Began chilling my trim scraps before grinding (helps with fat separation) and the sausage texture is perfect now.

I finally joined a dig site crew last month

We were clearing a section when someone found a bone fragment. The team lead called everyone over, just like when a busy day starts at my place. Sorting through the dirt felt familiar, like prepping dogs for a groom. It showed me how careful planning matters in both fields. What's the coolest find you've been part of?

Learned the hard way that contour lines on a map are not suggestions...

My shortcut down what looked like a gentle slope turned into an hour-long slide on loose scree that left my pants in tatters...

Got a request for flowers that are almost extinct.

The customer asked for a lily that's running out in nature. I said no, but they said it's only for their event. What's your take on using plants that are disappearing?
