    Hi
    I'm back from walking and found no cents. The Temperature out the door was 56 degrees. It is a nice enough day outside, According to the weather forecast I saw last night one part of NJ had 6 inches of rain in 12 hours. Our rain was a lower amount. South of where I am the rain lasted longer and there were many roads closed due to flooding. I also wonder how many Parades were rescheduled due to the rain ?

    Good morning

    Hi Kathie
    Have a Good Memorial Day
    Roger
    Howdy y'all. It's scintillating Sunday! I've been up for hours and have already run the dishwasher and put all the dishes away, and been distracted by various internet thingies.

    80 with an expected high of 82 and 20% chance of rain but a much higher chance tonight and tomorrow, at least according to the forecast.

    Need to clean yesterday's cat bowls that are sitting in the sink.
    Hi Ed
    I hope Yours and Valerie's weather is not as bad as I am seeing in the weather forecasts.
    Is the Instant Pot worth it? One person's testing and opinion anyway. Your mileage may vary.
    Isn't that the one that Valerie uses ? I guess we will find out.

    Have a Nice Day
    Roger

    Hi!
    Busy doing piddly chores, fixed myself a nice, filling lunch. This should be a 'two meal' day as I 'missed' breakfast. :)

    Roger the berries came from Kroger...what few are left around here are just small green nubs, which probably will get disposed of before they grow or turn black. (I am hoping to get those few left disposed of..they're growing in my azalea bushes. Smart plants. They make it doubly hard for me to clear out, and its time for our copperheads to lay around under shrubs, etc. waiting for a tasty morsel to come their way....I do not intend for that morsel to be ME). LOL

    And, the cornbread from WF that is vegan clearly is marked Vegan. I have no idea if they freeze their cornbread before selling or not.
    And the updated apps that are changing their privacy policies are iOS apps. So you're flip phone won't be effected. :)

    Heading for the gym...hip is not as sore as it was, so will do a bit of a walk on the TM and see how that goes.

    Later...
    Hi Valerie
    Been there done that with meals also.

    Just curious are those Blackberry Bushes the thorn-less or the ones that have thorns. The Blackberry bush here has no thorns which makes it easier to pick from than the thorny Raspberries.

    IMO the inability to run things on a flip phone is a blessing :wink:

    Good Luck with the TM

    Howdy y'all. It's marvelous Monday! 69 now with an expected high of 79 and 50% chance of precipitation. 60% chance at the location of the pool party this afternoon, which is being held regardless.

    My baked beans are in the oven now. We'll pick up a friend on the way and hope for not TOO much rain. The afternoon forecast calls for scattered thundershowers.

    Need to clean yesterday's cat bowls, make another mug or two of tea, and feed the cats. And shower for the party, though it's possible I could just wait and let nature shower me there! LOL.

    I still like my Instant Pot...it cooks wonderful rice, beans, soups, veggies, is also slow cooker, etc. Frees up a lot of appliances. And, I remembering growing up with my Mom a gas stove, a pressure cooker and watching the pressure gauge so it didn't blow up. Nope, I'll keep my IP....

    I thought it was rather unfair that she compared it ONLY to a regular pressure cooker. When I realized that was her test, I knew the regular pressure cooker would win because I know that no electric pressure cooker can get quite the same heat and/or pressure as a stovetop, old fashioned pressure cooker. She practically ignored the slow cooker function of the IP.

    I noticed that despite the pressure cooker winning her contest she still had a lot of good things to say about the IP and said she liked it anyway, and she mentioned the programmability and the "hold warm" feature that, of course, one doesn't have with a standard pressure cooker.

    Glad they got back from Florida OK.

    Our pool party was a surprising success, despite the rain. We made it clear to the group that the party was happening, rain or shine, and most of those who had said they were coming showed up. I am glad that I made baked beans for 40+ people as there were 52 people there! There were rain showers but also bits of sun and just overcast. Someone else made a kind of 3 bean salad with a creamy dressing, for 40, and most of his dish was consumed as well. There was a small portion of my baked beans left for the hosts to keep back and enjoy later.

    I actually spent 10 minutes in the pool myself, but limited it to that and otherwise tried to stay out of the ultraviolet. Clouds don't really cut that much, if at all, so I mostly stayed on the covered porch or under some of the awnings. I did show a few new people around the place as the hosts were busy, but that didn't have me out in the ultraviolet for long at all. J and I stopped briefly on the way and picked up a friend I have known since about last Christmas Eve, that J had not met until today. I met him over the holidays while J was out of town and we've enjoyed a few meals together during J's out of town trips this spring. He has three cats, as do J and I.

    I felt he'd be a welcome addition to our pool party group, as he just seemed like he'd be a good fit. He had a good time and everyone seemed to like him. He said he'd be coming back for more parties.

    Good Morning Ed
    Monday was overcast and rain free, Today it is misty outdoors with low hanging clouds. No real rain in the forecast for until Thursday where the forecasts show 5 days with some rain being shown.

    I plan to look at this later on, it sounds interesting.

    That sounds like a large party to me. The hosts must have a large home and land to use. I did not realize You worried about the UV rays.

    Have a Safe day and stay dry

    Hi! glad I came back to look at the posts....mine is missing.
    I promise you I made a post...possibly for got to post Reply...or I did my answer in my head, and before I could type it out was distracted and never did type it??? I dunno!

    Alberto has made landfall, feeder bands of rain come and go..with much more promised for Tues and Wednesday... so, yeah Roger...our weekend was sorta a wash out....though Ed's group sounded like they were in it for the day...rain and all!

    I still like my Instant Pot...it cooks wonderful rice, beans, soups, veggies, is also slow cooker, etc. Frees up a lot of appliances. And, I remembering growing up with my Mom a gas stove, a pressure cooker and watching the pressure gauge so it didn't blow up. Nope, I'll keep my IP....

    I loved Pizza with or without a fork, btw! Not picky as long as the pizza was tasty I could handle getting it into my mouth!

    Rain or no, tomorrow I go to a store...have no banana's, want an avocado, and am out of cilantro and limes. Sounds like a trip to the gym, and the market next door!!

    J&J got ahead of the storm once out of FLA and Jack said it was dry pavement the rest of the time. He posted a link of a live video cam that was next door to where they were staying in Sandestin..Beach and wave was much more reminiscent of the Atlantic than the gulf.

    Later...
    Hi Valerie
    I thought I'd remembered You having a IP. It was my understanding that even the Stove top Pressure Cookers had a Adjustable Safety Relief valve to prevent an over pressure event.

    Oh well, I am guessing You have a raincoat and Umbrella for Your shopping trip.

    Good Luck Shopping

    Need to give Lilo her Tuesday shot and maybe some light housework. Definitely a nap if I can squeeze one in.

    And the cats are telling me they are STARVING so at some point I guess I need to feed them. LOL.

    We had two (Three) power outages last night, The first 10:58 the second and third around midnight. That contributed to my posting late today :(

    Hi!
    Quick hello, as its nearly 2p, and I haven't had lunch yet. I did mop the foyer, and go to the gym, and a produce run at the market.

    Roger, if stove top pressure cookers come with 'release' back-ups its news to me....mind you I'm remembering Mom's canning pressure cooker, from 50 years ago! :)

    Ed, glad the pool party was a success rain and all! Weather was a bit weird over here.

    I think we may very well be in for a rain later today...the clouds are big, nearly black, and it smells like rain.

    Fitbit is tapping me to go for a walk. Apparently I need an additional 199 steps to make it happy this hour? And my tummy is YELLING at me for food.
    Will walk first...199 steps is an 'inhouse' kinda walk...and the food had better happen soon after!

    Later...

    Hi Valerie
    I am basing that on memory so I could be wrong, I do recall helping my grandmother caning Vegetables and Fruits that they grew, That would be back in the 50s :smiley:
    Oh Roger, my berry bushes are a 'gift'?? from Mother Nature...so they definitely have very protective thorns! LOL! Enjoy your tame, bigger, berries...happy picking. You have no idea what adventure picking thru a patch of berries can be. LOL

    I do know what an adventure picking is, the Raspberries have thorns :(
    At least the Raspberries are growing in the row we planted them in.

    Have a Nice Day

    Might do something today...might not. Largely depends on how well the ibuprofen works on this headache I woke up with.

    Dinner last night was home made 6 cheese pizza, baked on a preheated pizza stone. No leftovers, but J ate more of it than I did and that's as far as I'm going with that...

    Need to clean yesterday's cat bowls and feed the cats.

    Hi
    I'm back from walking and found no cents. The Temperature out the door was 62 degrees. It is a nice enough day outside with a misty haze in the air that has turned to a light rain around the time I arrived home.

    I managed to get two decorative pots planted with Marigolds and Begonias to decorate the front step. I left them where I filled them with the Garden soil and plants on the picnic table until the rain waters them in.

    I have posted more humor

    We did another run to Lowes yesterday since it was the last day of the sale and bought 6 more bags of mulch and 4 bags of Topsoil. The Much is all placed and I used some of the first bag of top soil to plant the pots of flowers.

    Howdy y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday! 72 with an expected high of 82 and 90% chance of p.m. precipitation.

    Might do something today...might not. Largely depends on how well the ibuprofen works on this headache I woke up with.

    Dinner last night was home made 6 cheese pizza, baked on a preheated pizza stone. No leftovers, but J ate more of it than I did and that's as far as I'm going with that...

    Need to clean yesterday's cat bowls and feed the cats.
    Hi Ed
    Today is looking poorly, The rain having already started I am going with a 100% chance of rain.

    I chewed up a couple of aspirins before I went walking as I felt some aches and pains, I did eat a NS snack so that the aspirins that being a warmed up in the MW NS Lemon Zest Cake snack @ 140 Calories, 4.0g Total Fat, 5g Dietary Fiber, 5g Protein.

    I am hoping that helps with the twinges in the joints in one hand.
    Emmy has too much fun with frankfurters.
    Hot Dogs as Toys ? That reminds me I need to pull a pack of Hot Dogs out of the freezer to use tomorrow as a ersatz (?) protein.
    Kids try weird ice cream flavors.
    I was watching a cooking show called Guy's Grocery Game where one of the contestants made Chorizo Ice Cream, Nothing I would eat I suspect.

    Have a Good Day

    Hi!
    Just finished my dinner! Which was delicious. Amy's Tamale Verde...(Vegan) and a tiny cherry pie, warmed with my vanilla coconut ice cream! First guy that says YUCK has to watch these crazy kids for 24 hours! LOL! I would have loved the licorice and maybe even the Durian. (which I have eaten)...The trick with Durian is to not ever ever smell it. Taste is quite good...smell...YUCK

    Long day. Publix for some decent arugula and a couple other things...like veggie/tofu hotdogs. I must have sensed Emmy was gonna make pineapple franks! Anyhow, then home had a huge salad that I picked up at Publix...I'm guessing there was at least 8 oz of baby greens, topped with apple slices, blueberries, walnuts, black and golden raisins, etc. Tasty. Especially since I didn't have to fix it. :)

    Got ahead of myself, I bought gas for the lawnmower...
    Hi Valerie
    How do You manage to eat the Durian without smelling it ? FWIW I have seen it used in cooking contest shows such as Chopped. There are more than enough tasty foods that do not stink :wink:

    That sounds like a salad I have seen at either Wendy's or the ShopRite, You would likely skip them as they have cheese in them sprinkled on top, Shredded Cheddar or Crumbled Blue Cheese.

    Is someone planning on mowing :smiley:
    After the news, I made my run to Kroger. $40. Not too shabby. And I got hungry too early for dinner, so I made a one slice cheesy toast, and went to the gym.

    I am tired, and its daylight, but I'm going to bed.

    PS...I do not ever remember anything as 'exotic' as Pineapple weenies while I was at WW!! (in the 70's) Back in the day when Jean Niditch (sp) started WW. We met in out 'leaders' home once a week, and recipe's were copies from somebody's machine...it was before 'home' printers.... Seriously...I remember days and days of canned tuna with pepper and lemon..(no Mayo allowed), We were required to eat 5 fish meals...and Jack (3 yrs old) and his Dad would not eat fish...hence 5 tuna sandwiches a week. I couldn't eat tuna for several years after that. Also liver was required once a week. That I didn't mind. I think they did, but hey...'tough'!

    It rained, so I couldn't cut the grass...thank goodness. Saturday is supposed to be dry, and sunny...hopefully the grass as tall as it is will dry out enough to mow. Stay tuned.........

    Ok, good nite! and

    Later...
    One slice of bread or bread with one slice of cheese ?

    Canned Tuna is not on my list of foods I want to eat. When My brother opens the cans of Tuna he turns into Tuna Salad the Tuna stinks to me so...
    That is strange since when I was Younger I liked Mom's Tuna Casserole.

    Liver, To be kind, Yuck !

    I think we have rain in the forecast through Sunday.

    Have a Nice Day
    Roger

    Howdy y'all. I've been up for hours but distracted by various things. 81 now with an expected high of 86 and 50% chance of precipitation.

    Need to wash/rinse the baking dish I cooked lunch in and place it in the dishwasher, and need to get on the laundry.
