What is the perfect meal?
Today I think I made the best dinner ever. I chopped up some jalapenos, mixed in some cream cheese and chedder cheese, put it inside of some chicken breast and wrapped it all up in bacon and smoked it in the smoker.
I recorded it all for my third episode of Deranged Eats, so don't worry, you will get to see how it was all done. It was an experiment and boy did it turn out delicous. There is something about cooking in the smoker that makes meat taste so much better. This chicken bacon popper went perfectly with a side salad for an awesome dinner tonight.
We had our niece and her boyfriend over for dinner and we ate, we played some VR games.
Awesome Announcement For Veterans on Steemit
Earlier today @guiltyparties came into the Military Veteran Discord and let us know that @steemitboard has made a badge for all of the military veterans on Steemit. You can read SteemitBoard and the Veterans on Steemit - The First Community Badge and get some insight on the creation of the badge.
There is a lot of signifigance behind the design of the badge. They did an amazing job with it. To some it might looks just like a flower pot with some dog tags poking out of it, but to a military veteran, the red poppy holds a significant meaning.
This poem by John McCrae sums it all up.
In Flanders Fields
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place, and in the sky,
The larks, still bravely singing, fly,
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead; short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe!
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high!
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

I just want to give a huge shout out to @guiltyparties, @arcange, and @steemitboard for their part in creating this badge. This is a badge of honor for all those who have served and the poppy represents all of our fallen brothers and sisters, no matter what nation you represent. We are all Veterans here on this platform. We have all suffered and lost and this badge is for all of us. Thank you again.
