Howdy y'all. It's thrilling Thursday! 87 with an expected high of 89 and no chance of precipitation. I've been up since about 6:00 but distracted by this and that.
Lunch was leftover MOM'S MEATLOAF from what I made last night. Still plenty left for more meals and snacks.
Need to get some plants watered and wash out yesterday's cat bowls. Maybe a little vacuuming too.

Hi
I'm back from walking and found no cents. The Temperature out the door was 58 degrees. The day is nice looking with sunshine and forecast to be in the 80s.

Yesterday's Extra protein with Lunch and Dinner and my Mid-morning snack was a Salisbury Steak from the hot food bar of the ShopRite grocery store split into three portions. Today shall be the Chicken Parmesan from the same source split the same way.
On my return from walking I stopped behind the house and watered plants that are planted in pots. I also saw that a twelfth of the Gladiolus cormlets I planted in small pots had sprouted I will planting them into the ground next week. My brother suggested using the post hole digger which sounds like a good idea. That will create a perfect sized hole to take the contents of the pots.

Howdy y'all. It's fantastic Friday! 79 with an expected high of 90 and 40% chance of precipitation.
Need to clean yesterday's cat bowls, maybe get out to the store for a thing or two.

Howdy y'all. It's satisfying Saturday! I've been up for hours but distracted by various things.
Yesterday I visited with a friend and got his chandelier raised as high as it can be. I could still, barely, hit my head on it but I'm not nearly as likely to and he can walk under it now so it's good. In his parking lot I found two dimes and four pennies! Of course I thought of Roger as I picked them up.
I did get out today, as I fed the cats the last of the canned food this morning and had to run out to buy more. I waited until just after lunch, and stopped at Aldi on the way back. Then found that the road I wanted to take home was closed off for this weekend's city festival.
Honestly, it's too darned HOT for the festival and I'm not going. I had to detour to a longer route home, with my frozen and refrigerated items in the car. I'm sure they are fine as it wasn't THAT much longer but it was still annoying, especially as they put the sign where you might, barely, see it before you passed the last reasonably easy place to turn around or take another route, but where you'd more likely see the sign just as you were passing that last spot, necessitating a more difficult turn around.
To be fair, I've known about the festival coming for weeks but hadn't paid that much attention to exactly where it would be. I'm sure I'd find the Car Show interesting but no way am I getting out that much in this hot, Georgia, summer sun. I'd be a lobster for sure.
Still need to clean yesterday's cat bowls, cool off from putting the groceries away (Kiara didn't even wait for me to get them all out of the box before she climbed into the box) and then eventually take a nap, I hope.

Mr. Wolfe tries Popeye's fried chicken dinner. Pretty sure it's not fried in Olive Oyl though.

What I do is have a Box in the trunk of the car that I put frozen items in and have a Knitted Blanket that I put part of under the frozen or refrigerated and then the rest of the blanket wraps around the foods.

Howdy y'all. It's scintillating Sunday! 70 with and expected high of 90 and 20% chance of precipitation. We definitely got our precipitation last night, fairly late though so it didn't really affect my day much. A lot of noise around dinner time though!
Need to clean yesterday's cat bowls, feed cats, maybe do some laundry. I'll ponder that laundry...

This would probably work nicely with tofu too, though not sure what you would sub for the cream.

90 ! Yuck !
We already hit 100% rain today, It rained here enough after I was back home to make the streets wet and not enough to dampen the ground under the trees where it stayed dry.
The change found was semi weird, Once on the way out after picking up my coffee, then in the street outbound and then on the way back back home in the same locations again
I hate extraneous noise FWIW.
Darned, I meant to get the laundry going when I arrived back home, Oops.
Before I watch the video, IMO if You mainly feed them rice or pasta with a little meat ?parityanimal wrote: »Feed 7 people for $3?
OK I watched it, I did not think of Ramen although that is a sort of pasta.
Doesn't sound good to me.parityanimal wrote: »Banana cornbread pancakes.
Cheers, off to look at the videos...

What kind of Festival is it ?
It's just a "welcome to summer" sort of festival, but they do seem to always include a car show. I saw a number of tent/booths set up along what part of the road I could see, as I turned my van around, but honestly I have never gone to the Peachtree Corners Festival as it's always in the summer heat! I know it's not technically summer yet, but it feels like it down here.
