Javelina is a different species from a feral pig. It's also known as a collared peccary. Peccaries evolved in the New World, razorback hogs are an introducted species from the Old World.

CW,
I expect comments like that from bl---dy politicians not forum bosses. I can't help it that I am also beautiful.

One of my other obsessions. No grandchildren yet. No dog, no cat, to pose with. But hey, I still crack a smile occasionally.

Those chanterelles are called Pfifferling in Germany. My dad used to rave over them when he was talking about the Black Forest he grew up in. When I finally got to taste them on layovers I finally understood what the fuss was all about. They are just divine. What a pity we can't grow them here.
I have managed to grow some shiitake though.

Yet another intelligent-looking gentleman on this forum! And a darn good bacon maker by the looks of things. Orf, I love your stove! Had one very much like it growing up on the ranch. It was my job to keep the coal bucket filled. Your stove is quite a bit fancier than the old thing we had, but it surely does bring back some good ol' memories! Thanks for posting.

Best Wishes,
Chuckwagon

...mind sharing the recipe? I've been trying for years to get the same consistency and hole structure as Bays English muffins, and just can't hit it. Thanks.
