The secret to that is only going out for a few minutes at a time to check on progress and then going back in.

Probably a sheet pan dinner featuring garlic and jalapeno smoked sausage links with fresh from the garden cabbage steaks (or wedges), onions, and peppers. DH says I MUST smother the cabbage in parm. I have no objection to that, lol.

we've switched to buying the precooked bacon crumbles in a bag, so there is no cook time other than to crisp it up in the microwave for 20-30 seconds and there is no large amounts of bacon grease to deal with. we don't use it in cooking anyways (Mom really doesn't like smoked anything other than bacon and braunschweiger and i think with the braunschweiger she doesn't know it's smoked).
as for being outside with bare feet in snow i do at times shovel in my crocs without socks. the socks get wet and hold the snow and moisture where my feet might get a little wet but they feel warmer. today, however i got out with the winter boots because it was windy enough and powder snow that wearing crocs would not have worked well.

Last night I tried a hanging tender also called hanger steak, hanging tenderloin or butcher’s steak. I can't ever remember having eat one before. There is only one per beef.
The hype "a cut of beef prized for its flavor and tenderness". Is absolutely correct. its heavy on beef flavor and very tender. It's semi round so I cooked it on two sides, then butterflied it and cooked the open butterfly pan side down until the juices ran clear and it was still tender even well done.
Of you get a chance to try one, I highly doubt you'll be disappointed.
