I'm my doctor's worst nightmare. Today's batch: Sourdough shortbread chocolate chunk cookies. I'm glad I've got coworkers to foist some of these off on or my wife and I would be pouring on pounds like an Irish man pours on the whiskey.

:lol: That does look closer to nachos than chili. Something simple to hit a craving this morning. Butter fried beef franks. Yellow mustard, ketchup and a jalapeno spiked pickle spear. Breakfast of champions!

As much as I'm for enhancements in chili, that's a bit much. I'll typically just toss a little more blue cheese in, some hot sauce, and maybe, if I'm feeling catty, some crushed doritos. But that looks like the extras are dominating the bowl.

That looks tasty. I find most chili benefits from a bit of dark chocolate or chocolate liquor. I'm also a fan of melting in some blue cheese in the early part of the cook.

Sourdough caocao bean scones: Raw caocao beans give a nice fruity chocolate overtone without overpowering the creaminess of the base scone. My coworkers are thrilled. The company health nazi is not. :lol:

I think I'm getting the hang of this sourdough thing. I'd like a nice bread lame (dough knife) for cutting patterns, but the rest of it I'm fairly happy with. I have a full grain rye (pumpernickel) starter that just started bubbling yesterday, so I'll be producing a dark loaf in a week or two...

These were sweet, but they had a sourdough base so it wasn't quite the normal cinnamon roll sweetness. The frosting balanced really well against the ever so slight acidity in the sourdough portion and the sugar cinnamon mix really just brought it all together.

Apparently they've given up on that part.

Cool. My chili uses local beef too. A coworker's husband raises cattle and pigs so I get fresh beef a few times a year from them and freeze what doesn't get used right away. This morning's production (technically started last night as it's an overnight rise): Took some in to work so me and...

Reveal: It's an Orange Stamp. Got it super cheap in an open box sale. MrDowntown was pretty close as supposedly it sits between a Micro Terror and a Dark Terror tone wise. Without a boost it's a very loose/doomy sounding thing, but with a boost and lowered amp gain it's a very nice fit for my...

One of you may be on to something, while the other may be on something. ;)

That chili looks delicious. We had a skillet chili last week that I used the last of it on hot dogs with some shredded aged cheddar. Shoulda snapped pics. It was amazing.

Got a new amp. Wanna see what people think it is before I reveal it. This is active pickups, TS-7 set to TS-9 mode with the drive barely on, the level cranked and the tone just over noon, the new amp, into a mesa widebody, mic'ed with an e906 and an m160. This is just me futzing with it and...

Man, I need to get me some good steak again. It's been too long. Sourdough buns: One split open for tasting: Last batch of these was used for sammiches and burgers. For the burgers we'd split them open, butter them, then lay them in a pan until well seared, toss the burgers in while...

IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH CANADIAN GOOSES THEN YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH ME AND I SUGGEST YOU LET THAT MARINATE! Letterkenny has some of the best dialog of any comedy in decades. The one liners and the jokes flow so fast you sometimes have to rewind as you're laughing over the result of one...

Considering what those ass-hats did to A Song of Ice and Fire, a dumpster fire level story to start with might be a better fit for them.

Messican 'za: Refried beans and salsa as the base, taco meat, cheese. After this it got plated and topped with lettuce, tomato, salsa, black olives, sour cream and crushed doritos. Yummers. Sourdough: And the ridiculousness that is sourdough smoked gouda grilled cheese: Buttered both...

The soup was a little salty, but good otherwise. The sourdough starter needed to be split this morning during its feeding, so I used it to make butter biscuits. Didn't think to take a pic. Essentially, flour, baking soda, salt, butter stirred until crumbled, sourdough starter. Mixed until...

Started a sourdough starter Monday. It overflowed the jar yesterday and had to be transported into something bigger. Duh. Should have seen that one coming. The plan is a to make sourdough this weekend, and keep the starter going to make bagels and/or smaller loaves next week. Todays agenda...
