If you're not a supporter, this is a good reason to be one! Every month of the year is a $100 LiveAquaria gift card and a Octo Aquatics SHU Acclimation Box. Most months there's a 3rd prize from a sponsor. This one is from Dr Reefs $300 gift card, August is Camaro Show Corals $300 coral surprise box. They've done Reef by Steele, Reef Plantation, and Dinkins Aquatic Garden in the past.
 
It’s a great game. I think i like it more than the kids do
My brother-in-law spent more time at my house than at his parents house growing up. He had quite the setup on Animal Crossing. My wife played Kirby's Epic Yarn which is basically Kirby meets Animal Crossing so we had Kirby houses and Animal Crossing houses going on at my house
 
On this week’s podcast of Sunday cooking with Kev, I will be making a pasta dish that I thought was my wife’s. But when I made it she loved it asked where I got the recipe. I said I pieced it together from when she used to make it. She said she never made it. A dream? Hot peppers, tomatoes and some of the garlic are from the garden. First time trying the Hungarian hot peppers, we’ll see if they are mild medium or hot. My momma always told me that Hungarian hot peppers are like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re going to get.😉
