At least the weed was worth waiting for... Got me some blue cheese x sour diesel, nice n tasty and saves me hitting the already dipped into xmas bud.
Gonna get my hair cut short tomorrow, as I have let it get a bit bushy ... Don't want the oven to burn it off when cooking xmas dinner... Hope baby b don't freak out

Brining not difficult. Just salt and water. Let it soak overnight if possible.... but even 3-4hours will help.

Makes the meat hold water better. Good things...

I do like this bud , dangerously tasty... Would love a clone of it. You can taste the blue n cheese but the sour d twangs the taste buds too, nice balance. I Am looking at a nugget and smoking a demon cigarette at the moment but will be wrapping one up as soon as I get baby b to bed. Then it's off to the shed with me

Quite lucky as far as unwanted visits go, we are getting those out the way on christmas Eve and boxing day.... Just going to see the in-laws xmas morning then we are free I'm gonna glaze the ham n peel the potatoes on xmas eve to save some time.
Baby brunches first christmas dinner as she was only 1 month old last year... She's a bit of a carnivore like me so she will love it- turkey, ham, sausage and bacon at the same meal

The only thing about smoking turkeys is that if you get one of any decent size (20+ pounds) then be prepared to smoke it all day. I did one a couple of years ago that was over 20lbs, I started it around 10am and 12 hours later it had still not reached the desired internal temperature. In a situation like that though you can always finish it off in the oven. That's what I did and after an hour at 375 it was finished.

Visiting relatives this morning and afternoon then j shall break open the xmas stash

The space station is due to fly over the uk at 5:22 this evening for a few minutes, and will be the brightest light in the Sky, so I will be telling little brunch " look, there's santa in his sleigh " .... Imagination is great

Cheers , noyd same to you and hope you have a happy 2015

A shed is for life, not just for Christmas.
Glad that's all out the way for another year .... Don't get me wrong I love all the food , smoke and people enjoying themselves but I'll be happier when it's all back to normal.
Got to get me a heated prop. As I want to stick some cuttings out here for my guerilla this year, just got to decide on an early outdoor strain that'll do me proud.... Would love to be smokin a good outside crop this time next year.
Pissin down with rain here again, the missus is hoping for snow, but that might fuck up the work situation for me so not so keen on the white stuff myself.
Roll on 2015!
