Survival Food Review: MRE - TF Free Vanilla Pound Cake Update!



Bottom line: This is an update to our previous review of one of these that had gone bad in the pouch. We tried another one in order to be fair. This one was lighter in color and softer. John smelled and tasted the vanilla but I didn’t. Dry with a slight sweetness followed by a chemical flavor. 3 Thumbs up!

Beer Review #176: Founders - Highball Drifter!



Bottom line: Spice and orange peel on the nose. Sweetness up front followed by malt, spice and dried fruit. Very complex. 4 thumbs up!

Grilled a couple of thick (1.5") pork cops tonight on the gas grill along with packet asparagus (butter and coarse garlic powder). Light smoke with some apple chips in a foil packet.I rubbed the chops with a dry rub last night, sure wish I could remember what I put in the rub.  Onion and garlic powders for sure along with salt and pepper.
After grilling I treated it like a roast, let it rest for 10 minutes under foil before cutting into it. It turned out nice and juicy.
Hey Rampy, are you hungry yet?😁

Can't say I am surprised. You can be sure his staff is busy drafting pardons for himself and his entire family for "any crime they may have committed". I don't believe that will stand up in court unless they name the crimes.

He endorsed kamala and you can be sure all she has as an argument to Trump in a debate is that he is a racist and misogynist. I don't think that will fly at all. She couldn't even get enough support in the primary to make it to the first state. 

I see Trump in a landslide.
