What else do you want to know?
Are you handy around the house?
Can you fish?
I'm not so good with pies, dump cake in the dutch oven
is more my speciality along with BBQ, I can make ash cakes though, and am a fair hunter, and a mechanical whiz.
I think the authors problem is trying to meet someone
in a BAR.
I gave up alcohol tobacco and drugs years ago
and am not much fun at parties.
Now it's just me and "Digger" the worlds smartest dog tm.
In your post to another freeper you got that right tet68. Unfortunately the only thing you'll find in a bar is overpriced beer and losers.
Can you do hoe cakes? Or is that what you are referring to as ash cakes?
I could take my Dutch oven, a bow or gun, (knife of course)and a fishing pole and live fine forever in the woods.
Nothing tastes as good as food cooked over an open fire. I have a firepit outside in my yard and cook there often, especially in the fall and winter.

You sound swell - alot like the gentleman I am currently seeing.
I'm not so handy around the house. I can rewire a lamp, and replace the washers in a faucet, but I can't do much more than that. I have been lucky to have close male friends who are very good at that kind of thing, who will work for food.
I can fish, and hunt pheasant, but I don't clean the fish or game. (Mom told me not to learn how to do that or I'd be stuck with the job forever...haha) I do bait my own hooks, though. So do all 5 of my kids.
Dump cake in a dutch oven is ambrosia as far as I am concerned, and I'll eat darn near anything you grill, unless you put sweet bbq sauce on it, and then I will politely ask you to leave the sweet stuff off of mine.
I'll bet you are great fun at parties - you are the one telling the good stories that most people miss because they are too busy drinking and impressing each other.
I agree that trying to meet people in a bar is not a good plan if you are looking for a mate. However, I am a musician, and that is where I meet most people. Difference is, I'm there to play music, not to hook up. The man I am seeing right now is also a musician, and while we met in a bar, it was not a pick-up deal. We shared that common interest, and found that we had even more in common than a love for blues.
That seems to be the best way to meet people with whom you want to have a meaningful relationship, whether as a friend or mate - connecting over a commonly held interest or value. Hooking up in bars is too shallow for my tastes, though I will admit that I have met interesting people there. Just wouldn't want to be married to most of them!
PS - I think the pecan pie would ship, but I'm not at all sure about the meringues...
