  • Great skill! My wife has been cooking her entire life and now she cans all of our vegetables but has expanded into fruit drink mixes, pig fat, stocks, etc. the benefit is that what she cooks now is better than most restaurants. She has the gift of just knowing what should go together so she can whip anything together. She enjoys it which makes it so much better. Nothing like TLC in foot prep to make things taste even better. I can’t even put together how much we’ve saved by not eating out. Although, we do like to break down whatever we’re having cost wise vs how much it would’ve cost at a nice restaurant. Anyway, all that to say, you made a wise choice and I’m sure it’s already paid off.














  • First thing I got told when I moved from NoVA to CO as a manager was people work to play. That has proven true time and time again. Snows a lot, everyone calls out and hits the slopes. Gorgeous day and they’ve just recently stocked a favorite fishing spot? Calls out to fish. Hunting season and got one of the lottery elk tags? Puts vacation in or unpaid time off since they’re extremely hard to get and goes off trying to bag and elk ok the western slope. Recently upgraded your Jeep? They’re definitely taking it off road on a mountain trail stat. Yeah, we have a ton of fun out here.


  • There are places on the US that have a similar thing going on. I can get my fiber from 2 ISPs, same line. I can also turn it off or on when I want and I can pay month to month on either. However, this is super rare here.

    The real problem is that the US has allowed corporations to make laws and basically run the infrastructure. We need some serious lobbying overhaul or outright ban and lawmakers and judges to have a damn backbone to those with $. It’s ridiculous.
