Beverages and Blades - Traditional of Course

[Jack Black]

My evening repast is in celebration of the birthday of our own Jack Black ( Jack Black ). I know some will be upset that I did not gum up a fine folding knife slicing this ribeye, but I feel that Jack will cut me some slack for using a proper knife for the task. Happy Birthday, Jack! Cheers, mate!!

p.s., Yes, the cutting board was my "plate", but sautéd asparagus was added after the pic (still cooking when I took the pic).

Many thanks Stuart, I'm honoured my friend

Oh man that looks good! Nothing beats a nice ribeye! I think we've got a Porterhouse ready for tonight.

We made the Costco run this morning, first time in public in 12 days. Most everyone had a mask and gloves on, including yours truly. Gas is 1.799 at the Costco pump. I'll take it.

Strange times indeed. Be safe folks!

Along for the ride today.

Oops, adding a beverage. Cold, clear water with a Kerry Hampton Desk Knife.

It was the least that I could do, Jack (and I always do the least).

Light-Hearted instead of Two-Hearted. I'm cutting down.

Here's a knife idea:

Long day, just got the boots off and now time for a beer.

Kind of like my Rough Rider melon tester, Jer:


I'm not cutting down on beer, but I'd like to "stay the course" at a beer with dinner each night, rather than giving in to the temptation to have one at lunch as well, as long as I'm home and lunch (and beer) are so convenient! Some Leinie porter with supper tonight (old photo though):

How does this Islay compare to say, Laphroig? I've never heard of it....

It is good but not quite as good as Laphroaig, Lagavulin, Ardbeg, Bowmore, etc. Still tasty though. And peaty.

The local craft brewery is full steam ahead with this Red SMaSH ale (single malt and single hop) tastes good and pure.
Now if youll excuse me I have 64floz to get through...cheers.

I went to the 1792 distillery back before their rickhouse collapsed. After the tour, and there was only my wife and I and another couple, I had to drink all of the samples they set out because nobody else was a drinker.

 

[hornetguy]

I was going to put this in the pocket carver thread, but I had my Gentleman Jack in the picture, so... it goes here.... along with my first attempt at a ball in cage whittling, and the Forum knife. I just finished with it, but still need to clean it up, and put a coat of oil on it.....

 

[Onebigbill]

Not a bad combo at all

A very fine knife indeed. I am awaiting my third Black Jack in the mail. I foolishly sold the first two and regretted it. I'm going to be a proud owner of the third and final installment.
