I'd rather swim with whales than kill them. But I do like Nantucket.

The only other literate man in this thread.

Irony.

Ya. Pretty much.

I guess blubber pizzas are out of the question *********.

But honestly I don't really get it. You folks want to kill whales? You dependent on the makeup potential or the oil for the lamps in you hovels? If it's just the oil you could club seals for that so why screw with really big mammals?

Clubbing seals is just for fun.

And what's wrong with screwing around with really big mammary glands?

A baby seal walks into a club ...

Hoppy said a funny! Whodda thunk it?

The season has been extended by great weather, but not a single burnt pizza pic in months. Step up your game Paul!

Be nice to me. I'm in mourning over the death of my friend Cape

He. . Died an internet death?

Beer sent ...

Better than a f'ing macaroni and cheese f'ing casserole.

Your sleeves do get dirty when you reach into your oven and pull out that charcoal you call pizza.

You funny.

Hey Evets,
Do you ever use coal in your oven? Advantages? Disadvantages? TIA

People call those BBQ's. And you can buy a functional one from the store. Which is nice because you can use it right away and don't waste thousands of dollars and several years building something to half burn your half raw pizza.

Oh, and Happy New Year, Paul.

So does Paul, unless he took his stocking down.

I SO need new friends.

What do you use the coal for, Melana?

I've used lump charcoal a few times when using the oven as a smoker but never anthracite. Thought about it but I think there's a lot of nasty crap in coal smoke that I'd rather not eat. I know lots of places use old coal ovens but I think the cooking chamber is separate from the firebox. I could be wrong about that though, never having actually seen one in person.

anthracite is a rad word

I dig it too! I mean, not that I'm a miner or anything............
I used to have a porcelain sign on my shed just like this one.

Hi kids, remember me?

So the oven sat for a bit while I got my Masters degree and became a nurse practitioner. But that's over with finally (can I get an Amen?) and so I once again have some time and spare money.

The slate roof has been mostly done for a while, I need to make a copper ridge cap still.

Today I finished installing the metal lathe and put the first scratch coat of stucco on one wall. Not bad, considering it was done by a nurse.

You can now resume your previous jealousy of my awesomeness.

That's such an informative, wonderful, flattering picture....

OMG... this can't be a real thing
