Just thought I would pop in and introduce myself and let you know a little bit about me...
I have been reading PA off and on for the last five years and absolutely love the idea of making my tackle! I have yet to make anything but have started on blunts (today is day one :laugh:) and have some wood that I have cured for a self bow..... For everything I am mostly going to use local materials..... I noticed that everyone likes pics and regular updates so I will do my best to make those of you happy to that respect.

Welcome! Always glad to see new people join. Where you from?
-
I am born, bred and raised in Southern California, Bevan. I live out in the sticks away from all the hustle, bustle and noise if you believe such a thing exists in So. Cal. LoL
-
Welcome Spitch. Looking forward to having you join us.
-
Legionnaire is in your area, relatively speaking. He builds some really great native American stuff.
Welcome to the addiction, it only gets worse.
-
Lived for a time in Fallbrock (between LA & SD) while in the service. Still have family in SD & LA as well. Welcome and looking forward to getting to know you.
-
Thank you Halverson (Mr.? Or is it your city?), I will have to talk to Legionnaire some time.
Fallbrook is not far from me, Bevan. I often have to go back down there for work... I live in a small town called Anza, North East of Fallbrook maybe 30 miles as the crow flies. It is not on most maps. We are a "high desert".
So, if anyone out there needs me to find something native to deserty areas let me know. :D
-
Welcome ,I think you will like it here,it's like one big [most times] Happy family. ;) :) :)
Pappy
-
Thank you everyone, I feel most welcome :D
-
Glad you feel welcome. It's your turn to do the dishes.
Pappy warned you we were a family! There's chores, son!
-
Lol, sure I'll do the dishes and cook.... Made the Borscht last night, cannot wait to see what it tastes like tonight.
Just please do not ask me to dust, I hate dusting :(
-
Borscht? There is nothing better at this time of year than hearty peasant soups. I'm coming out of a nasty cold/flu/whatchamacallit and you'd think I would be sick of soup by now, but I'm thinking of whipping out a batch of borscht for supper! Oh, and some dark rye bread with cheese on the side.
-
Rofl! I had to explain to a Texan yesterday what a "peasants soup/stew" was. I used the recipe in the latest PA... Best one I have ever had (sorry, but I had to cut the carroway back so my kids would eat it)
-
Adding caraway to my grocery list...gotta have it in my rye bread recipe anyway. Yeah caraway can get carried away sometimes. Young palates are not resilient enough to tolerate those stronger flavors.
Texican borscht...with chili peppers!
-
Welcome from Central California!!
JW, borscht with chili peppers !!!
Don't tell my Siberian wife she uses beets :o
-
Thank you coaster500. Hope that you have been having the same unseasonably warm weather we have 8)
After having about eight bowls of borscht I am not certain that it would be good with chilies... Isn't that just fancy chili (the stew) anyway?
-
Hey Spitch ! Welcome to P.A. Spent my early years in Bakersfield. (Born in Tulare) Got alot of family down in the valley still. Good to have you here. Enjoy ' Frank
-
Thank you Frank. I am a bit further south than that, lol. But I do have some family in Tehatchapi... It is much more than a prison/train town now.
I have been enjoying this site and the people on it. It is great!
-
A californican who says "y'all", well you must be an alright guy ;)
Welcome aboard, may the addiction grow strong in you >:D
-
Lol, k-hat! One of my adopted moms is from Kentucky, and my family has strong ties in the south... I will say some funny things for a Yankee, lol
Already, had the addition for a long time... Just doing something constructve with it :D
-
Welcome Spitch. It's a "BIG" family! We agree, and disagree, and sometimes bicker, but we are a big family, with a whole lot of knowledge to be gleaned by all who enter, and all who are already in. ;) JW, and Coastal, do you have a recipe for your Borscht, and dark bread? I just recently got a refurbished Kitchen Aide 600 stand mixer, and I've been going nuts with it. :o ;D ;D Beets are definitely one of the many veggies, that will be in my Garden in Montana! I love pickled beets especially! ;) I am going to make some dark bread, and some rye bread, love the Caraway seeds. I have some just waiting to be opened. I wonder if they are cooked, or sterilized, as I would like to try growing them. Friend of mine used to raise Apps years ago, and had a big sack of rye seeds, used to get a handfull of them, and eat them. Wouldn't do that today, as they are probably treated with a full chemistry set, like some of the packaged products approved, by the FDA, or should I say Monsanto, since all the top echelon are former Monsanto employees. The stuff they are allowed to put in the food now, is scary! You would be safer eating a Chinese toy, than some of the approved food products. Going to make a lot of use of my garden!
Again Spitch welcome aboard, looking forward to seeing any projects you have in the works, and enjoy the madness with the rest of us.
