I hate Peoplenet, where are you parked and recipes thread

No time to catch up with y'all... gotta go... and the internet signal here SUCKS..

 

Helped a pumpkin driver back in to a spot on my way back from Burger King.

Two guys in there discussing who was worse in WW2, Hitler or Stalin.

####! Leave that crap for the Petro drivers section.

 

Shoulda been there this morning Rocks. Had a marching band swarm that place.

Missed you by that much

 

My daughter was in flags and they went to a competition with the marching band to San Antonio. On the way home, they stopped at that old creepy truckstop in Ozona, TX. What was supposed to be a 1/2 hour stop to fuel and grab munchies turned into a two hour ordeal as the kids scattered all over the place.

 

zzooom ! .... .... and there she goes !!...

 

Best laugh I've had all day.

Mine too......... I think I'll let you have your tots guys. Then again, I splurged and got the family dinner at a local bison burger place. It's expensive, but it was good.

So, finally got to check the truck out... Up until this point it's been phone calls, emails, texts and one in-person visit to sign a paper. But I hadn't seen the truck in person until today.

Overall... She rides well, off-road tires need replacing. But that's on me. Discovered several issues upon a thorough inspection with two sets of eyes. Nothing major, but we got the dealer to out of pocket the repair costs for all but one item. (Cruise control, two door locks, plus a couple others.)

Lowered the giving price, then upped it in exchange for a set of running boards to be installed. (Bar-style. Not cheap plastic.)

So, waiting to hear back from the dealer once they get everything fixed and find out if they can add a set of running boards. If so, then it's a deal. If not, well my s10 still runs well.

Heh... Folks are going to earn their pay. It's in otherwise good shape, but it was somebody's work truck. I suspected they low balled the hell out of the guy who traded it in, so they are working with a gross profit of roughly 6,000$ prior to repairs and add ons.

 

When I discuss the site and my moderating duties, my girls say I'm just a big nerd.

 

TA Greencastle PA. 8 hrs at the freezer getting loaded last night kinda pushed my start time back today. Well that and some important TV watching and breakfast. I knew it would be a late arrival and opted for a paid spot and peace of mind. Detention payment more than covered it. Turned out renting a space was a good idea. I don't have to leave here till noonish tomorrow so it's all good. Getting a lil tired of driving in rain. Between the last trip coming back home and today, I'm at about 1,500 miles with the wipers on.

Lucy the dog is dreaming and sleep-barking at something. Cracks me up every time she does that. Fortunately she's not farting tonight. That's not cute at all.

I do like cream cheese and would expect it to flavor up a pound cake nicely. The comments about not liking an ingredient you really can't taste reminded me of another one. My Mom makes a chocolate cake with sour cream in it. Lots of recipes on a Google search so it's not original for sure. Best chocolate cake ever.

Speaking of bacon wrapped anything, when I was a kid, my Grandpa was a commercial butcher and we'd get a case of bacon wrapped filet mignon once in a while. Now THAT is something worthy of having a strip of bacon wrapped around it LOL.

 

remember when you looked for good marbling on steak for the best flavor
filets need the bacon to add some fat

all the vegetarians are going to rise up and get us carnivores
