The pork skin was browned and crispy, the pork was tender and juicy...and then he sticks it in the fridge overnight and roasts it for about an hour after church the next day, leaving the loin overcooked and a bit chilly in the middle.
$2.79 for a 6pack... that sounds just terrible. But then again I am not a huge fan of Trader Joes to begin with... After living in Seattle, San Diego, Dallas and Houston, I like almost any grocery store besides WalMart Neighborhood Markets better.Luke wrote: I would have had two or more, but it was Trader Joe's Name Tag Beer. Barf.
The only product I don't love from Trader Joe's (so far). $2.79 a sixer, and it tasted like rubbing alcohol poured in club soda. Still, it was better than the other options.
I think we should celebrate Easter together. I dont drink beer typically, but Id do it just for that.Luke wrote:So beer and walnuts was my Easter breakfast. No eggs (cholesterol), not even any egg substitute, no bread (carbs), no fruit (sugar), nada
What's funny is that I actually met Dr. Oz before he became a celebrity. He was a well-respected cardiac surgeon and performed an operation of one of my cousins who was born with a heart defect.Luke wrote:Dr.Phil and Dr.Oz should star together in a tv show titled "Quacks".BoneSnapDeez wrote:I watched three episodes in a row on the OWN network...
My Mother in law thinks Dr.Oz can not be wrong, and I ponder that she believes he can provide infinite life. The guy is a salesman, and I can't see why she doesn't see that.
I'll put it this way, from now on when we visit my wife's parents, we'll have to bring a cooler of food. On Easter morning before church my wife asked in a shocked voice, "Are you drinking a beer?". I was. "Well I can't blame you given the choices". The choices of drink were almond milk or unsweetened coconut milk. Breakfast options included a bowl of walnuts or a bowl of almonds. No fruit in the house because it "contains too much sugar".

My parents own a house on the side of a mountain around a half hour away from the BRParkway. Hit me up and maybe we could do lunch somewhere near Blowing Rock or Boone. But if you are in Eastern NC, you should definitely check out my crib.fastbilly1 wrote: I am planning on traveling to the Blue Ridge Parkway sometime this summer (for a side project), but I might have to make it alittle further east to finally catch lunch with you Luke.
8am's early now, is it?Jagosaurus wrote:Coffee in hand on RB!
Admittedly, I'm rarely asleep before midnight but the guys in the late night thread make me look like a grandpa.
