    Just curious, Salt on eggs for the cat, Were they cooked in butter, Olive Oil or Vegetable oil.

    How hard would it have been to make the cat food bowls dishwasher safe considering how many people use dishwashers. I'm guessing that if they were dishwasher safe they would also be Microwave safe, OTOH why would anyone heat cat food ?

    Like all all creatures on this Earth, cats need salt too. I figured the little bit of salt I put on eggs wouldn't be a problem for her. The eggs were cooked in ghee (clarified butter). She could have eaten pepper on the eggs too, but I gave her a bit without the pepper, figuring she really doesn't need much of that in her diet.

    Actually, many people heat cat food. If you buy it in larger cans, refrigerating what isn't served, or if your cat prefers that "freshly killed warm" temperature for the food, people will warm the cat food briefly in the microwave. Not enough to get it HOT, but just a bit warm. This can also increase the aroma for cats who want their food a bit smellier or who need to smell it to find it, or to want to eat it, if ill.

    Hi, its been a rainy, foggy, yuck kinda day! Coming right after sunny 70's made it even worse.
    Made a Whole Foods run...wanted some 365 veg. hot dogs, nope. Wanted a jar of Veg. mayo, nope. Wanted some mixed black and white sesame seeds, nope. Wanted some Chicken Fried Tofu...YEP!!! I found this all very weird. They are reconfiguration my Whole Foods. Will be curious to see it when its finished. I can't decide if its because they now do locker pick up or what.
    Tom's still outside. Bet I'd better let the little monkey faced cat in the back door!

    Oh, several days ago Roger asked...BTW is the Factory grown meat acceptable to a vegetarian (vegan) if it is grown in a vat and not from a animal ? Does this actually exist? I can't speak for the vegan or vegetarian followers, but I for one wouldn't eat it. There's already enough crap made up food out there...why ingest even more? I really do prefer whole unadulterated real food. They need to leave the lab made foods out of it. Does this really exist? she asked again, shaking her head!!!

    Not much else going on around here.

    Later...

    Hi
    I'm back from walking again and no cents. The temperature this morning was 42 on the porch. Yesterday was in the low 60s. Today is predicted to be dry with rain arriving later in the day and heavy Friday possibly turning to snow Friday depending on where in NJ You are located.

    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.

    Howdy y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday! 50 out there now with an expected high of only 59 and 100% chance of precipitation. If I get out at all it will just be to Aldi. I do need some paper towels but as I just put the last roll (double size) on the dispenser this morning, I can probably wait until tomorrow.

    Breakfast this morning was the rest of the pancakes, along with chicken fried pork cube steak, using, this time, self rising flour for a softer outer texture. I think it also makes a slight difference in the gravy, which I did make, of course, using some of the excess seasoned flour and all of the milk used for dredging, but not enough of a difference in the gravy to matter. I always imagine I detect a slight difference in the "texture" of the gravy too, when using self rising flour, but that may just be my imagination. I doubt the average person would notice any difference. They MIGHT notice that the texture of the fried coating on the steak is a bit softer. Just a bit.

    At any rate it was delicious and there is a piece of fried steak left for tomorrow and some leftover gravy too. I think tomorrow's breakfast will be nice, if I don't eat it for lunch today. :)
    Hi Ed
    Just curious, Do You ever use corn starch for a coating ?

    I am guessing that the Pork Cube Steak is done the same way as Cube Steak ? And possibly for the same reason, to tenderize a tough cut of meat.
    I'm guessing that possibly Your Chicken Fried Cube Pork ends up similar to the Pork Tenderloin that was used in sandwiches when I was Young.

    https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/entertainment/dining/2017/01/31/where-find-iowas-five-best-pork-tenderloins/97049844/
    Tenderloins are the mainstay at Nick’s. Eighty percent of the restaurant’s food sales are pork tenderloins, with about 1,000 sold per week.

    TMI ?

    I tend to buy our paper goods at CostCo, those being Kleenex, Charmin TP and Paper Towels since we have a cabinet that can hold the cases of Paper Towels and TP in the laundry room next to the washing machine and the case of Kleenex lives in the back bedroom in a corner :smiley:
    Dinah approved of the gravy, and she got to lick some up on a paper plate. Lilo and Kiara declined.

    I still need to wash up the knife I'll use to divvy up the cat food in a bit, but all the rest of the "sink" cleanup is done, including, of course, my largest cast iron skillet, which is all washed, dried, and has it's usual very thin coat of "after cleaning" oil applied to the cooking surface.

    Dinah is jonesing for food now, but she can wait. She did have s snack of gravy after all, albeit not much of one...
    My brother does not want to use soap on his cast iron skillet, he claims it will ruin the seasoning ? He wipes it out with hot water while it is still hot and uses paper towels to finish the process.

    Hi Valerie
    On last nights weather forecast they showed heavy rain moving through the Atlanta area today.
    Rain is forecast to arrive here around 2PM moving in from the west, the timing depending on where in NJ You are.

    It is also possible that they still had those items, just relocated ? When they were moving things all over in the ShopRite my brother made stops at the Courtesy Counter to get the new locations and be sure they still had the items if he did not find them.

    In answer to your question if lab made meats exist here are a couple of links.
    https://gizmodo.com/the-future-will-be-full-of-lab-grown-meat-1720874704
    In 2013, the world’s first lab-grown burger was unveiled to the world. It carried a $330,000 price tag, and apparently, it wasn’t all that tasty. But the scientists behind the idea have been hard at work, and artificial meat that’s both cost-effective and palatable may arrive sooner than we think.

    It’s not just cow-free beef burgers on the future menu — several groups around the world are attempting to clone chicken breasts and fish fillets, as well. Why do scientists want to grow meat in vats instead of on animals, and how close are we to actually accomplishing it?


    https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/lab-grown-meat-is-on-the-way/
    Lab-Grown Meat Is on the Way

    It's good for the planet, and surveys show that significant numbers of people would be willing to give it a try


    As I understand it the meat grown that way will be unadulterated, I could also be wrong.

    That is why I wondered if You for example would eat it, If It were indistinguishable from a Hamburger made the usual way ?

    Have a Nice Day and Stay Warm & Dry

    The Georgia Senate’s leaders vowed to block a lucrative tax break bill on Monday that would benefit Delta Air Lines after the Atlanta-based company severed ties with the National Rifle Association.

    Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle said he would not support tax legislation that helped the airline “unless the company changes its position and fully reinstates its relationship with the NRA.” He echoed a growing number of conservatives who opposed the measure over the weekend.

    Howdy y'all. It's ... what the heck is it...thrilling Thursday! And it's March 1. 55 out there now with an expected high of 69 and 90% chance of precipitation.

    I've been fed, the sink is cleared, and the dishwasher is running. Lilo is lying near me on my desk while Kiara and Dinah are busy working up an appetite chasing each other all around the place. Dinah has really been full of it this morning, trying to play with J's reading glasses (on his desk), one of his violins (hanging on the wall) and just tearing around like a lunatic. Kiara is happy to join in on the "tearing around like a lunatic" as playing chase/hide and seek is one of her favorite games.

    I managed to slip out to Aldi and get back. Within minutes of my putting away the groceries, it was raining. Talk about perfect timing! I managed to just barely avoid the rain.

    Then Eduardo got out to mess with lunch. I was going to just have plain mac and cheese for me and breakfasty stuff for J but NOOOOOOOO. Now some garlic jalapeño 4 cheese mac and cheese gratīn, topped with crumbled potato chips and more parmesan is in the oven. Well, the leftovers can be tonight's dinner carb I guess, if it's any good.

    Hello from stormy GA!
    That first storm that rolled through was a humdinger! The wind was reported as 69 mph at the airport. I'll believe that! Tom was outside but as soon as the rain started he headed for the house...and then cracking and huge raindrops,and that unbelievable wind!! Yikes, I was about ready to head for the bath tub!

    I freaked Tom E out earlier in the morning...he's gotten the morning routine down pat, and so at the appropriate time in my morning shuffle from bedroom to kitchen (thyroid med) back to the Keurig for my hot cup of coffee, he goes to the rocking chair and sits patiently? in front of it. Today I surprised him....after my thyroid pill I stretched out on the living room rug. He didn't know what to think about that...wouldn't get too close, etc. I would talk to him and reach out to pet him, etc. He wasn't too sure about me touching him either!!! It was a hoot!

    Trash night, and I've already put the cart at the street before the driveway flooded. I'll take the recycles out after this rain and wind has moved into the Carolina's. Lights keep dimming, but so far no loss of power. Guessing there's a downed tree nearby?

    I think it might be a good time for at least a short nap.

    Roger, no I would not want to taste/eat lab made meat. Unadulterated??? I'd say whole thing is adulterated. So far science does not have a very good record on that kind of thing. No, that's a nope from me...a violent one, like the kids that taste ethnic foods that Ed posts!!!
    Those kids are a handful. Cute and sometimes funny...but nope I'm not eating that! Ewwww! :)

    Hi Valerie
    I bet the airport paused landings and takeoffs with that kind of wind, We are supposed to have gusts up to 60 today and the news said that it would likely cause that problem at the three airports in the NY Metro area.

    Change the routine and freak out the cat, interesting.

    Might get out to the store today. Would be a good day for it. Might also do some laundry and a little bit of house cleaning.

    I've eaten and the cats will eat after J gets up. Dinah would rather have hers now, if you please, but no, she can wait too. :)

    I would not have thought of heating cat food for those reasons, live and learn :smile:

    The pork cube steak is made, usually, from the less tender shoulder cuts, and yes, it's to tenderize the meat. It usually works quite well too, as it can be fairly quickly cooked up as opposed to the long, slow cooking that pork shoulder usually requires. I've had it as chicken fried steak, smothered steak, or just seasoned and quickly pan fried with no breading at all. I like it best chicken fried, but am happy with it the other ways as well. It can be used pretty much in all the same ways that a beef cube steak can be used, with the slight caveat that, of course, pork tastes different than beef and the seasoning and/or herbs might need to be adjusted accordingly.

    I (and most people) generally wash cast iron the same way. Very hot water, and I use a plastic scrub brush as needed. J's stainless steel wok is washed the same way. A sponge with a little soapy water in it, used occasionally, won't really hurt the seasoning, as the seasoning is bonded to the metal. All the same, most people don't use it. Now leaving any high acid foods(like tomato or lemon, or even eggs), vinegar, or alcohol in the pans, for any significant length's of time, will damage the seasoning, but it's OK to cook with them as long as you don't let them soak, and wash the pan thoroughly with hot water right away. It's best to not cook high acid foods with a freshly seasoned pan, but cook other things for some time before using the pans to cook the high acid foods. And don't be afraid to use plenty of fat when cooking eggs, or they will stick, especially in pans where the seasoning coat hasn't built up thoroughly yet.

    I'm sure feral cats do get a significant amount of salt from the blood in their prey, as well as any salt that may be in food that kind humans leave out for them. Commercial cat foods include the salt that the cats need, I'm sure.

    Hi! Your early evening poster here!
    Went to the gym, made a huge pot of red beans and rice soup. That will be dinner when it comes out of the IP.

    Roger the NRA and DELTA have been all over our news and newspapers. They're also speculating about h ow this will affect our standing in the current process of enticing Amazon's second HQ to GA. Not going to stress or worry about it. I'd really like to out all the OTHER flying folks on Delta who get company discounts. I know that when I was on Red Cross business, I flew the discounted rate...and there was a long list of companies.

    I'll second Rogers comment about your dinner looking delicious Ed!! Give Eduardo a hefty pat on the back for me when you see him next! And I was really glad to see J's bbq tofu! Looked good, and I'm sure it WAS great.

    Ok, IP is beeping to get my attention.

    Later...

    Hi
    I'm back from walking again and no cents. The temperature this morning was 37 on the porch. Yesterday turned very windy. The rain at the start of the day turned to snow before 10AM. Luckily the snow never stuck to the ground and this morning the ground is dry. The winds are starting to abate, however the power did go out before 5AM for a few minutes.

    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.
