My thoughts released; a mind set free |
|
These pages contain my thoughts, from meandering ideas and persuasions to deep cerebrations and serious mentations. Why, for what purpose? To release my mind and set creativity free. Somewhere inside the constraints of my mind dwells a writer, a poet, an artist who paints with words. In here, I release those constraints and set the artist free. Perhaps, lost somewhere in the depths of thought, is a story or a poem, waiting to be written. |
| The "Sumkinder Sausage" turned out great. I cooked up a few patties for my wife and me for lunch, and she agrees that Sumkinder Sausage is a hit. Like normal for me, I did not write down the recipe. Luckily, I had followed one of my older recipes and added a few more spices. After I finished, I put all the spices back into the cupboard and was able to retrieve them to find the additions. This batch will be made into patties sometime after I finish writing this, but next time I want to put some into casings and smoke them. Currently, it's too damned cold to do much of anything outside, but after it warms up near thawing, I can set up my smoking tent and portable pellet smoker again. Speaking of warming up, I sometimes wonder if those people at the National Weather Service ever have their pants catch fire. You know, "Liar, liar, pants on fire..." Once again, they duped us folks by telling us the temperatures were going to be less cold. Actually, they said warmer, but until it climbs above freezing, I feel it's an oxymoron to say it's getting warmer. I even checked the weather this morning before posting that our cold wave was ending tomorrow. A few hours later, and it's all changed, or as The Dude said, "New things have come to light." It's now looking like we have another week of sub-zero temperatures heading our way. We do get a break tomorrow with it reaching 10oF during the day, but it's also forecast to be windy, creating a sub-zero wind chill factor. It's the same today, we finally broke even with the ambient temperature (it's 0oF, but the wind picked up, making it feel like it's still below zero. One more week, then it's supposed to warm up or become less cold; your choice of terms. Of course, that could all change by later this evening. You can't believe the forecast or the people who predict the weather. I hope their pants do catch fire. |
