YUM YUM Yummy /no more Augusta

I wake up this morning and see it's 16 degrees wit ha high of 28.  WOW - That IS a cold front . . . of wait . . .my weather web page is all of a sudden in Celsius.  Did Denmark purchase America while we were sleeping?   Maybe we can finally he health care and education.

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

But the BIG news of the morning and people are furious - is HB - the company that created the The Gold Club 2019 has deleted all courses that gave the word Magnolia OR Augusta.  GONE - deleted. 

Designers who spent 1000 hours creating the course had it go into vapor ware.  GONE.  I guess the people who own Augusta lawyered up. I'm not sure how they can take charge of the word Magnolia but they did.

Americans spend $426 million a year on golf balls.  Every golfer will lose 0 to 3 balls a round but rarely will a golfer lose a club. So the golf industry has noticed and now you can click a box and have golf balls sent to you on a regular basis.  REALLY?  Who would do that LOL

One of the joys is buying a new box of balls where THESE will be the ones that will lower your handicap.  OH - it early happens.   

I purchased some balls last year that LITERALLY flew farther - loved them . . . . until I got near the greens and then BAM - they were like super balls and chips would go sailing over the green or putting they would fly off the putter.   Super low compression balls - I mean REALLY low.

Most low compression balls are in the 70 range and these were like 30  LOL

YumYum Thai Kitchen - I am NOT a Thai expert in ANY way so bear with me (or bare with me if you like).

We decided to order three items from Yum Yum for pickup and all three were DELICIOUS!! Went with "american" Thai at the moment and will work our way into the "exotic" dishes later LOL

First up the appetizers

5. Sun Dried Beef - Marinated strips of beef deep fried. Served with hot or sweet chili sauce. The beef is crispy and dry and great on it's own as a snack and dipped into the spicy sauce - BAM - GREAT

6. Chicken Satay (4 Pieces) Skewered marinated chicken, grilled & served with house made peanut sauce, toast and cucumber salad. - The peanut sauce with the chicken is AGAIN - fantastic. Very meaty chicken and I used both sauces

And the main event
51. Pad Thai Traditional Thai stir-fried rice noodles. Choice of meat stir-fried with rice noodles, scrambled egg, yellow tofu, scallions, ground peanuts, bean sprouts with traditional tamarind sauce topped with.

Super good - I think DJ ordered the 2nd spiciness and I think one more on the spice scale would have been nice.

Super duper happy. James Street Pizza and YumYum - The Golden food block in Columbus!!
