I was excited when I first saw the trailer. I'm excited again.

Evidently I enjoy finding the fire truck honking out front was for an Amazon delivery truck double parked... And the driver evidently still inside so they got an earful. Not that over the line joke of misappropriated meaning, but two cars wide parallel parked on our street.
Neighbor's HVAC blew something and filled the house with nasty fumes, but no fire thankfully. I can touch their roof from our side windows and we were preparing to vacate in case it turned out to be needed.

I watched the movie -

My "how come" comment was tongue-in-cheek -

Although, still not foolproof. My sister-in-law got lyme disease while birding, in Northern Michigan, in late winter. Despite snow on the ground, the sun on the undergrowth was warm enough for ticks to be active. It's been something like 8 years and she still has symptoms.

Last night I learned that tostadas are way better if you cook the shells in lard rather than oil.

Everything is better if you cook it in lard instead of oil.
EVERYTHING

Donuts and apple fritters too.
Who'd a thunk?

Don't forget bacon!

The only thing better than cooking in lard is cooking in lard you rendered yourself in your back yard in a huge cast iron cauldron.

Same with hot wings, fries, tots....

I also learned that if you take one of these, cut it into 1 inch squares and fry them in lard, they are delicious. Good by themselves, or with some powdered sugar.
