Popcorn counts as a vegetable, right?
Asking for a friend

Popcorn counts a dinner at my house!

 

[Lilianna23]

I'll try the cheese dust next time. Sounds delish

Generally I use a copycat Lawry's Seasoned Salt... without the salt or the sugar.
1 tsp Turmeric
2 tsp Paprika
4 tsp Onion Powder
8 tsp Garlic Powder
mix it all up, yum

ETA: punctuation rules; capitalized the T

My husband taught me how he made popcorn early on. Add butter, Spike (a seasoning blend), and nutritional yeast. It's really good! The yeast lends a cheesy flavor to the popcorn.

I made it in a big Dutch oven popped in coconut oil.

I typically sleep 5-6 hrs a night. It works well for me.

Six hours and a thirty minute nap is perfect for me. Perhaps an hour more on Sunday

I was really busy but don't feel I was all that productive. I spent HOURS on the phone with the cable company, or as I call them, ComCrap! We have a triple-play plan that includes a landline but the landline hasn't been functional since probably December of last year. I've been planning on dropping it and TV; I just hadn't done it yet.

Years ago, I froze both my and my husband's credit at all three credit reporting agencies. Now, I will need to unfreeze my credit in order to manage my it. Of course, I can't remember what the cryptic notes I wrote down for my user name and password mean. The phone number associated with the accounts is our landline. In order to recover my account, they need to call me to give me a code.

So, hence, the day spent with multiple agents at ComCrap trying to get my landline functional. They were not successful resetting it remotely, so I have the cable guy coming tomorrow.

That presented another conundrum. The router and main phone is in my office...

The office that is a hazmat site! Yeah, that one.

So, I just spent the last few hours cleaning in there. The tops of the desk can now be seen, trash, recycling, and general debris has been removed. It's dusted (sorta) and vacuumed (also sorta).

The housecleaning gene skipped me. So, whenever I fo something like this, it's a major endeavor for me.

Anyway, I think the cable guy can get in there to work now and not get lost.

Every cloud has a silver lining Lili! It got your office cleaned ....sort of

Good Morning everyone
Mrs Rj & I have our 46th wedding anniversary today...
I'll be hobbling (on crutches) to the restaurant this evening

God bless RJ! Quite the accomplishment!

 

[Greylag]

My spoiled (but not rotten!) little girl would sniff at them, let them sniff at her, growl menacingly when they wanted to play, then petition the mommy to pick her up!

No, she's not spoiled! Not one little bit!

Of course she isn’t!

 

[Rj_1954]

It's my nighty-night time and Mrs Rj is summoning me, so I'll see ya'll tomorrow.

 

[Lilianna23]

I would like at least 7, but I won't stay asleep for that long

I don't either anymore. I used to be an 8-10 hour girl. Now when I DO get more than 5, it's usually with a wake period in-between.

 

[Greylag]

Great pics. You’ve really trained your pups well!!!

Thanks @Wonderer67 I have been training gun dogs of over 45 years and there is a lot of effort...and angst goes into every one of my boys. They don’t go out like that until they are at least two years old I know they won’t let me down. The guns pay tens of thousands of dollars for a day on that estate and I can’t have my boys running amok. I would be sacked and my reputation wrecked!

 

[HumpDayHoratio]

That’s right!! I forgot that.

Any other James earl jones memories or
Roles that stuck with you guys?

I loved him in Bing Long All Stars, Field of Dreams, Coming To America

Field of Dreams probably my fave. Sandlot close second.

 

[Lilianna23]

I don’t watch the show really at all, but Steve Harvey is a funny dude!!

I love his facial expressions!

 

[Lilianna23]

I’d like more too, sometimes, but sometimes 5-6 hrs works really well and I feel very refreshed.

According to my shitbit, I sell 8 hrs last nite. I was knackered!!

You needed it!

 

[Lilianna23]

Still a bit tired from last night's reading marathon
Finished the book
But now I must get started on another
And hopefully still get at least 7 or 8 hours sleep
Sweet Dreams all...

Good sleep when you get there, L!

 

[Oldermom935]

That must have felt heavenly to just roll over and go back to sleep! Did you have a good day? ️

It was very fulfilling and relaxing...

 

[Noor]

I'm so sorry that happened to you!

Thank you!

 

[Noor]

Glad you’re on the mend!

Fingers crossed!

 

[Oldermom935]

Morning!

I just heard James earl Jones passed away today. Such a great actor!

And a distinctive voice in all of his roles. My favorite was darth vader

My favorite role of his was the villain in thwnorogonal Conan the Barbarian, as Thulsa Doom.

RIP, to a great man, humanitarian and actor…
