I just replaced my molcajete which had been lost last year during my move back to Texas. It’s basically a mortar and pestle but it is hand carved from volcanic stone. Pretty much any kitchen in Mexico or the Southwestern United States has one.
A molcajete is used to grind/crush spices and vegetables. Crushing spices and such brings a taste to the game that you don’t get by running the same items through a food processor. The crushing process brings out the natural oils in things that you don’t get by running them through a blender. I spent a few hours the other day curing/seasoning my new molcajete as it was brand new. Today was the day to christen it by making a batch of jerky.
I wanted to make a batch of super hot and spicy jerky. So hot and spicy that anyone who tries a piece will rue the day that they met me. So spicy and hot that they will look down at the ground and spit whenever my name is mentioned! The kind of jerky that makes one think, “I am damned for all time!”
My beautiful friends on the jerky group are always asking for recipes, so here it goes. God save us all!:
I procured 14 pounds of meat. That weight would require about 6 cups of liquid. I went with my standard 50/50 mix. I used 3 cups of vinegar (red wine vinegar this time) and I was going to use 3 cups of Dr. Pepper for the other half. However, seeing as I was using a molcajete, I went with Mexican Coca-Cola instead.
I procured some Serrano peppers, plenty of habanero peppers, fresh garlic, and a white onion. All, I believe products of Mexico.
First, I chopped up the white onion and ground it to a paste in the molcajete. After transferring the paste to a container, I diced about 5 or 6 Serranos (keeping the seeds and all the insides. Again, ground to a paste and transferred to a container.
Then, I took about 14 habaneros, cut off the stems, diced, and ground them to a paste. Transferred.
Followed by a handful of fresh garlic roughly diced. Again, crushed to a paste.
I looked in my spice collection and found some mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Threw them into the molcajete and ground them to a slurry. The smell of grinding whole spices is amazing.
After combining the spices with the six cups of liquid, I added about 1/2 cup of brown sugar and Prague curing salt. I was going to add honey, but they had bourbon barrel aged maple syrup at the grocer’s. How could I say no to that? I used about 1/2 cup.
I performed my typical, “Taste a teaspoon” of the completed marinade. It was sweet. It was painfully hot. If eternal damnation has a flavor, this would be it!
I’ll let the meat marinade for about 18 hours and “get ‘er done!”
WARNING: Don’t wear contacts or plan on wearing contacts for a day or so after doing something insane like this! Even after washing my hands I rubbed my forehead and it started to burn. It’s a good burn.
Originally built in 1837-1840, this Greek Revival-style building was designed by John Francis Rague, and constructed to serve as the Illinois State Capitol, replacing the previous state house in Vandalia. The building features limestone exterior walls, a side-gable roof, two-story doric porticoes on the north and south facades, doric pilasters, an architrave with triglyphs at the base of the roof, twelve-over-twelve double-hung windows, and a central cylindrical cupola surrounded by a corinthian colonnade, which supports a small dome. The building was where Abraham Lincoln served his last term as a state lawmaker in 1840-1841, where he represented clients to the supreme court between 1841 and 1860, and where he announced his candidacy for senate in 1858, with the “House Divided” speech. It is also where President Lincoln’s body lay in state in 1865, following his assassination. By the 1860s, the building had become too small for the growing state of Illinois, and construction began on the current Illinois State Capitol in 1868. In 1876, the state government moved to the current State Capitol, and the building was given to Sangamon County to serve as a courthouse. In 1898-1899, the building was heavily modified, with the original structure being lifted 11 feet to accommodate the addition of a new first floor, and the interior was completely renovated to serve as a courthouse. By the 1960s, the building was too small for the growing needs of Sangamon County, and a new courthouse was completed in 1966, allowing the county courts and government to move out of the building. The building’s facade was subsequently carefully deconstructed, and the wooden and brick interior structure was demolished in 1966. Between 1966 and 1969, the entire square was excavated to construct a subterranean parking garage and office building, while a new modern structure was constructed above ground level, and was clad in the original building’s exterior facade, while the interior was reconstructed to represent how the building looked like circa 1860, when President Abraham Lincoln was elected, and the building was still in use as the state capitol. Thus, the building as it stands today is structurally a modern reconstruction of the original, but incorporates the original exterior of the old state capitol, and a carefully restored interior. The building was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1961, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966, and is a contributing structure in the Central Springfield Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, and expanded to its present size in 2016.. The building today is a historical museum, and occasionally hosts ceremonies, including state constitutional conventions, and being the place where President Barrack Obama announced his intention to run for President in 2007, as well as being where future President Obama introduced his running mate, future President Joe Biden, in 2008.
After more testing, the tighter turns just won't hold the different locos. Here, ripped out the inner turn and widened it out considerably.
Huge bathroom skylight that was a dumb idea by a previous owner of the house, because it was installed incorrectly and thus leaking, finally removed and roof patched in.

We applied for and obtained a Use of Easement so that a side walkway be poured within the easement. We applied for and obtained the PERMIT as required and handled all inspections. We removed the driveway which was damaged by a sinkhole. We poured the driveway with 4000 PSI concrete. All joints were cut accordingly.
Taken on an excursion cruise on the paddle steamer Waverley, travelling from Westminster to Gravesend to Southend, into the Medway and back again.
Waverley is named after Sir Walter Scott’s Waverley novels. She was built to replace the 1899 Waverley which was sunk by enemy action on May 29, 1940 at Dunkirk.
Waverley’s keel was laid on December 27, 1945 but due to material shortages after the war, she was not ready for launch until October 2, 1946. It wasn’t until the following year on January 20, 1947 that she was towed to Greenock for the installation of her boiler and engines. Her maiden voyage was on June 16, 1947.
Waverley was built for the route up Loch Goil and Loch Long from Craigendoran & Arrochar in West Scotland. She now visits several areas of the UK offering regular trips on the Clyde, The Western Isles, the Thames, South Coast of England and the Bristol Channel with calls at Liverpool & Llandudno.
Waverley is the World’s last seagoing paddle steamer. In 1974, at the end of her working life, she was famously gifted for £1 to the Paddle Steamer Preservation Society. Waverley Steam Navigation Co. Ltd., a charity registered in Scotland, was set up to own and operate the ship. Waverley then began a second career as one of the country’s best-loved tourist attractions. Since she has been in operational preservation, she has been awarded four stars by Visit Scotland, an engineering heritage award, and has carried over 6 million passengers from over 60 ports around the UK.
2003 saw the completion of a £7m Heritage Rebuild which returned Waverley to the original 1940s style in which she was built. This was made possible with major grants from the Heritage Lottery Fund and the Paddle Steamer Preservation Society (PSPS). Contributions also came from Glasgow City Council, Scottish Enterprise Glasgow, the European Regional Development Fund and local authorities.
In May 2019 Waverley was withdrawn from service and a capital appeal was launched to raise £2.3 million to allow her boilers to be replaced and re-commission Waverley for further service. In December 2019 it was announced that the appeal target had been reached.
Despite delays to the boiler refit due to the COVID-19 pandemic Waverley returned to service in August 2020 and operated a short season on the Firth of Clyde. After a successful season on the Clyde the following year, Waverley will be returning to other sailing areas in 2022.
2022 marked 75 years since Waverley’s maiden voyage on June 16, 1947.
Paddle steamer history
In 1812, when Henry Bell’s paddle steamer Comet became the world’s first commercial steamship to operate in coastal waters, a tradition was started which remains alive today only in the form of the world’s last seagoing paddle steamer, Waverley.
From the 1860’s onward, paddle steamers developed an important niche in the coastal passenger and excursion trade. Large fleets served the cities, towns, villages and resorts of the Firth of Clyde, the Bristol Channel, the South Coast of England, London and the Thames Estuary.
Paddle Steamers also made a significant contribution to the war effort as minesweepers in both World Wars, and indeed Waverley is named after and was built to replace the previous Waverley who performed a heroic role at Dunkirk in May 1940 before being sunk by enemy action.
With a few exceptions, the Clyde steamers were owned and operated by railway companies. These were largely commuter ferries linking all the villages with the nearest railhead for onward travel.
