Goodnight all.

Busy weekend and busy week on tap. All good tho.

To all those going back to work or starting your school years, have a pleasant start to your week.

It'll be the feline version of a puppy pile when I crash tonight.


I did have some good couch time with Daisy yesterday. I seem to be Her Human.

Figures you're a furry.

I can't sleep..... night everyone

 

[Lilianna23]

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

BTW caught you

Damnit!

 

[Lilianna23]

Nope

How do you DO that?!?

 

[Lilianna23]

I want both recipes.

I've made these scones. I had some when I was in Hawaii and just HAD to see if I could find a recipe. I use my salad shooter to grate frozen butter into the batter. As the butter melts during baking, it creates a very tender crumb.

I have a LOT of recipes bookmarked!

Good morning early risers. Nicely cool this morning.

It was here as well, along with some rain! A nice deviation from the hot and dry weather we had this weekend.

 

[Lilianna23]

Who? Me? Wise????

Every once in a while!

 

[Lilianna23]

You said “hummer” heh heh

I know! Now, I'm doing it to see how many you catch!

 

[Lilianna23]

Good Morning everyone

Good day, Impy?

 

[Lilianna23]

Happy Monday!!! It's Drive Day again, heading Back East. Everything that has to go is on the truck except for me and my personal bits. SSS, finish coffee #2, dress and pack and load. I'll do my best not to start any trouble.


Wonder if the Hell Kittens will miss me???

Probably not. Unless they've made you their slave. Even then, probably not. They'd just be pissed you weren't at their beck and call.

Glad you got home safely!

 

[Lilianna23]

Safe travels, wat!


Is this your new motorcycle gang? I could see it. Lilliana in her pink leather jacket… you in your pink leather jacket…

Wat needs a bitch bar on the back of his bike if I'm going to ride with him!

 

[Lilianna23]

I want cool weather

Come here! We got some today!

 

[Lilianna23]

My travel times are when my kid travels out of state to see her dad. Right now, it's Thanksgiving, one week during Christmas break, and the entire month of June and half of July. Holidays are when I would love to go because of weather, but family gets all into holidays. I just don't have an interest in them lately. Maybe I will get the feeling back, but for right now, I'd love to take off and have a solo trip.

Maybe take a break from family this holiday season to have some Impy time.

 

[Lilianna23]

Yeah. I bet.... there is some kind of dopamine hit when scratching off the list... i even add to list and immediately scratch off if I can.... so satisfying

I do the SAME thing! Gotta get credit for that task!

 

[Lilianna23]

Drive carefully wat.... I am sure the hell kittens will miss you ... a little bit.....but the sweet(ish) clouder at home can't wait to see you. I would have a few words with ethyl..let her know that she is going to have same smack downs in her future.......

I have the feeling Ethyl is the kind of little madam who will be administering the smack downs!

 

[Lilianna23]

It’s been the hottest most humid, most mosquito infested summer I can remember in a long time. Throw in TS-Debby and all that’s left is a big hurricane (may the almighty smite me for even mentioning) to put a cherry on top. Please Lord…send some fall weather…thunderstorms and humid today….good day for a nap.

Here is some autumn Morning Z to inspire…and hopefully line the planets up to bring it!

You are SO flirting with danger, H! You know the entire eastern seaboard is gonna find you if you do have a hurricane!

 

[Lilianna23]

Ol Ken Anderson! He was a good QB. Rooted for him against the 49’s in the ‘82 SB…although the 49’s had beaten the hated Cowgirls (life long Redskin fan) and it was a toss-up for me…he was good though!

Come sit by me during football season, H! I'm a Hawks fan. We hate the 40-whiners and the CowPatties!

 

[Lilianna23]

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.

Dogs are just the best! Although mine is very aloof and cat-like, too!

 

[Lilianna23]

Maybe we all need a field trip to Scotland?

Absolutely! @Greylag has said we can park caravans (motorhomes) in his garden! @Missk_2022 and I are going to need use of the facilities, however. We're more glamping girls than camping girls!

 

[Lilianna23]

Good morning all.

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

I got hiccups right now. My family laughs at me but when I get them I drink water slowly while making circles on the bottom of my cup and focusing on my finger. Works really well

Definitely looking forward to cooler weather. We set records this summer for constant heat all summer and I hate that.

Hope you all have a nice day ahead. We're headed to my classroom for some last minute clean up/set up and then some swimming.

I was so thrilled to wake to a bit of rain today!

 

[Lilianna23]

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.

Sounds really good, Q!

 

[Lilianna23]

had to look up fuschias to remind me what they look like
oh yeah - that's pollinator crack!

They're beautiful flowers; the hummingbirds love them! I have 9 large hanging baskets of them!

 

[TomTeacher19]

I was so thrilled to wake to a bit of rain today!

Rain is the best weather ever. We need it here

 

[Lilianna23]

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'm usually that way. Lately, I've had difficulty eating the massive quantities of food left here by my family. I need to get a compost bin. Most of the food I can't/won't eat gets put on the deck railing for the crows. The rest gets chucked into the greenbelt to feed the critters there.
