Glad I now know how to say that in Afrikaans

Blues and Greens…just like the Byzantines

Used to homebrew. At first I thought it’d be cheaper than buying my own beer but it quickly ratcheted-up with grain mills, larger and larger pots and burners, finding places to store the fermenting/aging beer, finding time to brew, finding time to bottle/keg, the clean-up and mess…and, in certain cases, you go through the whole process to find an entire batch has been ruined.

Sounds just like the US with TX and FL as the epicenter.

“Soft mouth” means they don’t bite what they’re retrieving. Spears and arrows don’t need “soft mouth”. Plus a dog can be trained to “point” to something or just run it out. Why waste a spear or an arrow or a bullet when you have a pack of hounds that will run out the coon, fox, etc? Let the dogs do the work - there’s no need for a spear when the deer collapses from exhaustion.

One of my favorite artists. His paintings are amazing to see in-person!!

People read it for the articles?

I’m stealing this! Right on. “Blue Lives Matter” is just for Smurfs and the cyanotic.

In my area of Upstate NY: Buffalo wings, Chicken French, Abbotts frozen custard, and Garbage Plates.

Buffalo wings are obvious.

Chicken French is a breaded chicken breast cutlet in a white wine/lemon sauce

Frozen custard is like ice cream but made with eggs…like a custard :-)

And Garbage Plates? Personally I prefer a white hot dog, a red hot dog, mac salad, and tater tots. All covered in onions, ketchup, mustard, and a spicy meat sauce. Like the Dubliner above (and the Buffalo wings), a Garbage Plate goes best with a couple beers.

Now I have munchies!
