What's up jungle mates, all this food talk is making a fat man hungry. Not much going on here. Finally got done trimming yesterday. Pressed 2 ounces of hash into rosin for my buddy, he left me with a few grams of some gorgeous rosin. I am going to be running a couple pounds of trim/larf in to hash, so I can get a good amount of rosin made. Befor the move. It's a pain to make small amounts.

Pop Rocks, glad to hear the harvest was good to you.

Fiddynuts, sounds like you are a big brewers fan. We used to go to a few angels games, gotta love a day at the ball field. We haven't been to a game in a couple years. We have taken the kids to the minor league we have locally.its a,lot of fun.

happening p'fan!
glad to hear things are well
so do you ahve to let the rosen cure before smoking or can you light it right up after making it?
will the new place have room for the press?

hope you are having a great weekend fiddy, be sure to enjoy every bite of all the great food, my man!
what are your plans for the savory yogurt?
yes, the cucumber sauce is like the kind they put on gyros
its a great flavor and goes really well with meats or just plain bread or crackers
i like the idea of adding other flavors to the mix, i will have to try that on of these days
what are your favorite seasonings to add in?
thanks for the baseball talk
i know what you mean about small market teams vs the big guys
every now and a teams puts together enough young talent and are competitive, i think the last few years have show that
/it was fun watching teams like the blue jays, KC etc make it in the post season

hope everyone is having a great weekend and enjoying their easter sunday

[packerfan79]

Hey jungle mates, happy Easter. Hope everyone is having an enjoyable holiday

Pop Rocks, we fire up the rosin whenever. If it's to sappy a few days at room temp it stabilizes some. Most of the hash rosin shatters within a few minutes. It flakes off the paper if it cold. The flower rosin is more sappy. Their is going to be a few nice slabs coming soon.

[pop_rocks]

hope you had a great easter too,brother
thanks for the info, p'fan
im not really up to speed on the dab scene but i have a friend who offers to take my larf/ trim
/unfortunately, the mrs likes her edibles so they usually go to her

[Fiddynut]

Happy turesday guys.

@packerfan. I made some bubble hash yesterday out of the last couple crops trimmings and larf. It's got a couple more days of drying to do before I know how good it turned out. Good luck on your hash making and rosin too. I'm going to be making some fresh canna butter for brownies on 4/20 for my coworkers. I'd say I'm a bigger fan of baseball than the other stick and ball sports. For sure you can't go wrong with minor league baseball, the guys are hungry and play hard. Plus the beer and hot dogs are more reasonable at the minor league parks.

@pop_rocks. The weekend went well brother. I found the yogart making to be really easy. I remembered that I have a water bath heater that keeps temps and water circulating in a cooler that I converted. It's usually used for suvee cooking but kept the water trig hit at 110 degrees for the 10 hours that I incubated it for. I made it in quart mason jars and they worked out really well. Ill defenatly make more of this in the future. That cucumber sauce sounds great, post up the recipe if you get a chance. Yes it seems like small market teams have a little bit of a disadvantage because of payroll but it forces you to do it right with young players and that more fun to watch. We are use to small market teams with the packers anyway. I hope your weekend was kick ass!

im glad to hear your yogurt turned out good
suvee cooking is all the rage right now
/if i could get one new kitchen gadget it would be one of those
a friend swears by her suvee bacon and it sounds so good
she says you just throw the whole package into the water and you are good to go
we used to drive out to arizona every spring to watch the padres spring training
i agree that the smaller parks are a lot more friendly and fun
plus its so much cheaper like you said
sounds like your 4/20 brownies are fast becoming a tradition, my man!
that is awesome and i hope everyone enjoys the fun!
hope your week is going great and you are doing well
is the injury all healed up?
happy spring brother!

Good afternoon pop_rocks.

I've had the suvee water heater and circular for 3 or 4 years now and I've used it a fair bit. I have made steaks and roasts with it and used it to reheat BBQ that was frozen or refrigerated. It is an interisting way to cook. I never thought of suvee bacon but it sounds delicious, I'll try it soon! You can get a water heat controller for about 130$ and I like to use an old cooler that I modified for the water tank. It holds plenty and keeps the temp very even with the insulation and all. Works great for pre cooking sausage before grilling too.

For sure minor league parks are great. The Brewers have a A-ball team about an hour and a half north of Milwaukee. It's great to go up there and see the new talent sometimes. I'd love to get to spring training in arazona sometime. The Brewers won on a walk off home run last night to go to 4-1 on the season.

Your right my brownies are becoming a tradition here at work. I like to do it and my coworkers seem to enjoy them. I'm sure at least one of them will try to eat a whole brownie and get really wasted as usual.

My toe injury is all healed and I've been hitting the cardio for about 30 min a day. I'm mostly riding the stationary bike still. My shoulder is still messed up so no upper body workouts still. I feel good about getting on the mountain bike this summer. Speaking of spring it's been hard to come by and good weather here. We got a couple inches of snow last night and I had to dig the car out of the garage again. It's been in the 30's during the day and down to about 20 at night. Not the spring that I was looking for. Maybe next week spring will get here LOL.

im glad to hear you are back on the exercise bike friend
while i dont really lift heavy anymore i used to love weight training
for now, my goal is to loose some weight and just feel fitter
i am still on track but the scale dosent really tell the whole story
stick with it man, im sure you are converting the fat to muscle and building up your cardio
i bet you are right about someone insisting on eating a whole brownie, there is always at least one in the crowd
i dog that they think of one brownie as a serving, but edibles are strong stuff
/i smoke daily and still show them the respect the deserve until i know what im messing with
we are having a cold snap here too fiddy
its been mild but really overcast, looks like may grey is a little early this year
i cant wait for the weekend
me and the mrs have a little adventure planned and it might rain on saturday
sounds like a great excuse to light up and just kick back!
hope you are having a great week brother! keep shinning!

Good afternoon pop_rocks.

I'm glad to be back on the bike too brother. That week I had to take off was strange I found myself missing the workouts a lot. For someone who never worked out untill this year it's odd that I'd miss them but I did. I do the bike most days and the elliptical the other days. I can go a lot farther faster on the bike than I could when I started and I keep cranking the resistance up. I go 6-7 miles up hill the whole way every day, longer if I have time. Really looking forward to better weather so I can get the real bike out and hit the trails. Your right the scale dosent tell the whole storie. Gaining muscle while loosing weight is not easy and that is where really good nutrition makes all the difference. You have to keep up the protein while cutting carbs and calories. A non meat eater would have a very challenging time of it. Keep up,the good work buddy!

Yes for sure there is always someone who figures that they can eat a whole brownie and ends up passed out. I've been there too but I'm a light weight with edibles. I can puff tough with anyone though.

I hope spring gets here soon. The forcast shows high temps in the 30's and lows as low as mid teens this weekend. It's usually a good bit nicer here this time of year.

I'm looking forward to the weekend as well. I hope you have good weather for your Saturday adventure. If it rains than a lazy day of puffing dosent sound bad either. Keep smiling brother!

[pop_rocks]

i hear you brother about being a light weight when it comes to edibles
its weird because i am often an all day smoker, i start smoking in the morning and keep toking as the day goes on
the mrs smoke a few small puffs and then settles in, smoking more later while im choo-choo-ing along (blowing clouds of smoke)
but give her a pan of brownies and she eats like crazy
its funny you mention carbs because that is one thing i dont worry about at all
i know a lot of dietitians will talk about glycemic index and limiting carb intake, but to me a kcal is a kcal
/a measure of energy
i do try and eat a lot of low fat protein but i am not afraid of fries of potatoe chips
i am cutting down on sugars, but thats because i think of sweets like i think of salt
/if you are used to a ton of salt or sugar, you ahve to eat a lot of it to get that taste
but in the end, whatever works for you is what works for you
that is a serious effort,brother riding that far up hill
i dont ride that many miles uphill in a week of mountain biking
i bet you crush it when you are on the mountain bike
so im thinking im going to be pulling down some more plants this weeeknd and i will probably also pull the pin on the sativa
the other night i was checking out the plants and this sativa is the worse
her sister is much farther along and gumming up nicely, but the one ive shown pics of has no sugar at all
i mean none,my man
its like a hemp plant and i dont know if i want keep throwing good light on a bad plant
i will try and get some close up pics next chance i get
me and the mrs are going on a little adventure this weekend and i am super excited about this!

one more day to go fellas and its all about the weekend, lets finish the week off strong my friends!
