Albertsons dominates my area with Safeway & Lucky stores. The sale this week is bottom round. $1.99 per lb. An entire primal cut of beef, in the cryovac bag. They sell it to you, the same way they get it from the slaughterhouse. I bought 1. Now I have to butcher it myself. It can't be that hard.
The 2nd Amendment allows us the right to bear arms, so that we can be free of government tyranny and oppression. One of the people named for recall is a person I know. I'm going to send an e-mail asking if they are afraid of an armed revolt at the next School Board meeting. There you have the truth. 1 of them is a personal acquaintance, and even I won't support their tyranny and oppression.
I remember when I was a kid growing up in Whittier. Dad would buy a while cow every now and then (or was it half a cow?) and our freezer would be full of meat for a whole month. It was already pre cut so we didn't have to butcher it ourselves, but it was a large amount of meat that usually took a month to finish off.
I'm not there yet. Buying whole and 1/2 cows is 1 step beyond my needs. I don't have a freezer for that. For now, I will stick with buying cuts in cryovac. I can easily cut my own steaks and roasts. And I can buy all the cheap pieces.
Well, we were a family of four back then, so the meat was perfect, and our freezer was a separate unit outside in the shed. Big enough for a whole cow.
Mid afternoon and it's less than 60°. Where's the heatwave?
In California, the heat wave doesn't start until you get up around Clearlake. Most of the Bay Area is outside of the heat zone; especially San Francisco.

No sun all day. Just a cool fog. No wonder I can't get anything good to grow successfully. I saw a YouTube video on "replanting" scraps. After St. Patrick's Day, I put my cabbage scraps into the ground. No heads of cabbage grew. Just a stalk, some leaves, and flowers. I did the same thing with carrots. Only carrot top greens and flowers. I tried the same with celery. Only a stalk, a few leaves, and flowers. Tomato seeds left on the cutting board will germinate into a few plants. By my calculation, I get 1 plant out of 100 seeds. Okay since I don't do anything to save and dry the seeds, just cut the tomato, and scrape the seeds on the cutting board off onto the dirt. I don't even bother to dig a hole to plant them. Once they flower, either they don't set fruit, or the tomato that set never really get big & red. Then the birds come and peck into them before they ever get a chance to grow and ripen.
