Well, hey Bill and everybody on the net this is Justin kk7 QES that's going great over here I'm on vacation for two weeks. So I'm in a really good mood Yeah, and yeah great to hear you calling the net tonight and and to see you out on the mesh as well Cool stuff. Yeah, I am certainly having fun with that And hope everyone's doing great. Happy solstice and happy festivus and Merry Christmas and and all that to everybody And Bill, I hope you and your family are doing well. My family had a really fun day. We decided to be crazy people and go out to finish some Christmas shopping. And somehow, we avoided crazy crowds and all that stuff. I don't know. We went over to Redmond after lunchtime, like early afternoon. And we just had a great time together. We went to a bike shop. My wife was looking for a new mountain bike. And so she was kind of test driving a few things. And we spent well over an hour at Half Price Books and we probably could have spent twice as much time there but we wanted to kind of cool my girls. They each picked out a book and then they found out kind of a little corner to read in. And my wife and I each found some books. We were looking for books for my parents and her parents and selfishly for ourselves. I found a really cool confectionery cookbook. I guess it's for myself and my girls. I'm gonna give it to them on Christmas morning, but there's all sorts of really cool desserts and things in there that I know they will be super excited to make. And then we went and we picked out one of the girls and they went and picked out Christmas ornaments for each other. Sort of a little tradition that we've been dealing. And then we went to H Mart and restocked the pantry. So that was, it was really fun. And I just hung out. I cooked dinner. Just felt like a really nice cozy evening. And I made a lemon pepper chicken. And then there's this Brussels sprout recipe that I love that I did with it. It's almost like a Cacio e Pepe Brussels sprouts. So there's lots of Parmesan cheese and black pepper. Oh man, so good. My girls don't like brussel sprouts though, but my wife said it was wonderful. And I did, I also did sweet potato fries with curry ketchup because you have to have curry ketchup. All right, that's all I got. I'm thoroughly enjoying all the check-ins tonight. Thanks Bill for having it. This is KK7 QES back to Nat. I always enjoy your hearing about your Saturdays with your family and I'm thinking of Christmas coming up. So to visualize it, all of us on the net, I want to know how old your daughters are, just so we can think of their happy faces, Christmas shopping and Christmas morning. And then I want to hear a little bit more about this cachet pâté brussel sprouts. By the way, most kids don't like brussel sprouts, so that's not surprising. But how do you do the brussel sprouts?
