What are some of the best purchases of your life?
  • Breville Espresso Machine: never would have bought one but we ended up with a bunch of gift cards. If you like coffee this makes such a difference.

    Lynda.com/LinkedIn learning account: Keeping with your $0 library theme. Most libraries have had a partnership with online learning services. Used to by Lynda.com but is now LinkedIn Laarning. Search your library + linked in learning for login. I use it to learn so many skills!

    Wusthof Knives: I like cooking. These aren’t the fanciest knife by far but they are solid. Combine them with sharpening stones and a honing steel and it is such a treat to cut the things you cook.

    New socks: I don’t buy them as often as I want, or should have you ask my wife but, if I won the lotto my rich guy asshole Move would be new socks each week.

    5th Wheel: I don’t have it anymore but when we moved out of one state we sold everything and bought a used rv (only after ensuring the espresso machine fit) and fixed it up. We traveled for 10 months around the US with two kids and two dogs, just to do it. We worked as we went. It was crazy and chaotic and wonderful and I cherish all the moments. I love the small nested world it becomes. We finally settled down and sold it but I still think about doing it again.

    Thanks for sharing yours!

  • Peruvian Chicken
  • Hey sure.

    -Whole Chicken -4tsp Kosher Salt -2 Tbsp Ground Cumin -2 Tbsp Ground Paprika -1 tsp Fresh Ground Pepper -3 Garlic Cloves, minced -2 Tbsp White Vinegar -2 Tbsp Oil

    Steps Dry chicken, Spatchcock (you can put a skewer horizontally through the thighs and breast to help it stay stable while turning), tuck wing tips, combine all the other ingredients and rub all over chicken. Heat the grill (keeping one side off or charcoal banked to one side) and when ready put chicken skin side up on the cooler side. Cool until about 110 F in the breast and then flip skin side down on hot side (point breasts to cool side). Cook until breasts read about 150, move to cooler side if burning. Let sit for about 5-10 tented with foil.

    I have done this in an oven as well. Higher heat maybe around 450f. Turned out great as well. I always serve this with green sauce. I despise Mayo but realize it is a necessary evil. If you like Mayo you can swap the Mayo/sour cream amounts.

    -3 jalepenos, chop -1 Tbsp Aji Amarillo (if you don’t have don’t let it stop you)

    • 1 cup cilantro -2 garlic cloves -1/2 cup sour cream -1/4 cup Mayo -2tsp lime juice -1 tsp white vinegar -2 tbsp olive oil
    • salt and pepper

    Put everything but oil in a blender and blend until smooth. Scrape it all down and slowly add oil, season with S&P to taste and cover in the fridge. This is best made first to let everything marry.

    Hope you have fun and enjoy.

  • It's Thursday. What are people planning to do this weekend?
  • Hope you have good weather for both. What do you like best at the zoo?

    Some yard work in good weather, a day trip with my son to some hikes and the coast, and then try to fly (not crash again) a plane my daughter and I 3D printed.
