The Plaza Sauce revealed

OK - I THOUGHT we could get the draft finished tonight but a couple guys are holding up the boat.   But geez - these are such critical picks.  I mean I picked up Bretvic Valera (Balt) in the 15th round.   Who is he you say?

Yea - wish I knew - he is a body that can play but never ever will see the field but he fills a rule WHICH - - - f*ck . . . . . hmmmmm   I think I screwed up....  hmmmmm   my mood has suddenly soured in front of your eyes.   

hold on . . . .

wow - I think I just made a critical mistake.  I might need to look into some sort of trade.  . . . . . . tonight.  OK - the rule is, a team MUST have a back up shortstop on the team even if his shortstop can play all 162 games . . which mine can.  HOWEVER - my back up is not actually good enough to do ANYTHING . . but now I have to use a roster spot on him the 25 man (out of 40) playing roster.

I did get Jose Fernandaz (LA Angels) as my coveted utility infielder BUT . . . it SEEMS he never actually played short stop last year!  wow      OK - I put out the trade sign.  I feel better.

One guy I DID snatch is the new starting catcher for Kansas City . . . . until they signed Martin Maldonado . . TODAY  sigh   Well, the back up catcher.  my FIFTH catcher (opposed to 2 short stops).

sadly no catcher has more then 200 ABs.

OK OK - emergency diverted.  all is good.. stand down.

I mentioned I was with balderdash eating a Plaza Burger last week.  WELL - I GOT THE SECRET RECIPE clone and tried it tonight.   BAM!  Near perfect right away but I suspect if I let the ingredients meld together it will be even better.

All I know was it was GREAT and I could put more on my burger then The Plaza does.  The Plaza USED  to put a lot on their burgers to make them messy but those days are gone.

ANYWAY - I cut this in half

1 cup Sour Cream
1/2 cup Mayonnaise
1.5 teaspoons salt
2 tsp fresh chives
1 tsp Dried parsley
1 tsp celery seed
1 tsp garlic
pickle juice to thin the above down a tad. I put a ... splash maybe 1-2 tblsp?

BAM - there ya go - try it.

I got these at HyVee.  They are like melted butter cake chunks dripping with cinnamon.  I picked these up Saturday and when I got home tried 1 and another and then 3 more.  I then took half and hide them from Elweed who literally ate the rest in one sitting.  AMAZING and probably very healthy for you.

This is pretty funny   "How do I know what he ate for lunch today!"

This whole Trump budget thing.  COME ON PEOPLE - this is right out of his playbook that he never even wrote but said he did.

Trump makes a stupid budget and everybody is all upset and will kick and scream and it will never pass, but then once all of the REALLY controversial things are ripped out the NOT AS controversial things will still be there but nobody will worry because the REALLY bad things are not in the budget.  The left will claim victory and the right will wring their hands with glee.

He wins.  Bait and switch.  The perfect con.

and COME ON PEOPLE2 - stop insulting Trump supporters. They are not ignorant but misinformed because of FOX Fake propaganda news.  They are like a cult. YES - they talk ignorant but are really just clueless to real facts. They are being fed misinformation.  Do be mad - be sad for them.  The blue wave IS real. Everything Trump is doing can be undone.

I'm pretty sure Columbus will reap the benefits of the DNC coming to Milwaukee.  If Columbus hotels can be full because of the PGA I'm pretty sure "we" will be full because of the DNC.

Thank you Fiserv Forum for bringing the DNC to Wisconsin.

No HUGE progress on the deck that you can see.  a lot of little things.  although they are putting up scaffolding today

You know what is sad.  It's Gus the Weather Dog as a bigger following then I do.  sigh  Damn Dog.

+++++++++++++++

25% off at Maurers - great deals on booze for sure.   I for a 1.75L bottle of Fireball for $17 and some gin that is $4 cheaper then Hyvee. And of course the 6-packs of craft beer.

ShopKo has they faux 50% off sales but since I could never find ANYTHING to buy in that store.  50% off nothing is still nothing.

*****************

Weather - rain wind and flooding (isn't that an old rock group?)  - she be commin'   Expect waves of showers for the next few days and warm temps with a lot of wind.  Friday is the transition day and next week looks REALLY good FINALLY  above average and sun.
