OK…I found PhotoGirls recipe and drink thread here.

Check out how she formatted the recipes! . Very cool. I’m positive I had contributed but couldn’t find my entry. B2 has something on there I think.

I’ll send her a PM and ask how she did that…I assume it’s as easy as just taking it to a Word doc and using a template? Anyhow….I think it would be a good addition to our little community as we seem to have a fair amount of good cooks hanging around this Cafe/Pub/All night greasy spoon!

Awesome. I’ll add a boatload of recipes! Great idea.

7&7 was my first hard drink when I was in my 20s. My preference is a gin and tonic these summer like days.

Big fan of 7 and 7.

Ended up having a great day.

Power went out around noon. We were all stuck. Everyone on our road couldn’t get in or out. I guess if there was an emergency they woulda figured something out. We were shuttling people back and forth on quads and utv’s from the main rd to their houses. Was kinda fun.

Ended up hosting a big neighborhood cookout. We were planning for 12, but had a bunch of frozen burgers so must’ve had 35-40 people at our place. Ran out of buns, and plastic ware.

Good time: nice fire, good food, good neighbors, fun company.

Still no power. They replaced the poles abt an hour ago and then the power co will continue to work. Maybe tomrrow.

You lot were busy and active again today. I love it.

@Wonderer67 Sounds like a great Stone Soup type cookout! Glad you turned the day around and had a great time with the neighbors.
power is restored soon!

Morning Lil, I see your up early. Bright eyed and bushy tailed... (nothing personal)

OK! Who told???

 

[Lilianna23]

Morning B2. Off to make breakfast... You two behave.

WHAT??? We're angels!

 

[Lilianna23]

I miss my tooth. No pain so that is good.

Are you getting an implant?

 

[Lilianna23]

Good morning OM I was amazed at the number of comments last night. It’s good to know the thread is becoming active and fun.

IKR? This thread has been fun and lively from the jump! Thanks @Wonderer67!

 

[Lilianna23]

Girls brought up right are very good after the lights are off.

Yes! Yes, we are!

 

[Lilianna23]

What’s for breakfast? I am going to brunch and then an afternoon with friends.

Which two?

Behave how?

Was brunch good? Afternoon? Are you getting that line of storms where you are, B2?

 

[Lilianna23]

A nasty thunderstorm line is forming in the central plains of the USA and moving towards the Midwest. So watch out RJ and NB and others as the storms may spawn tornadoes towards the evening.

Stay safe, everyone!

Happy Sunday, Ma'am and all, as opposed to momenem. Slept okay. It was good to have cats. It looks like if I'm going to get the grass cut that it's going to be today, and if I get in a motorcycle ride (or 2 - or 3) that it might be a damp one. If it's hot and it gets wet, it's not too bad, all in all.


On the ride home yesterday, I saw some cars. Of note. A Superbird!!! A '37 Tudor sedan. A '40 Ford Tudor sedan. A '52(?) Packard sedan - not entirely sure of the year but it was definitely a straight-eight model. And a metric shit-ton(tonne?) of bikes-n-bikers. It was a pretty day to ride - mostly. There was the very prepared couple on the BMW flapping a long in their rain suits. There was the fuck-it-all couple on their H-D Ultra in tshirts drying out from the pass through the showers. I was out of the helmet-optional states by the time I saw folks, so no one was bare-headed.


My reproduction rifle stock arrived and boy is it lovely. Damned fine looking walnut. A bit lighter colored than the old stuff, so I may wander to the store and score some fruitwood stain (or the like). I have some Special Walnut but feel it may be too dark. Then again, I can test-stain the barrel trough and see what I think.


Time for a coffee refill.

Did you get a ride in, Wat? Do you take any of the cats along?

Post a pic of your new rifle, please!

 

[Lilianna23]

You exactly right - more vehicle, less patience and fewer driving skills. And more time driving distracted because of the damned phone.


I'm taking the bike out today, so wish me luck.

Stay safe, Wat!

 

[Lilianna23]

The thread thrives because of you and the others being so involved. Us youngsters are just along for the ride... As I see it you're the cab driver of life.

Awww! That is so sweet, OM!

 

[Lilianna23]

Morning to you all! Sunny and a perfect day here, and I have it off!!

WHOO-HOO! What did you do with your day?

 

[Lilianna23]

You and Lil. I'm not stupid I can recognize two mature rebels when I see them...

Cue "Shocked Pikachu Face!"

I'm just a mild-mannered, demure lady from the PNW where we're always polite!

 

[Lilianna23]

Hopefully the sun peeks out a bit

Not here today! Did you get any? Sun, Sin!

 

[Lilianna23]

Lmao oops I need to wake up more

When I read that I thought you said that he and Lil are for breakfast

More coffee….

And a tasty breakfast that would be!

 

[Lilianna23]

Lol. I better keep a closer eye on them two...lol
