Whenever I see beef Jerky I remember getting some from my girlfriend at the time and giving it to my brother who didn’t smoke …we went to a families holiday party and he was falling asleep in between opening presents. That shit was medicated to the extreme and he ate a full ziplock 
I’m crying trying to type this it was so fuckin epic

Very nice. I have lived off that stuff a few times in my life. Hard to go wrong with jerky.

Did you know olives have pits?
I found out the hard way after being offered an olive and trying to choke it down quickly out of politeness. Thought I had broken a tooth.

I’ve heard of restaurants having to pay for dental work 
I’ve also heard a customer request pureed crabcakes and a straw (customer had their jaw wired shut)

The Alden’s was dinner, the Fiorello’s will be desert. (Mrs. mota will be home later this evening.) Both are high quality products, and if you happen to live in the bay area, the Fiorello’s is by far the best pre-packaged gelato I have ever had. They make a bunch of flavors. Highly recommended by me, and not simply because I’m high.
And a happy new year to one and all OGs!

For this stoner this morning it was blue huckleberry pancakes, which Mrs. mota graciously offered to make. 
It’s a real production for me. HA! That’s enough berries for four pancakes, two days for me.
You can see some of the berries have stemage. I think it averages about 20 - 30% with stems. Some of the berries also have flowers, but I don’t worry about them as much. The stems can be pokey, inflexible and more than slightly annoying, whereas the flowers are soft. It takes me about 45 minutes to do the entire container.
That’s quite the pile of stems. (No stems, no seeds that you don’t need.) In this container I also found a couple of conifer needles, which isn’t all that unusual. Again, more than a little annoying.
By the time I’m done, I always feel like I have voted (potentially multiple times 
) in some third world country! 
In the background you can see our tower of tunnels. Our cat, Genki, loves tunnels! This one is three stories high, and he uses them all, sly little devil that he is. I have to replace the tower two or three times a year since we encouraged him to use it as a scratching post, which you can see he does.
Okay, time for some serious eating! I generally like berry pancakes with maple syrup, no matter the berry. Plain pancakes I’m more flexible with. Maple, mixed berry, chicken gravy (not really). I’m good with a variety. BTW, these are buttermilk pancakes, our usual.
We premix the dry ingredients into Bon Maman jam jars. Makes the making so much quicker!
