yeah those are back ones. Planes have front ones. Same thing just for spins and push pull!

As many others, it's all about comfort food. But, I felt the need to shoot it first.

Pst.

In July 1917, Franz Josef Popp registered the name Bayerische Motoren Werke, thus distancing the new company from the former Rapp Motorenwerke aero engine company. This was a necessary move if the new company was to find new clients and prosper. While the name was registered there wasn’t yet a new logo.

It was on October 5, 1917 the BMW trademark was registered with the Imperial Trade Mark Roll under No. 221388. It featured the circular design of the Rapp logo but with the letters BMW at the top of the outer ring. The inner quadrants featured the Bavarian Free State colors of blue and white – but in the opposite order – as it was illegal to use national symbols in a commercial trademark.

The design was not in any way connected with aircraft engines or propellers. The idea that the blue and white had anything to do with spinning propellers comes from a 1929 advertisement, which featured aircraft with the image of the Roundel in the rotating propellers. This advertisement came at the beginning of the Great Depression, which coincided with BMW acquiring the license to build Pratt & Whitney radial aircraft engines. The advertising department used the Roundel and BMW heritage in an attempt to increase sales of the new radial motors.

The idea of the spinning propellers was given greater credence in an article by Wilhelm Farrenkopf in a BMW journal of 1942. This also featured an image of an aircraft with a spinning Roundel. These were powerful images and the legend of the spinning propeller was born.

kscarrol mentioned North of Asheville in another thread, which made me think of North Asheville, which made me think of chicken parm at Vinnie’s. So that’s where we went and what I had. (With a side meatball. Glad we ate early.)

Check out this bad boy. I've been thinking about a Hawaiian BBQ style burger for some time now. Today was the day. I made a bacon and onion relish with some Hawaiian bbq sauce mixed in during the final stages. It was like a candied bbq bacon flavor (excellent). Grilled up a pineapple ring along with the standard 80/20 pattie and doubled down on the havarti cheese. It tasted as good as it looks.

Bought 2lbs of wild caught colossal shrimp, boiled half with some Old Bay, bay leaves, cracked pepper and sea salt. Chilled those for shrimp cocktail and used the other half for a made from scratch shrimp scampi with linguine.

Forgot to take a picture. Oh well.

Michigan peach tart
Recipe modified from Bruno Albouze’s peach and lavender tart

Hazelnut pastry crust, vanilla custard with diced Michigan peaches and white chocolate ganache whipped cream. Nearing the end of the batch of Michigan peaches I froze this summer. The peaches’ color, flavor and texture has held up well in the freezer.

I didn't recall it was from the movie face/off, but I understood what was implied. I stand by what I said. That said, I'm not overly selfless in that regard either, so that no doubt influences my take on the situation.

Only when my tongue is sprained after. Sometimes I go at it sideways.
