The Miracle Tank

Yeah, Rockford's water, both supply and aquifer, ain't exactly the best.

When I first moved here, first thing I was told when they hooked up the meter was "Don't drink this stuff, we got a violation for Radium this year"...

Inspiring...

I wonder if you can get them in leather, thinking for a friend?!

Why not make this have a little personal style? @najer I'm thinking the metal studs might scratch.

You have me thinking, apparently carbon can filter the virus!
I have never had a complaint about a stud that scratched!

Don't be shy with that powdered sugar. They pile it on at Cafe DuMonde. I have been involved in a couple of late-night powdered sugar fights there. The losers are readily noticeable! LOL!

@Fin Day off tomorrow, teaching my daughter how to make beignets!!

Beignets??? Love those bloody things. Hard to get in Northern Cali sadly...but I do pick them up when I visit Disneyland on Main Street.

Morning all!!! Got in trouble with the wife last night. Brought a hairy blenny home, 50 or so red legged hermits and 5 unknown hermits. The 5 unknowns are massive lol. Gonna look them up today. Also got some more snails, but those are ok and not in trouble for them.
