I hope you got good sleep, G!

I did thank you....never enough but good!

I grate cold (real) butter into my scones when making them. It makes them very flaky and melt-in-your-mouth.

You'll have to see if @Greylag can send you some authentic Scottish scones. He lives there.

Big hug and squeeze! Hope you are doing well, Blue! https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXffukmpOJGpftFpUaSRLc6HD8oSBw-uuC9lpJ4HzQHW2TjWh24fAHl8868_ix0HVTVI9LUzTTqN3kHhesDh8V9xGIG6vEoFXpHIQN3jGDBVpax4YKx81mwfXnilBecBCpjYwWT80Xrz92yHq1dXdgjkYRhF?key=jY9Az0Ixp_0zToql93IJFw

This looks yummy!

I tried this once. We ended up ordering pizza at 2330...

Normally I make fettuccine fairly thin (I don't have a spaghetti extruder sadly) this iteration was set pretty thick to put with a beef brandy and mushroom sauce from leftovers. The noodle came out like an Amish thick egg noodle as intended. I have a severe distaste for wasting food if I've been blessed enough to obtain it. AI like the challenge of making something wonderful out of scraps whenever possible.

My niece used to work for Starbucks. She just HAD to go to the original store. I kelp telling her Pike Place is fairly overrated but took her anyway...

yeah, we get that w/ a certain landmark here, too
more when it was first built
tried to bookend it with flights in/out since it's @ 5 min from the airport. puts both @ 45 min from where we live.

I had a pup many years ago who had the one ear up and one ear down. She had it as a puppy when I first got her and kept it always. Occasionally she would have both up, but as soon as she would tilt her head it would pop back down. She was goofy. If I was laying on the floor and it took her a minute to notice me there, she would get a goofy grin (if you can call it that) and run and dive sideways into my body snuggling up like it was for her lol. She was huge too. I would have to brace for it.

For sure sounds like sven..... he has no sense if personal space

That is amazing... I like to do the same thing.... but if all else fails... the chickens will eat it... I got some acorn squash that I roasted and never roasted. It was large enough but like never ripened inside.... this weather is odd.... I gave to the chickens

I've seen bees and the hummers in my fuchsias! I love that!

Im exactly the same way. I get all crazy when food goes bad. I am an expert at making use of leftovers and when we have too much stuff.

Stirfrys, salad toppings, soups, sauces.

I hate throwing food out. We do compost an all of fruit and veggy scraps and leftovers.

I watered plants, took my girl on some walkies, and got some minor things done.

I've started a "Shit To Do" list on my phone. Seems I can't keep things in my head very well now. I do feel VERY productive when I can cross something off my list.

one of my SIL gave me a "Lists" notepad for my birthday
it so much!!

We need to know more about the incident, please!

tldr
bad sunburn
well-meaning family friend
vinegar from head to toe

Pro Tip: vinegar does not, in fact, help take the heat/sting out of sunburn. It does make you smell like a and hate vinegar for the rest of your life

This was 40+ yrs ago and I still can only tolerate small amounts of vinegar

 

[likes2watchU]

Same. I had to do the same thing. Now it’s a habit.

BTW caught you

I just... like... lists

happy that lists helped you out

caught up for the moment
that deserves another cup of IMO
(I've only picked up my empty mug @ 5 times now to take another sip )

What is SSS?

old school acronym

Good Morning! I slept in a bit today, so I'm on cup 1 still. Unless you actually measure out Cups, in which case I'm probably on 4. (mega mug )

where is @Oldermom935 with her coffee memes when you need her??

Cup three??

Your an overachiever.

Do you guys remember these commercials? The coffee achievers (brought to you by the national society of coffee producers of course)

Coffee is working now....still waiting for that much needed first cup

I got hiccups right now.

I read that first part differently
not a fan of hiccups - hope they're gone by now!!

I did thank you....never enough but good!

mixed feelings on this one
glad you got good sleep but bummed you got short-changed

It’s bad enough to look like one, but no… 100% real!!

This will tell you more about the advertising campaign.

@ImpishSeraph - which wonder twin you wanna be? The one that turns into animals or the one that turns into forms of water?
