The national news is good at stirring up panic to a new level. The make it sound like half of Colorado is burning up but it is good to hear your place is not in danger. Sort of like when we have a hurricane or flood down in Texas, I have people call me and ask if everything is OK (even if the event is 500 miles away). Keep an eye on the fires and be careful. <br /><br />I liked your tuna salad, but SR300's smoked pork makes me hungry.agg79https://www.blogger.com/profile/08925069219602681862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-29734066955326740732012-06-27T02:18:37.338-06:002012-06-27T02:18:37.338-06:00In recent years we have had a few what the local p...In recent years we have had a few what the local press calls "forest fires" near us. The way people talk about them you would think the whole town was in danger of being engulfed. In reality there is just an acre or two that got a bit scorched - not even enough fire to make a smoke cloud! People need to get a grip and realise what people like you are facing!<br /><br />Foodwise - one thing that goes down will with my lot is a fill your own wraps session - cold meats, salad, cheese, sauces, etc. Maybe add some nachos and salsa. And a bottle of tequilla?Rock Chefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11259561583833857901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-50300815658957411262012-06-26T22:17:21.816-06:002012-06-26T22:17:21.816-06:00I like grilled burgers best of all.

And though I'm relieved it didn't come here, I'm angry that it's actually gone east, and is dumping rain where rain isn't needed. I don't know why the weather is so damned unfair, but I cannot help but be disappointed with God about it, really. Is is so much to ask of our omnipotent Creator to send rain where rain is needed, at least on occasion--to perform a desperately needed miracle?Scotthttp://solosocial.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-86163991146376911732012-06-26T21:28:05.272-06:002012-06-26T21:28:05.272-06:00Well since you asked ME, I have two words: Smoked...Well since you asked ME, I have two words: Smoked Pork. <br />From the looks of your pics, you don't even need a smoker. :/<br />I sure hope Colorado doesn't burn down before we get to visit it. I'll be praying for rain for you all every day.

I'd be too scared to cook or go to sleep.<br /><br />We're retired from the fire department and the biggest enemy is wind. How is that doing? I'm feeling anxious for you.lotta joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742978845913126675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-71554899220171152392012-06-26T17:25:15.626-06:002012-06-26T17:25:15.626-06:00Scary fires!

And in summer time, I make big use of the grill. But since that's not an option for you, I'm going to suggest my second favorite cooking appliance - the CROCK POT! Throw some meat in there in the a.m. Add a little liquid. Turn on low. Cook for 8 hours or so and voila! Dinner! <br /><br />I have good luck with pork and beef roasts. Never cook them from frozen. They turn out best when they're fully defrosted first. Country style ribs and barbecue sauce are also a good option, though the sauce gets too runny for my liking.<br /><br />p.s. I have NOT continued to do so well with my cooking resolution. I manage to cook a decent meal maybe once or twice a week.terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12510457113017189354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-83123641624882265572012-06-26T17:06:46.957-06:002012-06-26T17:06:46.957-06:00I CAN NOT IMAGINE!

As beautiful and varied as our country is, I may have lucked out to be born in Virginia where acts of nature are minimal.<br /><br />Okay, so we've had a few hurricanes, an earthquake, some floods... hmmm...<br /><br />Still, it seems less drama here.<br /><br />July 16, huh? Hang in there. Blessings to you and the family and the rest of Colorado.<br /><br />Oh, I love loaded veggie sandwiches on Pita or flatbread with cheese and hummus. But, there comes a time when I've GOT to have meat! Good luck.Anitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08180243708565855383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-57469189511575570682012-06-26T10:53:47.019-06:002012-06-26T10:53:47.019-06:00Lol I've had that moment before, when I wake u...Lol I've had that moment before, when I wake up out of bed and I think it smells like really well cooked bacon and eggs, only to look out and see a fire across the street :s.D.Shawntehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09169986706380991564noreply@blogger.com
