Having completed a triple-batch of vindaloo paste & marinading cubed beef for cooking tomorrow, I decided to channel my inner-Womble & create a quadruple batch of Sambal Bajak (after a fashion....:D).

Currently cooking-down & concentrating....... should last for several years once I've hot-packed it into jars (currently sterilising in the oven).

The smell is intense & intoxicating.View attachment 5010591

Exposed fiberglass, overall mega nasty mess everywhere.
Regardless of how it smells/tastes I don't think I could bring myself to eat that after seeing where it was made

Caught a buzz, went outside and was working on grapevine bed when I saw a familiar face galumphing down the road with something long wrapped in canvas. It was the kid I had picked up ( bartered for) an 1862 Tower rifle from. This time he had another rifle, a mid 19th century " breech loader". These rifles eventually went to the wayside during civil war ( repeating rifles). Have no idea yet what the f I got.....I like it..........In exchange for the breech loader.......... block and tackle, micrometer and a Pyrex condenser joint. I threw in some Chocolope ( wanna keep him coming back) .

I surely hope the rifle isn't hot.......this fella has an 1862 Norwich black powder long rifle. The firing mechanism is in great shape and the original ramrod intact ( ramrods usually gone).....It's a beautiful piece. He left the rifle here once so I could look it over and take some pics.....I just couldn't craft the right package to barter with , but I will . The rifle seems 12ft long, quite a load to hold up, steady and shoot. It needs some buffing up !

i changed the oil in my girlfriends car, and the dealership that did it last stripped the plug...and didn't say shit about it. i had to get a new plug, and it still has a slow oozing leak, i'm not sure if i can replace the helicoil spring in the drain hole, or if we'll just have to get a new drain pan eventually...fucking "professionals"...professional fuck ups......

Got all the stuff on the counter washed and pre washed the silverware and loaded the dishwasher, helps to have an operational sink. Daughter did a drive by with the grandkids and dropped off stuff she brought down from the MIL's house. Planted the turnips, going to have to transplant some because it is a pain to distribute tiny seeds. Need to bring in the plumeria soon, the boonie pepper is inside already. BLT's for dinner because I still have some T's. Took out some stew meat to thaw for some stew sometime and picked up some beans for chili. I'm done now.

Oh and I'd be forever grateful if you'd bring a few T's with you.

I think I got food poisoning from the photos.

I studied the ancient art of Tantric Botulism from a 7th-Dan sensei in a disgustingly dirty cave in the Himalayas. Needless to say, it was both enlightening & emetically cathartic at the same time. My culinary life has never been the same since.

I've also crossed unwashed knives with a celebrity/filmic deity by the name of Chuck Chunda. It was a tough gig, but definitely opened-up the sluices at both ends & provided a whole new meaning to "God".
