At the end of last Sunday’s food adventure I indicated that this week’s food adventure would involve Indian food.

Get to them while the memories are still fresh… Read More »Super Bowl Spreads – 2025

On Super Bowl Sunday I got invited to 2 Super Bowl parties. Which is strange, cause it isn’t all that common for me to get invited to adult parties. I’m big time on the toddler party circuit, but other than that, my party dance card is pretty much empty. So… Read More »Super Bowl Spreads

As I started looking through these pictures, I realize that I should have published this collection much earlier as the memory has become a bit foggy since the Iowa State Fair, which was 2 months ago. Something to remember for next year. This food adventure is a collection of all… Read More »Iowa State Fair Food Carousel
This Sundays food adventure is a little different. Finally getting around to sharing pictures of Scott’s progeny Austin competing at the Iowa State Fair barbecue contest.

For starters, Logan entered and competed in his… Read More »Baby Got Rack Jr. – Boone County Fair
I should start this entry by hoping everybody had a good Memorial Day! I know, I shared that exact same picture on Saturday. But I like it and it seems to fit Memorial Day. I’d like to take this little piece of this website to share the poem “In Flanders… Read More »WPC – WEEK 402 – PARK
Last Saturday was the annual Boone County Fair barbecue contest. Baby Got Rack decided to take a different tact this time. Rather than entering the pizza, we decided to enter something new. Meatloaf Cupcakes. This was a big risk just based on the fact that the pizza was a surefire… Read More »Baby Got Rack Takes the Boone County Fair
This is the final collection of pictures from the Anderson-Degeneffe Wedding that I am going to share. This almost concluded the 2017 back log.

One of the things that stunk about the end of 2017 was the closing of The Legal Limit. Despite having an absolutely terrible name, The Legal Limit had great food. I ate breakfast there with my Mom about every Saturday. Sometimes I would go up there on Thursday nights for… Read More »Tenderloin Appreciation Society – Boone Field Work
For those that have been asking, it is my sad duty to report that Scott did not get elected last Tuesday. He lost the vote 161-126-2. Yes, there were two write-in votes. For Scooby Doo, I’m guessing. Based on how seriously some people take their vote. But 161 votes for… Read More »“The Wrong Guy Got Elected”
