Hi
I'm back home from walking and no money was found. The Temperature out the door was 32 degrees. I did see three Deer while walking, one running down the road and a little later two running across the road.
No Surprise that NJ in the list.

I've given Lilo her Tuesday shot. Orion is having a bath in my lap, and the others are patiently(?) waiting to be fed in a couple of hours.
I need to be fed myself, but that will be easy enough as I have three servings left of my Moroccan Shepherd's Pie from last night. It should warm up nicely.
I might get out to a grocery today. Maybe.
Big scary yellow thing in the sky, I see that now and then this month too. Some change from all the cloudy overcast days. The one good thing about cloud cover overnight is that it holds the heat in and gives a warmer morning when I get out the door.
Just curious, did You ever work up a calorie count for that Shepherd Pie ?
I think I will make it to the Bank later today and refill my depleted Billfold then on to the Shoprite for a Gift Card and the savings buying there VS the Quick Chek where they charge a fee will more than pay for the wear and tear and fuel. On the way I will likely buy some Exxon gas and fill the tank since regular cash price is currently showing as $2.35 a gallon, This will be my last fill up for 2018Now all I need to do is avoid temptation, like that will happen
My brother and I both got the notice from SSI showing the change in amount for 2019, it looks like we both get something in the upper $40s, much better than the last couple of years where the increase was eaten up by the increase in Medicare.parityanimal wrote: »The easiest homemade pasta recipe?

Today, first up on the list is to move the load of dark laundry I started earlier today to the dryer, get my gym clothes on, hit the gym, get home eat, go to dentist, and leave from there to Sugar Hill and listen to my grandson's band concert. Hopefully that won't be too painful..the concert I mean...I've been known to turn off my hearing aids.......
The only trees with leaves at this point, looking out my window, are leaves on the huge old oak trees...all of which seem to end up in my yard. I think we have a nice day or two coming up, and I'll go blow some leaves around. Not enough to pester Ted to come do it. At least the oak leaves are BIG leaves and fairly easy to manipulate! I am just not skilled at using my leaf blower...
Ed, the pix of you sent of the black kitty made me laugh...not at the pix, but my brother went to pick up his NEW truck, and he and SIL decided to eat out...oncoming traffic, and a family of little wild black 'kitties', with white stripes ran into the road, with no where to go, he hit all four of them, and the ensuing 'aroma' totally killed his new truck smell. I understand my SIL laughed quite a bit! As am I.
Yuck, Dentist visit
I would expect a band concert to be pleasant unless the music is not to Your taste.
It took me a minute to get it, a family of little wild black 'kitties', with white stripes, then I got it Skunks are not something you even want to scare. They tend to be fearless due to natures defenses and thus they get killed like that sometimes.Have you tried any of the new crop of pears Roger? I got one a week ago at Kroger, and it was delicious! Wanting more!! Probably won't shop til at least Thursday..but Pears will top my list!
Ok, gotta go..wrist is shaking....

Thank You for the reminder

Howdy all y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday! -2C/29F with an expected high of 12C/53F and no chance of precipitation.
Need to feed the felines and get yesterday's cat bowls cleaned up. I also need to get out for some cat food for Lilo, and maybe meet up with yet another friend for a visit, but that last is in the maybe-maybe not arena, tending toward probably not, but we'll see.
And I'd like to get a nap in. Dishwasher ran overnight and is unloaded and put away.

Lucky You, We have a chance of Rain, sleet or snow in the forecast for todayIt seems to depend on where the weather goes and where You are located. And that was about as close as they wanted to pin down the forecast last night. Less than a day out and they won't give a firm prediction. One thing I am sure of is that our moron governor will spend more taxpayers dollars on pretreating roads and stationing equipment all over. He did not take criticism over his handling of the first snow of the season well. So now if there is a 1% possibility of snow he sends out everything, Think $$$ flying into the trash can.
I did fill the car yesterday the Exon was down to $2.33 and 9 tenths per gallon. I also saw a Conoco while I was out and about @ $2.17, I know the cars run OK on Exxon, Not to sure about Conoco as they have not been around the area for years. Also I would love to know the Alcohol percentage before buying. I know for example that the lawn mower says not to use E15 so I do need to buy E10 gas and I think the Buick being a 1999 should not use E15 either. It is now up to almost 17K on the Odometer and that is after the 3 stops yesterdayparityanimal wrote: »Inexpensive vegan holiday dinner.

Hi Valerie0 -
Howdy all y'all. It's thrilling Thursday! 3C/38F with an expected high of 12C/54F and no chance of precipitation.
Already got the felines fed and yesterday's cat bowls cleaned up. Might get out for a bit today. I lucked out at Kroger yesterday. The warehouse was overloaded on boneless pork loin and had shipped them two crates of very short time pork loins. I was there AS the butcher manager was giving them their final markdown to $0.77 per pound to do their best to get them out of the store and into people's freezers. As he's a friend of mine, he made sure to point out what he was doing, while I was perusing the other marked down meat.
I bought two of them, quite nice sized, one at $3.31 and one at $3.39. These are larger pork loins than I usually buy and i did consider cutting the largest one down into pork chops but, in the end, decided to freeze them both whole. I can always freeze leftovers after cooking a pork loin if I don't think I'll eat the whole thing within three days. And with these sizes I very well might not eat the whole thing within three days, but leftovers can be shredded and mixed with barbecue sauce or chunked up for making hash, or cut into bite size pieced for a quick pork Marsala...I can have lots of fun with leftover pork loin.
I also bought one marked down package (still not terribly cheap, but at least affordable) of shaved beef and made a beef, onion, and broccoli stir fry for dinner last night. I have at least two servings of this left, and will likely be eating one serving for today's lunch.

Breakfast on the go. And on a budget! I do have to wonder though, since he get stuff out of his "condiment drawer" so much, does he have to eat budget meals at home because he spends too much money on fast food trips? Or does he just pick up (steal is such a harsh word...) a "few" packets of every available condiment on rare fast food trips, whether it's a condiment he needs for that meal or not? And one wonders how many fast food napkins are in another drawer that he hasn't mentioned.
To me, if they GIVE me too many packets of a condiment, too many napkins, a utensil kit (with salt packet, pepper packet, and perhaps a napkin) that I won't use as I'm taking it home, or I just happen to grab one (or even two) more ketchup packets than I actually end up using, that's one thing.
But to deliberately grab big handfuls of extra napkins, condiments, plastic utensils, etc, is really just stealing and the person doing it may manage to justify it to himself somehow but it's still stealing, and he knows that deep down inside. Now if they really are so poor that they have to to this to get by, then one wonders whey they are even eating at a fast food joint, but I suppose someone may be treating them to a meal, and I guess I won't necessarily begrudge them the few packets of ketchup and the like, but the rest of us are paying for what they steal.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJtXlYsQj2s

Your pork story reminds me of something back when I temping as a driver before one of those turned into a full time job. I was delivering Cases of Beef to a store in the Philadelphia area and the meat manager was opening every case and looking at the cryovac meat. I asked why and he showed me, They were near the end of their life just like Your pork, He said I got a great price on these and he was looking for ones that had a failed Cryovac so he could use the first.

I have extra Napkins on hand from my coffee runs, sometimes I use them all and sometimes I don't since I can not foresee the future sometimes I run short and sometimes I have leftovers. DO I feel guilty, Nope.
I suspect that budget meals at home is just his thing for the YouTube Videos. and that he does a lot of Fast food eating due to the speed and convenience and TBH the stuff is semi addictive.
When I get Chinese Takeout I try to remember to tell them hold the rice and Fortune cookies for example. If I get The Chicken Wings I grab some of the salt packets since they just seem saltier and enhance the taste better than the Kosher Salt in the shaker here, Courtesy of my Brother who wants to use it up since he bought it for some recipe in the past.
Some of the Hamburger chains charge for extra sauces and condiments so maybe it does bother them.parityanimal wrote: »A couple of interesting, but not low carb, items in two back to back videos.parityanimal wrote: »Roger, I know you're interested in technology. You might like this one.

Roger said Hello Valerie....??? did I not post yesterday? Sorry, I guess!
Had a great day yesterday. Dr. Pat got me back in alignment. Apparently I was all out of whack. I do know there was a neck issue, and a rib that was being bothersome, on the other hand, my hips seemed to be ok, as she didn't do any thing involving my hips!And from there to Jimmy's for my much needed hair cut...followed by meeting Ted at Whole Foods to eat and shop. We tried to go to the Botanical Gardens, but it seems they are closing an hour early, and then reopening for the folks that have bought tickets to see their light shows. Oh, well.
There are now 2 Tesla's living on Ted's block, (one new one next door), and another around the corner...I had to stop and inspect them all of course!!!
And that left me coming home at the beginning of rush hour traffic on I-85 N. That really doesn't bother me, since I do it so seldom, and am never in a hurry anyhow.
Back in alignment, I bet You feel much better now. Have You seen the Whole foods thing I posted today before ?
It sounds as if There might be a Tesla in Your future ?
If I never have to go near rush hour traffic again it will be to soon for me even if I am never in a hurry.Our Costco here in GA is selling gas at $1.93 today. That is the difference between our state taxes on gasoline and the same in NJ.
I'm hungry already tonite. Hmmmm. Before I had changed clothes tonite, "O" messaged me that she wasn't going tonite. So, no trip to Sweet Tomatoes...and I think that's good. I ate my 'treat' Chicken Fried Tofu' yesterday and a small scoop of their Vegan Mac & Cheeze. And a healthy pile of broccoli.
My thought like yours Roger...vegan butter??? I haven't watched any of those just yet...will do so over my dinner.
later, i seem to have a lap full of cat
Vegan Mac & Cheeze, from Whole Foods or home made ?
No Sweet Tomatoes, saved some money I suppose that way.

Howdy all y'all. it's fabulous Friday! 7C/45F with an expected high of 10C/50F and 100% chance of precipitation, which I have not yet visually verified. It says to expect "occasional" rain starting at 7:45 but then the hourly forecast pretty much shows rain the rest of the day. Maybe it stops for the half hours or something, occasionally,
Need to feed the cats and get yesterday's cat bowls cleaned up. I had thought of possibly getting out in it but if it's that icky I will probably just stay inside except for getting the mail.
And of course rainy days are lovely for nap time. I'm sure the felines would be in full agreement with me on that.
