The Cozy Corner

Maybe slightly off topic but I've always wanted to do one of those Operate Construction Equipment for fun parks.

It looks like fun and if I'm supervised there is a chance I won't flip a bulldozer on its side or have some other accident.

That’s really a thing? Sounds fun!!

dozers are hard to flip unless its really unstable ground 🤣
Skid steers are easier, I have actually rolled down a hill in one of those and its scary as fuck!

I nearly flipped a skid steer first time in. Damn bucket dropped like a rock and I was looking straight up.

Mmmm… maybe not! 😳

I slammed hubby's Bobcat into his trailer and he gave me the most intense look. I didn't know if I should have been turned on or scared... So I went all out and felt both. 😂

They have them not sure if there are any convenient to me though.

Both is always the answer when you're not sure 😁
 
Quick and Simple Carne Asada Recipe

Carne Asada

5 lbs of thin cut flank steak
3 white onions (cut in large sections)
3 cilantro bunches (cleaned and uncut)
10-15 limes
1 Lawry's Meat Seasoning or this one. Worst case scenario - salt and pepper
12-pk of Corona beer (different beers will give it a different taste - avoid Dos X. Lol

This recipe is real simple, easy, and really rich in flavor.

Take the meat and pat it down. Let it rest, covered, for about half an hour.

Grab a deep tray where you'll be making the marinade. On another tray, gently dust the meat (both sides) with the meat seasoning. Place a full later in the deep tray and squeeze a few limes over the meat.

Add a thin layer of onion a cilantro.

Add another layer of meat and repeat until all 5 lbs are done. Cover it and place in the refrigerator for about half an hour.

Take the cover off and gently add the beer via a corner. Don't wash the seasoning off the meat!

Add a little more meat seasoning, cover and place it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours to let the marinade do it's thing.

When you're ready to grill it (you can use a griddle (think Blackstone) but the flavor will be different compared to charcoal or propane), gently remove the top layer of cilantro and onions (don't toss the onions).

Place the meat on the grill on med-high heat depending on steak thickness. The thinner the steak, the faster it will sear. Once seared, place the meat in another container with a lid. Cover the cooked meat while you sear the rest.

Before you finish grilling, toss in the onions and grill them along with some jalapenos as sides.

Boom! A quick, simple, carne asada! Warm up some corn tortillas, chop the meat, and you got tacos! Add a little guac or make your own salsa to add!

Warm up some flour tortillas, add a little red rice and meat and boom! Burritos!

Try it out!

:heart:
Idk, I gotta see the taco first. Send taco pics to inbox. 😃
 
Has anyone here had something they would call a near death experience?

For me it’s been twice.
Would you call being stabbed in the shoulder a NDE?

What about getting up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night and a drive by shooting sent 2 rounds into your pillow? Does that count?

What if you flat lined giving birth? Does that count?

Or when hubby proved he was right and I was way wrong? Does that count as a NDE?

Geeeezus Carmen! You must have nine lives 😵‍💫

Also, I didn’t flat line giving birth but i 1000% thought i died and totally had an out of body experience during my c-section … a failed epidural + failed spinal meant I felt like I was being ripped in half when they started to pull the baby out. Hubby said the scream I screamed was like nothing he’s ever heard.
They pushed fentanyl and then gave me more nitrous oxide and I swear I thought I had died.

Chica, I wasn't the most responsible teen - was really into gang culture. Why? Because I was a pendeja! So glad I left that.

Birth? Same! Failed epidural! My blood pressure went up so fast and I was in so much pain, I passed out and then.... Hubby says I flatlined during the emergency c section for nearly 30 seconds. I don't remember any of that - I woke up 3 hours later.

I would so do this. Love to operate a crane and hook a horrible driver up and leave it there for a bit. Then a large front end loader and dig a big hole LOL.
