His happy songs are incredible. His sad songs cut to the bone. His melancholy was relatable

Keep it spicy

Making a habit of opening Bluesky first. Had a dinner table convo about deplatforming from Meta. 10 years of data collection being downloaded (which is taking longer than usual). Always interesting how creepy the Meta export is. #thefinalstraw

Beautiful disaster. This #southernillinois ice storm reminds me of Georgia. Lost power for a bit but no worse for wear. Going to be a drive through chandelier with these sub zero temps. More snow on the way

Went in to water and feed the garden last night and get out the Sunday crazies after the holiday break away from the office.

Quartered and smoked regionally harvested turkey with some grill marks and dark red smokey tint

Homemade deviled eggs dusted with paprika on a platter made just for this dish

One of my favorite holidays despite the origins. A Belgian friend just reminded me that there are very few holidays that are just food and chill centric like Thanksgiving.

Smoked local turkey and deviled eggs. Not pictured gf cornbread dressing.

Grilled okra is surprisingly good too.

Stewed Okra and Tomatoes with some white rice and black pepper would be my last meal if I had the luxury
