The Hot Handle

A blog interspersed with occasional gluten free recipes.

Please note: If you have a family member who requires a gluten free diet, be sure to use a cast iron skillet that has never previously touched gluten....and if it has, scrub it all down completely and re-season, to be on the safe side.

Jan 26

 Peter's brewing experiment yielded excellent results.  

However, this has opened a can of worms.  (Not literally.)  
He now wants to duplicate the recipe but with purchased hops, 
as opposed to his home grown hops.  
To do this, we needed to make another trip to Wyoming, RI, for supplies. 

Following that, we drove south to Watch Hill.  We had a "car picnic" with a nice view.  
As we drove home, we passed the Watch Hill Fire Department, 
where I noticed a large number of fire hydrants to the side of the building!

I quickly Googled it and found that they will be in the Guinness Book of World Records, 
with over 226 fire hydrants in their collection!  
They are hoping to reach 300.  We turned around to take a closer look.  

It was so cool and interesting to find this little gem!





It was nice to get out on a sunny day, 
even though we couldn't be outside of the car much due to the cold and wind.

Not much else going on as I await my turn for a vaccine.....which will be a while!
So I'll end with a smile for today:






Take care,

Barbara
