Short, usually silly songs that might make you smile.
My wife and I went to Austin. I still miss it. So does she.
I miss the food, the people, the music, and especially the fact that they had a record high temperature of 91 degrees while we visited. Meanwhile, back at home, you could add 9 and 1 and get close to the temperature.
I really hope to go back someday, but for now, I have this song and pictures.

Don’t get me wrong, I love a good dive restaurant. I’ll bypass what might look like roaches on the wall, a dirty bathroom, but if that sandwich is tasty, “special sauce” might just be the key. However, I have also become somewhat food spoiled.
Here, in the Chicago area, I have dined at fantastic restaurants like Alinea, Next, Momotaro, Girl and The Goat, Schwa, Smyth and The Loyalist, and many more. I like to separate the flavors, add them all together in one bite, and enjoy a glass of wine that pairs perfectly with the meal.
Yes, I like fancy dining. I also like a good funeral hot dog, although I hate the fact that it’s at a funeral. Is that so wrong?

Maybe not my best song, but it’s just one of those days, and one of those songs.
Go ahead, sit on a couch, maybe see a mouse, or just go, go, go! Whatever you do, it will also be more fun with a hat, especially if it makes you look kind of like a pirate.

This is one of those songs where I’m not really sure where it came from, nor do I understand how I ended up using words like “math” and “throwing.”
But I did, so enjoy.

All I know is I’m glad I don’t have that many friends on Facebook sometimes. I see people with thousands of friends, or even hundreds of friends, and I wonder how they handle all of the birthday notices.
Seriously, am I supposed to wish every one of my friends a happy birthday? Thankfully I’ve only got a hundred or so friends on Facebook (not the https://www.facebook.com/songsbyandy page, that one needs more people liking it!), and I know most of those folks, but those of you with a thousand or more, do you just give up?
In any case, happy birthday to all of you, whenever you have a birthday!

Every time you wake up in the morning you never really know what is going to happen that day.
Some days go exactly as planned, and some days you feel like you might be falling over a cliff. I hope that today brings you a jackpot instead of a car careening over a cliff.

I guess this end of the year, beginning of the year time has got me feeling inspired.
With my end of December songs about making decisions, a chance to be a new you, and this January one trying to help you along with that New Year’s Resolution that you already gave up on, I’m kind of feeling like Mr. Inspiration!
If you did quit your resolutions already, don’t fret. Consider it a stumble and get going again because, for example, if you wanted to lose weight, won’t it be nice in a few months when you don’t eat so much lunch? 😊

For your Friday, here are some Kauai sunsets. Just in case you need them.
I know I do. Why?
Well, I have to say that I can’t wait for this November to end. It has been cold and gave us that “Here comes winter!” blast of snow.
It has made me tired, cranky, and dreaming of the sunsets we saw in Kauai last year, where even when they seemed sucky, and we were hanging out with chickens waiting for our rental car, they really didn’t suck.
I also can’t remember words that rhyme with “south.”

It was a cold November here near Chicago. At the time I sang this song I believe I was losing my mind, and that is not a good sign for me if the winter is going to continue this way.
I’m not really ready for winter, but what choice do I have?

We were the hosting family for Thanksgiving this year, and it was discussed early on that I might try to cook a turkey on our Kamado Joe grill.
I didn’t really want to risk figuring out if the cook would go well on Turkey Day, so a few weeks before Thanksgiving I did a “test run” of cooking a turkey on the grill.
I’ve got to say that the turkey grilling came out fantastic, even in the freezing weather. I used a combination of methods to get the bird to come out great.
First off, I probably watched John Setzler’s video about cooking a turkey in the Kamado Joe about a million times, or at least a couple dozen. I loved his “smoking pouch.” Find his video here:
Then I needed a brine, and my wife decided this one, using Old Bay and Chinese Five Spice sounded good. P.S. It was a good choice.
Then I needed to find the recipe that John referenced in his video, from Paul Sidoriak and the book, “Exclusively Kamado.”
Granted I just sing a lot and don’t show all the prep work, but if you have a kamado kind of grill, like the Kamado Joe or Big Green Egg, these are some great recipes for a holiday turkey. The brine was fine, I’ve never had this good of a smoked turkey, and for the love of all things big and small, if you like smokey, make gravy out of the broth and stuff under the turkey.
