We all seem to eat vicariously around here, don't we? Yum this and OM NOM that. It's great fun to see what others are fixing. Your chicken sounds good, and I just brought home a frozen hen from a friend who raises them. Getting the yen for a roasted chicken, especially now!

We bought some black truffle infused sea salt. It adds an almost malty flavor and is fabulous on chicken and grilled veggies.

Now we search out such shops and buy more and it is all Nissa's fault!

We now have several of each category, and make almost every meal a new culinary experience with the new and wonderous flavors.

Anyway, here is Grant in his favorite pose.

To his credit though, we have never known him to just pick up and walk off the job. Surprising too, because he works for rock-bottom wages. Maybe it's the perks of travel that keep him around. He sits near a window and strikes an air of superiority when we are in a gravel parking lot.
That's plain rock hard!

Ah, dear sister mutant, I resemble that remark and send you a virtual high five. Keep upholding a great tradition of proudly stirring the pot. (Cooking type, not the medicinal herb -- well ok, most of the time, anyway)

Now that's funny.... the only way they can take over is for mutants to sit silent - what are the odds of that?

Hey there. My eye exam is in about 5 minutes. Any tips? I looked online for cliffs notes but couldn't them.

Memorize the chart before he comes in to examine you.

Sue, one of the reasons sea salt is touted for health is that many people are drinking purified, bottled waters which have few minerals left in them and sea salts provide a rich diversity of minerals as well as algae in some brands. I do believe what they are touting in the a fore mentioned posts was different flavored ( herb) sea salts.

Then scribble the answers on the palm of your hand. Those charts are sneaky. They put in Q and O and E and F in every line to throw you off.

Thank you! It is elegant in its simplicity, without the ostentatious look of stainless steel or fancy temperature dials. I have engineering drawings done on AutoCAD for anyone who wants the design.

A friend of mine designed a backyard drink holder that uses a "plumbers helper". Bubba said everyone is after him for one of those.

Healthy? Cool!!!
I am simply nuts about the seasalts that do some serious enhancement of the flavor of meats, salads, etc. If it is good for me, I will be immortal within a few months!
