What do you do with those pepper 🌶️

Very good question 🤔
My honest answer at this time is
Part of a large inventory of sterling silver jewelry, beads, handicrafts that I bought in SE Asia in 1992-1993.
Put it all in storage in on Mother's day 1994.
Came to the realization that I was going to be poor, and would be flogging it for years.
Retail was not my thing.
So I headed down the road of scrap recycling.
Retired after 13yrs.
Yet this inventory has sat in storage for 30yrs.
Gee I can start flogging it as vintage.

Yes vintage is hot. I collect beads and use them for decorative purposes in my frames of point's 2024 so far. I’d like some of those blue beads you have.

Hope it doesn't have legs of a Great Dane.
Majority of the storm is tracking south of us, less snow is good.

Im trying to recall, effort for me, but didn't Aerosmith, Steve, get so wasted he came on stage and after the first song thought it was actually the last one and said goodnight thanks for coming and walked off!? I know he fell off stage once, but was my recollection right?

Naw....you're confusing him with me. I was the one who fell off the stage.

What a day!

7:15 I find my son left the drunk of moms car open last night, killed the battery. Gotta take em to school in the old truck.

9:30 I’m installing a $2,200 set of French doors to find the factory screwed up the hinge placement, that cost me a couple hours of screwing around.

11:30 brother calls, our other service vans broken down. Needs a tow. He’s dead in the water, that’ll set us back a bit.

Gotta drive 40 mins away to pick up the job trailer he was pulling.

4:30 flat tire. Picked up a nail somewhere, plugged it laying in the rain.

Just got home and daughters sick.

Supposed to go to the Rodeo tonight and I just wanna go to bed!

Great full I’m alive and pressing forward but dang let’s wrap this day up and start agin tomorrow!

We see that stuff here on our news station, things just sucked up into the air!
That would be terrifying seeing one coming and not knowing who its gonna hit. Stay safe.

Good morning all. It's just above freezing outside this morning. But the plants know warmer weather is coming. The cherry trees are just starting to blossom. Sorry for the blurry pic but it's the best I got with the fence in the way. (The fence is so those deer that come for breakfast every morning don't have the trees for dessert....)

 

[CreekSide]

Good morning everyone
I hope you have a great weekend
