Good Morning Ed.
Soon to jump up from my leisurely morning cup of coffee, and get ready to head to Decatur. If my weather app is correct, rain shouldn't start here until after I am home. fingers crossed on that!
I want to stop at Whole Foods and get my fix of Chicken Fried Tofu, then on to Trader Joe's...I want another couple of their Veggie Burgers, as they are quite good, and last time at TJ's, as a whim I picked up a bag of Garlic and Onion Pistachios...really good. Flavor not over powering, but definitely tasted. And it takes awhile to eat them...shelling etc. Better that already shelled which I can scarf down very quickly!! Dirty little secret...I will also pick up one of their bars of dark chocolate. Decent enough chocolate, cheap, and lasts about 6 weeks! I don't want/need? chocolate every day, but when its time for chocolate fix, there'd better be some in this house! LOL!!!
Not much else on the agenda...if I get home early enough maybe a nap??? if it just rains, and doesn't storm, that would be a perfect nap!!
Hope you have a good day, that your 'today list' isn't overly long, and that you find some really sweet things to tempt your pallet AND you wallet!!! (that can be a tall order!!)

Howdy all y'all. It's thrilling Thursday! Cooler today with a good chance of mostly afternoon, evening, and overnight showers. We did get some rain yesterday, but Mother Nature was apparently in a good mood and didn't throw in a lot of wind, fireworks, and noise. I did get out to Lidl yesterday and spend more than I needed to, but we will eat all that I bought so it's all good.

Good Morning Ed, she said just realizing it is now afternoon!!
I watched Day 2 of the DNC, and lost all track of time.
My only chore is feeding myself and the 8 paws, and getting the trash together so Ted only has to push the containers to the curb tonite. Oh, I may have to get some exercise into my day
I'm sure its good for me, so why do I think of 50 other things to do instead?
Need to watch Emmy, what DOES one do with one pineapple and one cuke??? I'm sure I'll find out! I dare not watch grandma and all those Oreo's. Oreo's my cookie of choice...and they are vegan. (not to mention filled with an awful long list of chemical additives that nobody needs)
Your making me really curious about your new grocer. I may have to come your way for a 'look-see' for myself.
Yesterday I did not go to Trader Joe's....I pulled into the parking lot and parked...got nearly to the store and saw the line of people, long line of people waiting for their turn to shop. Nope, not a planned event in my agenda for the day. I was only stopping for more of the Onion and Garlic Pistachio's, and the TJ frozen veggie burger. I can wait, or I can drive over to the Forum. I think if it had been any time other than noon thirty, there wouldn't have been a line...or????
I hope today brings nice rain, but not storms. We got rain yesterday evening too. I tried to get Missy Maya up and out for a walk before it started...she wouldn't even get out of her bed! Ted came home....and she popped up like, 'FINALLY'.. I get to go for my walk.....little brat dog! LOL!
Take care, grab a nap, and cook some thing really tasty for dinner!!

Howdy all y'all. It's fabulous Friday! It's a LOT cooler out there this morning, and sprinkling now. I went outside to push the Four O'Clocks back into the flower bed, as they get too tall and lean out (and fall) over the front door sidewalk, especially badly after rain. They lean that way to try to reach the sun. I have to periodically push them back, even without rain, but it's worse right after a rain. I love the flowers, but am not overly fond of the insane growth habit they exhibit where I planted them. They aren't normally supposed to get as tall as they do, but I think, in reaching for the sun, they overreach themselves because of the hedge on the other side of that walk.
Still, they create a lovely display of blooms all summer long, so I am not going to even attempt to remove them. As aggressive as they are, I doubt I could ever completely eliminate them anyway. I still have a few passion flowers growing in the hedge that I have been trying to keep down for years. But I originally planted them, so there is no one else to blame if I find them annoying sometimes. LOL.
We had breakfast for dinner last night. I had scrambled eggs with sausage crumbles and cheese, with one gloriously tall buttermilk biscuit (from the freezer) and some bacon. For J I prepared some hash brown patties in the toaster oven, and made an omelet Palm Beach. For that, the filling was gourmet pimiento cheese with jalapeno.

Good Morning Ed!
It's gonna be a great day! Overcase, bits of rain now and then...I think I can't hold my eyes open for very long. I hd my coffee, banana and openfaced BB&J...and now all I can think of is wanting a nap.
Stayed up watching the last day of the DNC. way past my bedtime. But glad I watched. I had entertained the idea of laundry, quick trip to Publix, or spending more time culling some things in one of my walk-in closets...but I think rather than moving thru the day in a slo-mo fog, I will actually have a nap, and wake up rearing to go! So, that's my excuse...and I'm gonna really do it.

Howdy all y'all. It's soggy Saturday! We had some really loud, scary thundershowers last night right around suppertime. I had already baked my pizza but J was working late, and right after I started the other pizza, the lights flickered, and then, a minute or two later went out. They were only out for a minute, which didn't really affect the pizza in the toaster oven at all, but the cats and I were quite disturbed by the nearby lightning and instant, very loud thunder.
It's foggy and soggy out there now. I stepped out to check for any visible storm damage from last night's storm, but saw none. Luckily, I did not notice any significant wind, just a lot of rain and the light and noise show.
Not raining at the moment, but this afternoon and evening may be a repeat of last night.

Oh Ed,
We got the wind part! Boy oh boy. I sometimes stand in the garage and watch the storms and smell the rain, etc. The wind came from south west..(never a good thing) and my big maple trees were doing the dance of the tortured, to the point I decided I need to be in the house and my inside bathroom. Rain!!! OMG! Did it ever. and it went on for nearly 40 minutes. Both animals here were totally freaked out!! Poor Maya was huddled in the bathroon, and Tom E. took refuge under a gate legged table I have...I somehow doubt it was as much a sturdy safe place as he thought it was!!! Oh, well, didn't see any downed limbs, etc. for which I was grateful!!
Outside smells almost musky or mildew-ish this morning. Some drying needs to happen!
Glad you were able to get you dinner baked! Didn't lose power here, and didn't notice any flickering.. but, I do have a gas stove, and I always have candles to burn!
Today the cleaning has begun. I'm waiting for the floors to dry so we can put the rugs back, and then I'll run the sweeper.
Ted's been feeding the birds, and today I saw a Rufus Sided Towhee...I haven't seen one of those for years! So I googled the song and will listen for it when I'm outside.
Have a great day.0 -
Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous Sunday! Another cooler day is progressing, with some chance of afternoon showers. I may do laundry today.

Good Morning Ed,
I've watched Emmy try to make zuchinii into pineapple, (fail), and grandma made several things that look good, one that I learned about a new veggie, etc. She seems to be showing a lot of junk type foods...(very processed foods, like my beloved Oreo's) etc.. Are you jonesing for a carb blow out? or has she been 'gifted'? by the food companies?
Meanwhile, in the back yard... it will be cooler today, and overcast or cloudy all day which is ok too. Ted just announced at trip to Whole Foods...so I volunteered to go along. I have just about 4 things that need to come from 'somewhere'.
That may be my day! I threatened to sleep til noon, but 7:30 was the best I could do.
Are you sure you want to mess up a perfectly good day with Laundry? I mean all the sorting, and moving wet clothes, and having to fold dry items...not to mention PUTTING THEM AWAY??
Why not wait til Monday...thats Wash day anyhow. (just ask any embroidered dish towel your great aunt Maude ever painstakingly made for you) LOL!!

Just because I STARTED the laundry on Sunday doesn't mean I will FINISH it on Sunday. Or even on Monday...

Howdy all y'all. It's marvelous Monday! Rain today will help keep it cooler. I just didn't feel like cooking last night so we ordered pizza, as that was all that sounded good to me. So...guess what I had for breakfast, and will be having for lunch today too?
And the laundry, while it IS clean, is still in the dryer. LOL.

Granny is making some more packaged foods, enhanced of course with additional stuff, as all such food should be. I suspect a lot of what she makes is donated. I know the people always seem glad to get whatever she makes, and it's nice that sometimes it is snacky stuff or even dessert, especially for the kids.

Hi Ed!
Congrats...your laundry is clean and dry. That means you only have two more 'steps' to finish!! LOL! Wait, HUH? I haven't even started mine yet...oh, lazy meeee!
Today I have a mid-afternoon Dr. appointment. That 6 month one which is ok, Probably just a routine to get my scripts and I suspect an EKG. For some reason Medicare will not cover and EKG if its done on as part of my Annual Exam appointment! I know, crazy right? Also, I need to get a script for my tetanus shot. I got the rest of it, medicare covered, but for some idiot reason I have to go to the pharmacy for the tetanus part?????
So, laundry and Little Doc...and light rain for the day. I need to also be thinking ahead so I have some idea what dinner might look like! Lunch is still good, I made up a can of chickpeas..turned them into faux tuna salad! Yes, I did! Really doesn't taste much like tuna salad, but has the same sorta consistency, and is a good sandwich spread whatever it really is!
It has smashed chickpeas, pickle relish, green onion, mustard, Vegenaise, black salt (there's the tuna taste-ish element) finely chopped celery, and some black pepper. I have also discovered, after making this several times, that trying to smash canned chickpeas is NO FUN. So I dumped the lot into my blender, and used the 'ON' toggle to act like a food processor. That makes quick work of it, and does a much better job than I had been doing by hand. (I've tried using forks, potato masher, and a bean masher...all too much work, and not enough results!)
Ok, so there's this old lady's recipe of the week! LOL!!!
Time to start my laundry... and hit the shower. If I'm really good, and don't dawdle, I might be able to squeeze in a quick nap!!

Howdy all y'all. It's terrific Tuesday! It's considerably cooler today, with 90% chance of rain. The high is expected to be only 77. That is expected to creep back up through Thursday and then begin falling a bit and then lurking in the mid to upper 80s for a while.
I got my laundry folded and put away yesterday.

Good Morning Ed,
Good on you! You've finished what I am just beginning to do. Load one, in the washer!!
I made the mistake this morning of wandering onto the internet... now I have to play catch up all day. Raining here now, (again today) So I guess we can say 100% chance of rain!
I'm not sure I'll get to trying to make stovetop vegan corn bread today, but soon. I love cornbread and soups and stews and chilies, and it will be time for those things soon.
Now for the bad news...Little Doc was not very happy with me yesterday. Didn't like my labs, didn't like the EKG (back to the cardo doc), but after telling her how isolated the machine I use at the gym, she gave me a thumbs up for going to the gym....she stands alone with me on that. Wonder if she's trying to kill me off???? LOL!!!!
So, its time to turn on ALL of the lights in this house, which usually boosts my achievement mode, and hopefully I get some stuff done today! Besides being at the Doc's office, I 'ahem' started my weight loss battle by buying even more fruits and fresh vegetables from the grocery.. And I hope I have happy news when I see her next time.
Hope you have a great day, and a long and restful nap!!

Howdy all y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday! Damp and sticky out there now, but the lawn guys came anyway and did their thing. J has a doctor's appointment this morning, and I may have to drive if it looks to chancy for taking the motorcycle. J's car battery is flat and we haven't done anything about that yet, though we will need to soon.

Good Morning Ed,
Damp indeed! And that first step outside from the house it smells 'musty' probably from all the pine straw or other mulches, ground covers, etc. Could use a break from the rain today!
So happy, got my laundry thru all the 'motions' including putting the folded, or hung on hangers yesterday! And this is just laundry for me...think about our mothers and all us kids, and the mountain of laundry they had to do.....gives me headaches to think about!
Watched the Soya Chunks that Granny cooked from a couple days ago on my way here this morning...I wonder if that is a 'version' of the 'soya curls' that the veggie folks rave about? I've not tried them, in fact I've never seen them in any of my grocery places. I tried TPN (?) the dried chunks of ??? and for awhile they tasted good to me. But as I learned to cook and think of ways to be vegan they lost their appeal.
Hope you have a good day. And that the weather holds for Jason.
I may make a gym run early afternoon. Missing 'my' cardio machine. And its weigh training day, which I do at home, but I can put that off most of the day!! Also on my list is to watch the video with the bitter melon. They just don't look good, and the name doesn't make me want to run out to our local international grocery and buy one either. BUT...ya never know, they might be really good! So, first off, will find out what granny does with them, and then if the kids eat them!

So, you scrape the spines off, cut them open and remove seeds, then stuff them with the veggie/spices mix. looked like the kids were scooping the stuffing out with their flat bread, but I didn't see any of them actually eating the Bitter Melon Gourd? Will have do look at a couple more recipe's. I see those once in awhile when shopping, but never bought any. The name "BITTER' was enough deterrent! LOL!
Have you ever eaten these? And what can you tell me about that???
Nearly time for lunch...

I was just planning to make chicken and noodles tonight, with maybe some peas and carrots thrown in. Easy peasy and a favorite dish.
But Eduardo had other ideas. The chicken turned into chicken tetrazzini instead, with no peas or carrots, but lots of extra mushrooms and a creamy homemade sauce!
Leftovers for at least 3 more meals too.

Howdy all y'all. It's thrilling Thursday! It's sticky out there, but not too hot as yet. It will be hot enough later today though. I need to get out for eggs and milk, at the least, and try to find some paper towels.

And...$145.85 later, I'm back home from my one stop at Ingle's. I kind of wanted to stop on the way home to get some stuff at Lidl, like the eggs, but decided to limit my exposure, sucked it up, and paid quite a bit more for eggs at Ingle's, along with everything else.
Then I spent way too much time pondering what the heck the "N/O HEALTHLI" was on my receipt, at $3.67, and finally realized it was the Nature's Own Healthy Life double fiber, low carb whole wheat bread. Sometimes the abbreviations on the receipts can totally boggle the mind. And didn't our own Georgia Jimmy Carter promise we would never pay $1 for a loaf of bread? Technically, I guess he was right as $3.67 is not $1.
I can make a Lidl run another time. I needed to get home to get my 2 hour after breakfast blood glucose reading anyway. It was fine so I gave myself a Zone Perfect fudge graham bar as a reward for getting the shopping done.

Quick Good Morning,
I've spent too much time trying to run thru all the emails that had built up since yesterday evening....over 30 of them! (in 11 hours...) Time to start unsubscribing I think!!
Heading for the shower, and then to Pick up some packaged slaw mix, and something else,,,just not remembering what. Hopefully it will come to me while I'm at the gym.
I'm still not 'over it' with the CDC. I'm sure this probably is not the first time there has been some political wrangling...but this not testing for covid after a known exposure??? And the CDC admitted that 'it came from the top', meaning POTUS..
I did do some reading on the CDC about comorbidities. I was mostly interested as how Covid goes with T1D. And indeed, just like type 2, it is an issue. I figured it would be, but had not actually seen it mentioned.
The Hurricane (Laura) made quite a mess of things from what I saw on the news this morning. Glad my friend Marietta left the island and is weathering it out at her brother's home. I hope the sea wall held back whatever surge they had on Galveston Island. They bought a 'fixer upper' and had everything pretty much done before they arrived in TX. So I'd hate for them to have to repair/replace any of their home now. (just a year ago this August).
Want to have some 'real' fun with those grocery receipts? Go shopping in a Mexican grocery. I will say I've learned a few new words in Spanish trying to figure out what I'd just paid for.

Howdy all y'all. It's fantastic Friday! It's a bit warmer this morning, but still supposed to remain below 90 today, with a good chance of evening storms. I don't think I need to go anywhere today, so unless something comes up, I won't! I have one more serving of my chicken tetrazzini left, and that will be lunch today.

Good Morning Ed,
Yesterday I earned my 'August Apple Watch' challenge, so that's off my plate til September!
I am planning a trip to Kroger for their Sparkling Water, and then on to Publix for a couple things they carry that Kroger doesn't sell... and after that and watching the noon news I foresee a nice nap! So as you can see, I will be quite busy today....LOL!!!
Yesterday I noticed 2 or 3 little clumps of Maya hair where she sleeps...so I got out the stick vacuum, and OMG...I filled the canister, once, twice, yep and a third time by the time I swept Maya's room and the place she prefers to sleep at night in my living room. I mean seriously, the Dyson stick vacuum doesn't have an overly large canister, but good grief. I'm not at all sure why the heavy shedding now. In the spring I get it, but winter's coming baby...you NEED all your hair!
And on top of that I spent about half hour earlier this week combing out the loose hair while still ON the dog. I was just amazed is all.
Will have to check in with Granny later today..big pan of 'maybe lentil soup'? and a pan of what looks like orange softballs?? batter up??? I do hope she made lentil soup. I dearly love it using any lentil I have...but the orange lentil soup I used to get when we all lived in ATL, and ate at a place on Ponce. Best lentil soup ever!!! And then they closed.. Since it was a Mediterranean restaurant owned and operated by some really nice Mediterranean guys who could COOK!!!
Ok, I gotta stop thinking about food.

Howdy all y'all. It's sultry Saturday! Warm out there and expected to get warmer, of course. But it is not so damp today and it looks like it will be a nice day. I might do some laundry.

Good Morning Ed
Still trying to wake up, and I'd better get a hustle on it, nearly 9 a.m. and my 'cleaning partner' is up awake and lively.....ughhhh.
I think this may be a catch up day for watching video's. Not only here, but also ones I've saved from fb.
If I may ask..who is your phone carrier? Verizon is mine, and they just stepped on my last nerve. Not saying I'll actually switch, but certainly entertaining the idea.
And then there is the bank. Only the problem is me. About 10 days ago something, and I don't remember what, triggered me to change my pass word. And all of a sudden yesterday evening I couldn't remember 'Exactly' what it is. I have the bulk of it, but something is off...no entry. SO, guess I'll talk to the bank sometime today. I'd feel badly about forgetting, but I see for those of us who need password help, there is a special phone number!!! So, I suspect I do not stand alone here!!
I think for a bit of 'outdoor' activity today I'd like to pull a few weeds, and most definitely get rid of the 'mushrooms' that have decided to populate my back yard. Guessing the spores came along with the pine straw that Ted used this spring. I have no idea 'what' mushroom they are, so I'm putting a request out to the universe, that next time please send Morel spore!! I LOVE those mushrooms. Or maybe I also happen to remember my Mom's morels. They were ever so tasty. I know she soaked them in a salty water bath, and they had a coating of some sort, lite batter type, and then the old iron skillet came out, and some butter and the mushrooms were fried!!! Oh, good heavens...bliss!!
Ok, after that, I do need to get a move on! I'm sure any second now the 'cleaning shall commence! And when done I'll be so happy!!! LOL!

Good Morning Ed,
Yep, the A/C is gonna get a workout today! I guess August has decided to make an impression on us before he falls headlong into September. (not that I expect the first 2 weeks of September to be much different than our last couple of weeks. (isn't that cheery?..)
Not much on my list today. I need to get a few things 'cooked' so I can spend a couple days just coasting along with reheating in the microwave. I do have one 'Good Eats' brand veg. burger that needs to be heated and eaten (it was tempting to say 'heated and eated' but I almost got over the urge. )
ANNND I want to watch Granny cook... curious what some of this is...what she's going to do to cook all those big heads of cabbage! I really like cabbage...so I hope to learn a new trick or something. and then there are the potatoes and that huge big pan of ??? and the last video of some kind of bread, maybe? Still thinking about the skillet cornbread. If I can get that to 'work' as a vegan cornbread I'll probably gain another 5 pounds. I love most anything corn, and cornbread is 'right up there near the top'!
So, there's my day....but there is a hockey game tonite. At 8 I think. Watched an afternoon game with Ted yesterday..Boston played Toronto and my Bruins got beaten. Not a good thing in the playoffs. So, either Philly steps up their game, or I'll be 'team-less' for the play finals!
Ok, off to see what Granny can do with cabbage..

Howdy all y'all. It's marvelous Monday!
Just a teensy bit cooler today, but very sticky out. We had a lot of noise from the thunder last night and some very heavy rain for a bit.
I need to fold and put away the laundry from yesterday.

Good Morning Ed,
its 10 a.m. Monday morning, and here I sit still in my night gown, my only accomplishment being feeding the cat and making a cup of coffee.
I've been computer reading, and I have a lead on local beekeeper and a beekeepers club. Unlike all the rest of the 'Vegans' you may know, I DO sometimes use honey.
So that info is now part of a document, and can be put away.
Ted's left for work, and I have a long list of things I'd like to get done today. Some will end up being in part tomorrow's list as well no doubt.
Tomorrow is when I find out what the September Challenge is for my Apple Watch....I'm curious and a bit anxious too!
Yeah, last night was loud, and very wet. And Ted and i were trying to watch a hockey game. Over the air tends to break up and pixolate during storms, so for awhile it was um, interesting!
I will do laundry later this week, glad yours is almost done...Folding and putting away is about as 'exciting' as unloading the dishwasher!! LOL!
Later...
Oh, I did watch a bunch of granny video's. It was painful just to think about chopping all those heads of cabbage, one at a time, with a fairly small knife, that appeared to need sharpening. Granny gets extra heaven points for doing all that work for the kids at the orphanage. I'm guessing that is her day long 'job' in her household.
