Southern Roots

Post contributed by Leonard Phelps

Being from the south meant I was really close to my family so when my wife got the job of a lifetime out here in Vegas it was a pretty scary proposition. I was worried to death that things would be so incredibly different out here and we’d never adjust but to be honest, other than the lack of trees and grass things aren’t all that dissimilar to being at home in the south! Housing is so cheap out here so we found a great place and have adt security las vegas and the two car garage and all that stuff we’ve been wanting forever. I can’t imagine a way of life that doesn’t include time outdoors with my kids and this is actually a really great city for that. There’s lots of hiking and day trips and places to explore that aren’t far away and even my wife is loving her new job which is good enough for me. There’s nothing I would do for some good southern cooking though!

Willy wants a Telescope!

Willy is cooking up some real time looking beyond the eye with some great Telescopes.  A good Telescope is something that Willy has always wanted since he was a small child.  Willy has now turned 60 and it is time for Willy to get his telescope.



That is why Willy has started researching the world wide web for sites that have great telescopes for sale .
That is when Willy has found that there are many types, quality, and kinds of instruments.  Now Willy has to really study to see which one and kind that he wants.   That is where skiesunlimited.net comes in to play.  This site has a lot of information and has the availability of great instruments that Willy can study and decide which one is right for Willy.

So, if you are like Willy and you want that telescope that you should have had when you were a kid, then maybe you need to follow Willy's lead and get on the internet and find the one that you want.

That is what is cooking up with Willy today.

Willy likes watches.  Willy was given a watch for his 8th grade graduation and Willy remembers that gift like it was yesterday.  Well, now Willy  likes great new chronograph watches

Do you like watches like Willy likes watches.  Wow! That sounds like the line to a song.

Willy wonders why Willy likes watches so much?  What is it that fascinates Willy.  Watches seem to loosing out to cell phones for time keeping across the younger demographics.  Willy thinks that is crazy because Willy knows what it takes to make a watch special?  To Willy it is the tech inside of that great watch? Yes, it is the mechanism along with the fact that many times some great person  gave that watch to Willy?  Those are the things that make a watch special to Willy.

So, if you like watches like Willy likes watches, then you need to get over to bluedial.com.  There is where Willy and you can find a great watch at a great price.  You can then keep the watch give the watch or just sit around being proud of the great watch.  What do you think?

Cooking was about Food

Lots of Family in this past weekend and rather than writing this blog, life was really about food and people.

Nine people were in the house most of the time and everytime Willy turned around eating was happening again.  Two of these people were less than two years old and a wonderful challenge.

Willy did not write or even look at a computer.  Willy and Mrs. Willy was just cooking.

Arkansas Razorbacks - Week 4

What is cooking for the Hogs this week.  Alabama is tough and we looked like a bunch of pussy's against Troy.  If the Razorbacks play like that against Alabama it will be a hog slaughter.  You can hear them circling the drain now.

Arkansas should be better.  Before the season started fans felt like we would be great against Alabama.  Now people like Tommy Smith, David Bazzel, Roger Scott  and R.J. Hawk are making bets where they will shave their head depending on who wins, Arkansas or Alabama.

Willy believes that Arkansas will get beat big time even though Willy likes the Hogs.

That is what is cooking with the Hogs this week.

Rnovating your home

Guest written by our friend Mason Abbott For all of you out there who are considering redoing your home, great! I think it’s an awesome idea and I’ve been remaking houses for years but I’ve got a few suggestions that I’ve learned along the way that I’m going to share in hopes of making your whole process easier. First of all, you’ve got to find a contractor you trust and stick with them. Use your www.satellitestarinternet.com internet to look up recommended ones in your area or ask friends, but don’t skip this step. After that, you’ve got to set a really realistic budget. I see people go into a house that needs 50k worth of work and say they can do it for 20…you can’t! Things are going to be more expensive than you think so set a budget then double it. Lastly you’ve got to be on the job as much as possible. Even if you trust your contractor you can’t be at work 12 hours a day and expect everything to get done on time. Monitor, monitor, monitor, that’s what I always say!

STRAIGHT TALK - AUGUST

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Straight Talk for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

• I love the idea that I feel richer with Straight Talk because I cut my cell phone bill in half. You have to be crazy to be on a contract these days when you can get everything you need without one.  So call a friend or maybe mom knows best because of the fact that Straight Talk has such good plans and money saving ideas that there should be money left over at the end of the month to cook up some great electronics deals.

So, they are cooking up the idea that there are no contracts, no surprise bills and no credit checks. All of that with the idea that htere is great nationwide coverage they say that the reception is excellent.  Last but not least is the fact that  Straight Talk only uses trusted phone manufacturers like LG, Motorola, Kyocera, Nokia and Samsung.

Ok!  You add all of that with the fact that they have various great plans, 411 calls which are included at no extra charge, and all of this is free from activation, reactivation, or termination fees and you have a great deal.  Oh yes, Straight Talk has an  International Long Distance Service that is a flexible prepaid calling service that enables you to make international calls from your home, cell or office phone at low rates.

How can you beat all of that?  Watch this video and you will get a great feel for this service.

Glazed Double-Cut Pork Chops

Willy stole this one from the Food Network.   - The Maple Bourbon Glaze caught Willy 's eye.  The chops will have to be good but if not the Bourbon can be made useful.  10-4 Willy


Recipe courtesy of Food Network Magazine

Directions

Serve with Smoky Corn on the Cob.

Ingredients

For the Pork:

• Kosher salt
• 1/4 cup coarsely ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
• 4 double-cut bone-in pork loin chops (about 1 pound each)
• Vegetable oil, for the grill

For the Sauce:

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 cups diced onions
• 1 cup apple cider vinegar
• 3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
• 1 1/2 cups ketchup
• 1 1/4 cups apple juice
• 1 cup maple syrup
• 1/2 cup bourbon
• 1/2 cup prunes
• 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• Kosher salt and freshly ground
• black pepper

Prepare the pork: Mix 2 tablespoons salt, the black pepper, brown sugar and paprika in a bowl, then rub all over the chops. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate 2 to 4 hours.

Meanwhile, make the sauce: Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, then add the onions and cook until translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and brown sugar until dissolved. Add the ketchup, apple juice, syrup, bourbon, prunes, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 30 minutes. Puree with an immersion blender or in a regular blender.
Preheat a grill to medium. Brush the grates with vegetable oil, then place the chops directly over the flame and grill until marked and cooked halfway through, about 15 minutes. Turn the chops and place on a cooler area of the grill (such as the edges); cover and cook until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 140 degrees F to 145 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes. Uncover and brush the chops on all sides with the prepared sauce, then cover and cook until glazed, about 5 more minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and brush with more sauce. Tent with foil and let rest 10 minutes. Serve with more sauce.
