June 27, 2023. The day we brought her home from the hospital after a 3 day stay. She couldn’t breathe or walk. We thought we’d lose her. They worked a miracle and got her back home. That’s our daughter hugging her while we all cried tears of joy. This has been pinned over there since that day 🐾❤️

The peculiar premise got me interested. Then the soundtrack (80’s music) kept me watching. Then the show lagged. And lagged. Then it just became stupid. That was episode 1. That’s where I stopped. HBO has a great track record. Who’s in charge now?

When Sava was doing her weekly training every Saturday in Napa.

This is an annual event in Half Moon Bay. The only issue is that this is basically a weekend long festival that attracts thousands. But it’s all one lane roads leading into town. Probably my we’ve never gone. But that is an impressive pumpkin!

FB food memories: dinner. Might do this again tomorrow and add some of the gravlax.

You’re welcome! That was supposed to be “flesh sides together” 😂😂

You can put something on top to press, but I don’t bother. Tight wrap with the plastic wrap basically does the same thing.

I’d add that you can add any additional appealing sounding spices along with the salt & sugar. I added red pepper flakes to this one. And after you rinse & pat dry with paper towels, put them on a wire rack uncovered in the fridge overnight so it dries thoroughly.

<stock photo>. Super simple. Just cut the filet in half, generous coating of equal parts kosher salt & brown sugar on both halves, put the fresh sides together with fresh dill in between, wrap tight with plastic wrap, into a freezer bag. Fridge for 3-4 days, turning each day. Then rinse & dry

Thank you! Rest going to our Coastie neighbors

Thank you! That was a fun day. Game bookended by an early lunch & late dinner in the city.

Shit. I forgot today was when we honored that POS racist misogynist podcaster Chucky Kirky. May god rest his neck…err…soul. My bad. He is dead, right? 🤣

He didn’t care, so I don’t care. Fuck him.

Lock in that recipe, and, you know, send me a few tips too

Can’t sleep. Needed some Navy the day after our birthday.

No moose around here but have made it with elk. It was good.

Always extra, brother ❤️

You’re welcome! I watched it by myself the first time, so now I’m rewatching with myself. It’s pretty amazing!

10/14/14. Giants Cardinals NLCS game 3. A rare Tuesday midday game. My wife called our daughter’s school saying she wasn’t feeling well, then we headed to the city early for lunch before going to the game. A 10th inning walk off win!
