I did a smidgen of climbing circa 1980 in the South, and while I don’t remember route names, I mostly remember the snarky comments about rappelers. The climbers I knew were mostly stoners.

A restaurant near work makes good blueberry pancakes with scattered blueberries on top and some blueberry compote on the side (in addition to syrup). Make it a combo with eggs and bacon and you’re set.

Oh, that’s what it was.  Thanks!

I always thought this would make a scary apocalypse:

I would just like to take this opportunity to say that a warmed slice of Pecan Pie on top of a bowl of Vanilla Ice Cream is a wonderful thing. Ice Cream à la mode, as it were.

He was a 14 pound orange tabby (like Morris the Cat). So, lots of orange and white hair was shed.

I had a cat that was a foodie, and he got all treats all year (wet food to promote hydration, treats to get him to take medicine, and others). When it came the holidays, I decided he didn’t need any extra food, so I took my Navy Pea Coat out of the closet and laid it on the bed. He would literally spend all day on the…
