It's generally a deal for me.  It's also possible I drink too much on cruises... :)

Right now the cruise lines are offering extra enticements for obvious reasons.  I saw a flyer for Norwegian where they're offering FREE open bar to all passengers on all destinations in all cabins. 
Is that really possible?

I don't have to board a large boat to drink too much

I guess we're weird to go on a cruise and not drink, given we are NOT teetotalers normally.  We also use the gym.

The piano was delivered this AM.  My left hand in particular is really weak, it was starting to cramp up, and I can't play much at all now.  Take some patience.

This is why I am sure to switch my beer-holding hand regularly, don't want any atrophy just because I favored holding my beer with one hand over the other.

Did lamb burgers and roasted butternut squash on Saturday.

I normally don't mix things into my usual burger blends (opting for seasoning on the surface and burger toppings to do the rest), but for this I minced up some kalamata olives and some red onion and put them into the patties. I then hit both sides with some John Henry's greek seasoning, and grilled them.

The wife made tzatziki and the butternut squash, and we served with a little more red onion, tomato, and spinach.

It wasn't the best picture, but the meal came out wonderfully.

I think I've mentioned it on this site; my wife has a poultry allergy. Oddly the egg portion of it (which affected her as a child) is no longer an issue, but any grown bird protein will cause her major issues. Thankfully nothing life-threatening, but I don't want to hold her hair back for 5 hours, which is what it would come down to.

Now, normally that's not a problem. While chicken is in a LOT of things, and it cuts out many restaurant soup dishes made with chicken stock, I generally find that chicken is used as a protein in a lot of recipes because it's bland [particularly white meat] and because it's cheap. And vegetable stock is an excellent substitute for chicken stock in soup, risotto, etc.

So missing out on chicken really isn't missing much. Except, of course, for fried chicken. Fried chicken is its own little bit of heaven, and she has never had it.

So I made it for her! Everything about the method, the breading, the frying, etc was exactly as one would do for fried chicken, except the chicken. I used 1.5" thick medallions of pork tenderloin instead. Recipe was Serious Eats Southern Fried Chicken.

And it worked! What I ended up with was capturing the essence of what makes fried chicken wonderful, but without the use of any bird. It wasn't a perfect attempt (the pork itself bordered on overcooked), yet it was still freakin' delicious. Definitely going to be made again.

Pork tenderloin is more akin to the dark meat of the fried chicken, of course... But I prefer the dark meat pieces anyway.

Yeah, I try to work in the 16oz cans instead of the 12oz quite a bit too... Sometimes adding weight over reps will help build the muscle.

If we're making predictions, I'll guess the Dow hits ~24K before it hits a new high.

Secondary guess. If it falls to 22K, QE5 is announced and we're off to the races again.
nailed it


didn't see the oil market being a major cause
