    What's for Dinner?

    I fired up the pit, and we had fajita meat, with all the trimmings. Homemade pico de gallo and the like. Followed by a fine pipe full of Nat Sherman tobacco, and some lemon meureng pi!

    What's For Breakfast...

    The farmers were guilt by association, in the fact that the public forgot that farmers were protesters. Daylight savings time was first adopted in parts of Canada, I believe in the early years of the twentieth century. I've read that during World War One to save on energy costs many of the...

    What's For Breakfast...

    It's to no fault of the farmer's. Farmer's get up with the sun, as does their live stock. In fact daylight savings time can be quite harmful to egg production and other such things by changes to the animals sleeping schedule. The reason farmers get the blame for daylight savings time is that...

    Your favorite movie quotes

    "Insanity runs in my family. It practically gallops." - Mortimer Brewster, Arsenic and Old Lace. The film remains my grandmother's favorite, and she's passed it on to me. Her favorite quote comes at the end of the film when Mortimer cries, "I'm the son of a sea-cook."

    Lost art of proper relaxation

    I figure largely this is all about the individual. One has to attach the meaning of relaxation to an activity for it to be so. Inspired by some of my Golden Era Heroes, as well as a few other role models, I make sure and set aside some relaxation time each and everyday. Even if it only...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Master and Commander is a favorite of mine! I haven't watched it in a long while, but I frequently have the soundtrack on in the background. Over breakfast and morning chores I watched John Wayne's The Alamo.

    What's for Dinner?

    Golly there are some good looking dinners on here. Tonight we're fixing tilapia with rice and I think some salad. Sort of a what's in the fridge sort of night. Yesterday however I felt the need to stand around a good fire, with good friends, good food, and good whiskey. A few phone calls and...

    Your signature cocktail.

    I've never had just one cocktail that I'd always order. Though admittedly I'll never turn down a drink with Jameson Irish Whiskey. More recently I've been expanding my horizons and have found several cocktails that I keep the home bar stocked for. The Flame of Love is first, while rather...

    What do you use to shave?

    I started shaving with a fancy gillette razor when my whiskers first appeared in 6th grade. I shaved maybe once per month then...By the time things started filling in so much that I needed to start shaving daily I found it was damned expensive to keep replacing those blades as frequently as I...

    What's For Breakfast...

    If it is not overly presumptuous of me, I'd like to recommend the "Fannie Farmer Cookbook". It was one of the first modern cookbooks, and, as it was created for a cooking school it is not solely a book of recipes, but also a book of explanations of tools, food, and technique! Each generation...

    Adventure! Fedora Lounge Folks in Action!

    Big Man, that does look like a fun time. I am really excited about taking my son for hikes in the local state and national parks as spring sets in. He already loves our short walks in the field outside the house. He just lights up, day or night, when he gets to experience the world outside.

    What's For Breakfast...

    Firstly, thanks all for the fine compliments. It is very much a privilege to live out in West Texas, and to enjoy such a fine breakfast. Secondly, I was a city mouse, reared by country mice. Opportunity brought my great grandparents from all over the country to New York City, and I grew up...
