I need to know how bacpacker's supper came out tonight!!??!!

 

[Bacpacker]

We had Tortilini and smoked sausage. Nothing fancy, but it filled the hollow spot

You may end up cooking permanently!!

Do you have a crock pot and a pot roast? That's night one then next night enchiladas, then the next night hash. You got this!

 

[Bacpacker]

We do. One we like from it is a pork tenderloin, first night with veggies, next night pulled pork. We'll survive, just not eat great tasting stuff as regular. LOL
With the maters producing so well I do see a lot of tomato sandwiches in our future. One of my favorites anyway.
Thanks for the ideas ladies.

We do the same with tri-tip. We BBQ it on night #1. Make a beef stir fry on night # 2, then any left overs will go into a sandwich for lunch for a few days, or my favorite, a garden salad with small chunks of tri-tip in it.

I need some rubber boots so I don't have to keep taking my warm fuzzy socks off to put thongs ( flip flops in American) on to go outside.
Going from Uggs and warm zuzzy socks inside to thongs/ flip flops isn't nice and it's PITA having to contstantly change footware to go inside or out.

Could I get the name and link for it?

Thanks!

Is it Doomsday Preppers? What's new

Almost 5 years ago, several of us left another forum to join this one. It is not a sister to this one, but one that many of us are familiar with.

You need some SERIOUSLY thick skin to swim in those waters.
If the relative few drunks, trolls and jackasses on this forum upset them then the infestation they have happening over there will have them in a fetal position in a corner.

I'd prob be banned in a heart beat over there because my old school Italian temperament wouldn't put up with their crap.
I manage to keep a lid on it here.
Once they start running their mouths and out themselves they get put on ignore.
JUst because I can and will go to war doesn't mean I'm going to.
I have enough on my plate without dealing with pinheads.

Pork tenderloin first night is usually with the raspberry chipotle sauce...then pork chop suey the second night...usually no leftovers, but I will make a sandwich with it.

When I was a kid, my mother rarely bought lunch meat. Our lunch meat was leftover meat from our dinners. I used to complain about her roast beef sandwiches and such! I wanted meat like the other kids got. Now, I love pulling out some leftover meat and making a sandwich.

Isn't that funny. Who was it (my Pa?) used to trade homemade bread for wonder bread. Seems like that was a normal trade for quite a few folks. Hindsight!

It was for firearms...

I believe that @kd4ulw mentioned it.

 

[LadyLocust]

No real place for this so I’ll just pop it here. Just a 2-3min video. Moving ~

Sad but true.

I am a member there, but so are a few others. I know what you mean about the way some of them behave. It is almost as bad as Survivalist Boards, but there are less trolls on that forum because there are less members.

I don’t recall.

Angie has two others I know of - Ranchers.net and Cattle Today. Both specialty for ranch and mainly cattle talk. Great folks.

Front porch chit-chat had me finding this photo of the log cabin I built and its front porch.

Nice!

Did you mill the decking yourself?

Yes. I sawed all the lumber in the cabin with my Alaska chainsaw mill and Husky 2100.
3" X 16" beams and 1" X 13" ceiling boards.

I would sure like someone to take care of the watering on our garden, two cats and 13 chickens while we are gone for 10 days or so in the middle of august. I even have a air conditioned motorhome all ready for them to stay in. This would be a nice thing for someone who wants to check out rocky mountain montana and get paid for it.

Anyone have any ideas how to find a trustworthy person?

Well, I'm posting here because everytime I click on "what's everybody doing today" the site drops me!! So anyhow, I'm up because my dog can't sleep!! Gave him a valarian root, he's finally dozing off. He's not handling the keeping calm after neutering too well. We walked around the back yard on the leash twice in the past hour and a half. He's in his crate and I'm on the couch! Think I'll be able to catch a little shut eye soon. I'm a very light sleeper so I'll hear him if he needs me!

 

[montanabill]

Played a spirited game of croquet with some friends, childhood memories of fun times. We made an event out of it with libations and special prizes for all.

Ditto! what's up?

Glad it's not just me! Anyone else having this problem???

Our teenager passed his driving test!!!!!! I already had a used car for him so we went to the insurance agent to get minimal coverage.
I didn't want to include him on our policy so just him with his own car at 18 years old is about $1500 for six months. More than doubled from a quote I got last year.

Congratulations to him!! Smart move on the insurance!
