Slicing it kinda went to shit but from the bits I've had to far I think we hit 9, 9.5/10.

Making a touchdown isn't helpful if the other team immediately turns around and makes their own.

Although tbh not surprising if I sit in another room my stream is often as much as 30-45 seconds behind the one in the living room.

Paul will cheer for something and I have to shout SPOILERS.

I told him the first meal we had together, subconsciously he had that thought and he went "that must have been waaayyyy deep down subconscious, like, ten levels deep. But it worked out for me, it's all coming up Paul."

Past Paul was out here like well I could go to restaurants for decent BBQ for the rest of my life or I could marry a Texan who will obsess over every detail and all I have to do is listen to her yap about cows

This morning I thanked Paul for indulging my brisket hobby and he said he didn't mind and I think it's because unlike my other hobbies he gets delicious food out of it.

My biggest mistake is that I haven't made little line charts of my cooks to compare them, so that starts with the Thanksgiving brisket.

I also need to start a little notebook and write some notes.
