Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Superbowl Party Time


Another excuse to throw a Party, I guess. Why not, if you have a big TV (which we don't).


I have been thinking about the right food though. Barbecue seems right to me: Short ribs, spare ribs, baby back ribs - all the other ribs, brisket, maybe barbecue chicken too. Yeah, salsa and chips, corn bread, corn pudding, cole slaw, whatever. 


No guacamole for me, thank you. 


For a good time-waster, it's kinda fun to check out barbecue Youtubes. Many styles and ways to do it - oven, grill, fast, slow, smoked - and all delicious.

Amen to that.

The rest sounds very good.

Me, looking over at BD and feeblemind's snack tray, with the guacamole untouched, "Hey, you eatin' that? 'Cause mine's all gone."

LOL

It's all yours, Mike . . . unless my wife is there. Then you may have to arm wrestle her for it.

Oh, no. I ain't wrestling your wife AND mine for the guacamole. Women like to gang up on a guy for important stuff like that.

When we go out for Mexican food, to keep the love alive, I always offer any guacamole to my wife. I don't get many bonus points however, because she knows how little I like it. She's making something avocado based for tomorrow. I'll leave it for her, the daughter, and granddaughter.
