Howdy y'all. It's fabulous Friday! Still haven't heard back from the bank regarding that one, single, "replacement" card with the wrong name on it or why we only go the one, instead of four.
I guess I'll have to take that card around to the bank after work today and find out what's going on. And let them know that this is REALLY ANNOYING and will NOT happen again...at least with this bank, because if it does, then we're through. Changing banks is a pain too but I've done it before.
Off to the salt races!

Good Friday Morning!
Hope everyone survived St Paddy's Day! Today a bit cooler, more like normal temps. This has been the warmest week in the 19 years I've been coming here. Yesterday ended up being near 90 degrees....in MID MARCH no less!
Ed your Corned Beef hash dinner sounded good. No doubt it was a bit high on the fat and sodium side! But, its just once a year:) right?
Hope Roger is having a good walk. I've checked in on you all more often than posted, and Roger had a 'high dollar' walk this week...$0.21 as I recall. Hope today is as profitable. I found a dime this week! LOL!!
Lazy day planned, and packing up, dinner out. and then home Saturday morning. It will be nice to be home, but I'll already be planning and thinking about next year! I do love this island.

Hi
I walked to the next town for a haircut 12.4K steps round-trip. Just my luck, the Barber was closed for a vacation So I ended up at a nearby diner and had two eggs, a fruit cup, and a a little Dry Rye toast with coffee before heading back.
The weather so far is good today, warming up nicely. I only needed one layer to keep warm and medium warmth gloves.
Have a Great Friday
Rogerparityanimal wrote: »Almost bedtime here! My dinner was a home made corned beef hash (low carb!) of corned beef, cabbage, bell pepper and onion. Quite tasty, but I'm pretty sure I rocked out on the fat and sodium. Enough leftovers for a couple more meals and then I'm done with the corned beef.
As for lamb, I have several packages of boneless loin steak/chops in the freezer along with my ground lamb. I find it often enough on the mark down rack that I usually have lamb in the freezer if I feel like having it, which is nice as I love lamb. If there's not enough shank meat left for Irish stew after Easter dinner, I can always thaw out some chops and round it out with that.
The ground lamb generally goes to shepherd's pie or middle eastern spiced lamb patties, in lieu of shish kabob, as the patties are easier to cook and don't require wrapping the meat around a skewer.
Once in a great while I'll make a Greek style lamb spaghetti sauce, but I don't make spaghetti often as I tend to eat too much of it in one sitting.
Well, the cats are jonesing for their evening treats.
G'nite all!

That is the same reason I do not cook up any spaghetti these days.parityanimal wrote: »Howdy y'all. It's fabulous Friday! Still haven't heard back from the bank regarding that one, single, "replacement" card with the wrong name on it or why we only go the one, instead of four.

They do make it harder to open an account these days than in the past. Now I believe it is Federal Regulation that make it tough.
Good Luck getting the bank straightened out

Hi Valerie
I think I survived the day. I had a 200 calorie portion of the corned beef with the fat trimmed off, with 2 slices of 7 grain bread 70 calories worth as a sandwich and a Nectarine. That works out as a equivalent NS lunch entree + a PF & SCs. Keeping me on plan as I see it. The scale said I was the same weight as yesterday so that's good too.
My Goal for the month is to maintain my weight and decide in April if I want to lose anymore weight. I am currently between the lower weight that I see on the internet as my goal weight and the Doctor saying I'm good where I am as somewhat higher and I did lose some more after that visit.
It Sounds as if You were experiencing a heat wave
Have a Good Day

Well, the bank blamed Visa and said that after all the name on the one card WAS the name I had when that account was opened. I didn't really buy that, since the last Visa card I got has my right name on it, but Jose said that they no longer processed them here locally but in Virginia since they wanted the new chipped cards.
Supposedly all 4 cards will now be re-issued to us, with correct names on them, for each of our individual accounts and one each for the joint account. In seven to ten days, we'll find out!
Turns out the bank dude got married in January. I didn't suggest that I hoped his wife kept her name because changing it is SUCH A *kitten*!
LOL!

Tonight's dinner was mega-salad. The last of the red leaf lettuce, the last bell pepper, the last cucumber, about half the radishes, one nice tomato, some fake bacon sprinkles, a few crispy fried wontons, a light sprinkle of cheese, and two quartered boiled eggs per salad, topped with my homemade thousand islands dressing.
J and I both had a LARGE salad that was quite satisfying.

Hi
I walked a total of 9471 steps so far today. That includes My regular walk, The Produce store for myself and my brother. I picked up 4 Apples, some Bananas, Lettuce @ 89Cents and Two 1 pound containers of Strawberries at a decent price of 2 for $1 and other items for my brother. His total came to $10 even, I could not do that again if I were trying to. Then over to the Dollar Store for a Quart of UHT Milk for $1 and two Brown & Serve Breakfast entrees for $1 each. They are a decent calorie count at 340 calories and 350 calories, Sausage links, Potatoes, Eggs and French Toast or Pancakes considering they will be replacing a NS Entree, a PF & a SC in one plate, I did not worry about the Sodium which is a little high at 800+mg They will only be a Sunday Morning treat/change of taste.
Then on to the Acme for a few Lean Cuisine Entrees at $1.88 or $2.29. The ones I bought will mostly work as a lunch at 180 to 200 calories and 8 ounces plus.
Have a Great Sunday

I suspect that it may be time for Your next box of produce.
I guess I may be strange as I would just have used real bacon bits, either store bought or home made from a low sodium bacon crisped in the oven.
Good Luck with the Visa. Chipped cards!
Have a Nice Day

Howdy y'all. It's sensational Saturday!
My produce box came yesterday, with a big head of Romaine, lots of other veggies and fruits.
I am a bit overloaded on some things because J and I were so busy last week. In the salad, we didn't use real bacon bits because J won't eat that.
I've been eating a lot of mineola tangelos because the prior week they sent me double on those (no extra charge, someone just put them in the box twice I guess...) and there are other citrus put back in the fridge that we need to catch up on. Also quite a few root veggies that need to be sorted out and roasted for a good dinner some night or two or three...
They sent three LARGE onions yesterday so there will be onions in the roasting too! Plenty of them!
We have a party to attend tonight so I need to start getting things together for that. Making a cheesy noodle casserole to bring along. They don't get all my nice organic veggies.

Good Sunday morning!
Home! Cats were wild!!! And ate like little piggies. They must have missed having breakfast for the week, or else they only ate bits of the wet food put out for them, and then the raccoons polished off the rest. I can tell by the paper plates they were fed on that the raccoons were here. Just not sure how much they were left to eat!
Good to be home, but I loved the week at the beach. It was the warmest/driest in the 18 years that I've been going to Hilton Head. Really nice. Lots of great food, restaurants have become much, much more compliant to vegan/vegetarian eating.
Sun is just now peeping thru my 'forest',( the time change). Had to change all the clocks last night. Got them all except the chiming one, and I pulled its dying battery before I left. So, tonite at 5-ish I will put in the new battery, and not have the hassle of resetting it.
New grass seed has sprouted in my yard, and no rain in sight, so I'll be watering! Oh well...I also need to be outside pruning the heck out of a bunch of stuff anyhow!
Hope everyone has a great day.
Roger, read your post about walking to the next town for a haircut....no I didn't laugh. Might want to call next time though.
Later...
OH!! This may be old news to Ed..but I had the most amazing dinner Friday night...the vegan selection was:
Braised Romain Lettuce,
Rice,
Wood (hickory) Fire Grilled Portabello Mushroom cap, filled with onion squash, peppers, and the whole thing drizzled with a Balsamic Glaze. It was SOOOO GOOD! I need a wood burning grill!!! LOL!!! (I can't grill to save myself, but DH1 sure can.)

Howdy y'all. It's scintillating Sunday! A bit chilly out, but not too bad. I need to get laundry done today. And Val reminded me that I need to get some pruning done out there too! The daffodils are looking great out there, and the grape hyacinths have come up and are blooming. This is their first year so next year I expect more of them, as they tend to spread and cavort all over the place once established.
Right now I need to make some tea.

Hi
The weather is OK so far, The wind was adding enough chill that I pulled on the hood from the hoodie and tied it around my face which made the walk OK and 7.7K Steps. I forgot to mention that I found one whole cent yesterday, Whee, I'm getting rich
Snow is still in the forecast for later on into early Monday
Local prices are strange, Cheap Strawberries & Bananas, Local Supermarket has Chicken Leg Quarters for $0.39 a pound. Cheapest meat available right now when even Ground Beef is around $3 a pound. last two weeks they had whole chickens for $0.99 a pound.
I tried the Brown & Serve Pancake breakfast, I made a mistake in Yesterdays description, neither one has eggs
So I had two sausage links, 2 pancakes and some Potato Bites. 340 calories, 9g protein, 39g carbs and 820mg sodium. Tasty if a bit high on carbs & sodium. A nice change for a Sunday Morning Breakfast.
Have a Good Day

Hi Ed
The Citrus and root vegetables should keep well in the refrigerator so that is a plus
I had forgotten that You can serve no meat, OOPS!
Onions I do not care foe fresh, OTOH I love them in I Onion Rings or nicely Caramelized, go figure.GardenKatGardens wrote: »Good Sunday morning!

Hi Valerie
If I said it never occurred to me to call and check? Not a big problem as I do walk anyway, so I sat down in the diner a couple of doors down and had a light breakfast and rest before walking back.
We have a Battery powered clock that chimes too. It has the weirdest sounding chime when the battery needs replacing
It sounds as if You had a great vacation
You can get a small countertop Electric Grill that might give much the same effect as long as You can put it by the stoves vent to get rid of the smoke.
Have a Nice Day

That has been my experience with the grape hyacinths that they spread all over too.
We finally have Grape Hyacinths and Daffodils and I have seen some Hyacinths in bloom while walking. It seems to depend on whether they are in a Southern or Northern exposure if they are blooming yet. What We call a Tulip tree around here are in bloom too.
That has been my experience with the grape hyacinths that they spread all over too.

Hi,
Yes, I did have a great vacation!
Your tulip tree (its what we called them in MO too) is a deciduous magnolia! They now come in a variety of pink-ish and purple-ish colors. I my day they were all purple with some white.
I had two grape hyacinths pop up in my yard...dug them up! They do spread something terrible here. Regular hyacinths don't do that, so thats what I have, or have had..don't think I've seen mine this year. Need to look, as my tulips bloomed while I was gone, and because it was so warm, they are already way past prime!
Hope you don't have to mess with snow again Roger. Is supposed to be 36 here tonite and tomorrow nite. Guess the cats will be inside It may snow an inch or less in the mountains, but dry here...no snow! YEA!!
Ok, off to whole foods...there is a very noticeable lack of FRESH food here! Hope to see some fried tofu. If not, I'll be pressing tofu this afternoon.

Hi Valerie
FWIW I went out walking again at 5PM, now at 16.4K steps. I went back out as insurance against not being able to get out tomorrow, I saw some snow flakes around 5:27 to 5:35 and then they were gone. I suspect they are a forerunner of the snow forecast for later on. As long as I do not have to go shovel tomorrow I am OK with a little snow. I hope my snow also does not stick and disappears quickly too
I Think the ones I see are all the Pink ones, Decent size too. .
I do not mind the Grape Hyacinths spreading, I liked them when they spread into the lawn, Sort of a naturalized look TBH.
I wonder Why there could be a dearth of fresh food in Your house
Have a Good Evening

Howdy y'all. It's marvelous Monday! Currently 38 degrees out there but might drop a couple more before it goes up to 58 later today.
J headed off to Kentucky last night as one of his uncles was dying (and did, in fact, die, during the night) so he'll be coming back probably Friday night.
In last minute grabbing of clothes he accidentally seems to have taken a pair of my work slack in lieu of his dress slacks, but they won't fit him. He'll have to make a run to Wallyworld to buy some I guess.
I'll get by down here.
Off to the rat mines! Hope the rats don't try to get in to keep warm.

Hi
I was out the door before 8 as the forecast of snow was more or less a non starter in my area. There was a little on the parked cars in the driveways and street and in the grass of the lawns. The sidewalks and street were a little wet but that was it. It was 33 degrees outside but with no wind it was not a bad walk.
Have a Good Week

If the rats do get in, ignore them or get some nice rat eating snakes to clear them out

Hi Valerie
I can see signs of spring when I am walking now, flowering trees in bloom, Some Daffodils in bloom and some getting ready and so on. Pretty soon we can plant some pansy's for early color in the flower beds as they will take the cold.
Enjoy Your Breakfast and the day
Roger0 -
Good Morning!
Bright, bright sun this morning. Maybe will help warm Ed's 'shed' a bit.
I'm going groceries today...talked myself out of it yesterday. LOL!
Cats had their breakfast and are fast asleep. I suspect they'll stay 'indoor' cats today!
Need to make a gym run as well as groceries. Brought back Salt Water Taffy pieces for the kids at the gym. Its been an annual thing for 9 years now. They'd think that "grandma' (yes they called me that) was angry with them or something! LOL!! They really are 'kids' still.
Eating my breakfast of oatmeal, nuts/seeds/ and fruit, and then its hit the shower, and I'm off.
Roger hope you are not shoveling snow. Good move getting your steps yesterday evening!
Later...
Ok, Roger posted while I was making breakfast! Glad your snow was a 'non' event, and that you are seeing spring happen. The nice thing about walking...you really do get to SEE the seasons change.
Rat eating snakes! OMG! How about he just walk to the store and buys a little rat food?...brand I'm familiar with is D-Con. It works!0 -

Hi Valerie
FWIW the rat eating Pet snake was tongue in cheek
I plan to go to the local Quick Chek for a can of Not Gourmet Lite Whipped cream to put a drizzle on all those NS Pound cakes, chocolate cakes, Chocolate Brownies and Carrot cakes I found where I had left them out of the way for a while. They are just past the Use by date and taste OK. I figure since I am working at maintenance as a test this month 20 or 30 extra calories for my evening dessert should be OK. As well as keeping in mind that the NS Snacks/Desserts run up to 200 calories for the highest one and these cakes are around 150 calories.
Good Luck Shopping
Roger0 -
Hey Roger, I knew you were kidding about the snake! I was being equally as tongue in cheek!
Had a good visit at the gym, rode that danged bike, which does seem to be helping my knees, as opposed to the TM, my fav cardio piece...oh well.
Shopping was confined to the Mex. market next door. Picked up the essentials for a lunch salad and tonite's dinner. So tomorrow will be another short trip this time to Kroger. We found Wymans Wild Blueberries in the freezer while on vacation...checking to see if they're carrying them here as well. They are small, very sweet, organic, blueberries. I used to get that brand at Costco, and they've switched...
See you in the morning.0 -

36 degrees out there right now but supposed to get up to 70 this afternoon.

Hi
7.6K steps so far for the day. It was 31 degrees this morning, hard to believe it is supposed to be 60 as a high. The Sun is shining and there was nearly no breeze so it was a nice walk.
Nothing much planned for later on today. Currently as I type this I am converting some Phonograph records into Digital format on the computer and plan to see what ones I want to do next. Also I can capture some videos into the other computer at the same time Currently capturing is a Petula Clark record, Maybe I will dig out the Old Time Radio Show records I bought years ago and capture them next to listen to when I walk, Or maybe the Glenn Miller Albums. Hard to decide, It may come down to what I dig out of the basement first.
Have a Good Day

Hi Valerie
I was being tongue, OTOH in my Younger days I did have friends that had pet snakes that they fed mice to.
That was handy finding that the bike is easier on the knees, I would have thought otherwise as I thought that the knees were designed to work in a upright position.
Good Luck finding the Blueberries. I have some frozen ones and some dried left over from My Brothers Christmas baking that I have been adding into my Cereal when I have that.
CostCo does tend to do that with fruits, I think it is tied to price and availability.
Good Luck on Your search

Good Tuesday Morning..currently @ 49 degrees and climbing!
Gym, Kroger, and Olivia's gymnastics tonite...that's my focus points today!
The bike puts less stress on the knees, and the 'push' knee is straight at the bottom of the arc, if you've adjusted the seat right...the other resting knee is the one bending, and is stress free. Works the muscles around the knee to strengthen them... That said....I still hate the bike. Always felt like I was making some progress on the TM...oh well, so much for thinking!!!
Gave the new grass a good watering yesterday evening, so it should be care free today!
Cat (Tom E.) wants something....not sure what. Wish he could talk! .... they have food and water. I've spent time petting and talking to the rascal..what now???
I'd vote for Glenn Miller for walking!
Later...0 -
Roger I forgot to mention that what I wrote is about the 'recumbent' bike...not the upright one. I thought about this while at the gym today, and was watching someone on an upright!
Just an FYI afterthought!

Well, everyone has been fed, even D. J is out of town for an uncle's funeral. I made pork Marsala for dinner, but really pork Chardonnay since that was the wine I used. Got it a little bit too salty, but still tasted good.
Going to bed now.

Good Wednesday Morning!
Updates for the phone and iPad ✓
Cats fed, ✓
This morning got off to a quick start! Time to drink my coffee and get my breakfast together!

Ed, I am looking forward to this wonderful afternoon.! Think my afternoon chat with DS1 will be while I walk the neighborhood! Used to do that all the time...now I need to restart that habit.

Hi
I stopped at the Post office to mail a letter on my walk + 1 cent. When I was Younger there were Mail boxes all over the place, No more.
The weather was nice and tomorrow promises to be somewhat better too. I think I'll go get my haircut tomorrow, That is the date the note on the door said he would be back from vacation.
Enjoy The Day

Gym, Kroger, and Olivia's gymnastics tonite...that's my focus points today!
The bike puts less stress on the knees, and the 'push' knee is straight at the bottom of the arc, if you've adjusted the seat right...the other resting knee is the one bending, and is stress free. Works the muscles around the knee to strengthen them... That said....I still hate the bike. Always felt like I was making some progress on the TM...oh well, so much for thinking!!!
Gave the new grass a good watering yesterday evening, so it should be care free today!
Cat (Tom E.) wants something....not sure what. Wish he could talk! .... they have food and water. I've spent time petting and talking to the rascal..what now???
I'd vote for Glenn Miller for walking!

Just an FYI afterthought!
Hi Valerie
That makes more sense that You meant a recumbent bike. I bought one last year and that is what I chose as my research showed it to be better for me.
I was digging around in the basement, It looks like I need to move some things to get to all the records as I did not find my Old Time Radio Show Records and I know that the Shadow ones was a fairly large Box Set so it should be easy to find.GardenKatGardens wrote: »Good Wednesday Morning!

I did some updates to my computer too. Mainly the Windows Security updates, A new updated version of Malwarebytes Anti Malware and Of Course Norton updates. I had already updated some of the applications I use as well as FireFox.
Have a Great Day

Howdy y'all. It was a GREAT tag day. There were no tags! Couldn't ask for a better tag day. LOL!
Almost Easter and then I can get those silly Cadbury eggs and Reese's eggs out of the fuel kiosk and back in the store for them to sell at half price. They never sell well there but the district wants 100% participation so we always put them in the window during the season. If we could set a basket of them out on the ledge, like other stores, we might sell more, but John's Creek won't allow much outdoor vending as it looks trashy. We have our one Coke cooler and one small ice freezer out there and that's all we can have outside.
Well, off to the salt races!
