@TheEyeOfBalor so much chocolate!!!

If your bacon to Brussels sprouts ratio isn’t nearly 1:1, what are you doing to yourself? #larryskitchen

I have come to the decision that I'm just going to set my controller down when The Butcher appears on the field. I just cannot find a way to beat it. #DiablolV

@FinnegansWhacked love this bit!!!

Just one of many gorgeous stops along Highway 101 - Pacific Coast Scenic Highway. 🌈

Heading north on Highway 101 along the coast and stopping to take pictures along the way. It might take double time to get home. 😁
