Lunar eclipse during an Aurora

Woh, did you take that photo Rob?

Ok, so, did a couple chicken thighs the same way I do wings today. The only difference between thighs and wings is the wings tend to have the skin all around so it doesn't come off in one slab like the thighs do.

But, I pull any chicken pieces out when the seasoning gets the appropriate color and the chicken fat is sizzling in the bottom

One thing I do is if I am using a glas baking dish, I put some oil in because the glass doesn't get hot enough for anything stuck to release easy like a metal sheet pan does.

This is start to finish:
- Raw chicken in pan, salt and black pepper
- Covered in garlic powder
- Covered in paprika
- Drizzled some oil in the pan
- In the over at 425 for about an hour until the seasoning starts to blacken

So here's the pitchurs.












And yes, meatballs in a cast iron frying pan in the over with a dollop of bacon grease in the bottom is proof God loves us and wants us to be happy.

Freedom

IF you are wondering what I mean; getting up in the morning, eating some crappy sugary cereal, watching cartoons, then get on my bike and not be back until god knows when. Drinking water from neighbor's hoses and eating carrots picked from their gardens (I can still feel the grit and crunching from the dirt that wasn't fully cleaned). Now days, don't go here, don't do that. It's too dark, it's too sunny out. (Not what we do with our kids but so many parents do with theirs). That's the type of freedom kids now days will never understand. Being outside all day, getting yelled at by an old lady because we decided to run under her sprinkler when it was hot. Playing video games on our C64 when it rained but the moment it stopped, outside. Using our imaginations. Something kids these days will never understand. That's the freedom I'm talking about.

Don't forget playing outside during thunder/lightning storms while your mom is yelling for you to get inside!

Tone controls....redefined for today's world. Get your Karen on!!!

How old are you? I thought you were younger than I, but we had cable TV here since the late 60's. There were only 13 channels on the dial though. And the remote was wired. Dad was a stereo/electronics nut.
These days I use an antenna though. Nothing to watch on cable worth the cost, so I cancelled in 2014.

If you have a newer tv, get it on the internet and add plex, pluto, or Samsung plus tv. There are others too.
You'll have 75% of what's on cable for free. With a Samsung tv, when it searches for on air channels and
Is connected to internet, it will automatically add Samsung plus channels starting on channel 1000.


As a kid on the farm, when my hands got greasy working on something, we would wash our hands with
Leaded gas. We also would have to wash up outside at the hydrant before we were allowed in.
