Yeah, I'm just cooking a bone-in butt. Running a little hot at 295 degrees, but I wanna eat some of it tonight...lol

Made a basic rub for it. Garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, few chili flakes, porchini mushroom powder, a touch of sugar, and a couple secret ingredients. Looking forward to this boutique tangy apple BBQ sauce I found at the market today.

mmmmmm, now I am craving pizza AND meatball subs!!

I just cooked a couple hot dogs on the grill for lunch......but somehow that's not cutting it! And it's frozen pizza only for me...Not brave enough to eat ANY take out food for a while. It's been over a months since any take out, and I'm sticking with it.

Way too many people who are not at all taking this pandemic serious.

I did score a N95 mask though...Just in time, I have another doctors appt. tomorrow. That's got to be the worst place to be...especially this country PM doctor. Pretty sure the carpet in his waiting room is as old as me!!

Had enough freon to fully charge the car's AC system, seems to be working on both sides now also. There might be some thermocouple that keeps the AC on the drivers side only when it is low, can't find any reference to it though. Ordered 3 flush mount LED down lights to replace the fluoro box in the kitchen. Hopefully they will light the sink better than the stupid box does.

I did a led retro fit in a high hat over the sink. Pretty cool it has a halo ring for a night light. I like it. I would like to do more because we have these 2 weird floro boxes also.

I had two flood lights over the sink. I replaced those with LEDs and I love the blue sparkle. I got Cree LED floro replacements for the ceiling box. They were awesome! Then they were recalled for starting fires :cuss:

I used hardware cloth to keep out the critters but let in the wasps and bees. It also stiffens the structure nicely. Let the penis comments begin.

Checked the main water pipe going in the house and it was still leaking, it wasn't the hose bib leaking after all. Shut down the water at the meter and upon further inspection the slip joint seal was on a rough piece of the pipe that wouldn't seal. Wet sanded the pipe, moved the joint (yes I went there ) down to the smooth part of the pipe. Bob's your Uncle. That puppy has been leaking since I replaced the shutoff valve I guess. Accomplished two whole fixes today, I earned my buds and suds.
