  1. Same with me and my wife. Oddly enough though our son loves all kinds of seafood. He’s like his grandparents in that respect.
  2. Same with maple syrup from VT. It just tastes better than the stuff from trees in other states and provinces.
  3. I am generally opposed to any substitutes. I don't want tofurky, turkey bacon, or impossible burgers. Just make them taste good on their own instead of trying to replicate something else's taste.
  4. Really? I still think its a bit early to start building a pack. J. Spin posted some data on this a few pages back. I tend to think we have some sort of snow around half the time on Thanksgiving, J. Spins data was right around that . It usually starts over the next week or two.
  5. Once they saw me and dryslot ripping around the lawn on our sleds, they would just hang out and drink beer with us.
  6. We’ll “watch” his place for him.
  7. Snowing enough to cover the ground. Between .25”and .50” maybe.
  8. Or when life gets cheesy, make fondue.
  9. That 1969 storm is dryslot’s winter avatar.
  10. I figured any GF you had would have been retired for many years by now.
  11. My wife didn't take any of the first and never filled the script for the second
  12. A few years ago my wife broke her pinky finger and the ER gave her 30 oxys. A few weeks later she had to have it reset and that Dr. gave her 30 more. I'm not sure of the sizes. And we wonder why we have opioid problem.
  13. Up here, recently, it's become harder as people haven't been answering their phone or in some case not being truthful with the contact tracers.
  14. Same here, the spread has been fueled by small home gatherings and other places where people become more lax following protocols. Our governor specifically noted that when he announced tighter restrictions. He was asked why restaurants and gyms weren't closing and he said that there really haven't been any outbreaks traced to those types of establishments. . There was the initial hockey league outbreak that was started by someone who travelled out of state and came back and didn't follow any of the guidelines and kept carpooling to the ice rink and there have been couple of Halloween parties that have bumped up the transmission.
  15. Even up here it isn't all that normal to have the snowpack start this early, the last couple of years notwithstanding. I would estimate that we have snow on Thanksgiving maybe half the time? Other than the truly ridiculous week of San Diego weather we had, we seem to be on a somewhat normal progression.
  16. And it looks like mouse, not a rat.
  17. I really slept on the wintryness of this time period. I wasn't expecting it to be 18° this morning with on and off snow showers. Not as much as you hill folk received but a nice covering with grass poking through. Maybe .75"?
