Lmao yeah me too!
My love of cooking comes from grandmother, and she always called it dressing.
So its just stuck even though my parents call it stuffing.
And if you ask my father in law, they're both different?
He says dressing is cooked seperate where stuffing goes in the bird?
Idk its all the same to me, i just call it dressing![]()
Father In Law is correct, stuffing into cavity, dressing in 350degree oven, cornbread cooked previous day, just re-heat and add giblet gravy, old Tennessee boy here,SSgrower



NICE!!!!!! sucks the tips don't fit... she got muffin top!!! hehe
those were the biggest wooden tips i saw at a decent delivery and price.. i might have to custom some plastic ones like the bigger size. and bandit mentioned the OG purple rose ones, i think those might be more of the size needed but i'm not 100% sure.
looks beast though man!!!!!
ya know man, that's such a cool story i think i'm gonna have to give it to ya man!!! dressing or stuffing is accepted but grandma rules!!
my grandma was a terrible cook, the only tip i ever got from my grandma was what a refrigerator is not supposed to smell like!! haha
my parents is where i get my love for cooking. my mom is a good cook and probably had to be because her mom was so bad at it. and my dad was an even better cook so i learned all the fundamentals from them. plus my dads brother(uncle) was a chef and owned his own restaurant growing up so i was always around a kitchen of some sort. his place was my very first job as a kid, well tax free anyway!! hehe i think it was like $4 or 5 dollars an hour, i was so excited makin the big bucks!!!!! haha
i've heard more than a handful of people also saying this from asking around outside the forum.... i'll still call it stuffing, and i never put it inside the turkey... ewww!!!

there is a slight bow in the sides but holding up well. i could make a sleeve to hold the shape better if i wanted. it has a cooking size of at least 17" x 13" x 10" deep. it's a little bigger than that if i need to crowd it up but that's the comfortable cooking size with good circulation all the way around. i need it to cook four racks of ribs and two pounds of wings for next wednesday. i'm going to custom make a rib rack to hold them all and i think it will work well.
and it cost less than $25!!!!! sue-veed for life now!!!!!

You gonna SV a whole suckling pig in that thing!! Man that's huge!
Whatcha got planned for Xmas meal? Still undecided here but thinking maybe prime rib roast or a pork rib rack. Could also do a thing called Marry Me Chicken my wife is nudging me to do.
Also need to go to Home Depot and find the old Mexican lady selling tamales in the parking lot.
Won't do the traditional ham or turkey here and damn sure aint gonna do any stuffing or dressing
Raiders put down such an ass whooping they got the Charger coach fired! I heard they even left him in Vegas!
IDK how a team can go from scoring only 3 points one week then follow up with a 60 burger the next but that's The Raiders for ya!
Any new coach rumors out yet? Still need a QB but they've needed one of those since Rich Gannon left. They've got some nice pieces at certain positions but dang, no QB and a shotty Oline have them looking pretty bad again. Gonna be interesting to see who they target for HC though.

Hotchkis makes some really nice suspension stuff. My friend Mary Pozzi uses their suspension stuff on her '69 Camaro and is an SCCA Autocross champ!
Only you dude. Only you would be the guy that would need scaffolding on his sous vide!
You did give me an idea though....I have some old coolers out in the shed. I bet the big one would make a great SV tub!
Man I so want the Raiders to be better. I like the NFL a lot more when the old school teams are in the hunt. Give me some Raiders, Steelers and Cowboys & Niners in the super bowl hunt. None of this Jville Jaguars, Chiefs, and Bucs garbage.
Coaches are on odd trend lately...Seem to either be and old grizzled and gravel voice ex lineman or some new school super nerd on the sidelines these days.
If I was Vegas I'd be tempted to throw a draft pick or two at Seattle and lure Pete Carrol away. Get somebody who knows how to build a team in there.
As for QB's...the draft has a few this year. I like Penix and Nix. Williams is a really good player but eccentric and bit of a head case and the Raiders don't need any drama. Justin Fields might come on the market. After that it's hot garbage. Not sure how Jimmy G is even on a roster. Can he even throw it past 10 yards? Him on a roster while Colt McCoy is at home is so fucking stupid.
Ewers will be off the Horns next year and in the draft. He'll be a very good one then in 2-3 years we'll be sending the next Manning up to the league. I guess the one good thing about Vegas lacking a winning QB is that so is 80% of the rest of the league![]()
Stoney that rear seat area is a nice place to put a couple of bottle of nitrous.








Not sure how I dropped the ball here Stoney , thanks for the offer , but got one in process and think I’m gettin in on that 3d printer thing y’all got goinnot that much of a learning curve with it, kinda simple just fill and pack down tight. i went a little at a time with it. added a pinch or two of herb then tamped it down, added some more tamped it down... repeat.
coat it in concentrate of your choice and twist it up!! you'll figure it out in no time man.. kinda like a pizza, even if it comes out a little messed up it's probably still pretty good!!! hehe
that a corvette, it belongs to his father in law. the deal was if my buddy would store four cars his father in law would pay for the building and the lifts!!! so he just made the building a little bigger than he originally wanted to hold the cars for him.. it only ended up being the three cars though so worked out even better for him.
me!?!?! you see who started all this right?i'm just along for the buzz!!!!
that sucks yours stuck so bad. i never thought about the grinder point you made but you're right it always sticks to those as well. i wonder if you could coat it with something, or maybe try to polish it. my 3d printer leaves lines and grooves in though and not smooth. nothing sticks to mine at all, had it pressed for more than 24 hours and it popped right out. i wiped the mold out with the inside of my shirt and it looks good as new!
you mentioned you had some teflon. i bet that would work, UHMW would be good too i bet if you have access to any.
but man if you don't wanna go through all that again it's no problem i'll print ya one out if you want?
I’ve seen those tracks cars/trucks launch 40/50 feet double jumps on super cross tracks during intermissionsthose gliders are very cool!!! i like watching those things, but never had the balls to try one!! there are so many compilation videos of people crashing them... i can't watch those man.. thousands of dollars just smashed in seconds!! noooooooo!!!
theres not many stock parts left on my traxxas anymore.. i've modified pretty much everything on it to make it heavier, faster, more powerful, and as low of a center of gravity as i can get!! but yeah she's mean and salty!!!!!!here's a pic when it was new...

i remember having an rc10... i think a hornet and a fox too!!!! rc10 might have been the first serious rc though, that one came stock with bearings versus most had bushings back then. i bet i still have some parts from back then packed away somewhere!!! i used to poke roofing nails out through the tires to make them spiked and we would rack on frozen pools with em!!!!
.
i bet that 70 nova and yours were real similar!!! he has work in the front end on that thing.. its all tube front end with a mean motor in her. he is putting an all fiberglass front end on to save weight. she's be a frightening. all the work he's doing is pretty much so he can do wheelies, it's his main goal with car since he bought it!! i'll take some pics of that nova tonight!!!
and that fancy car is really a Genesis but they're a sister company of hyundai... their goal is for you to look at the genesis and never think hyundai. i think they succeeded!!!! the thing is pimp man!! the tachometer turns into a monitor of the cameras when you put on the turn signal!!!

Look into moon/astrological info~!
Just found info in my farmer's almanac.
I just found they have days listed for pruning that will accelerate growth or slow growth~!Would not want to get them mixed up. Who knew??
Not for nothing but I will try not to go completely against it in the future~!
Can't hurt too much to follow?
Can't wait for racing to start again~!![]()

That the can am side by side ? Those are bad ass fun machines - Polaris makes a nice ride as well
So I think a quick version is to prune when the moon is waxing [ growing from new to full].
They say it pulls liquids to the upper parts of plants. Same for cloning.
Pruning when the moon is waning [ shrinking from full to new] is discouraged as it says moisture/liquids are drawn to the lower part of plant/ soil.

The cab sure did clean up purrty and an xtra 8" is real nice!
Not sure about that view of #5's ass end though.

My famis all over the country- haven’t had a family Xmas in years - was lucky enuff to have both my adult children in Florida a couple years ago , this year wife was in Florida I was in Michigan crazy world we live inI am alone taking care of a long time employer this Christmas, guess it's been 15 years since I had a Christmas like described above, Happy Vacation, Cheers! SSgrower
Only reason is cause it never died! Lmao Hondas run forever.HONDA~ Had One Never Did Again
Um ya, that took me a minute to think about. It’s the little things from our past that get ya.
I have a few. Including a Red Ryder that I found in the basement rafters. I cleaned it up but someone burned their initials into the stock.
Christmas was okay. Different. Grandkids and most of my family is hours away now. A lot passed the last few years. Same with my wife’s side.
We had a few nephews over and a cousin who’s more like a brother in law. Been friends for 30 years or more.
Quiet and relaxing for the most part. Enjoying the faces as they open or watch another open gifts. Share meals and drinks.
Then a few days of back to back smoking.I think 4 of us missed Boxing Day entirely.
I’ll start worrying again on the 1st of 2024. For now…I’m on vacation.
How was the Love Shack the last few days? Any creatures still stirring?

Thanks for the morning smiles.i still have a red rider my dad gave me as a kid... still fires too!!! that and i have one of those evil pellet guns that break the sound barrier!!
but yeah i was thinking if your city is slow you might get a few weeks of darkness per BB!!!
your holiday sounded nice, the quiet and relaxing part sounded the best!!!!! i was on the quite the smoking bender too, napped right through most it!!! haha
ours was quiet as well.. my girlfriends folks passed quite a few years back and the only ones left in my family are my mom and i so just the three of us chillin!! watched the raiders beat the dog snot out of the chiefs, that was probably the best part of my xmas!!! hehe
and with the downtime i got in some much needed gardening!!!
i hope your new year starts out just as good and your relaxation train keeps on rollin!!!!!!!
sounds like my kind of coach!!!!when in doubt, gas it!!!!!!!
those are all good ones and i'm using em this weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!
just expect excessive problems!!! so fuckin true!!! i own an XJ and i can vouch for that one!!! and i'm gonna have a blast with that "great more crap" tomorrow when my buddy pulls his gmc in my garage for a quick interior detail!!! i'll have a cloth in my hand and as he's pulling in i'll start polishing the gmc emblem and as soon as he steps out i'll say it!!!!! before even hey man, how you doin??... nope i'm rolling with great, more crap!!! hahahaha
ah man i'm stealing those ford one too!!!!!
the only honda motor i own is a pressure washer. every few years i change the oil and adjust the valves, i'm pretty sure that 20 year old motor will still outlast me!!!!!
.

i'm very happy i upcanned those plants yesterday... in one day i can already see an improvement in them all!! i realized i didn't do a good job packing the soil in the airpots tight enough, between that and all the dunking it eroded the soil out and was also holding back the plants. the roots didn't look bad though, they seemed bright white and not frail...
View attachment 36022
but they have full room to roam now!!!!! i sprinkled them all with just under a quart each today. i noticed about 3/4" of growth from yesterday, and it was all good green stem growth, not red. onwards and upwards!!!
i pretty much cleaned out my soil supply and only have seed starter left so i ordered a couple more bags of stonington from GGMi they weren't on sale but were still only $5 more per bag then what i paid for them on sale and still more than $25 bag cheaper than what i can even buy from anywhere around here that i'm willing to drive to so no complaints from me!!!!! they'll be here tomorrow already.. along with a 12lb bag of neptunes crab n lobster shell, i got that from prime though, it was cheaper there. i noticed the crab and lobster has a higher NPK than the og plain crab shell. i didn't notice that the first time i bought the crab n lobster mix! only $32 for the bag and not in the bucket.. i already have a bucket and it's not like you can use it for much else with it being stained with the smell of crab!!! hehehe
have a great weekend everybody!!!! i gotta do some squishin so i can smoke it all sunday night and pass out again before the ball even drops!

You landed that new gig, may as well show up in a new rig, right?Cybertruck is ugly and polarizing enough for me to want one but not anytime soon. Gladiator has been a great rig, also ugly and polarizing, but been a total beast when SHTF weather-wise and off road. I'm trying hard not to trade up as they are blowing out '23s right now lol.
Absolutely not as ugly as the cybertruck..You landed that new gig, may as well show up in a new rig, right?
The gladiators are sick rigs man, i don't think theyre at all ugly they remind me of the old Comanches which were absolute tanks
