I have an 09 Avalanche. 14K miles!

You read that right!

You only drive it on Sundays? To the mailbox and back?

Your Black Forest looks amazing! I am gonna have to get yer mind right on Okra though…

 

[Lilianna23]

You might just have a point.

You wanna ride shotgun for me?

I don't know how to shoot! You might need to ask Wat, Greylag, or Wonderer.

I’m a weirdo but I LOVE eggplant parm

And I also love spinach lasagna

I love spinach lasagne! I make a good one.

 

[Rj_1954]

So mean!

She's my Domme

 

[Lilianna23]

Eggplant is heinous and should be outlawed. Take Lima beans and Brussel sprouts too.

I'll take your lima beans and Brussels sprouts! Try roasting the sprouts in the oven or air fryer with olive oil and garlic. So good!

 

[Lilianna23]

My no fly zone (no eat zone?) is rhubarb, green pepper, brussel sprouts, and radicchio

I like green peppers but they no longer like me.

 

[Wonderer67]

I haz a '15 Ram 1500. Just turned 101K miles.

Whachoo got???

Looks amazing

Thank you! I was told for years by my sister how hard cheesecake was to make. I decided to try after I retired. They're so EASY! I just bought jumbo muffin pans for making minis.

 

[Lilianna23]

A little birdie told me that you have delicious tartlets.

Alright! Who's talking here?!?

 

[Lilianna23]

Good evening lilli!

The hotel last night was like out of my cousin Vinny! First the TV turned itself on at 2:32 AM! No idea why.

I finally found out how to turn it off, and was starting to snooze back to sleep when a garbage truck started emptying garbage bins at 3:30.

Finally at five I said fuck it got up and worked out!

So…productive …

OMG! I'm so sorry, Wonderer! Nothing like being out of town for work and not being able to sleep! I hope you do better tonight!

You're right! It does look like a trap!

Thank you for the validation! Thought I was getting punchy jumping from code pulls to greeting cards.

I don’t mind strawberry rhubarb pie. But not my first choice

I would need to make my own. Think I might like it if it was made without any sugar - and no artificial sweeteners either. Sweet enough with all the sugar from the strawberries - for me. Willing to be proven wrong - might be a good experiment to try...mmm, maybe tartlet size first. I don't need a whole-ass pie all for myself!

Have you ever made eggplant lasagna?? OMG

I love spinach lasagne! I make a good one.

With the white sauce? Delish!

I'll take your lima beans and Brussels sprouts! Try roasting the sprouts in the oven or air fryer with olive oil and garlic. So good!

Roasting with an infused olive oil!
I roasted a mushroom medly with Carmelized Onion and Cilantro olive oil. Then roasted shaved Brussels sprouts with a Wild Mushroom and Sage olive oil. Then used both as toppings for a white pizza. OGM - yum!!

What’re you?? The little old lady from Pasadena….

Actually it was my H's truck. I bought it for his birthday in 09. 6 months later he was declared legally blind.

Since we've been retired, I just don't drive that much. I am starting to drive it to the gym weekly now.

 

[Wonderer67]

Second nights usually the charm.

Plus there’s a dispensary literally right down the street!

 

[Lilianna23]

Actually, you may have mentioned that previously, and we talked about getting it out and about so it doesn't decompose in place. Now I remember. It's all coming back to me.

I took yours and Wonderer's advice on that. I'm now driving it to the gym weekly. It's about a 45 minute drive so he gets nice and hot. I also drive it when we get plants or do big Costco shopping.

My favorite cheesecake to make is a black forest. I make my own cherry pie filling. I also make a wonderful blueberry cheesecake.View attachment 2347422View attachment 2347423

Omg Lili…..

Black Forest Torte is my fave, and this looks so freaking good!!

Ok I may need some quality alone time…

Thank you, HDH!

You can have ALL the okra! Slimy, nasty stuff!

Yeah might not help me to have you accidentally shoot me…

It’s a 53 studebaker pickup.

You took my advice.


Wonderer was a'wishin' an' a'hopin' . . . .





In other news, they shipped my new rifle stock. It should be to the house when I get there this Friday.

 

[Wonderer67]

you boys armed girls were a busy lot today!

Off for dinner.

yes! I make my own white sauce from a roux. Put just a pinch of nutmeg in it!

Your veggie toppings sound SO freaking good! I will have to try it. I've recently learned how to make pizza. I make a no-knead crust that is yummy!

One of my recents. Chicken, artichoke, parmesan, bacon, pine nuts, with a pesto sauce.
