Probably the best pulled pork I’ve made. It was outstanding

Baloney sammich on sourdough, with lettuce, velveeta cheese, mayo and mustard. Combined with some Cheetohs. Washed down with Coke Zero.
Don’t be jealous, not everyone can be this fancy.

Rummaging around in the freezer my wife found a small roast. She decided to make vegetable soup with it. The roast spent 5 hours in the crockpot with a little butter and onions to get it tender. Then she added potatoes, quartered whole (canned) tomatoes, carrots, green beans, corn, and celery.

Normally she uses russet potatoes but since we freeze/thaw the leftovers they get soft. So this time she used fingerling potatoes and left the skin on. Best batch she's made yet! We'll see in a month or so how the potatoes do when thawed.

Casey’s pizza. Pretty damn good pizza, even if it is from a gas station.

Get the thin crust. It’s still ok cold. But cold pizza is meh to begin with.

And at least around here, they do NOT understand ratios. MORE toppings are NOT better. The last one I had I specifically ordered LIGHT beef, NO Italian sausage. They seemed to not get that, I swear they doubled them both. Which, is why the one I got last night was free. I’ve gotten a few free ones because they are dumb. I’ve realized now, don’t make it hard. Order something simple and they get it right.

We went to a winery for dinner. I had sea bass and red pepper risotto. Wife had the chicken carbonara. Didn't take any pics of the food but I did take a pic of the view. The mighty Tuscarawas river.

The honeyberry was excellent, everyone that tried it said make more, I will fiddle with some of the raspberries this week, supposed to let it sit for 6 weeks.
