    Hi to Ed, what an alarm system those cats have worked out!
    Roger, they did put the series up for 48 hours. See if that link I sent you to iThrive will get you there. Most are interesting, it was #8 that dealt with intermittent fasting. I think I'd like to try a 3 day water fast and then reality sets in. Not sure I can get past about 4-5 in the afternoon. That's where I've gotten 'stuck' before. :) Not cuz I was fasting, but because I'd been out running around and just hadn't eaten. I pretty much do a 14-15 hour fast on a daily basis. They were talking about doing an abbreviated fast, limiting the 'feeding' window each day...like 5 hours if you wanted to eat 2 meals, or a really short window of 1-2 hours for feeding, fasting the rest of the 24 hours...
    I was supposed to work with Ted on my computer over the phone, and he just called and said go do your errands now, and call him later today when the rains set in. about 2p. I think, and Sunday and Monday!!!
    If the link doesn't work Roger, post that here, and I'll see if I can find my login, and passcode and you can log in as me??

    Gotta go while the sun shines! :)

    Later...

    Hi Valerie
    I appreciate the offer, however I would not want to use someone elses login information. I can go try and see if it is still on offer, if not, Oh well.

    Just from curiosity what needs doing to Your computer.

    It seems as if tomorrow's previously forecast storm is now scheduled to arrive Monday overnight into Tuesday with some snow in the forecast.

    Have a Nice Day
    Roger

    Howdy y'all. It's scintillating soggy Sunday! 53 out there now with an expected high of 55 100% chance of rain. It's already raining and supposed to rain all day. Joy.

    Cats need to be fed and I need to get on down to the Botanic Gardens for the last day of the orchid show.

    Hi
    I'm back from walking again and no cents. The temperature this morning was 29 on the porch.

    Hi! Tell me its not really 7p. Feels like its at least an hour off! LOL! All clocks, even the chiming one are set, except...for the one over my head in the bedroom, which twice today has messed with my mind!!

    Roger, kinda long 'what was wrong with my computer' and a pretty quick and painless fix. I had uploaded to the cloud documents, photo's, contacts, etc...only I'd not ever set up a password with the iCloud. :) So, that was what prompted the dialogue boxes...Ted had already figured that out, from what I'd told him the evening before. When I got that done, like magic, my desk top returned! Job finished, All is well!

    My SIL texted me a pix from outside her breakfast table...snowing like it was a Christmas Card! We chatted for about an hour about what we would be doing at the beach, etc. and by the end of our call the snow was called off, and beginning to melt off the tree limbs, bird feeders, roof, etc. She kept telling me it was so beautiful...right. That's one time I'd take ugly over snow!...How about you Roger?!?!?

    Ed, hope the orchid show went well. I don't know what you got in ATL, or even at home, but I did get some rain...nothing to be excited about in quantity!

    Tom Cat seems to be liking DST. Its still quite light here, and he's outside enjoying it!

    Ok, I've got a couple things in mind to do while my eyes still tell me its early early evening. :)

    Later...

    Hi Valerie
    Only a couple more clocks to set here as of this morning.

    Ah Ha, I was curious what happened.

    So far they are still forecasting snow tonight into tomorrow :(

    Have a Nice Day

    Howdy y'all. It's marvelous Monday! 39 out there now with an expected high of 52 and 20% chance of rain. It was wet most of the morning at the botanic gardens yesterday and remained gray and dismal looking, but the rain slacked off and we got a good bit of traffic in. Two of the vendors I know fairly well were nearly sold out over the whole weekend. Another vendor who is more local kept bringing in more stuff to keep their tables fairly full, so it was hard to estimate how well their sales went, but I expect they sold a lot too.

    For me, the show started being fun even before it started. Wednesday was table and chair setup in the show room, which I did not attend. We don't generally have any hospitality setup for this night, as it's just a few volunteers from our group and if we do set anything up it would just be some soft drinks, water, and maybe trail mix or the like. Possibly coffee if our urns are in the kitchen yet. E dropped of her coffee pot but there was nothing laid out for snacks. This initial setup usually only takes a few hours. I did not go Wednesday night and was having my own fun at home. My blood glucose was rather unstable, and dropping, for unknown reasons. Sometimes we diabetics just have fun times like that! So I was up until nearly midnight trying to get it stabilized and high enough to feel comfortable about going to bed. It all ended up being fine, of course, but I didn't really sleep all that well.

    Thursday morning I went down to set up coffee and light snacks (chips, cookies, trail mix) for the arriving guests who would be setting up displays and vending tables and kept the coffee flowing, at least until mid-afternoon at which point I pooped out and popped out to come home and take a nap.

    Friday, I had to be there at about 7:00 in the morning to get coffee ready and set everything up for the Judges' breakfast, so I got that going and when E arrived, closer to 8:00 she set up a small meat and cheese tray, mini-bagels, croissants, and brought orange juice and fruit. The show coordinator's wife had made a dozen boiled eggs, so we set all that out along with the breakfast biscuits and sweet rolls I had already set out. The Judge's breakfast is always set up as a "grab and go" since the first thing they judge is the exhibits, which are in the exhibit hall right outside the kitchen doors. The most important thing to have ready for the Judges' breakfast is the coffee! That's why I was in there at about 7:00, to have an hour to make the coffee and set up the parts of breakfast that I had already brought in. Mostly though, to make the coffee!

    I spent $149.07 on hospitality supplies, food, and drinks, but that was a relatively small portion of the cost for that, and I've already been reimbursed for my purchases. My co-chair seemed to indicate her expenses were probably in that neighborhood as well, but that doesn't factor in the cost of the Judges' lunch on Friday, which is usually the one, largest expense and, if I recall correctly from last year, runs around $600 to $700 but it is some pretty good food.

    Right after the breakfast on Friday, E went downstairs to start setting up the lunch area and I finished cleaning up the breakfast and re-arranging the snacks and cookies, putting away anything that needed refrigeration, to be set up as breakfast snacks for the remaining days. Then I brought drinks down to the room where lunch was being set up and carried down some additional supplies.

    It's too bad we have to "cater" that ourselves, but we do realize that it would be well over $1000 if we got the company to do that part as well, so we suck it up and do the setup, teardown, and cleanup ourselves. This means someone (neither of us co-chairs this time at least) has to go and pick up the food, we have to set up our own chafing dishes for the buffet, set up the tables and chairs, tablecloths, etc, lay out all the food and then watch while our beautiful set up is destroyed inside of an hour. LOL.

    We put the hot food and bread at the front of the room and the desserts and drinks at the back. I did not bother to try moving the coffee urns down, as everyone knew where they were if they wanted coffee after lunch and moving full coffee urns might have been the straw that broke this camel's back. E and I were both really exhausted by the end of it all on Friday.

    Then of course we had to still maintain the normal hospitality area for the next two days of the show, including the lighter Vendors' lunch on Saturday, which was just set up as a "grab and go" buffet in the hospitality kitchen area, and wasn't as much food, though it did include some of the leftovers from Friday.

    Sunday's no-name lunch (Volunteers' lunch? We didn't name a lunch for the volunteers, so why not) was composed of warmed up leftovers from Friday AND Saturday. This was also set up as a "grab and go" to keep it more simple. We order enough extra to cover that last lunch from leftovers and rarely have to buy anything new for it, barring perhaps another jug of pre-made tea or two. Last year we might have bought a bag of salad mix and a bottle of salad dressing for it as well.

    Tonight is the regular monthly meeting. I don't know if we're going to attend or not. I'm still in "recovery" mode from the weekend. I know I want a nap this afternoon!

    Hi
    I'm back from walking again and no cents. The temperature this morning was 35 on the porch.
    The forecast for snow today has come true, It was a light snow falling when I left and by the time I returned to the house the snowflakes were much larger.

    The scale was lower, It seems that the "Time-restricted eating" combined with a 100% NS plan is working really well so far.

    Hi Ed
    You had a really busy and successful sounding show.

    After reading Your description of the past few days I can see why You are in recovery mode.

    Yesterday was a slow day for me, Sunday we roasted and sliced 1/2 of a whole pork loin, the other half was roasted Monday later. 1/2 unseasoned for me and 1/2 with Montreal Seasoning. Monday second 1/2 of the pork loin was vacuum sealed and is now residing in the freezer. It is so handy having a slicer even if the cleanup is a nuisance.

    I shall be having a Ore-Ida "Just Crack a Egg" for breakfast. I decided to try something new and it caught my eye when it was being advertised which is rare for me.

    Hi!
    been a topsy turvy kinda day. Did make it to the gym. Got there a bit early, ha! Saw several long time gym members...got a full course of 'hugs, you look greats, etc' and of course gave the same! :) Oh, found a penny in the parking lot...in a shallow puddle. Snatched it! :) Roger should be proud of me!

    Then made a Whole Foods run. they've discontinued another of my fav.365 foods...I have the awful feeling it has something to do with the Amazon groceries delivered in 2 hours, etc. Anyhow, I left none too happy. My opinion right now is they are becoming just a glorified Kroger, which in my case is about 5-6 miles closer to home. Grrrrrrr!

    Had a nap, kitchen is totally cleaned up, except the dishwasher will need to be emptied in the morning. Which will not only be a trip to the gym, but followed by a trip to the bank.
    Proceeded by a load of laundry, which will transition to the drier after I get home from the bank.

    Can't say its terribly exciting around here this week. Too much to do!

    Later...

    Hi Valerie
    Good going, a penny saved...
    Naturally Whole Foods is changing for the worst since the nearby one has now opened and I will be looking around in the near future. Who Knows I may like it since I do not know what it was like.

    Sometimes unexciting is a good thing.

    Howdy y'all. It's terrific Tuesday! I've eaten, Lilo has had her Tuesday shot (and a few treats right after) and they're all waiting for their canned cat food. Some more patiently than others.

    It's 34 out there with an expected high of 53 and no chance of precipitation.

    Might do some laundry today. Might not. We did not go to the meeting last night, which suited me just fine. J had some work he needed to continue with rather late into the afternoon and I really wasn't feeling like going anyway. I did get out, briefly, to Publix. That was after I'd eaten dinner but before J had any. I had the rest of the leftover barbecue from the weekend, along with a couple of pita triangles, and for J I warmed up some leftover roasted potatoes (carry home from Friday night's party) and made him a grilled egg and cheese sandwich. Later I saw that he had some raisin bran, after I'd gone to bed.

    I also need to clear the sink.

    Hi
    I'm back from walking again and 1 cent. The temperature this morning was 32 on the porch with a brisk breeze. Yesterdays snow ended nice and early and there was no accumulation. For today's walking the sidewalks and streets were much better than they have been the last few days.

    The scale was nicely lower than yesterday morning, again, It seems that the "Time-restricted eating" combined with a 100% NS plan is still working well.

    Hi Ed
    I enjoyed it, OTOH The Jimmy Dean version that has the egg in it was just as tasty so I have a craving for one it will depend on which one I can find on sale :wink:

    Grilled Egg & Cheese, Tasty I'm sure.
    I would likely put it on the 40 calorie per slice bread plain or toasted and use the 40 calorie per slice Velveeta which also melts easily. The local eateries put them on a Hard Roll AKA Kaiser Roll or a English Muffin.
    Well, nuts!

    Take with several grains of sea salt!
    I wish I could eat Cashews, I really like them, However they cause a problem with itching a day or two later that takes days to clear up. At least I can eat all other type of nuts including Peanuts.

    Have a Good Day

    Hi!
    Busy Day...only 3 errands, one load of clothes, an hour chat with Jack, half hour rocking cat, throw in a couple meals...that's my day!

    Cold in the mornings, and too warm for that coat that felt so good around 8 a.m.!

    I was expecting a different sort of story about nuts with Ed.s video. I was expecting 'all cashew's are cooked' (true-ish), or ______is a healthier nut than _____, etc.

    I read a couple of Rogers news clips...will be interesting to hear how the 'crack an egg' breakfasts went tomorrow morning! I suspect if I ate eggs, I might even try one of those for breakfast. :)

    Got a new sale flier from Costco...will read that tonite from the comfort of my warm little bed! Also I need to really pay attention to these last few Scrabble words. We are getting down to the wire, and Ted is only 5 points ahead of me. If the 'tile gods' are with me, I could actually win this one!!

    Ok, my yawns are so big they're making my eyes watery...Time for sleep.

    See you all tomorrow!
    Hi Valerie
    I wonder if the Crack an Egg would work with Egg beaters ? As I mentioned I did enjoy it. the one I had was 170 calories + whatever the egg added, The other on I bought to try is 100 calories + the eggs calories. I doubt You would have either of them as they have pork or turkey sausage, OTOH Since it had three individual pouches in the cup, One for the sausage, one for vegetables and another with the Cheese...
    It would be easy enough to duplicate, Vegan Egg Substitute, Potatoes & vegetables and Vegan Cheese and likely quite a bit cheaper. I bought them since I am Cheap (Frugal).
    I gather from what someone else said that The NS Gift Cards are going on sale. I do not know the price or duration and wanted to know as I have none left.

    Good Luck with the Scrabble

    Howdy y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday! 35 out there now with an expected high of 50 and 0% chance of precipitation.

    I've eaten (eggs and leftover potatoes, to finish off the last of the "hot" leftovers from the show - still have some pita bread left though) and the sink is cleared. The dishwasher is running, both to wash dishes and to clean the dishwasher and after that's done I'll see about cleaning the filter as it's been a year (yesterday) since the dishwasher was installed and the instructions said to clean that at least once a year. I guess I'll find out how much trouble that is today! Should be interesting, if not fun.

    Cats are ready for their breakfast any time and I may have to go and find some pie as it's PI DAY TODAY! Maybe pizza pie for dinner? I'd actually like some fruit pie though...

    Signs you're eating pre-made food at a restaurant. But then, how do you think some of them manage such perfect consistency across the country?

    Hi Ed
    If I had those leftovers I would fry the Potatoes and then when they were nicely browned I would add and Egg and Scramble it into the potatoes. I like that Combo, And if I had precooked bacon I would crumble that into the eggs when they are added. Everything is better with Bacon or Butter :smiley:

    I'm guessing that the user manual should tell You how to clean that filter, Or a YouTube Video or both ?

    If I said I am thinking a Good Cherry Pie would be tasty, Notice I said Good. Or what the ShopRite sells in a deluxe version, Their Very Berry Pie is both Sweet and Tart from the mix of berries.
    OTOH a Good Thin Crust Pizza, Yummy too.

    When I watched Yesterdays Jeopardy one of the contestants mentioned Pi Day since that is the day he and hid wife were married.

    I would buy that one, I think a Bacon Potato Pie would be tasty :wink:

    If I said I never thought about it, The reason make sense however.

    Have a Good Day and Stay Warm
