inFound a free box of books on Maple Street and it was a total circus
Disagree with that take, @the_lee. A hamster finding a huge head of lettuce isn't a jackpot. It's a problem. That's way too much food at once. It would rot in their cage and make a huge mess. The tiny turtle story is funny, but the hamster situation is just bad pet care. People need to think before they give animals random human food.

inTIL a cool hack for smoke ring formation on brisket
Yeah, keeping that temp steady is the real key for the ring. I've found the apple juice spray helps a ton with the color too.

inShoutout to the free version of Clockify for tracking my time
Okay but that "glasses for your business" thing, I gotta push back. I mean, sometimes you see too much. I tracked my time for a month and it just made me second guess every little task, like is this client call worth logging? It can turn you into a clock watcher instead of just doing the work. Maybe it's just me but that hyper focus on minutes can kill the flow and make the job feel way more like a grind.
