Outside the dugout: What's cooking?

I just munch on them, the carrots, eggs, and tomatoes as I eat the chicken and potato salad and different crackers.

 

I gain 10 pounds every time I read this thread. Shame on you guys.

 

Lol, I get what you’re saying @swampgas44, but it’s funny that you posted it on a cold plate supper.

 

That's why he gained ONLY 10 pounds.

 

Simple and good tonight. Grilling hamburgers and hotdogs with BBQ baked beans and chips for sides.

We’ve got a work day at the hunting lease today so the ice cold longnecks will be especially appreciated this afternoon and evening.

I went to Publix this morning - the one here on the island - and got some Tofu! Also an Ultimate sub - they were on sale - watermelon, milk, lettuce, Breyers black Raspberry ice cream (yum!), and some new cat food. I fed my cat when I got home and he practically ate the entire can of it. I noticed he wasn't eating so much of his dry kibble so thought this might be the ticket. And it was. He's a great cat. Outside cat for the past 14 years when he showed up as one of an orphan litter of four. He's the last one left.

I have a transmission leak on my truck ('02 Silverado) so will be headed out to work on that later. Hopefully nothing major.

I just had half of that sub and it was pretty good. Especially with orange drink.

It's summertime, but I love the hot entrees as well.
P.S. You can keep the tofu.

 

I should have been more specific on the "orange drink"....it's this stuff. LOVE the flavour!

 

With caffeine! I'm all in with that.

 

Current TDF standings.....

 

Tomorrow a HC summit finish!

Slope averages 7.1% with some sections as much as 12%.



Peaking ahead......Monday will be a rest day and the rest of the stages will include a lot of climbing until the last day so we're in for some fantastic racing this week!

 

Tonight we’ve got grilled wings and a cold tray on tap.

It continues with our Panhandle heat/humidity/thunderstorms to keep things hot and muggy.

The afternoon/evening ice cold longnecks and chilled wine remain our preferred choices for winding down our days.

Right now it looks like it’ll just be some rain more than anything. Hope the folks in west Fl, Al, Ms, and La all fare as well as possible.

 

Has one of my tenderloin steaks tonight - so tender and moist and flavourful....mmmmm......

Will do something with my tofu this week.

Good news...I found the transmission fluid leak on my Silverado and got a temporary fix on it! It was where corrosion ate away one of the lines under one of those plastic line holders. I let it sit for a day so I could see where the leak was coming from. I have two brand new replacement lines but in the meantime just cut the corroded line and put in a short section of hose with hose clamps so it can be driven without spurting fluid everywhere. Not sure what kind of tubing this is so will get some official transmission tubing tomorrow and then go see my mechanic and ask about getting both lines replaced.

Was nice to have some rain free weather this afternoon to get some stuff done.

Life is good....in Gator Nation!

 

Folks, just sold my place in Miami and am moving to Jacksonville. To make packing, etc easier I've junked all my kitchen paraphernalia.

To rebuild once I get up there what would you "foodies" recommend as a starting process?
