Even its preface is interesting. I'm looking forward to it. (I have a daunting stack of books awaiting their turn.)

Perfect for Christmas. Cookie porn from 1990.

I saved my Marlboro miles and ordered this Marlboro Country Cookbook many moons ago. Really good recipes.

I did not “earn”this by saving the miles. I got it from my friend. I was a camel man anyway.

Tobacco Company Swag from the 1990s

Below is the back of my X-Large Camel tank top. My shirt size is Medium. It used to be Large, but never X-Large. A free swag mystery.

Resting on the front of my Camel tank top (even the tag at the top says, "Camel") is my newly purchased Marlboro Cowboy Cookbook. The book is thick and heavy.

In case you are wondering exactly what breed of steer you're eating for breakfast, the book includes this large foldout.

Nearly every page is filled with gorgeous photographs, along with the recipes.

Lot of peppers happing in these recipes. I would say that this (the book, not the tank top) is a wonderful investment for individuals who delight in outdoor cooking. Thank you, @Knucklehead, for bringing it to our attention.

I ordered two more. I need to grow some chilis and peppers this year.

Wife has that cookbook!

"Hey, Tincup. What's for breakfast? The herd is getting restless."
"Supper. It's still in the pot. It'll be warmed back up in no time. Coffee's ready now."

Any readers here? I read all the time from history to fantasy to westerns. I just finished the “Atlantis Gene“ trilogy by A.G. Riddle since the topic was a pandemic that wiped out most of the humans (thankfully this is fiction) and I’m well on the way to reading “Departure” by the same author. I’m looking forward to catching up on some Jonathan Moeller soon. Any fans? I also like Lee Childs but Hollywood messed up the picture in my mind of former Military Police Major 6’5” 250 lb. Jack Reacher by having him played by 5’7” Tom Cruise? Whatever. My smoke of the evening is my homemade cigarette blend consisting of 40% flue cured, 20% TN90 burley, 20% Maryland 609, 10% VA355 dark air, and 10% Prilep. It’s smoooooth cough. So, whatcha readin‘ and smokin’?

the tv show jack reacher is more realistic as the guy who plays jack is actually built like a tank and 6"2 a little short i guess but yea waaay better to watch than tom cruise in his high heels

I'm about to watch the movie "Parrish" (1961) on TCM starring Troy Donahue, Claudette Colbert, and Karl Malden. Maybe I will get to see some nice tobacco plants.
"A poor young man (Troy Donahue) cuts a swath in the Connecticut tobacco world; then his mother (Claudette Colbert) marries a big shot planter."
Starts at 1:30 pm eastern.

Nice tip, just tuned in a bit late. Got some stuff to do but I am recording it for later. Missed maybe twenty minutes.

movie "Parrish" (1961)

I watched it in...um...1961.

[Plinsc]

I was 3 years in the making still in 61!

 

[Knucklehead]

That was great seeing the cold frames, seedlings, acres of shade cloth, stringing the plants to the overhead wires, tobacco barns, sticks, antique planters, wire worms, blue mold, irrigation, hanging tobacco in the barns, etc, all in living color from 62 years ago. Good movie, too.

I used to read alot, till I had to wear reading glasses, then I quit. I loved westerns and fine woodworking books, sci-fi is out of this world.
