Tex_77 That looks great. I think if we lived near each other we would both weigh 400 pounds

Jonathon We lived in the Houston area (Magnolia, Cypress, Tomball) for 23 years. I agree, the traffic was “GawdAwful”, so we did everything we could all those years to avoid the Houston proper. However, during certain times, in order to make a living you could not avoid it. Then I had a job for a number of years in Houston where I avoided it by leaving about 5:00 am & then trying to do my rounds in the late afternoon well out in the outskirts to “skirt it”. Then things started changing & they expected you in the office at 8:00 & leave at 5:00. That changed my daily commute from 1.5 hours to over 4 hours. No fun at all, but a lot of people did it. We have lived in a few other places too I guess I would have to say & have been here now for what, 18 years. Traveled all over the country too, on assignment. Humidity is horrible here too at times & I like the West a lot, but it is very affordable here & my wife will not go for any northern climes, even when I have been offered good jobs. She would say, “if you are going there, you are going by yourself”.

Tex_77 drooling………What kind of dressing is that for the salad?

Tex_77 Mexican Monday to last for the week. That looks real nice, with a little Sangria to wash it all down.

calldoctoday Well I soaked the rice for 20 minutes or so then rinsed, then toasted in oil, threw in some diced onion, a can of diced tomatoes and green chilies (drained) and some minced garlic.

calldoctoday I was there right after Katrina and two weeks later there was another one that they said was gonna hit Houston. I was in San Antonio for work that Friday and my boss told me not to risk coming into the office but I had paperwork I wanted to get in while everything was still fresh in my mind. Drive in from my house to office in downtown Houston usually took 1 hour or so, took 20 minutes cause no one was heading that way and then took me 6 HOURS to get home! People were running out of gas on the highway. We got a mild thunderstorm that night so we all freaked over nothing!

Joe Hell they call a cheese stuffed burger a Jucy Lucy in the Minneapolis/St.Paul area.
Looks and sounds pretty darn tasty.

Jonathon Don’t you just love it some days! Yes, I was on assignment during both of those events. The first was Katrina, the second was Rita that ended up centering around Calcacieu Parrish (Lake Charles Area). I was supposed to do our work solo for that, I am glad the figured out otherwise after a while, but I tried. I was supposed to eventually go to Pearland & work, but they seemed to want to keep me out of there after all was said & done. I did end up for a while as far as Port Arthur & East Texas, & then snuck over to see my dad, before having to head back out this way. I am glad you made it through all that OK.

calldoctoday Well…I did make each of my folks a burger so I suppose I shared but that one was all mine!
Joe Hell Wow, all yours, as far as the eye could see then. That must have been a whole lot of good looking burger!

Tex_77 Hmm, it just seemed to look much more, what should I say, melted Cheddar Cheese like than Thousand Island. It looked much brighter than Thousand Island.
