On today’s podcast of cooking with Kev we will be preparing and grilling chicken kabobs ( used a new marinade recipe) and making my word famous garlic aioli. My youngest son just smothered a venison burger in it. So good and so easy to make.

Why are you making a single serving? Nobody else is eating?
 
Right now it's a 110 with a Siamese Algae eater, a single ghost shrimp, several cuttings of Pothos, and an Amazon Sword.
Going for the minimalist look, I like it!
 
Will it be a planted tank? Yes, eventually.
Back around 2004 I had a 125g that was heavily planted. I had the CO2 reactor, CO2 tank, regulator, the whole set up. It was beautiful to look at with the plethora of plants in the tank. Then... the big "D" happened (not what you are thinking Kevin) and I went through a divorce (that's the big "D" Kevin), sold everything at quite the loss.
 
Billy Dee Williams played baseball? Thought he faded out after Lando in Star Wars
Your baseball look alikes are quickly becoming a favorite of mine lol
 
Absolutely, what would a Friday be without a podcast? I’ve had some protein marinating since yesterday. I’ll give you a hint, it tastes like gator.

I try because I honestly know very little about sports. Not that I don't enjoy sports or playing sports, I just rarely watch TV. I'm serious when I say we have one TV in the house and it's a 32". The last time it was on was probably 4 months ago to watch the season finale of Virgin River.

Aline? I will look that up. I'm always down for a good show or series when the weather is bad and I can't (don't want to) be outside.
