Uh, duh, like delivery pizza, huh and duh TL ma'am?

What did we end up eating that you offered none to us of, huh TL ma'am?

I scrounged around and found some almonds and a protein bar. I ate that so I didn't pass out from low blood sugar, then went out later for a nice meal at a quaint little family owned Italian place that plays Sinatra records and looks like it's straight out of a Sopranos episode.

 

TB sorry your kitty is poorly. Hope you can get her meds and food on track.

The Frenchie got a new grill too. Well, I say "new" because it's new to him. The neighbors across the street moved and put their gas grill, minus one wheel, at the curb free for the pickins. After 24 hrs it was still there so we wandered over to take a look, turns out it's a Weber. I said okay we can clean it up and get replacement parts if needed. I spent 3 hours on Sat. with the de-greaser, hot water, Dawn dish soap, a rag and scrub brush, and the garden hose set to full blast working it over. Then I went online to Weber and ordered a new gas hose and regulator and new insides. Frenchie is happy and Many $$$ economized.

I'm sure the Dane would have loved a Weber, but alas, what we decided on is just to replace our Charbroils every 5 years. They certainly are a lot cheaper.

I let you know when another gas one shows up on the curb.

Man I have an outdoor kitchen with a nice drop-in gas grill. But man nothing beats the flavor from the charcoal grill with some mesquite chips... 

I start cooking ribs and steaks on the charcoal, then  the "controlled temp finish" on the gas grill. 

 

This year, I added a "Malaysia satay grill" so my wife's thuggy friends can grill their own ####...

 

Some of you didn't see my BBQ pics lol

Okay, one of the things I do in my spare time is to research my French-Canadian ancestry. I have a tree on Family Search and have spent MANY, MANY, MANY hours reading page by page old Catholic Parish registers from Quebec. They are hand written and in French so not the easiest thing to do but once you get the hang of it not too bad. Once I find a record I then link the document and attach it to the person in question and update the info.

 

So, I decided to do a follow-up check on a record and some blank, blank, blank rocket scientist has gone in altered my tree, deleted correct information and replaced it with incorrect information from a different genealogy site. Never bothering to actually read the blank, blank, blank, LINKED, linked parish record. This has happened more than once with more than one ancestors record. Short of sending the rocket scientist an email and telling them how stupid they are I don't know what else I can do.

 

okay, better now.

Speaking of cooking, I wonder if Stretch's duckies are fat enough to be eaten yet...

Now all she needs is her very own fishing pole, so that she can also catch the dinner.

One is and I told the Hillbilly to get a move on it. He needs to order the duck wax and a bigger pot. 6 more will be ready in about 2 more months.

I'm guessing these things are open to others? I would send the guy a nasty message that he should not edit things he knows nothing about. 

 

My Aunt is into all the Genealogy stuff too. She spends way too much time on it. But it something she likes to do.
