Make soup of course. -2 degrees with a windchill of -25 degrees
Got a pot of chicken soup simmer on the stove.
No carrots in the fridge so celery,onions,shredded brussel sprouts,corn and crushed tomatoes it is.

I'd practice making tricycle motors.

Why?

Because it's fun.

You know what a tricycle motor is, right?

OK I'll bite, what's a tricycle motor.

I got ya now

Now that's funny. I'm 73 years old and it's not cold here, but a little motor building "practice" seems like a good idea to me. Be back in about an hour.

I'd be looking for Double D's!! And not the kind you fish in. Well.....

i was going to make soup. then i decided to work on my never ending bathroom remodel. then i decided to go into my safe and fondle some guns. then i stood at the window and stared at the snow and -10 outside temps for 30 min and decided to order chinese takeout and start drinking homebrew and hit the sack early. rough day

Kinda looks like a little Scott.

Be sure to load the rods.

Soup is certainly a good idea but I sure enjoyed the grilled cheese I had!

I made the 1 1/2 hour trip to the camp to check on it and pick up the BGE to bring home. I was greeted by the local lake on my way in. If this scene doesn't make you think winter comfort food nothing will.

Sure made me think about next springs fresh fried perch and crappie though!

If the ice is thick enough, get ya an ice auger.

I've ice fished before. The ice is never thick enough to make me do that again even for fresh perch

That will do. My wife did very similar a couple of weeks ago substituting cubed elk for chicken. I honestly cannot remember ever not making a good pot of soup. Growing up it was served near daily to start dinner in my Italian home.
