Roger, every one of the pix this morning are great! As for as the millennials survey...these folks are too young. They haven't been 'buffeted' about by life just yet... a quarter of them are voting for the giant meteor?...how sad their lives must be.
$0.03 is better than the one cent find last week!?!!! by spring you should have enough change to buy a banana!
Ok, heading for the kitchen
Later...

Hi Again,
Roger, thanks for the directions to get to the mail on MFP. I have to figure out how to save that! For now, I have made the space a "favorite" on my laptop (Safari browser). As long as I still have my computer, I am good! You also mentioned an electric (battery operated) hand warmer. What a great idea? Where did you get it? I may consider that.
Val, Roger is right about the LL Bean forever guarantee. That being said, one of their employees made a great point when I considered returning a coat. The coat no longer fit - I had lost nearly 30 pounds. I was looking for a new coat and considered if I should take it back to LL Bean. When the employee and I discussed it, she asked me to think about whether the coat didn't live up to my expectations of their products, or was there another reason I was returning it. The reality was that the coat did very well...for many years. I just finally shed the extra weight, which I could not (in good conscience) put as LL Bean's responsibility. And so I ended up with a new, full price coat. Also...thanks for your email address. I will enter it into my email address book.
Ed, I was thinking about the Batman marathon. Will you be including the big screen movie in your marathon? I am talking about an Adam West version...not the new stuff. Same actors/characters as the TV show. I remember seeing it when I was younger. Very...campy! I wonder if Netflix, Amazon, or some other online site has it. You may find it pretty fun to add to your marathon.
Okay folks...time to get myself ready to head back to the office tomorrow. I leave by about 4:50 AM, so I won't get on until later. I can only di this at work if I can locate the forum in a MFP search on that computer.
Take care all,
Lee-Ann
Hi Lee-Ann
No Problem with the help.
I bought the Hand Warmers from Amazon
I believe You made the right decision with the coat. Their warranty says Our guarantee is a handshake – a promise that we’ll be fair to each other I would say that both of You were fair so...
I make things I want to be able to get back to a favorite too. Maybe this will help?
Launch the Safari Web browser on your Mac OS X system. Navigate to the first page to which you want to create a shortcut. Select the entire address in the address bar at the top of the browser. Click and drag the address onto the Mac OS X desktop and release the mouse button.
Have a Nice Day

So Eduardo had most of the week off, as I was anticipating Eddie the housekeeper doing a LOT of work at least one day, though some of that did stretch into the next day.
Finished off the pork and beans at lunch today, so there is no prepared food ready to plate and warm up. I mentioned possibly pizza tonight, earlier, and am heavily leaning in that direction. That way, assuming J actually comes home tonight, there will be something there if he wants anything to eat, and if he doesn't eat it all, then cold pizza is great for breakfast.
Not cross-eyed yet from Batman and still a lot of it to go. Of course when doing other things I do take breaks.
Hi Ed
Frequently I have been know to leave the TV showing something in the background while I do other things and just keep an ear on it
Hmm... You would think so, however I did not see an assortment either. With no assortment to sample haw are You supposed to know what flavor You want. It might be time to contact Lenny & Larry's with some feedback suggesting they create a Sample pack with all the flavors of Muffins. OTOH they might not feel the need to do that as their recall notice said they had to outsource some of the production due to not being able to keep up with demand and the outsource quality slipped.parityanimal wrote: »Howdy y'all. It's marvelous Monday!
Breakfast this morning was the Lenny & Larry's peanut butter cookie. As peanut butter cookies go, it was OK. I'll give the peanut butter cookie a THUMBS UP. So far all the cookies tried have been THUMBS UP. Peanut butter cookies aren't my favorite kind of cookie anyway, but this one was as good as most peanut butter cookies are, so it is a winner.
The nearest GNC store did not have any muffins at all, only the triple chocolate brownie, and maybe 4 flavors of cookie, all of which I already either tried or have lined up to try, from the direct order I made from Lenny and Larry's. Shipping is outrageous so I won't likely be ordering muffins from them again as 1) They don't make a mixed box, so I'd have to try a dozen of each kind, freezing most of them as I slowly go through the box and 2) Shipping is more than the price of a single box of muffins! At leas it was with the order of muffins, brownies, and cookies that I made. Now having said that, the pumpkin muffins that I ordered ARE really good, and I don't regret the one time purchase, but it will take me a while to get through a dozen of them. They do freeze well, with no apparent loss of quality on thawing, but I haven't tested how LONG they can be frozen, and don't really want to test that at this time, so will be eating them periodically for a while to use them up. I'd love to try the other muffins, and will be looking at Kroger and a larger GNC when I can get to one. Surely SOMEONE sells individual muffins and I wouldn't HAVE to order them from Lenny & Larry's...
J made it home last night, late. I remember hearing the house alarm react and then be shut down before actually going off, but didn't wake up enough to see what time it was, just rolled over and went back to sleep. I see though, in the refrigerator, that we'll be having the leftover pizza for lunch, if he's home for lunch, as he didn't eat any of it.
Ariel had to hurl a hairball during the night in a place that I'd cleaned up so nicely over the weekend, so I get to re-clean that area a bit sooner than planned, but that's a cat for you.
Other than that, not anything critical today, and I may just go back to bed for a nap in a minute.
And yes, the Batman movie is planned for the end of the marathon, as I have it on DVD too. But the end is far away yet, as I have about a dozen episodes left in season 2, and all of season 3 yet to go!

Well, it's been an interesting day. Finally ended up taking the Macbook Pro in for repair, where it was determined that repair would cost nearly or more than the value of the computer, so instead I opted to have the hard drive moved to a slightly newer, refurbished iMac with a 21.5 inch display, that is much easier to read! I hadn't actually moved the MacBook off the desk in months anyway so it's not much of a sacrifice to give up the mobility. I can take my mini Dell when I need mobility, as I've been doing lately anyway. So I ended up with a newer, better computer for a lot less than buying a new MacBook Pro would have cost. They stopped making the 17 inch screen on the MacBook Pro anyway! That annoys me.
The tiny screen on the Dell mini is a little annoying too, and the tiny keyboard, but it suffices or when I need a portable for most things so all is good!
Need to see what the dinner options are, as I think it's going to be a "wander and wonder" night. Wander in the kitchen and wonder what my hands will make...

Good Morning!
VOTE, if you haven't already.
Giggle of the day?...I decided to have a cup of 'real' coffee (full caffeine) and I can't type as fast as my brain synapses are firing! LOL! This should be an interesting day!
I'll be back later when my brain calms down! Right now I need to throw myself onto my exercise mat and get today's plank done...one minute and 20 seconds...oh boy! Should be interesting. (my abs are so sore!) LOL! The things I get myself into.

Howdy y'all. It's terrific Tuesday!
The Lenny & Larry's oatmeal raisin cookie is a THUMBS UP.
Dinner last night turned out to be a chili dog and some tea. J had to go out to get a scrip. I thought he was out of it and he apparently forgot to take it last night as the unopened bag is still on the kitchen counter. He may be annoyed this morning and probably have a headache...but maybe there was one left in the old bottle, I didn't shake it last night to see.
Need to shower and walk up the street to vote. Then after voting for any of the candidates, come home and cry.
Later all!

Hi
It was showing 38 degrees this morning the same as yesterday for the same time, I walked today for 9,161 steps and no cents. I missed changing the time on the clocks in the Basement Again ") , those are the ones in the work area and the Wall clock & Digital Clock in the room with that computer
Today despite starting out cold is predicted to be in the high 60s, Yea!
I went by the polling location on my morning walk on the way to get my coffee and voted this election day. They seemed busy too.
Have a Great Tuesday

Did they give You the hard drive that was in the refurbished computer after moving the other drive to it? I find it interesting that the Drive would just plug in and work with no problems. In the Windows World moving the OS to different hardware can either not work, or work with all new drivers being needed and/or require the windows to be activated too.
Hmm... A Chili Dog sounds tasty.parityanimal wrote: »Howdy y'all. It's terrific Tuesday!

Hi Valerie
That was my plan yesterday to go Vote on the way to get my coffee, Success doing it today.
Tomorrow I plan to do a somewhat shorter than usual walk and then go back out later to the bank to cash a check and then on to the local Dollar Store for another Quart of Milk and the Grocery Store for Fruits and whatever else I decide needs picking up.
Why not do a Half and half coffee next time? I have a premixed container that is setup for that.
As for the plank challenge, better You than me, I have had some trouble getting back up from the floor for years It is much easier with the weight gone than it used to be however, thankfully.
Have a nice day

Yes, I got the hard drive that was in the iMac too. It's in a bubble wrap envelope with the user ID and password of the installed system written on it in case I want to use it in anything "as is" but J will probably re-format it anyway and use it for some other purpose.
Mac OS is generally pretty good about re-configuring itself if you put the disk in another Mac machine. I did have to re-setup a couple of internet access accounts that didn't recognize the new machine, as, while it IS the same disk, the machine as a whole (and the mac address in particular) are not the same, and those two accounts had two factor authentication set up, so I had to enable the new machine for them. And I had to re-set up the email access for our own email server at home, since the Mac key ring somehow got the certificate jumbled up and I had to remove it and re-enable that certificate. Nothing major in the move, just a few minor snags.
So far I'm quite pleased with the new machine.
Voting is done, and I'm SOOOOOOO tired of this election.0 -
Hi Ed
I'm glad to hear that it went smoothly overall, Congratulations on the new setup.
IMO the bigger the screen the better these days, especially as I get older. I upgraded around Christmas from a 32" HDTV as the Desktop Computers screen to a 42" Higher Resolution HDTV for the display. I do sit across the room from it so the larger screen is nice. Especially the better resolution. I would have loved to go even larger, sadly no room for larger. Oh well ...
I seem to recall that You do full system backups too?
Just curious, is it a 3.5" drive or a 2.5" laptop style? I periodically upgrade my System drive from a SSD to a larger SSD as the prices drop for the improvement in speed. The Capacities are getting pretty large, however once You go past 1Tb the price takes a huge jump
I join what seems to be the major sentiment in the people on the forums, So tired of the current elections and I wanted it to be over too.
Have a Nice Day

Good Morning Folks,
No comments on the outcome, except to say...the bookies must be paying serious money. I wish I had placed a bet! And no more political TV ads for awhile...yeah!
Rumor has it that today will be a cold one out there. Looks like I will be bundling up.
Forgot to mention...I have a weekend camping trip with the ladies (a group I meet up with occasionally). I have not had the truck camper out since the summer, so I am really excited! But I need to plan the food now, since I have to go to work early. Plus - we do a couple of put lucks, so I have to bring things to share.
Ed, good luck with the computer thing. I know we have come to rely on them, and I use several for work...but I miss pen and paper!
Roger, I am thinking I will look into electric hand warmers. I'll keep you posted.
Val - my memory is malfunctioning! I had something to say to you...but it flashed out. When it comes back I will send the message.
Take care all,
Lee-Ann1 -
Howdy y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday! High predicted of only 68 with 0% chance of rain. The laundress (Edie?) did laundry yesterday, and the housekeeper needs to do some grocery shopping today. The cook made vegetarian spicy nachos for dinner last night and that may be repeated for lunch today as there is still half the guacamole left. One of the avocados had felt a bit too soft, from the outside, but they were both PERFECT and the spicy home made guacamole turned out really well.
Eddie the housekeeper does need to buy more salsa as part of the groceries today, so if we're to have the nachos for lunch, the grocery shopping needs to be done this morning, before lunch.
Eduardo, the cook, forgot to put any beans on to soak last night so if he wants to make vegetarian chili for dinner, he either needs to do a "quick soak" on some beans or tell Eddie to buy some canned beans. He'll decide in a few minutes I guess.
Well, got to get to it!

Hi
It was showing 52 degrees this morning warmer than yesterday for the same time, I walked today for 8,954 steps +26 cents. I have still missed changing the time on the clocks in the Basement, those are the ones in the work area and the Wall clock & Digital Clock in the room with that computer
I did stop for some Fruit today on my walk, Bananas were 29 cents a pound and the Gala & Fuji Apples were $1.29 a pound FWIW. I had a couple of stray rain drops land on me, So far the forecast rain has not arrived however.
I took along my New Yeti 30 ounce insulated cup for my Coffee refill. Best Cup yet for holding the heat. heavy however as it is All Stainless steel except for the lid that is sealed with a Heavy O-Ring and nice and thick too.
http://yeti.com/rambler-30/?gclid=COvX48rim9ACFUhYDQodocYFCQ
List price is $39.99, It was bought at the Efinger Sporting Goods closing and liquidation sale at a decent discount.Days on the dock are made better with the Rambler™ 30 oz. Tumbler. It’ll keep your dinnertime drink cool well past sundown or your coffee nice and hot throughout the morning. The Rambler 30 oz. Tumbler is made of 18/8 kitchen-grade stainless steel, has double-wall vacuum insulation, and No Sweat™ Design. Which means that you’ve got one heavy-duty, over-engineered stainless steel tumbler on your hands with the Rambler. It’s dishwasher safe, BPA-free, and ready for just about anything.

Hi Lee-Ann
I will say that after using The Yeti for one day, Today, I went on Amazon and ordered a handle for it that should be here Friday. The cup weighs just over 1 pound empty.
I would never bet on a election, However I am a cautious person that way.
The other option to the Electric hand warmers are ones that You boil to make them ready for use again. They might conform to Your hand in the Mittens better. The Electric ones such as I bought are somewhat bulky. OTOH it can be used as a energy pack to recharge things that get charged through a USB port.
Have a Nice Day

If I said I'm not surprised that it had a full size disk drive, they are less expensive and typically 7200 RPM drives vs most laptop 2.5" drives that are 5400 RPM to enhance battery life. The faster RPM should and usually does reduce latency somewhat.
My All-In-One desktop that I am using today came with a full size drive too. That is despite that in many respects the Motherboard is a Laptop style. I had to get a adapter to use the SSD I converted too, unfortunately I could not use it when it came due to the drive connections not lining up so I have that drive wedged in for the last year plus
I would have expected that the Bracket from Apple would line up properly however.
Have a nice day

Eduardo did put some mixed up beans and lentils on "quick soak" for the chili, so while it was on the standing time, Eddie went out to the grocery. When Eddie got back, Eduardo rinsed the beans and lentils, and got them started in the large Crockpot with some chopped onion, garlic, ground hot red chili pepper, jalapeños, bell peppers, salt, cumin, and black pepper. After all that cooks for 8 hours or so on low, the lentils should have pretty much disintegrated, to add a nice thickness to the chili without needing any other thickener. This has worked well in the past when making vegetarian chili. Tomato will be added at the end, and if needed, any additional water, and adjust seasoning if needed. I think there is plenty of the hot stuff already though.
Now Eddie just needs to clear the sink, and then it will be approaching time for Eduardo to prepare lunch of mostly leftover nacho stuff, just heating a fresh can of refried beans.
Maybe a short nap in between...

Hi All,
Roger - not to worry. I am not a betting lady...so I guess the bookies will just have to do without my money.
After reading Ed's/Eduardo's/Eddie's dinner plans, I thought I would mention my latest offbeat - but really very good tasting - dinner. Perhaps it would make a better lunch for some, since it is pretty light. I have 2 1/2 ounces cooked brown rice heated with a cut up tomato in the microwave. I also added a wedge of Laughing Cow light Swiss cheese. I put 2 fried eggs on top (fried in non-fat spray) of the rice and tomatoes. A light, delicious breakfast-dinner.0 -

Hi Lee-Ann
I had some low calorie cooking spray that I have used in the past, I used it so infrequently since I rarely fry however that It started tasting stale and was discarded while still pretty full. SO now I just use a dab of Extra Virgin Olive Oil instead when I do fry. TBH The fried eggs do sound good, I may Scramble one for my mid morning snack and put in in a 60 calorie wrap with a 1/2 slice of Velveeta which is 20 calories.
Since I am a lazy cook what ever rice I use is either cooked in a rice cooker or instant rice AKA generic Minute Rice
Have a Nice Day
Roger
Hi Ed
I'm not quite sure what a quick soak is, does that mean some heat was used?
Cheers
Roger
Hi Valerie0 -
Howdy y'all. It's thrilling Thursday!
High predicted of 70 today with zero percent chance of rain.
The quick soak for beans entails bringing the sorted, rinsed beans to a boil in plenty of water (at least two or three inches of water over the level of the beans), letting them boil for 10 minutes, then covering and letting stand for an hour. At this point, rinse, and use as you would have used beans soaked overnight.
The chili, by the way, came out very nicely! Leftover chili will be a nice lunch today.
I was up about 7 this morning, but have been distracted by various recipes on the net. This one sounds easy and tasty, and I might instruct Eduardo to give it (or a slight variation on it) a try.

Hi! Its still Thursday, but in the afternoon!
Morning was some quick chores, a real cup of coffee and time on the internet...followed by dressing in yard gear, and ??? yep, blowing more leaves. Tomorrow would have been the 3rd day, but I won't be here tomorrow...so...
I'm about half done, stopped for lunch, and will work around a 2 p. seminar, then another spot of time, shower, and leave for O's gymnastics.
And people wonder what I do all day....yikes!
The instant refried beans mix sounds interesting. I may have to give that a try. A little concerned about one of the reviews...lady tried the beans in her blender, then again in her coffee mill, and finally a friend brought over an attachment for her Mixer before it was powdered....so, we'll let Eduardo try it first...OK?
Lee-Ann, your lunch sounds good! Isn't it amazing how food can be combined very simply and taste amazing?
Roger, when you use the rice cooker, do you make a big batch for use, and to freeze? That's generally what I do, but I've also been known to buy the handy microwave packs from Seeds of Change...pricy, but good, and Organic.
I don't foresee the election grumbling being over either until he's sworn, or most likely not until he's at the end of his first 100 days...and then I think you'll see him torn to shreds. I don't believe the people are going to let up. I listened this morning to a guy talking for over half an hour, and (he seems 'level headed', and has his brain in order)....he outlined what needs to be done. Reminding people to grieve etc, and to them make a plan over the next 70 days that Obama is still our president. What he said made a lot of sense. I can share his url with you if you'd like.
Salad nearly finished...and then its half hour out with the blower...and least the hour long seminar will be a nice 'rest' before going back out to finish my job.

Did I mention that the Lenny & Larry's white chocolate macadamia cookie is a THUMBS UP?
0 -
Good Morning,
Ed, I have been reading your mentions of Lenny and Larry's cookies so much I will have to check them out. I think I came back in the middle of a discussion, but it sounded like something ordered over the internet. I think I have to taste them!
Val - I finally remembered what I meant to say the other day (hey, it only took me 3 days to remember. Not bad!). I only get up at 4:35 (yes, that is the time I set on the alarm clock) on days when I have to go to the farther away office. Other days are more reasonable. I have it down to a science: breakfast and lunch made the night before and put in the refrigerator; clothes set out; work bag either pt into the truck, or set out. Remote start on the truck takes just a few minutes to defrost the windows. Up, washed, dressed, put together and out the door in about 12 minutes. And I hate those mornings...
Roger, good morning to you. It looks like this weekend will be chilly, but not yet frigidly cold up here.
Time to keep moving here. I have to pack up for my weekend camping trip, then load the camper onto the truck. I will catch up with you...eventually. Not sure of the internet service over the weekend. Take care everyone.

I Am still getting a few Raspberries off of the one plant. I suspect that will end tonight as we are supposed to get a Hard Freeze. If I'm right, a shame as it has a bunch of unripened berries on it
