Hi
I'm back from walking again and No cents. The temperature this morning was 30 on the porch and 32 on the cable news channel, Warmer than yesterday. The sky was overcast and there is precipitation in the forecast, the weather forecasts seem to be unable to decide if it will be snow, rain or a mix.
It seems that the "Time-restricted eating" combined with a 100% NS plan is working really well so far. Whee

As YOu Look at this we Have Acme, Aldi, Costco & Shoprite nearby and Wegmans is a bit of a drive with Trader Joes being further away. I am still waiting for the Whole Foods that seems to have been under construction forever.

Howdy y'all. It's thrilling Thursday! 41 out there now with and expected high of 58 and 40% chance of p.m. showers.
I need to get a few things from the store so obviously should try to get those in the a.m. hours.
Sink needs to be cleared of yesterday's cat bowls. Dishwasher is running now. I've eaten and the cats are awaiting their breakfast. Lilo is in my lap and was trying her best to help me type.

I had never even heard of a lot of these grocery stores. Not at all surprised to see Aldi and TJ's near the top.

Hi! Home from Gymnastics, cat and I just ate. Cat is in a pissy mood today...this morning I was holding, petting, rocking and the little 'kitten' tried to bite me...did the same later this afternoon when I got home from the gym...wonder what the heck I did wrong????
Roger, glad the intermittent eating is working well for you! I pretty much do that all of the time. It is a 'thing', and it works for some. It seems to me an easy thing to do. I'm not sure I buy into some of his 'theories' though. He's d@mn good at cherry picking his facts, and documenting where he found his facts is non-existant! That said, diet is very much an individual thing, and if it works for you roll with it!!!
I showed up at the gym today! Was good to see everybody. They were all amused that I took the month of January off...cuz of the newbies or new sneakers as they are often known by! I spent many frustrating Januarys....no more! The owner was there, and gave me a big hug and welcome, explaining the the wide eyed (new) young lady at the desk, that I was 'family'!!!
And I went just gonna walk half hour...and Buzz (owner) said they'd gotten the new piece of equipment in that our trainer was so excited to get...so I had half hour to kill before the class started for it. I'd tell you the name, but I don't think I ever looked for a name...its a 'something 360' I'll check that out tomorrow, if I can get to the gym...lots of cardio, and that new thing is all upper body...shoulders, back, arms, etc. One of the things is something I'd seen before, but never used...its two ropes and your alternate lift and 'flip'..like you'd do a towel out of the dryer...anyhow, because you alternate right and left arms, those ropes dance in a wave like motion...I could do the right arm, but didn't have the strength to make that left rope dance!!!
. I know that ropes like that were used at Golds Gym in a 'special training' area that you paid extra to work with the trainer. Always fascinated me..today more like frustrated me!!
Ok, cat's outside, I'm ready to pack it in and get some sleep.
BTW Roger, since I skipped breakfast today, I ate a light lunch about 3p, a big salad at 5p from Sweet tomatoes, and a toasted sandwich when I got home from O's gymnastics class...and I did it in a 7 hour window!!! It was not intentional...just worked out that way.

Hi
I'm back from walking again and No cents. The temperature this morning was 37 on the porch and 37 on the cable news channel, Warmer than yesterday. The sky is overcast and there is a light precipitation Falling. The weather forecasts were for rain overnight changing to snow and then as the temperatures keep falling through the day to become icy. I did see a light snow falling as I looked under the streetlights. It does not seem top be sticking anywhere except on cars and lawns. Hopefully it will not impact out trip to the Eye doctor. Both my Brother and I have appointments for this morning.
The scale was nicely lower than yesterday morning, again, It seems that the "Time-restricted eating" combined with a 100% NS plan is working really well so far. Whee

I can not remember when I ate at a Denny's, beyond that it was many years ago
Some people have no common sense. I watch a show called Parking Wars in reruns where they show Ticketing, towing, Booting and the impound Lot interactions with the public. I am amazed at how dense some of the people are when they are getting a ticket for parking on a crosswalk, Fire Hydrant, Bus Stop, Loading Zone, Etc.
I have the Power Air Fryers videos open in new tabs to watch later, Thanks I had been wondering how accurate the adverts were.
Have a Nice Day

So far so good with the Diet changes. I do have a suspicion that any change in eating habits will work well for a while before the loss starts slowing down When that happens, time to change to a different one for a while.

Howdy y'all. It's fantastic Friday! 32 out there now with an expected high of 42 and 0% chance of precipitation.
I don't think we actually got any precipitation at our house yesterday either, which was fine by me. My plain Brillo pads arrived yesterday, so I got started on re-seasoning some more of the cast iron.
I never was totally pleased with the seasoning on my existing three regular cast iron skillets, and the 10 inch round griddle, particularly the bottom cooking surfaces, so I decided to re-season those too.
The round cast iron griddle was sort of done yesterday morning, though I might re-season the cooking surface on that one yet again, as I didn't really scrub the surface and I'm not totally happy with how it looks. We'll have to see how it does on cooking. The "new" 10 inch pan took it's second coat Wednesday beautifully and does well on cooking.
Yesterday, the 7 quart Dutch oven, which just had some rust spotting on one side of the exterior, got done along with the two small, round, shallow skillets. You can see where I scrubbed the dutch oven as that part is a bit lighter than the rest of the exterior but hopefully the seasoning will be sealed well enough, and I may give just the exterior another coat. I don't worry so much about the appearance of cast iron as the utility.
The two 3 1/2 inch mini-skillet/spoon rests I dug out of the back of the kitchen gadget drawer looked fine so I didn't re-season them at all. They are good and black and no sign of any rust, so they are in the pot and pan cabinet, which I did re-organize on Tuesday, tossing a few of the worst scratched up sauce pans and one small non-stick skillet. I may lose some more non-stick skillets as I seem to have accumulated rather an abundance of those, but some are in really good condition still. I tossed both of the 7 to 8 inch non-stick skillets as too scratched up so I sure hope I do a good job on the 6 inch cast iron re-seasoning!
Right now the lid for the 7 quart Dutch oven is in the oven along with the 8 inch cast iron skillet, the Christmas (Holiday?) tree shaped shallow skillet/cookie mold, and the 5 inch square "wonder" skillet that scrubbed up pretty well, after a vinegar/water soak, so I have high hopes of it re-seasoning nicely. I don't know whether the company who made it really call it a wonder skillet, but apparently the Lodge version is called that, though I'm not sure why.
For making square egg sandwiches the 5 inch wonder skillet should be perfect. I'd probably use two eggs, but one might be enough to spread nicely across the bottom. I know one egg did very nicely in the 5 inch, shallow, round skillets. Also, assuming the bread is the right size, one could probably do a grilled cheese sandwich in the wonder skillet, though it might be a slightly tight fit.
When these have cooled enough to come out, I have the old 10 1/2 inch skillet and the 6 inch skillet left to scrub and re-season. I will probably start the vinegar/water soak for them about half an hour to an hour before I think I'll be removing what's currently in the oven. That should dissolve and loosen up the ugly, not well done, cooking surface gunk nicely, as it did with 8 inch skillet, and they'll be ready to oil and bake.
Eddie has been busy with the cast iron stuff! While this is baking maybe I can test that cooking surface on the 10 inch round cast iron griddle. I don't necessarily expect that one to look as uniform on the cooking surface as the others simply because of the nature of how a griddle is used, with food not necessarily covering it and not as much oil generally in use on it, so I may just have to live with the surface not quite looking uniform, as long as it works well. In a while I'll try an egg in the middle, where it looks like it might be "less" seasoned but might be just fine. If that doesn't work out, then I'll completely scrape and scrub and re-do that griddle.

Update: The 10 inch round cast iron griddle had no problem with an egg cooked in the center where I was unsure of the seasoning. No sticking problem at all. I'm sure over time the overall appearance will even out.
The stuff in the oven is cooling. I did check the appearance of the (HOT HOT HOT even through a hot pad) smaller stuff, and put it back in the oven to continue cooling. The square wonder skillet looks a little uneven in the insisde but parts of the interior were darker to begin with, and I didn't totally remove all of the prior coating as I don't think it neede it. I think it will be fine. I'll test later, and if not, re-season one more time!The Christmas (Holiday?) tree looks BEAUTIFUL and dark all over and inside, and the entire pan, including the cooking surface, of the 8 inch skillet look great and dark. As the cooking surfaces of the 10 1/2 and 6 inch skillets were in similar condition, I have no doubt they will come out looking just as good. The top of the lid for the 7 quart cooker looks great and I'm not too concerned about the inside of that as it's not a cooking surface anyway, and was just getting another layer on what already looked to be a fine finish. I'm sure the inside will be fine.

Good Morning!
Roger I have the article on my desk top as a pdf file. I will try to attach it. I think I know what I did wrong with my earnings, taxes withheld, etc. Will go back and see if I can correct it. Funny how if you just spend some early morning time sorta awake, but not quite awake...you can often get answers!!! (or at least I think that is the issue)
So,on to attaching a pdf file...fingers crossed.
well as you may have guessed, That didn't work so well!!!
drag and drop///fail
attach file////fail
Later I'll do some clipping and cut and copy the darn thing!!! LOL!!
Right now I need to hit the shower, head to the gym, eat my lunch, and be home by 2p. The heat and air guy is coming between 2 & 4.

Oh, one other update. As the new 10 inch pan has only had potatoes fried in it, I told J he could claim that one as his vegetarian cast iron frying pan. At one time he had "threatened" to get out all the cast iron and repurpose all of it as vegetarian only. I told him that was not gonna happen. LOL.
So he has the 10 inch one, and his stainless steel wok, which, honestly should be enough for him. He uses the wok for most of the little cooking he does anyway and probably won't even use the frying pan much, but he might, for fried potatoes.
And I can use all the other cast iron for whatever. Though I imagine all the miniature stuff will be used for mostly eggs, maybe the occasional corn pancake or muffin thing, so it will likely stay vegetarian too.
In fact, most of it will probably stay mostly vegetarian, as the only one I'm likely to be cooking much meat in is the 10/12 inch one, in which I may make simmered chicken, beef, or pork dishes. I'm expecting most burger, steak, seared chop kind of things will likely be done in the microwave grills, though I could, possibly, do some of that in the big, round, cast iron griddle, or maybe occasionally bacon, though I usually do that on paper towels and a microwave safe plate, in the microwave too. It's just easier cleanup.

Howdy y'all. It's sensational Saturday! 31 out there now with an expected high of 48 and 0% chance of precipitation.
I don't think there is actually anything on the agenda for today. I am a little low on the cat food that Dinah and Kiara share, but I don't have to get it today. Tomorrow or even Monday, possibly Tuesday will be fine.
Hope everyone had a great Groundhog day!

Hi
I'm back from walking again and 1 cent. The temperature this morning was 14 on the porch and 16 on the cable news channel, A fair bit colder than yesterday. The light precipitation that was falling never amounted to anything beyond ice on the windows that looked like rain drops around here. The trip to the Eye doctor where both my Brother and I had appointments for this morning was speedy and uneventful. The roads and sidewalks were dry. OTOH there was the occasional car or pickup truck that had a fair amount of snow on the roads and parking lots that must have come from somewhere that did get snow.
We stopped at the ShopRite on the way home where I stocked up on discounted Deli products from the bargain Refrigerator, Typically 30% to 50% off. I shall be using the Bargain lunch meats as a part of my Mid Morning snack once I have used more of the Hard Boiled Eggs. Roasted Chicken Breast, Roasted Ham and Italian Roast Beef. And some other meats to use as Proteins with my meals. Currently all residing in the Freezer Section
The scale was nicely lower than yesterday morning, again, It seems that the "Time-restricted eating" combined with a 100% NS plan is working really well so far. Whee

Congratulations on getting the Cast Iron Seasoning done. I have a Steel (?) really Deep sort of Wok Pan that has a small flat area on the bottom that keeps it on the burner properly. I used it for Deep Frying and other foods that needed the depth. I did also use it to cook a pound of Bacon ahead of when I planned to use it. Then I used the rendered Bacon fat to deep fry French Fries, They were very tasty cooked in the Bacon fat
I wish I warm temperatures here like that here. There is a possibility of Rain or Snow or a a mix that the forecast was saying could keep going back and forth during the fall.parityanimal wrote: »Howdy y'all. It's sensational Saturday! 31 out there now with an expected high of 48 and 0% chance of precipitation.
I don't think there is actually anything on the agenda for today. I am a little low on the cat food that Dinah and Kiara share, but I don't have to get it today. Tomorrow or even Monday, possibly Tuesday will be fine.
Hope everyone had a great Groundhog day!
The Actual Groundhog Day was good, The Eye Exam went well. No Glaucoma and what was described as only a small change in the prescription for glasses. I am hoping that I can get the same model frame as these are the most comfortable I have ever had.
The News showed that Punxsutawney Phil predicted 6 more weeks of winter. whereas Staten Island Chuck predicted an Early Spring

Roger I have the article on my desk top as a pdf file. I will try to attach it. I think I know what I did wrong with my earnings, taxes withheld, etc. Will go back and see if I can correct it. Funny how if you just spend some early morning time sorta awake, but not quite awake...you can often get answers!!! (or at least I think that is the issue)
So,on to attaching a pdf file...fingers crossed.
well as you may have guessed, That didn't work so well!!!
drag and drop///fail
attach file////fail
Later I'll do some clipping and cut and copy the darn thing!!! LOL!!
Right now I need to hit the shower, head to the gym, eat my lunch, and be home by 2p. The heat and air guy is coming between 2 & 4.
Later...
Hi Valerie
If You had a link to where You go the pdf file that would work
Oh, I do not recall You mentioning needing HVAC service.
Have a Good Day

Tonight's tasty dinner was beans (great northern for J, pinto, with bacon, for me), fried potatoes, and Mexican cornbread. Wine from Portugal.
Cornbread was baked in my 8 inch cast iron skillet and the potatoes were fried in my 10 1/4 inch cast iron skillet.
Now that I've got them all properly seasoned, they are all back to the accessible area of the cabinet and the non-stick stuff is largely put to the back. The cast iron is very heavy, but other than that it wins hands down.

Hi
I'm back from walking again and no cents. The temperature this morning was 28 on the porch and 30 on the cable news channel, 14 degrees warmer than yesterday.
There is rain in the forecast for later today.

Scientists believe a flip is long overdue, as the last one was approximately 780,000 years ago.

That sounds like a tasty Dinner, And of course almost everything is better with Bacon
It is a good trade off, weight versus handiness with the Cast Iron IMO.
Have a Nice Day
