Well, kids.
Enjoy the birthday party today.
Put some food on the grill, have a cold beer or whatever. No white or black Russians tho.

Made 24 pulled pork sliders out of some vacuum sealed pork I smoked a month or two ago. Hawaiian rolls, pork, bread and butter pickles, homemade pickled red onions, pepper jack cheese, and then brushed the top with a butter sauce made with some garlic, bbq rub, and Worcestershire. Into the pellet grill for 20 mins at 350. Forgot to get an after picture. Super easy and 🔥🔥🔥.  No leftovers 😔

downtown Chicago was always absolutely bonkers on the 4th, one time I took a small plane up out of Midway as my best friend was a pilot, and you could see fireworks like 50 miles all around you all at once, was super cool and something I'll always remember (since we nearly died multiple times that night lol)

I’d gladly move to Ireland, Scotland, England, France, Italy, Spain, or Switzerland if money weren’t an obstacle.

My Bohemian adjacent friends that live in Bloomington, IN have made a bit of money in real estate and are thinking of moving to Portugal. They say it’s pretty reasonable. Maybe they’ll give you $10,000?
