Watching the Lone Ranger, Gunsmoke, Wagon Train, and Rin Tin Tin on channel seven on the black and white TV no doubt inspired the ranch hand to long admire the "cowboy" lifestyle.
The ole fat boy has never owned a horse and the ranch ain't even half vast, but that don't dilute appreciation of the genre.
Accordingly, the ranch accoutrements include a backyard "Rusty Spur Saloon"...and an outdoor covered kitchen dubbed, "The Chuck Wagon".
In an attempt to honor the "cookies" of the old west....yours truly has embarked on a culinary oddessy involving exploration of dutch oven cooking (biscuits, cobblers, and such), and disc harrow blade cooking (cowboy breakfast to beignets to fajitas to ??).
So far, the family/guests have been without complaint regarding the groceries.
The ranch hand jus' be grinnin' these days while sitting in the great outdoors, sippin' a cool adult beverage.....and smelling that superlicious grub on the oak fire coals.
Life is good!
Plain and simple ramblin' from an ole country boy concerning personal history, current family events, the Tin Star Ranch, and philosophical BS with no redeeming social value implied or intended.
