken wings. Roasted broccoli with broccoli sprouts and homemade hummus.
We ate the wings with cilantro chutney and coconut Labneh.
Yeah, we ate off the sheet pan like savages.
Also made quick pickles and jarred some preserves lemons.
Always something going on in our kitchen.

Random fact that only a lawyer can tell you: Himalayan salt does not actually come from the Himalaya. It comes from a salt range quite far away from the mountains itself. The federal german court has ruled that the term 'Himalayan salt' is actually misleading and therefore prohibited under german law. There is salt which actually comes from the Himalaya, but that is not the pink stuff everyone refers to.
I'm sure the stuff you prepared with it was delicious, though! -
@tody San Francisco salt company is a supplier we rep here in the U.S. I’ll have to share that fact with the supplier salesman when I talk to him next. LIARS!!!

I made stuffed zucchini last night. I start by halving and hallowing the zucchini into canoes. Then I par roast them for 15 minutes at 425.
I toast the breadcrumbs in olive oil and chopped garlic until they start to brown.
The filling is mushrooms sautéed with garlic, herbs and spices and then I add tomato sauce and a splash of red wine and cook it down almost dry. A little squeeze of lemon juice boosts up the flavor.
Fill the zucchini and top with the bread crumbs and bake 20 minutes at 375
And since we are random I grilled some uncured andouille on the side.

I forgot to mention the best part is all the breadcrumb tidbits on the sheet pan. You could charge $20 to fold the parchment and let someone take it like a beer bong.

My summers are mostly composed of fishing, horses and as seen here, 2 nights per week playing softball.
Fun fact (not sure how well this brand and its polarizing founder are outside the U.S.), we play with the My Pillow team. The original tiny factory was 200 yards from my house and is now been demolished and is an old folks home.
Mike Lindell often rides on the My Pillow float through our tiny town during the fall parade tossing pillows out like candy.

I guess the only reason he is known over here is because he's so polarizing...
Always wondered how comfortable that stuff is, and how durable. I thrashed many pillows filled with feathers, as I use oil based pomade, and that stuff will grease down any feather. But since I switched to sheep's wool (Texel based of course) all is well. -
@tody I can't speak to the comfort to sleep on. the ones he tosses out on at the parade are mini versions like you would get on a first class flight so I've never actually slept on one.
Yeah, his mouth sure gets him in trouble. I've never actually asked his son (who plays on the My Pillow team) his opinion on his dad's antics.

@jordanscollected dude! Are you just eating, like, the most amazing food every meal? Impressed. You obviously love to cook. I’m usually so wiped out after work, spending all that time in the kitchen kills me. We eat a lot of burritos around our house. Haha. Quick, simple, and I’ve got my flavor profile dialed to my liking.

@Mizmazzle Cooking and creating in the kitchen comes so easy to me after all these years that it's just second nature. I rarely use recipes, and that causes issues when someone wants to recreate something they loved at our house at home.
Our goal is to eat healthy food, organic and local as much as possible (summer farmers markets makes that much easier), and make it delicious of course. We aren't afraid of using copious amounts of healthy fat (clean label animal fats, avocado oil, coconut oil), salt to taste and use natural sweeteners (maple syrup, raw honey, maple sugar) instead of processed refined sugars when possible.
When I worked in the kitchen at an actual restaurant it had its benefits and it problems. I ate 2 meals a day at work (you basically have prepared foods around all the time get your little fingers in), but when I got home I was tired of cooking and didn't spend as much time creating at home (other factors like living situation weighed into that too). Now that I'm not a slave to prep and banquets, weddings, and ticket machines i have much more desire to cook at home.
My wife also went to culinary school and worked as a pastry chef for many years, so she is no slouch in the kitchen and does most of our baking (see my above note that I don't use recipes at home and see why baking is a challenge for me).
