Martin Strayer has a pretty amazing list of artists that he has run sound for on tour including Joe Cocker, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Page & Plant, Soundgarden, the Eagles, Dixie Chicks, R. Kelly, Nora Jones, Billy Joel, Tina Turner, Cher, and so many more. I had no idea he was a San Antonio...
Advil and lots of water as a preemptive strike before bed. Advil and water when you wake up after a long sleep. Then, hit it hard with some sugar and electrolytes...gatorade works. If that stays down you should be golden but a nice, greasy fried breakfast should set you up for success. ;)
Well, I mean...we're TDPRI! The tele is one of the oldest electric guitar designs. We're talking about cast iron. Other recent posts on the forum are discussing medium and large format film photography equipment! I tend to go to Instagram and Tim Tok for my daily dose of "quick and...
Variety is the spice of life! I have a gas cooktop and a separate single burner induction in the kitchen. Pans range across cast iron, coated cast iron, stainless, non-stick aluminum. Outside I have gas, pellet and charcoal. Kind of like guitars. There are a few that can do everything and...
We have both a 12" and a Dutch Oven from them that we have used the heck out of for 20 years and they are terrific. They fry, bake, deep fry, braise...endless. My griddle is from Lodge.
I have the Barefoot Contessa cook book, for what that's worth. In terms of "shows", I don't actually have cable so... On YouTube I watch: Joshua Weissman, Adam Ragusea, How to BBQ Right, Mad Scientist BBQ. Others come and go. Uncle Roger is a riot.
Growing up, we didn't have cast iron in the house. The only fry pan was stainless. It lasted forever and, with enough oil/butter, things could be prevented from sticking. When I graduated from college, I thought I wanted hard anodized aluminum cookware...it was all the rage at the time. It...
I've been playing a lot of Monopoly Junior with my 3 and 6 year old lately. The good news is that rules drive things to a much more rapid conclusion than the original... :)
Pasta salad is a year-round thing at our house! The basic recipe remains the same but some of the toss-ins are "seasonal". I make a batch with about 3lb of Tri-color twists and the kids roll through it in a few days...
The latter sounds fantastic for a hot day! I'm always struggling for things to make on a hot August day in South Texas given I found my home here later in life.
This is almost exactly how I did it. I add the sesame oil and green onion late for fragrance and garnish. The pan/wok started with peanut oil, shallots and garlic.
I'm a big fan of quick and wholesome meals that we can throw together in a quantity that satisfies a family with 5 kids, two of which are hungry teens. On this forum, we've already had a thread about the merits of pasta salad which is a stalwart at Casa de Gibbly... Something new for us...
All gifts bought, all but ~2 have arrived, and are wrapped up. We went light on outdoor decorations as things were just a madhouse around here since Thanksgiving…looks like a lot of people in our neighborhood did less, too.
The last daunting task is the assembly of one large doll house. The...
