Happy Sunday Nor-Cal. The weather guessers predict rain today, but, only between the hours of 9am and 11am. The hours I will be at church providing security. Guess I'll take my umbrella and cover the scooter's controls with a Walmart bag.

Dry, but foggy up here.

The Chiefs wins are getting more and more "squeaky". They may get the stuper-bowl this year, but it smells like they're near the end of their dynasty.

Good morning Football Fans!

37° and cloudy, they are predicting rain this morning. We still have a little snow left in the yard but it's going fast.

Rob from the City, Good looking ribs, so what the trick? I've only cooked ribs once and they didn't turn out all that well.

Rain & snow flurries in the forecast , it might be a white Christmas after all , my grandson should be thrilled, after feeding Cows that is , hopefully the Elk herd is back in the pasture, they came through a couple weeks ago so it’s bout time again , they chase the cows off so monitoring that situation while feeding, nothing like feeding the forest animals too 60+ head of Elk consume ALot of forage .

Preheat oven. Make sure that your roasting pan is deep enough that grease doesn't spill out into the oven. 1 or 2 racks of ribs will cook at the same time. You can cook 4 racks with 2 pans. I use salt and pepper. You can use whatever spices you like.


Use a rack to elevate the ribs off the bottom of the pan. Cover with foil. 300 degrees Fahrenheit. 3 hours. Take foil off. Brush with sauce. 15 more minutes to finish the sauce. Remove from oven and rest at least 30 minutes before cutting.

The "rain" was nothing more than a few sprinkles. Which is good because it would have limited my ability to do the volunteer work at church today.
I am in the mood for a mushroom and cheese omelet. Unfortunately, the cheese is in the freezer. So, I will have to wait for it to thaw.
Anyone visiting relatives this Christmas? I'm staying home as all my immediate family have passed away. I have a nephew in Arizona, but we are both are too broke to make the drive to visit. Maybe by next Christmas I will trust the POS enough to drive 600 miles.

Thanks, but I am okay. Not one for going out much anyway. The truck is technically running, and the trans works, and brakes, etc., Some of my credit card bills will be paid off early next year which will give me some breathing room financially. Then it is just a matter of time before I can get caught up on the truck upgrades/fixes I want to do.

I like ribs, but the SO isn't so hot on them, so I only get ribs when we visit someone else.

Haven't gotten that much rain since we got almost an inch last Monday. Rumor is we'll get some more this week.

OTOH, we've been having an inversion, so it's been warm up here on the mountain.

Beef ribs are on the menu for Monday Night Football. Technically, what I have is a plate of chuck ribs. Not the plate ribs from under the prime rib roast. So it's the 2, 3, 4, and 5 bones. Not the 6, 7, 8, and 9 bones. Slow roasting on a bed of onions, carrots, and celery. The star of the show will be the pan drippings.
