Rare rafinmd Posted July 24, 2021 #1527 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Today's sunrise is another from my 2007 upper Amazon Cruise on La Amatista. On July 24 we were approaching the midpoint of the cruise portion. Roy 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenzSailing Posted July 24, 2021 #1528 Share Posted July 24, 2021 I have discovered that Pat LaFreida meat processors of New Jersey are selling a 40 oz tomahawk steak available with CUSTOM ENGRAVING ON THE LONG BONE. Why do the meat gods tempt me so? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rafinmd Posted July 25, 2021 #1529 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Today's sunrise is from my 2008 Rovos Rail epic journey from Dar es Salaam to Cape Town. It was taken from the train July 25, 2008 as we approached Pretoria. Roy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenzSailing Posted July 25, 2021 #1530 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Whew! It's just a rotten cold. So, last weeks OLoPP's *%$&#! boss insisted she attend a two day in person group meeting. No masks, but everyone was vaxed. Couple days later she developed the sniffles, by the following day, she felt pretty lousy (congestion, sore throat, no aches and pains though.) After three days of this, I nagged her into the car and got her to a drive thru testing site. Results are negative. Like I said, whew. Anyone notice how there was virtually no flu season last winter (in NA)? Yeah, masks work. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do want to get exposed to some colds and ramp up my immune system sometime but this is not the time for that. Roy 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May, Well, not knowing about "ignore user" makes you a better person than I(not a high bar.) As to the tomahawk, yes it's purely aesthetic. The butcher leaves another 6 to 8 inches off the rib bone from a rib eye steak still attached. It's pretty much a summer on the grill thing. Think Fred Flintstone(um, me like fire!) I was just tickled that I could get the bone engraved. Imagine a steak for two plopped on the table with a bone in that read "Chez Kens." Hey, a cook can dream. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, a cook can dream. Aside from the fact the day when I could eat a whole steak that size are long gone, the thing that puzzles me about them is why anyone would pay for 8 inches of bare rib bone??? Especially at the price of beef these days, at least here in Canada!😲 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenzSailing Posted July 27, 2021 #1541 Share Posted July 27, 2021 STILL no bratwurst. OTOH, I've discovered my local merchant has a very flavorful chicken with white wine and garlic sausage. Then it hit me: it's a conspiracy by Big Chicken (AKA the Deep Cluck.) Yep, that has to be it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rafinmd Posted August 2, 2021 #1549 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I don't have a sunrise for August 2 so I am going to August 7. It's from my 2008 Rovos trip Dar Es Salaam to Cape Town. Dreading the idea of a long flight home from Cape Town I only flew as far as London and returned the rest of the way on QM2. This is the sun coming up from QM2 as we were about to dock in Brooklyn: Roy 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
