We’ve been banging on the glass behind UMass- Lowells bench.
UNH scored a goal and while the announcer was calling it and we were all looking at the big screen with the player video going Umass scored a goal at the other end. None of us saw it. The goals were 17 seconds apart lol.
I’ll bet one of those could get me to Christmas Island in one hop… 
Pity the top was closed from that rock slide a few weeks ago, but most of the way there:

Any trout in that lake?
Dang…that looks awesome. That shrimp and grits in the bowl?
It’s artificial (Alouette Lake), in that pretty much all our power in BC comes from hydro dams, and this is a feeder lake kept as a reserve store (it actually feeds into another much bigger lake lower down where the turbines are through a mountain tunnel; it’s basically a water battery). There are a couple of fish in it but the dam doesn’t have a fish ladder to the downstream river, so the returning big guys can’t come back up anymore. There is a hatchery at the base of the dam (plus some talk of building a series of pools so they can jump back up). We have a lot of water.
It is- that’s from the Marketplace Restaurant. Early Girl and Tupelo Honey both had 1+ hour waits this morning.
Coming home from a week away from your seven year old to see this waiting on the kitchen counter at midnight…couldn’t have melted my heart any more. As a military brat, my Dad often had to deploy, sometimes for up to a year. I don’t know how servicemen and women do it.
A loving kid is a sign of good parenting. Just saying… 
Mind telling me what grits are please?
It’s kinda like porridge, but made from ground corn, and is a breakfast staple here in the southern US. As they don’t have much flavor on their own, they’re often mixed with butter, cheese, hot sauce, etc, or used as a basis for other recipes - for shrimp and grits, they’re used to absorb the flavors of the sauce the dish is served with, and to provide a different texture.
Back in the days when the south was much more heavily agrarian, they were a cheap and quick source of carbs to fuel a long day of work in the fields.
Southerners, did I cover all the bases there?
Hehe love that movie…
Marisa Tomei is my Jenneke…
You done good Navynuke99! Grits are the first thing that I can remember my mother and grandmothers serving.
I’m making my family’s grits casserole for the office Thanksgiving potluck this week; I’ll post pics of that later this week.
Dammit, now you’ve made me hungry!
what is this “grits” thing you are talking about.
Recipe please !
