Firey, Sleeping Like A Baby, Remember That Time and Baking Like A Son Of A Bitch

I am trying to keep busy while off work. I have now set my sights at becoming a Master at BBQ. Yesterday at 4:15 I built a fire with no lighter fluid and only 4 pieces of rolled up paper. I cooked sausage, turkey, chicken, corn, potatoes and squash. It was a nice night and a little windy out and so I went outside about 10:30 and opened the grill. The fire was still going and I sat out there with it until about 1:30 in the a.m. It was like my own little fireplace. Between recovering, not smoking and everything else, I feel like I have lost time so the 3 hours I sat outside felt like nothing to me. I have deep thoughts lately. By the way, the picture on this blog is of my Weber Simpson's Grill Joe and Candace got me for my 30th birthday, otherwise known as Halloween-Christmas. Still works like a charm. I would like to have another Halloween Christmas party soon.

After I went in the house, I slept like a baby. I mean the best sleep I have had in years. I guess it helped Key Food had Deli Cat and Isis and Elwood finally had some food they like. They too slept like kittens. Probably exhausted for being so unbelievably malevolent towards me for the past 2 days.

I love playing Remember That Time, especially with Fanky. When outside last night I was remembering when I affectionately referred to him being a vegetarian as his 'Bean Burrito Phase'. During this phase, I decided to move and he was helping me. We went and saw Mamaw and she was making hamburgers. She makes the best damn hamburgers ever - crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside and makes them in a cast iron skillet. They taste like magic. Anyway, Fanky came in and Mamaw fed him not just one, but 2 hamburgers of which he devoured and then he was pissed at me for putting him in the path of Mamaw's Magic Meat. Happy Birthday Fanky Merly Maloon! You may be old, but you will always be younger than me.

I made Dark Chocolate Almond Coconut Bars last night. They were incredible. I want my own bakery in a small town.
