Beach Camping

Beach camping with boogie boards and an old Coleman Tent. Tent's been going for 20 years, sheltering me and dogs... and now boogie boarders and a kind Wife who does not care for camping, but is willing to put up with it for the beach.

Spring climb

Exploring and hiking the parks.

Thanks Spring for taking the ice and snow away!

No school No scooting

Snow is amazing fun... if you live in the South.

Will be hanging on to these cool memories, come Summer and heat.

Cheeseburger Pizza Pie

Brown about 1/2 pound of hamburger, season the way you like. Usually a half pound of browned crumbled hamburger matches up well with an average size frozen pizza.

Add a little olive oil to the pizza pan. Place frozen pizza on pizza pan and add some extra cheese to the toppings.

Sharp cheddar is great, so is provolone. What ever your favorite burger cheese, add it.

Finally, add browned hamburger crumbles. Bake and let pizza cool for 10 minutes.

Pour a glass of root beer and enjoy a slice!

Music for Cheeseburger Pizza Pie should include The B52's and Devo.

Winter Jedi

It is important to have as many lightsabers as possible on your person...

when Jedi practicing.

Home Brew Root Beer

Got a Home Brew Root Beer kit for Christmas! So far, it's going tasty well.

A great guide to start from, Professor Fankhauser's Making Root Beer at Home. Straight forward technique to put ingredients together and monitor brew process.

I am using champagne yeast, good flavor and natural carbonation. For my base ingredient, Old Fashion HOMEBREW Birch Root Beer Extract. And adding a little ginger to the mix, and exploring other ingredients.

My Home Brew Root Beer kit, Thanks Karen for a Great Christmas Gift: extracts and ingredients, sugar, champagne yeast, some cheesecloth for straining the root beer out of brew container, and nice fridge containers for root beer chilling.

Home Brew Root Beer, fun and tasty!

Santa delivers wheels

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
