Roger?????? what makes you think I can see you? LOL! You could dye your hair like a rainbow and I'd not know it!
Lets see if I can get my refrig photo on this post...if not there I'll try again tomorrow when I'm not so tired.

I've been up for a while but Lilo did graciously(?) let me sleep in after I let her out of the bedroom at about 6:00.
Finally she did make me get up. I had my free Hormel Completes Spaghetti with meat sauce for breakfast along with a very small piece of the chocolate birthday cake I baked last night.
Today is J's birthday. Yesterday, being my birthday, I pretty much ate what I wanted, within reason. We went out to Cheeseburger Bobby's for dinner and I had a bacon cheeseburger with fries, and unsweet tea to drink. After we got home I made the cake and then we watched TV until the cake was cool enough to frost, at which time we had cake.
Then I made myself a martini for a nightcap and got to bed shortly after midnight. So I needed to sleep in a little bit this morning! Lilo let me have until about 7:00 and then it was time to get up!
I've eaten, the cats were just fed, and the dishwasher has been emptied and the sink cleared into it. I'm finally sipping my first mug of tea!
Not sure what I have on the agenda for today. Perhaps as little as possible.
Hi Ed
I have no idea what those mean ? Am I missing something obvious ?
Allow me to wish You a belated happy Birthday and happy Birthday J.
I love Bacon Cheeseburgers, I do use the NS Hamburger lunch sandwich for one sometimes, I use a 1/2 slice of Velveeta at 20 calories and cover the Burger with it, then I use a slice of Precooked Bacon, currently from CostCo and some ketchup. I consider the Cheese and Bacon as close enough for my NS Protein add in and use a smaller fruit as the NS Carb along with the ketchup. Sometimes I use a Low fat version of Thousand Island Dressing or Sweet Baby Rays on the Burger instead or Lettuce, Tomato, Miracle Whip and and bit of onion on the burger instead. I order 7 of the NS Burgers and 7 of the NS Chicken Sandwich lunches too as they can be added onto in so many ways such as I do with the Burgers excluding the ketchup of course.
I did have Earl Gray Tea with my breakfast yesterday a change from Coffee.
Have a Nice Day

Hi
Did I mention I picked up a Hamilton Beach Toaststation?
It has a two slice Toaster on top, and a Toaster Oven section below so it can do both well. Since I went that way I do have to watch the Toaster oven foods as it has no timer.

It looks pretty nice. No timer? Well, I'm sure you can time things another way until you learn approximately how long to cook any given item. It does seem rather odd that they didn't include a timer for the oven, so it would auto-shutoff after a certain number of minutes. On the other hand, if you want to bake something for an hour and a half, you won't have to go back to reset the timer.
My current one has a maximum of 45 minutes on the timer, but if you turn the timer knob the other way, you can just set it to "on" and it will stay on until you turn it off, in which case you you would need to watch the baking or set some other timer to remind you.
And with the one you bought your brother can make toast in his "traditional" way.
So I think you have a winner there.

Thank You for that explanation, If I had spent days thinking about it I doubt I would have gotten that
It was inexpensive, I bought the older model based on the reviews on Amazon. The lack of a timer did not bother me. We do have a wind up timer I can use, Simple and foolproof unless You forget to put it where You will hear itparityanimal wrote: »Hi

I want to try it on a NS pizza as a test this weekend.
I am used to winging it, The Microwave we have is a 700 watt unit and I had to get used to how long to heat NS entrees in it. Example a 1 1/2 minute 100 watt time becomes 2.2 Minutes and a 1 3/4 1100 watt NS melt needs 2 3/4 minutes.
Have a Great Evening

Dinner tonight was at Planet Bombay, an Indian restaurant in Little Five Points, that we've never eaten at before.
The food was GREAT, though a little on the expensive side.
J had a Mango Drink and we ordered Onion Bhaji, Samosa Chat, Tofu Tandoori, Aloo Ghobi, Bullet Nan, and then Chicken Bhuna for me.
Leftovers for a couple more meals for sure.
It was a good birthday dinner for J.0 -
Howdy y'all. It's satisfying Saturday! 68 out there now with an expected high of 80 and 0% chance of rain.
Heading (supposedly) to Augusta today for an orchid festival. We'll see whether J actually gets up for it and whether G shows up in our driveway to ride down with us...she was supposed to be here at 7:00.
I've eaten and cats are about to be fed. Lilo has already had her morning Clavamox, with was rather a sharp surprise to her but she got a treat, some cheese, and one tiny bite of my Spam from my Spam, egg, and cheese sandwich. That was pretty much the whole breakfast, for now. I will likely get more food on the way to Augusta or when we get there. Or not, if we don't go, in which case I'll just drink some juice or something...

Hi
I went walking this Morning. The temperature this morning was 58 on the news channel and 56 degrees on the front porch and back yard thermometer.
I stopped at the Grocery Store and picked up some on Sale Sliced Turkey Breast and Sliced Ham to use as a part of my Mid-morning snack. I also saved 12 Cents by using their discount key tag.

Hi Ed
I can excuse somewhat expensive as long as the the food is really food, Sadly I have had Expensive and not to good. Needless to say I did not go back.
I heard or read somewhere that most Indian Cuisine is Vegetarian Based.
Leftovers from tasty, Whee!

Nicely Crisped Spam is something I like, OTOH I do not recall using it for a breakfast sandwich. I always ate it as fried or Fried in a sandwich. Strangely enough I do not like it as is from the can.

Wow! A cold front must have come through, but with no moisture.
58 out there now and an expected high of only 75 with 0% chance of rain. Howdy y'all. It's scintillating Sunday!
My breakfast pasta and cheese (I made this!) is just about ready in the microwave, being on it's last cycle of 50% cooking to just finish up thickening the sauce.
I'll add some pepper and chow down in a minute.
Need to do laundry today.
I just heard a ding!
