Last time I was in Tucson, I had these BOMB smoke brisket blue corn green Chile tamales. SO GOOD. If you don’t want to go to the trouble of individual tamales, you can execute en masse and steam up a tamale pie. A personal fav of mine With a fried egg on top. This one was todays lunch, so we...

Here’s another. - northern NM Red Chile pork tamales. I’m not going to lie as they’re a cap ton of work to meez up n process but are always the first to go during the holidays in my neck of the woods because they’re freakin delicious. Technically it IS a do ahead item so would open up plenty of...

Here’s one of our households: Chimayo Red Chile pork tamales. what are yours?

This method is very handy in that you can prepare the ingredients ahead of time, plate at service and not be stuck in a hot kitchen. individual croquetas/quiches/tartlets/meat pies are great for this as well. Bake em off & next day give them a few minutes in the oven to warm/liquify the fat...

Another idea that is great for a grazing table is to deconstruct a dish into edible sub sections like this - I took a salad champetre (could do this with something like nicoise as well) and deconstruct it to finished sub-ingredients that folks could enjoy individually or they could build the...

I’m a big fan of keeping it simple. We’ll typically put out a table of charcuterie, cheese, pickled items, dip, crudite’, & some munchies like nuts/chips/pretzels & just let folks graze. Most items are shelf stable so will last the celebration with little maintenance. Table is typically built...

I’m grateful that my family came together, ate a bunch of lovingly crafted food & took all my leftovers with them to enjoy again.

Definitely incorporating some LEDs into my G5s after seeing this. What sort of translucent vinyl did you use for the diffusing bit? It really comes off like the OG cathode bulbs. Looks fantastic 🙂

I ran into a great deal per pound on some beef locally that I couldn’t pass up and that was reason to pull out this gadget. - a vacuum sealer. This particular unit is a Internet 5003134. I typically use this for venison the family harvests but in any instance of protein plenty, these are always...

Money pit for a reason LOL. I already am on to the next project which is tearing out the old carpet on the stairs and installing new oak boards which I have stacked up in the garage. Hopefully I get to that tomorrow. which I have about 25 or so to get done. It would be nice to get those cut and...

I like this idea very much for the over the fridge space. Your custom shelve idea over the range are a good fit for this space I think. It would block light from traveling but would allow me to make custom shelving out of nice strong hard wood (vs common prefab manufactured materials) that I...

I thought I did not have a photo of the old 70's kitchen as it was when we bought the place around the end of 2019 so have attached this for posterity before I forget. Where the fridge was is where the trashcan is in the pic. I see we have the advent hanging over it, so this must be Christmas...

Welcome aboard! My Dad is in his late 70s and he is way into ham radio (KA8DXI his callsign) and ham is what first got him into computers I think ... or it could have been folks at the labs he worked at but anyways, nowadays he runs his radios off his 27" imac. He has a cool set up. I need to...

Hi there. Have fun!

Forbidden in the sense that it will burn all parts of you that come in contact with it. That is how I took that. Through that lense, the cap/battery barf destroy everything it comes in contact with. and tacos are fantastic. I think we should eat tacos on at least a weekly basis As a nod to...

Who knew that spinners work fantastically as weighted presses when tasked with repairing your 5y/o sons MOTU packaging. I figure he’ll eventually want this back as the apple rarely falls too far from the toy nerd tree. 🤔

Oh maybe Ill take a family picture of my dead or terminally ill macs. That sounds like some fun could be had there. ... and just in time for Halloween. :D

Woof my eyes!! lol. I switched to try it out and was immediately blinded. With all the dark mode around, I need a 10 step program to make it back to light mode. :D

Very nice. These a1278s are one of my fav early intel macs. They do chew through batteries like no other but have served me well since I picked it up in 2008. Over the years mine picked up max 8gb ram, an SSD, and a backlit kb. The only thing I wish it had was FW & a card reader like the mbp...

I am curious what that pincher looking tool with the reddish orange handles does? Space is looking fantastic BTW.
