Good early afternoon...
I have been up quite awhile...I have accomplished nothing! LOL!
Watching the live feed of hurricane M. as he roars to shore...All I can say is OMG! And as I typed...big chunk of something like a roof? just blew down outside their windows. I couldn't see it, but they watched a neighboring house 'rolling down the street' in front of where they are holed up...
Roger you asked, and I don't expect/we aren't getting any rain from this hurricane. We'll be on the NW side, and dry. They, locally are saying maybe gusts of 30-35 mph for here. (trees come down, take power lines, I could end up in the dark for awhile. Have gas stove, so I could bake, broil, boil, etc veggies.. As long as those BIG TALL Pine trees stay standing, I'm OK!
I did 'something' to my left foot last Wednesday...and I've been taking Aleve, icing, soaking in warm Epsom Salts, etc, and it seemed to be doing better....until today. I stepped my good foot up on a slight step and started to lose my balance...put weight on the left foot...and now it really hurts..a ...lot. SO this morning I'm doing 20 minutes on and 20minutes off the ice pack. Joy, joy!! (forget the 'happy happy part)
I follow a web site called @kitchn.com (no 2nd i...) and there have been a lot of recipe's for crock pots and many others for casseroles, stove top, etc. and a good few for Vegans. I've thought of both of you as I've been reading thru them...they've also been featuring Costco finds for organic rice, vegetables, prepared meals, etc...and also highlighting Trader Joe's also. The Teriyaki Udon noodles that Roger asked about...I really don't remember, exactly where, but it was in those refrigerated isles that make up the meat and cheese area.
Ok, the sun is out, and for a minute the breeze stopped, but it has returned...(good confusing mosquitoes!!!)
I'm going to stand on my nice cushioned mat in my kitchen, and unload the dishwasher, and then address the two sinks which became 'holding/soaking' areas yesterday evening...
Later...0 -
Still working on my daily goals....lol, not.
but I do have rice cooked, and laundry in the dryer, etc...(also a little nap, which explains lack of progress in my day).
Have watched more TV lately than I have watched in years...today was the hurricane.. we are getting some rain, a reported tornado on the west side of ATL...(Ed and I are on the eastern side of ATL..., just for reference Roger.)

Tonight's home made beans and bacon with home made cornbread crisps.

Cornbread Crisps
1 cup cornmeal (NOT self-rising, and NOT corn meal "mix", just corn meal) I used House Autry Yellow Plain Corn Meal
1 cup warm (not real hot, but pretty warm) water
1/2 tsp salt
Heat about a quarter inch of oil in a pan, to medium high heat. If the oil isn't hot enough, you'll just make a big mess!
Mix the cornmeal, water, and salt. It will be a pretty thin batter.
Drop by spoons full into the hot oil, turning when brown on bottom and center can be easily pulled from the bottom.
When brown on both sides, drain on paper towels.0 -

Hi
I'm back home from walking and No Money found. The Temperature out the door was 73 degrees and uncomfortable due to the humidity. There is rain in forecast that is predicted to be in the 1 to 2 inch range with wind in the 30+ MPH.

Hi Edparityanimal wrote: »Howdy all y'all. Its wonderful Wednesday. 73 with an expected high of 81 and 80% chance of PM thunderstorms.
Got my van dropped off at a dealership early this morning. Hopefully they will be able to finally fix the intermittent dinging and dash lights going nuts after having my local shop give up on that. My local shop DID get some other things fixed up that needed fixing and I'm pleased with the work they did. The engine sounds better than it has in a long time, especially after replacing the generator. The old one had a bad bearing.
My local garage was pretty sure that the Engine Control Unit needs to be replaced, as they looked at EVERYTHING else electrical, and determined that when the weirdness happens, the voltage is spiking to around 15. As the voltage is not regulated in/at the generator in this van, they said it IS regulated in the ECU but that they were not equipped to replace that unit, as it has to be programmed after replacement.
So, I think it's either the ECU or the van is just possessed. In any case, it will hopefully be exorcised well before Halloween. LOL.
Need to clean up the cat bowls and feed the cats. I have already got beans started in two slow cookers for tonight's dinner. The small one has some plain Great Northern beans for J, with just salt. The larger one has Great Northern beans, some extra spicy Mrs. Dash seasoning, some salt, some black pepper, and four thick slices of bacon that I cooked up fairly crispy and then cut up into bite size pieces.
That takes care of the first package (12 OUNCES!) of that bacon. I've liked it well enough with breakfast or in a club sandwich but notice that one end does seem to be a bit chewy. At any rate, later, if I feel like it, I may add some tomato sauce or paste to my pot, near the end of the cooking time, to make it into some nice bean and bacon soup, or I may just eat it as beans. Either way, some cornbread is definitely on the menu tonight to go with the beans. And for J I may make some fried potatoes as he's not too crazy about cornbread.
And I want a nap.
The ECU sounds expensive, Maybe it will be something cheaper, Good Luck
Hopefully the Exorcism works.
Bacon and Bean Soup sounds delicious to me.
Enjoy the Dinner

Howdy all y'all! It's thrilling Thursday! 71 with an expected high of 77 and 0% chance of precipitation. My brother, a little further south and east, survived the storm with no apparent issues other than his dogs not wanting to "go" on mats in the garage, since nobody, even the dogs, got out of the house during the storm. First world problems.
I tried, but then remembered, too late, that the chimney damper was closed...well maybe I'll get to see a golden unicorn some other time.
Still got to clean up yesterday's cat bowls and feed the cats. The feeding stall I designed for Dinah, to keep Oliver from pushing her away from her food and eating it, seems to be working well. If she's eating, he CAN'T get in there with her.
He was pushing her head to the side, and eating her food, while she was keeping the lid open by keeping her head in there trying to eat her own food. Now she can eat in peace and he has to eat his own food.
There was already no room for him to try that on Kiara, as there's a wall on that side of her bowl, and the other side has an open door against it. And if he were to try with Queen Lilo, well, she doesn't take any crap from anyone, especially an upstart young interloper. LOL.

Crock pot, all day long. Of course the beans were soaked for nearly 24 hours in salted water, then rinsed and put in the crockpot with the seasoning and bacon. Nice and tender, yummy beans. Bacon works about as well as ham, but with a slightly different flavor and quite a bit less meat than I usually leave on a ham bone.
The cornbread crisps, as you can see, turned out very thin and crispy. The batter is VERY thin actually and as you drop it in the oil (yes, not quite smoking temperature, level 6 out of 10 on my electric stove) it makes little circles with holes in them, that cook fairly quickly. Done this way, I was able to spoon a bit of the beans and bacon on top of a cornbread crisp and enjoy them both in one bite.
I have a method that makes them even thinner and crispier, and bigger around, unless you use a smaller spoon for the dropping. For the thinner and crispier ones, use twice as much water, but it should be boiling hot, and mixed quickly with the corn meal to make a thicker batter. That sounds like it would be thicker when cooked, but actually the corn meal is half cooked by the boiling water. Remember it's got twice as much water in the batter, so even though it is thicker, there is twice as much water to cook out of them. When you drop them in the oil, they become almost paper thin then and take a bit longer to cook, because of the additional moisture. But talk about crispy! Wow! A bit too delicate for what I wanted last night, but very nice to just munch on.

Hey, I'm here!
Started reading about 11:30, got side tracked by laundry, making lunch, etc..lots of etc...so, had to say Hi, cuz its now or never today. Trash day, O's gym night, etc.
I did notice about 4.5 inches of rain in my rain gauge...which was empty on Tues night...I don't think we got any really big rains Tues night, but sure did start raining for real yesterday...yeah, mostly after I went to bed, I think. I do remember hearing rain on the windows as I was crawling in to my 'nest'...(Ted's only 2 points ahead of me in Scrabble...need some BIG point moves)
I barely moved yesterday, you can ask Fitbit...and foot pain much improved. ??? maybe it got more rested? maybe whatever was pulled, stretched, whatever has begun healing...maybe it is the Black Seed oil, maybe it was just cramping and it was the Magnesium rub?? I'll take it which ever...
Winds gusty, sunny, and the big chill starts tonite. Have my root veggies all ready to roast.
Ed, long long ago Thanksgiving was always spent at Myrtle Beach...and there was a place there that made the cormeal crispies...very thin, definitely fried, (not sure they were deep fried) but they were lacy and thin and hot, and more addicting than any potato chip ever put in a bag........mmmmmmmm!!!
Ahhhh, new dryer for your house Roger! Nice. I was looking at my Maytags and silently begging them to last another 10 years.
Ok, stuff to do still, the last load of laundry is buzzing, so theres that...... and I'm sure more.

Hi
I'm back home from walking and No Money found. The Temperature out the door was 62 degrees and comfortable due to the low humidity and breeze.
There was rain overnight, I had heard it hitting the bedroom AC around 3AM and with the breeze things were drying out by 5AM. I did see three come out of a driveway and go trotting down the street on a street where I had not sen them before.

Using extra water like that sounds counter-intuitive but if it works as a pragmatist why not use that method.

I do not think where we are in NJ got that much rain as the future cast during the weather forecast showed most of the heavy rain further south in NJ and out on Long island.
Good Luck with the Scrabble.
Sidetracked, Easy to do, My brother and I both have that tendency and then toss in, falling into the internet and there goes the day.
Quite often I start reading the news links my brother forwards and find that the side links are more interesting than the original links. I could go find my own news but why duplicate my brothers searches
Sometimes You just need to take it easy and let nature do the healing. Good Luck getting 100% pain free.
Overnights in the 40s to 60s were being shown in the 7 day forecast in last nights weather reports. That is when You can see them, The local weather people have this habit of standing in front of the parts that we are interested in. Such as NJ rain totals, Dew points and temperatures, and part of the 7 day forecast. One station even has a 10 forecast, I'm not sure if they use the farmers almanac or a Ouija Board to forecast that far aheadWinds gusty, sunny, and the big chill starts tonite.

There is a bit of a learning curve with the new more feature laden controls on the new dryer. We likely will leave it set on the default of regular loads, high heat and 1 hour most of the time. Those worked for both of my brothers loads and then my load was still damp so I started it again, looked at it a little later and it showed to left as 8 minutes so the Load Moisture feature works. Next Time I will bump up the time left setting to be longer.
I kind of wish we could have gotten the Maytag, $10 difference but nothing on the back to keep things from falling behind and that was a deal breaker for my brother. More expensive was the Speed Queen and that would have been OK for me too, my Frugal, OK Cheap brother nixed that and since he was paying 1/2 the tab that was that.
So if I am reading You post correctly your Maytag are 10 years old now ? Even our cheap GE dryer lasted 15 years so I would expect better from You Maytag.
Good Luck

Howdy all y'all. It's fantastic Friday! 52 with an expected high of 73 and 0% chance of precipitation.
I need to get some laundry started, clean yesterday's cat bowls, and feed the cats. Doubt I'll get out anywhere today, unless J wants to go somewhere this evening, or unless my van is ready to pick up today, but I'm not holding my breath on that. When I dropped it off, they said it might be as long as a week, which is fine. If I desperately need to get out to a grocery store, I can just use J's vehicle.

I need to get some laundry started, clean yesterday's cat bowls, and feed the cats. Doubt I'll get out anywhere today, unless J wants to go somewhere this evening, or unless my van is ready to pick up today, but I'm not holding my breath on that. When I dropped it off, they said it might be as long as a week, which is fine. If I desperately need to get out to a grocery store, I can just use J's vehicle.
Most of my to do list is now finished, Walk, Mail 4 pieces of mail and home. Still to do with no urgency as I have only used one check from the last set is drop off the Check Reorder form for the free banking that comes with free checks
I am somewhat curious if they gave You any clue as to where they were going to look for the problem with You vehicle ?
