Full Day
Friday, May 27, 2016, 06:00 PM
This was an active day. I worked a little on Android and made progress adding country and gessy to the advanced search and to the user db. I went over to Kroger to get the Friday freebie which is a Quaker breakfast bar and also a free donut in honor of National Donut Day. Kroger donuts are not great. They're not fresh and taste like preservative. Last night I made a rub and put it on the ribs. This morning I unwrapped the ribs and started the Smoker around 12:00 which is later than I wanted but OK for a 6 PM dinner. I used the 3-2-1 smoking which is 3 hours of smoking, 2 hours wrapped and 1 hour basting/carmelizing. I missed the 3:00 wrapping because we were still out on a bike ride. Wrapped the meat at 3:30 instead. We went out the front entrance of Buckingham into town then walked our bikes through downtown returning down 1010 through some old Apex neighborhoods. Turned in at the condos on 1010, went through the Seagroves Park and back through vintage grove to Buckingham. We went up Buckingham way to see the garden opposite the Pinnix home. We met the homeowner, Glenda Mooney who moved in 3 or 4 years ago. Their gardens with a wall were beautiful. She's a really nice person. We chatted for a while then went home to tend the Smoker. I had to make the BB sauce to do the basting. Took the ribs out at 6 PM. Libbie made Lima Beans to complement the meal which we had with Ravenswood Zinfandel. After dinner Libbie served a homemade strawberry shortcake which used up the strawberries we picked up at the Farmers Market this week. It was a full and satisfying day.
