😳 That would be quite a supper and would require calling in sick tomorrow. 😂😂

Emma’s occupied with her Kong treat ball. Makes her work for it a little 🤪

Tonight’s sipper. Cheers Friends 😃

Did you try turning “show wallpaper” off in your “always on display” setting? It’s under settings>display & brightness. That should keep the clock showing when your phone is locked with a black screen.

Great score, I occasionally check their website but there isn’t much listed. Especially not the red/blue corns. Best time to buy it is when you see it!! Ben Holladay is another I would like to try but doesn’t show up in the wild in my area. I believe they are closer to @Sea Dog area. Missouri

Eagle Rare for me this evening. Cheers friends! 🍻 Today was crazy hot in Pittsburgh. Humidity was ridiculous making it way worse. Tried to walk Emma this morning around 8 am. Already sooo hot 🥵

Oh Man! I’ve been wanting to get my hands on anything from Still Austin. What was your favorite?

Cheers!! 🍻

It was hard to stop eating them but saved some tonight too 😋

I sometimes eat my pierogies with Heinz Ketchup 🤷🏻‍♂️ 🙄

Looks great! I’ve never tried that method.

OMG … Pork Belly burnt ends turned out amazing. Soo good. Big fan of this recipe.

+1 I’ve been following your stories and been praying everything works out for you.

I grew up on them and learned my moms/nana’s recipe so i could make my own and freeze big batches at a time. They are a “pittsburgh thing” too hence the Pierogi races at PNC park baseball games 🤪

Oh my! I love pierogies. Kinda like a ravioli but bigger with cheesy mashed potato filling. There’s tons of different fillings people do. I stick to the tried and true potato/cheese. Sautéed with onions or boiled with butter are typical preparations.

Pork Belly Burnt Ends are started on the smoker. This is my first time trying this cut of meat and recipe so hopefully it turns out ok. Earlier today I made a batch of potato & cheese pierogies. 😋

😆 This is fantastic lol

Well, the office is closed tomorrow for Juneteenth so i’ll take this as an opportunity to try a bourbon this evening and smoke some meat tomorrow. I think we are going to do Pork Belly Burnt Ends or maybe just the pork belly as is. Trying the Larceny Barrel Proof this evening. 🥃 cheers 😀

I bought a case of BT for that reason a few months ago. I split it with friends and kept the rest to have on hand. Good one to keep around. Plus DW likes Trace so that’s all the reason I need to keep it on hand 😀

This is a great point. I see online prices double and triple what msrp should be. For example I got a bottle of Blantons for $62 (out of pure luck) a couple weeks ago. I regularly see it for $160 online. Not worth that to me.

Yeah that’s rarely seen in PA however my buddy got 3 bottles of Weller in Ohio last week.

I’m heading in the same direction myself. Running out of room to store everything. PA does run a lottery that’s easy enough to sign up for. Maybe i’ll get lucky in one of those with minimal effort.

The hunt for certain allocated bottles is exhausting and frustrating especially in PA. State run liquor monopoly. Certain people have become privy to the delivery schedules and somehow get wind of rare bottle deliveries. Very common for 50 people to be lined up outside fine wine & good spirits stores 2 hours before they open on those delivery days. Often times there’s only a case or 2 which means half of them stood in line for nothing. I haven’t tried that Rabbit Hole Sherry finish. Adding to list 😳

I like the “chemist” spin you put on it. Might have to steal that. 🤔

While i have some “everyday drinkers”, I too like to try different Bourbons. (note .. i do NOT drink whisky everyday for the record! 🤪) It has led to a decent collection of bottles. I believe I’m around 40 bottles at the moment. I enjoy trying them and hunting for ones I want to try.
