Hi
Currently It is 66 degrees outside. The predicted high for today is for the 80s
Yesterday I had a phone call from the surgery scheduling person that due to schedule changes by the surgeon that my surgery was being moved from the 21st to the 14th. Since I still do not know what time I may or not be posting next Friday. I will ask my brother to use the email list to update You with the results once he has them.

Good Morning Edparityanimal wrote: »Howdy all y'all. It's thrilling Thursday! Cooler today and we have already had a few drops of rain, with more expected. But maybe I should go out to a store and give Mother Nature a chance to soak me, just to be sure.
I made bolognese pasta sauce last night and served it with rotini made entirely from red lentils. That was supper, and then breakfast this morning was more of the same, as will be at least two more meals. With that sauce, I really couldn't tell that the rotini was different than regular wheat pasta. It was fun trying it out and I may buy more sometime. It has more protein than wheat pasta and, being lentils, presumably better carbs.
We had a really short rain yesterday, however due to the previous days rain no watering will be needed until Saturday or Sunday and then more rain at some point Monday and/or Tuesday.
That's a new one to me, Red Lentils

Hello ValerieGardenKatGardens wrote: »Hi! I'm here!
I should have taken notes...lots of stuff there to open discussion!
The call night before surgery to learn Time and Where is indeed odd Roger. Never heard of that. But I guess you have many more hospitals/OR's than many of the places I've lived. Still, just odd.
Ostrich huh? Probably not any better or worse than what we have now, right? I was happy to see some articles lately about chicken not any better than beef health wise. Wasn't always that way. Wonder how it compares to rare duck breast?? That is/er, was sooo good!!!
I didn't watch Emmy...can't wait to see what those cookies? bars? are!
The only rationale I can come up with is that they have bought so many other hospitals and expanded all over the area. The place where I need to go for preadmission testing covers a city block including the parking garage. And I agree it seems odd.
Rain maker powers must be fading if even washing the car did not bring rain. Maybe we have used up all of the planets magicEd, I tried...after gym, about noon, I came home and ate my lunch so I wouldn't buy EVERYTHING at Kroger. And I stayed dry. Didn't get the 3-5 a.m. rain, not the later morning rain, and none of the afternoon rain either! I've even washed the car.... I think my 'rain maker' powers are waning! It was nice as far as temps went. I think tomorrow may be a yard morning. (we'll see if that tempts old Mother Nature!) ???
Hockey game to watch in half an hour. (I failed miserably, and forgot to watch the game Monday...must be getting old).
While at Kroger I picked up a package of vegetable sushi. Saving that for while I watch the game tonite. My Kroger has some really good sushi...Publix on the other hand is a total FAIL. Has some weird taste..like its not even close to fresh. Fortunately no sea food, or such involved..just carrot, cucumber, avocado, etc. I really like it...and it makes a decent dinner or lunch for just under $6.
It worked for my brother, Car washed Wednesday and Thursday road spray from the rain restoring the grime
It could be that since there is no seafood that Publix is pushing the Sell By Date to far out ?
That's news to me, I would have sworn that being wrapped up like that was safe, Oh well.That gif of the 'bubble' people running around and colliding and falling...always looked like safe fun...but I've read otherwise. Still....
The whisking...I always 'did' a combo depending on what I was whisking...but I have noticed that Ted does the back and forth motion (like the one what 'won'). Guess he picked that up from his years of working in restaurant kitchens. I know he learned to make some great pies, and killer chocolate chip cookies!!! I had to ask him to please stop making them every time I was coming to his apartment. They smelled sooo good. Not much is better than coming out of the oven chocolate chip cookies!!! And Ted can't smell. Sad!
Ok, game time is approaching...
Later...
I think the smell of bread baking is a tie with cookies TBH. And then Slicing it while still hot and letting the butter melt into it, Oh my, so good.
Have a Nice Day

Howdy all y'all. It's fantastic Friday! Warm today with 80% (hoping for 100%) chance of rain. Not a lot of requirements on the agenda.

Good Morning! Rainy...don't know how much. I've evidently changed the settings on my outside rain monitor, and I've 'had no rain'...but, the big puddle in the driveway, and a semi wet cat disproved that idea!! I don't know where Tom E. hid out from the rain, but his back quarters were wet...meaning 3/4ths of the cat was dry! He was hungry!! Also sat with me on the porch swing for about 5 minutes, purring sweetly. and keeping his claws retracted. (that's a near first, and very appreciated)
I doubt the issue with Publix is old seafood, as my sushi is meat free!
I need to duck out and retreive the trash thingy...you remember my old friend..."Herbie Curbie" ??? LOL! Its not raining and the driveway lake is down just enough that I can walk around it! Ok, done.✓
I did watch the French Toast...the vegan one did look interesting, and was well liked apparently! Not likely to make it..though I should, just for grins.
And the cartoon of the keys to the lock, being locked onto the lock...I've actually seen that happen when I worked at the gym.. solution? buy a new lock!
Thanks Roger for the schedule update. That's one week less time to worry/fret over the upcoming surgery.
Will watch for an email from 'brother'. (wonder if he'll include his name, or just sign it off as 'brother'? )
Ok, I need to make some use of my rainy day and go to the gym later this afternoon...like between noon news and about 2:30. (don't want to workout during my nap time!!!) Also Friday traffic around here is so messed up. Folks trying to get shopping or other issues done 'before the rush', and the leaving early, its Friday mentality, which therefore creates traffic issues! Kinda amusing if you think about it!

Hi
Currently It is 65 degrees outside. The predicted high for today is once again in the 80s
I called NS yesterday and the person I spoke to adjusted the order as follows. Processing On: 09/05/2019
I got the car back $402.60, Considering the List I had not that bad
1. State Inspection
2. Oil change and filter using Synthetic Oil.
3. Lubed the Door hinges, the noise was atrocious.
4. Replace failed fan speed resistor, I only had the top two noisy speeds left.
5. Replace the Driver side power window switch.
I should be hitting 17,000 miles on the car soon, I already filled the gas tank once this year I suspect that a lot of the repairs were due to really short trips with the car since it was new in 1999

Interesting, I hope You get the rain gauge working again. Can't the cat get on the porch to stay dry during rainy weather ?
I was not saying old seafood, I was trying to indicate that maybe the other ingredients were old ?
Driveway Lake The puddle at the foot of the sidewalk is always a lot smaller than at the foot of the driveway. My suspicion is that all these years going in and out have deepened that area.

I have to wonder how the heck You could think that was a good idea locking the keys on the lock.
I have no idea how he will sign it, That never occurred to me to think about.
I always wondered how employers feel about the workers that leave early on a Friday. All that does is extend the rush traffic IMO.

Howdy all y'all. It's soggy Saturday! 100% chance of rain, and fairly cool temperatures expected today. I don't plan on going anywhere if I can help it. We're glad for the soggy day!

OK!!
Looks like I watched video's read articles, and then..just didn't comment. I'm listening to a series about Herbs, Mushrooms, etc. Fascinating stuff! I've been known to eat some weird stuff...like cat tails that grow in ponds, or the flowers of that orange lily that grows along railways or country roads...etc.
Stayed home today! No gym...just me an my recumbent bike here at home. Visited with my friend, Laundry. did a little cooking, etc. and of course there was Tom E. And yes Roger he has access to the screened porch 24/7. Yet he hangs out on the roof rain or shine. (until he's hungry, then he comes to the door and yells!!! LOL! Also there was a short nap.
At this point, the kitchen is cleaned up, meals are planned for the next 2 days... and I'm ready to crawl into my bed and play games on the iPad. Ted beat me at our Scrabble game and started a new game, so I have some thinking to do. And as always a game or so of Suduko...maybe a jigwaw puzzle, and somewhere along that list of games I fall asleep. (usually with the lights on and ditto for my glasses!!)
Rained a lot here...over 2 inches today. Weather folk say more tomorrow and Monday... killjoys! No, we really needed the rain. Maybe not quite this much all at once...but will take it!!!
I'll try to check in earlier tomorrow...oh, and I had a Mega Millions ticket...won nothing. But still have a ticket to cash in from last week...I understand somebody in I think California won the big Mega Millions jackpot...oh, well!!!

You may be glad, I'm not so sure I like our forecast for the upcoming week.
Currently they are predicting rain on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Tuesday being the day I have to drive through rush hour traffic for the pre-admission testing and little ole me not having driven through rush hour traffic in the 90s
The last job I had that started in the mid 90s and lasted 16 years I could leave home at 9:50 AM and be at work for the 10 AM open and the return home was after the rush hour so I am not looking forward to rush hour in the rain.
Hopefully You did not have to go anywhere.

There are a lot of plants that are edible but not eaten normally. Something I had not thought about however is with Cattails You would only want to eat the ones grown in clean water.
Weird Cat, I do wonder if the hanging out on the roof is a hunting thing to locate prey ?

Hey Roger, quick note about your upcoming epidural...don't sweat it! I've had 2. First one birthing Ted...liked not having the mental fog for weeks, hair loss, etc. So, when I was up for my hysterectomy, I requested it over general anesthesia. Neither times was it uncomfortable. I'd do another if it was possible. Totally over conventional general anesthesia.
5 parts of the cat tail plant are edible. I've cooked and eaten them all, except the brown 'ripe' cattails...which I understand can be beaten/blended into flour.
I rather liked the 'hippy' settlement until I saw the pix with snow on the ground. Snow = cold, right? Nope not for me!!
Now, back to reading and watching....but, looking at the weather, now would be a 'last chance' to head for the gym without a Mother Nature outdoor shower. (I've already had one shower today...and it was a planned event in my shower!!

Thanks for the encouraging words, I know that lots of people have them. Just mentioning that for pain makes (made) me wonder how much pain is involved ? Especially after mention that they would be done for two days. Still better than narcotics IMO, Including all but excruciating pain then maybe an opioid ?
You country Girl knowing 5 parts are edible. If I had had to guess I would have thought two parts, Stems and roots
Agreed, pass on the snowy weather if possible. If I could I would be a snowbird, South for the winter and up north of here for Summer
I have a feeling I shall be getting wet Tomorrow when I go for the testing. Of course the day I could stay dry is Wednesday so the test is scheduled for Rainy Tuesday
Have a Nice Day

Howdy all y'all. It's marvelous Monday! Another warm day with 80% chance of rain. We did get more rain yesterday, and I wouldn't object to more rain today. The sun deserves a vacation after working so hard with a couple of weeks of heat wave. Pizza (Domino's) for dinner last night, so again for breakfast this morning and it will be like an old friend for lunch and supper.

Hi... rainy Monday...sunny morning? So far its been 'both'
Got into the gym just in time to avoid getting wet and worked out just long enough to stay dry upon leaving! Love it when that all works out!
So, from the time I started this, to now...I ate my lunch and still hungry...made a salad...made salad dressing, brewed a cup of my mushroom coffee, moved everything..computer, phone, water, and my dressed salad to the front room so I could watch the rain.
So, who's gonna run right out and get the 3 in 1 breakfast machine?? My excuse is not the rain, but a total lack of counter space!!
And then there is Emmy. Still not convinced that I need Mickey D's in my life. There's one across from the gym, but they don't need to keep the lights on for me!!
Roger should be home from his tests by now. Hope the traffic was not as bad as he anticipated, and that the rain held off til he was either out of traffic, or better yet home!!
Not only did Spam and canned ham have those opening keys, but so did the little tins of sardines, smoked oysters, etc. Some days I miss those little keys!!
Ok, salad is consumed, coffee agout half, but needs a temp boost, and then I'm pretty sure I feel a nap coming on!

Ok, watched the coffee vid. The mushroom coffee is what I am drinking. It isn't 'weak', I'm guessing that they filled the big mugs with hot water and added the coffee mix. Directions say heat eight ounces of water...8 oz is about half of those mugs. LOL! I like it the coffee. And the mushrooms are a nice addition to my 'diet'.
So I give the Irish Coffee judges a C- !! Folgers in a jar is not exactly a great coffee, and I'd for sure walk off before I had anything to do with durian coffee. Though I've eaten durian, once,. The smell is terrible, but the fruit itself really doesn't taste bad.
and all that said, I'm about to head for my nap! (and yes, I can drink coffee and sleep, usually!)

Hi
Currently It is 70 degrees outside. The predicted high for today is normal. The Monday rain that fell was not as bad a forecast from what I could see. Tuesdays rain made an appearance overnight and currently a light rain is falling. I dread driving in it for the Pre-Admission testing today, Rain, Snow or Low visibility seems to turn NJ drivers into Cretins. Some Drive their regular speed and other slow way down and as a result bad weather days have a plethora of crashes all over.

Good Morning Edparityanimal wrote: »Howdy all y'all. It's marvelous Monday! Another warm day with 80% chance of rain. We did get more rain yesterday, and I wouldn't object to more rain today. The sun deserves a vacation after working so hard with a couple of weeks of heat wave. Pizza (Domino's) for dinner last night, so again for breakfast this morning and it will be like an old friend for lunch and supper.
The one benefit of the rain we have had is that nothing has had to be watered so far this year, Knock wood that it stays that way the water bill amount is what I consider obscene.
How is the Domino's, darn for some reason from yesterday to this morning I have lost the z key used in the word Pizza, I had to copy and paste to get the word here. The other keys surrounding it all work, weird.
Not a lot of slices of Bacon on the first burger. Cheesy Bacon Fries are not new to the US, You can go to Wendy's and get their Baconator FriesMcDonald's Worldwide Favorites - tasting ALL the items - Spain Netherlands Australia & Canada
The Canadian Chicken sandwich reminds me of a Wendy's chicken sandwich.
This would appear to be the Swiss Army Knife of cooking devices. 20 minutes to fix coffee and a sandwich ? Pass on this device, a interesting idea that will likely sell.

The Smash Burger reminds me of a Hamburger place from the late 60s that put the hamburger meat on the grill in a round meatball shape. smashed them flat, sprinkled some onions that got mashed into the meat then flipped. Tasty.ALDI Grocery Haul For Father's Day & Epic Low Carb Smash Burger Recipe
