While wrapping up stuff last night, it’s then the words came back to me, as they do every Christmas since they were spoken at me ” put the tape down and back away from the wrapping paper ”
Ever since then, EVERY gift is now hidden in the box of straw with paw prints on the outside of the box
normally red or black ink
depending on the what former woodland critter is in the box 🙂
people know sorta know what’s in there already, by the smell of the heavy smoke scent
you don’t have a good smoke ring?
Work on it
thinking I’ve been ahead of the curve for a very long time
how so you may ask
ponder on this
governments can VAX the whole damn planet but they cannot feed the hungry?
don’t tell me they are not using food as a weapon to punish people
want to read about the biteme build back better
type in
Afghans are selling thier children to pay bills and just to eat
The food prices in America, a direct assault on the people
back to wrapping
those who process thier own from field to table fare know it’s not a cheap thing to do
everything involved cost money first things first
you have to be successful
the machines are not cheap
the bags, the gloves, the seasonsings, Grumpy E-9 trades apple branches he trims off for smoked stuff
so that’s a trade
but everything else ,all of it, cost money
I’ve not had one complaint through the years or something returned to me
different kinds smoked meats an cheeses
my gifts never last long or sit around collecting dust
Pro-tip:
for stubborn hair use a small torch for removal
