I just checked Portillo's website. It's $69.95 for 1 pound of beef, gravy, peppers, rolls with 2 day shipping. I'll wait until I get in May and bring home about 10 pounds and it'll go as baggage.
On Sunday we bought a N scale steam engine and a couple of coal cars. We're going to build a train layout in the shop. Also picked up a '65 Chevelle kit at the train show.
Interesting, Mike. I didn't know you could bring a bunch of pizza onboard. I tried with some frozen Portillo's beef with gravy and it had to go as checked in baggage. Frozen or not - it's still a liquid.
The shipping deal is very expensive. Last time I checked, a pound of Portillo's beef with gravy was around $57 shipped overnight to FLA. Too much. We found a recipe online for Italian beef and make it every so often.
You're a sick puppy, Neal - doing that to a Mercedes. But I actually like the thought you put into it. The door handles, gas cap, screens, horn, and I love the shift knob. Weathering is superb.
There's water all over the place around you, Stu. Nobody sells fishing line? Do you have a craft store? They usually have an assortment of wire in the bead section.
Looking nice, Stu. I use a variety of things for fuelines - 20 lb test fishing line (comes in clear and translucent red), different gauges of wire, #1 Beadalon beading crimps for fittings. I'm fairly cheap and don't like spending lots of money on braided lines and A/N fittings.
