Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

Hey Larry, thanks . The story goes that the #2 cylinder hydrauliced and when they spun the engine over to build oil pressure, BOOM!!! The blower didn't blow off, that was removed later. The mag was grounded too. Sad all around. It was a nitro fuel altered car.

Raining here today, (finally) so I decided to bake some Chocolate Waffle Cookies. This was my moms recipe and waffle iron and she has been gone for close to 20 years. A good way to remember her....

Wife and I also baked a Custard Pie. She makes the crust and I make the filling. Anyone else remember their mom or Grandma baking the left over crust with sugar and cinnamon on it? Yummy!

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

I never thought to make cookies with a waffle maker. But those cookies look pretty darn good. And that pie is speaking to me.

These cookies are really easy and quick to make. I would be glad to post the recipe if anyone is interested. The pie is half gone already....
-----------------------------------
Chocolate Waffle Cookies

1 1/2 C. Sugar
1 C. Butter
(Blend the first two ingredients)

Add:
4 Eggs, one at a time
1/2 C. Cocoa
2 tsp Vanilla
2 C. Flour
Pinch salt

Bake one minute in waffle iron on med. high heat.
(you may have to adjust this a little depending on your waffle iron)

I remove them from the waffle iron by sticking a fork into the edge of them.

Eat plain or frost with white or choc. powdered sugar frosting.

I would like to make them. But that means I'd have to find my waffle maker.

I have so darned many kitchen gadgets that it's a scavenger hunt to find one when I need it. It takes me longer to find what I need than to actually cook.

Where did I put that thing???

I'd like the recipe for the waffle iron cookies....my grandkids would love those!

We have one of those very old, heat on the stove, waffle irons up at the cabin and these would be perfect on a cool fall day.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

Went to a car/air/balloon/drone show yesterday

Car show ok, no pics. Air show was small but got to see three of my fav WWll planes.

Balloon glow was sorta cancelled, too windy to inflate balloons I guess so the sat in their baskets and hit the burners for a burner show = lame. Didn’t stay for the drone light show, may have been canceled too?

A few pics of the planes. Really hard to take decent pics with my phone. Tried to crop extra junk out of the pics.

Great photos Mark.. I like war planes too. We have the Warhawk Musium here at our Nampa airport and every once in awhile I get to see world 11 Bombers making their turn just almost at our house low in the sky. They have rides for people on some of them big war planes

But I'll eat scrambled eggs and sausage at midnight. I guess my clock is a little off.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

Well, today I went and did it again. I bid five bucks over the minimum bid just for S&G's and nobody bid against me. I won.

So now I have two Baja's. Except this one runs. I really just bought it for the motor for my 63. But now I'm thinking maybe not. Maybe just have fun with it. WTH I live in the desert.

I'm not crazy about the color. It's not green. It's GREEN!!!!! Looks like a frog.
