Dear Friends. 😂😂

Please accept my sincere apologies for not being able to attend your birthdays or any events, As you know, my passion is boating and spending as much time aboard as we can.

The short Cape Ann boating season and the high costs associated with the boat to sit idle (unused for a weekend) requires me to say no to all non boating events planned during this boating season.

Please don’t take this personally, but I hope you understand my formal summer weekend policy. If you would like to move your special events after Oct 15th and before May 15th, I would be happy to attend.

I hope you respect my position, as I respect yours selecting a date that ruins summer weekend plans which everyone is dreading going to anyways.

Knowing that you will not change the date to accommodate my schedule, please find enclosed a check as a gift.

Bananas. We were pretty lucky to have this guy for all those years.

If You’re serious About BBQ and Don’t Have a proper Boning Knife You’re Doing Yourself A disservice

Joey Ciaramitaro's avatarNortheast BBQ

A boning knife makes trimming any large cut of beef infinitely easier.

I finally bought one after always using different, inferior for the job, knives.

Let me tell you it’s an absolute game changer.

I got a 5 inch Victorinox Boning Knife just ahead of the holidays to trim the Bone-In Roasts we enjoyed Christmas eve and Christmas Day.

Total game changer. Made short work and the agility it affords you with the shape and flexibility can not be understated.

It may seem like a silly thing but once you use one you’ll be totally aggravated when trying to trim a brisket , pork butt, tenderloin or roast without one.

Trust me on this one, you 100% should have one in your knife drawer if you do any amount of breaking down or trimming large cuts of meat.

Trying My Hand At Overnight Oats

Last night I put rolled oats, chia seeds, strawberries, sliced almonds, raspberries and oat milk in a jar.

Assembly last night
Overnight results

I’ll report back on the taste.

Here’s a good article about he benefits of Overnight Oats From Bob’s Red Mill

Update:

OK so I just tried the first batch.

It was OK. Felt good eating it but a little lacking in flavor and sweetness. I may add a little honey drizzle next time.

I do feel satisfied though and ready to tackle the day and Pickleball. 😄

adult Herring Gull at the Jodrey State Fish Pier From Steven Lieb

An adult Herring Gull at the Jodrey State Fish Pier late in the afternoon. Unfortunately there was no light at that time because it had become dull.
The Herring Gull’s webbed foot on the left side has been lifeless, but this bird is alive and kicking.
