Well, the Smoked Turkey experiment is almost done.  We are fully smoked, and the picture to the left is the turkey as I unplugged the smoker.  I took the temperature, and it seemed good to me by sticking the thermometer in the thigh of...

Well, I have to rant for a moment.  I walked into a Walmart the other day, and honestly, I don’t like doing that.  I went through the food section, thinking I would pick up a few items, and I was appalled.  What happened to the prices there?...

I just read a blog post on Doctor Prepper this morning ab0ut healthier eating.  I try to eat healthy, but if you saw me eat on a business trip, you might think I was addicted to steaks or a junk food junkie.  Sad but true.  I can say that I...

I have been researching food for storage.  However, I have been researching food for storage that I will actually use, because I do not want to waste any money on buying food that will just sit in the can or container and get no use at all.  It...

This is more a personal post than anything else… I have had a long week.  Traveled on business, and along with traveling for business came business dinners, entertaining, etc.  I am really tired, and could have slept until Saturday morning...
