So this is a Cyber Cafe What'll be?

Zzyyggy

Cinnamon buns and coffee sound good. Happy New Year Linda. Welcome to 2023. Last night was fun watching the fireworks here. I heard Burlington's fireworks at 12:00. They were a little late. For dinner tonight I'm going to have the porter house steak dinner with baked potato, salad, and lots of butter. For dessert I'll have some apple pie and an iced mocha. I'm ready for a good year how about you?

LindaK125

I’ll toast to a good year. I’ve got my apple pie spice latte (perfect with apple pie) and you’ve got your iced mocha—perfect for toasting. I ordered vanilla ice cream with my apple pie.

Looks like Igor, Viktor, and Jorge have put away all the decorations. I wish Sweetie would bring the boxes downstairs so our decorations could be put away. I’ll have to remember to ask him to bring the boxes down. I’m sure hearts and flowers will be decorating the cybercafe soon.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, Yup no more holidays until Valentines day. No it's time to get back into routines and fun. For dinner tonight I'm going to have the meatloaf platter with mashed potatoes, gravy and green beans. A coca cola with that please. For dessert I think I'll have some klondike bars and an iced mocha. I really need to have the real thing soon, but it doesn't look like it for awhile. My Mondays are all booked for the next month, and the rest of the week I have swimming and grocery shopping. Maybe I'll get the bottles at the store on Wednesday.

LindaK125

Meatloaf! Viktor, I’d like a meatloaf sandwich and a Dr. Pepper, and a piece of lemon meringue pie for dessert, please. Zzyyggy, you’ve reminded me to check my shopping list. The holidays bring so much food into the house, I can’t remember what we’ve got in the freezer and whether we have enough vegetables in the fridge. A couple of weeks ago I asked Sweetie to buy a butternut squash or an acorn squash. He bought both. i haven’t decided how I want to fix them. I need Francois! Wouldn’t it be nice to have a chef come and cook for you?

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, Yes, that is my ultimate dream. Someone to cook just like mom use to, and clean up as well. I think I would eat a whole lot healthier as well. Oh well. In lieu of that we do have already chopped veggies, prepared meals, and restaurants, and the cyber cafe of course. For dinner tonight I would like the fried chicken platter with mashed potatoes, gravy, and peas. A coca cola with all that. For dessert I think I'll have some chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream and an iced mocha. I think I'll have dinner on the terrace tonight and watched the sunset.

LindaK125

Zzyyggy, nice night for Sunset Dessert. I had chili tonight for dinner. Ice cream for dessert works for me. I considered an ice cream sundae or ice cream lasagna, but I think I’ll have a double caramel Magnum Bar. Viktor keeps some in the ice cream freezer out here on the terrace.

Sweetie says he can hear an owl in the hedgerow out back. Last night Sweetie came racing down the stairs and grabbed his jacket while explaining that something hit the roof and he was headed outside to check the roof. I’m thinking it’s too dark to see anything and it might just be an owl. Maybe it got one of our many squirrels. I hope so. This one squirrel makes me crazy. He climbs right up the brick on the siding, up to the roof and chews on the soffit and facia boards. I wouldn’t mind if the owl ate that one.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, what was on your roof? Squirrels can be pests but they are fun to watch. I'm starving tonight. I think I'll have some lasagna and with garlic bread and a coca cola. For dessert I'll have some klondike bars and an iced mocha. I'm also ordering sunshine for the cafe since we won't get any until at least Sunday here in the real world. So I'll have to settle for virtual sunshine. I'll take my dinner out on the terrace tonight.

LindaK125

Zzyyggy, we don’t know for certain what was on the roof last night. We can’t see any damage. In the last 24 hours we’ve had over two inches of rain. Maybe when it dries out enough to walk around the house we might see something. I’m pretty sure it was an owl. Tomorrow will be sunny and 65 degrees around here so we’ll be able to check things out more thoroughly.

Francois made the most delicious lasagna tonight. I think I’ll have another piece of garlic bread and a cup of coffee for dessert. Sure is nice out here on the terrace this evening. Igor and Jorge have the fire pits going to ward of the chill and the soft guitar music in the background is very relaxing.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, I'm starving again tonight. The lasagna was really good last night, but Francois has gone Chineese tonight with a Chineese buffet set up. I'll have some of the fried pork rice, General T'so's chicken, there are egg rolls, wonton soup, and those noodles. I'll have a little of everything with a coca cola. For dessert how about some vanilla ice cream, Fortune cookies, and an iced mocha. Dinner's outside on the terrace again with lots of sunshine. All we saw was rain again today.

LindaK125

Dinner was delicious tonight, Zzyyggy. I haven’t had an egg roll in a very long time. Francois made made my favorite Chinese almond cookies, too. It’s time for a pot of tea and cookies. First, a fortune cookie or two. It’s so nice out here on the terrace and the moon is looking very full tonight, after all the full moon is tomorrow.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, we had spotty sunshine today. Not a whole lot, but enough to get me excited a little bit. For dinner tonight I'm going to be a kid and do fish sticks with macaroni and cheese, and a coca cola. For dessert I'll have some brownies and an iced mocha. Another night out on the terrace.

LindaK125

Viktor, I’d like a bowl of vegetable soup and toast and a nice cup of chamomile fennel tea. An apple for dessert, please. My Gerd is acting up and even thinking about certain foods is unappealing. I might have to go to the cybercafe’s spa and get a massage. Ha, I’ve never had a massage, but it sounds nice as long as it’s gentle.

We had sunshine today, Zzyyggy, with more normal winter temperatures. We both seem to be in this weather pattern where the weather fluctuates between winter and spring. Not so unusual for the Charlotte area when I think about it.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, this is downright unusual weather for this area for this time of year. At least temp wise. Cloud wise it is pretty usual. For dinner tonight I'm going to be a kid again and have the salsbury steak dinner with mashed potatoes and gravy. Green beans and a coca cola with that please. For dessert I'll have an apple crisp with vanilla ice cream and an iced mocha.

LindaK125

Apple crisp with ice cream for me, too, Viktor. Just set a carafe of nice hot tea right here. I’m going to relax in my recliner by the fire in the Club Room. I got chilled this afternoon and haven’t been able to warm up yet.

Zzyyggy, I’ve been thinking it was Friday all day and had to remind myself it’s Saturday. Tomorrow morning I’ll have to be here for Sunday Brunch. Wouldn’t want to miss it.

LindaK125

Gee, hope everything is okay with you, Zzyyggy. I came in to order lasagna for dinner and Viktor will be bringing the garlic bread shortly. I was planning on having brunch here this morning, but I slept late and our grandson was here, so things got too busy.

I’m thinking a nice hot cafe mocha and some biscotti for dessert would be nice .

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, I think you missed Sunday brunch so didn't I. I almost missed the day too. For dinner tonight I think I'll go for the wood stove pizza and chicken wings. A coca cola with that please. For dessert I'll have a slice of apple pie, and an iced mocha.

LindaK125

Hmm, what to have for breakfast?I’ll just rummage through the cybercafe’s kitchen. Oh, cold leftover pizza, yes. Francois has been baking bread and pastries since 3:00 am and is on a short break. I’m sure he won’t mind if I have my breakfast in the kitchen. I’ll help chop vegetables and do other prep work after I’m finished eating.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, I'm pooped tonight. Did a long up hill walk this morning, and am feeling it in my bones. For dinner tonight I think I'll have the oven roasted chicken, mashed potatoes, and winter squash with lots of butter for both the potatoes and squash. A coca cola with all that. For dessert I'll have a slice of blueberry pie and vanilla ice cream with an iced mocha. Had the real thing this morning. Finally got over to my coffee shop after my long walk. I like theirs better then Starbucks although I love my Starbucks.

LindaK125

Viktor, I’ll have what she’s having, please. Iced mochas for both of us, if Zzyyggy manages to stay awake long enough to have another one.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda we did have sunshine today yeah. For dinner tonight I'm going to have a big ole cheeseburger with onion rings and a coca cola. For dessert I'll have a slice of devil's food cake with ice cream and an iced mocha. I haven't had a cheeseburger in ages.

LindaK125

Zzyyggy, I could have had a cheeseburger tonight (in the real world), Sweetie had one. I had the flounder and grilled veggies. Let’s not talk about the hush puppies. I figured I would have dessert at the cybercafe. Viktor will bring my coffee and an iced mocha for you. I ordered the toasted coconut custard pie tonight. I couldn’t resist Francois’ pie.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, I'm here for dinner. I've had a busy day. I finally got to the top of the list for Senior Housing. It's a one bedroom apartment with everything but internet and phone included. Had the intake meeting today and have the lease signing on Friday February 24. I move in on March 1. I just gave my 30 day notice to my present landlord so for the next month or so I'll be packing, and cleaning. Tonight I'm going to have the fried chicken platter with mashed potatoes and gravy. Green beans, and lots of butter with that. A coca cola with that please. For dessert I'll have some apple pie and a vanilla ice cream with an iced mocha. I'm excited.

LindaK125

Zzyyggy, that’s fantastic news! Yeah! Moving is a good time to clear stuff out.

Viktor, it’s a grilled cheese kind of night.in fact, I’ll have the grilled cheese with tomato soup, please. For dessert I’d like some vanilla cream cookies and a pot of tea.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, here for dinner tonight. Haven't done too much except set a move in date today. It'll be February 27. My sister is going to find the movers. For dinner tonight I'll have the meatloaf dinner with mashed potatoes, gravy, green beans and dinner rolls a coca cola please. For dessert I'll have a slice of blueberry pie and an iced mocha. I'll have dinner on the terrace.

LindaK125

Whew, excuse the wet umbrella and the wind following me in the door. We’re having a bit of weather in the real world tonight. Ah, Viktor, there you are. Thank you for taking my umbrella. Yes, dear, I’d like a glass of Southern Comfort, please. I’m sure I’ll be ordering coffee, as well, and some of the lemon shortbread biscuits. I’m heading out to the terrace.

Zzyyggy, you’re still here. Good. Beautiful night out on the terrace at the cybercafe. Perhaps if you spend 20 minutes a day for a week you’ll be able to see how far you’ll get with packing. February 27 will be here before you know it. I packed an entire house that way—taking it in little bits of time. I managed to get rid of a ton of things, too. Except I didn’t go through my embroidery boxes; all five of them. It was a mistake and terribly selfish of me. I haven’t stitched in years, but I can’t seem to face going through them.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, got a couple things done today. I'm starved tonight. For dinner tonight I'll have the fried scallops with french fries, lots of tarter sauce with a coca cola and corn on the cob and lots of butter. For dessert I'll have a slice of apple pie with vanilla ice cream and an iced mocha. Lots of drearyness today. I think I'll have the sunshine on the terrace again tonight.

LindaK125

Apple pie with vanilla ice cream sounds good. Viktor, I’d love a big piece of pie and ice cream and a couple of cups of coffee, please. Gee, Zzyyggy, the sun is really bright out here on the terrace this evening. It’s nice and warm, too. It feels wonderful.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, I'm ordering another day of warm sunshine for the cyber cafe. It's cold around here in the real world. For dinner tonight I'm going to have a bowl of french onion soup with lots of cheese and bread, and a coca cola. For dessert I'll have some klondike bars and an iced mocha. Aaah an evening on the terrace.

LindaK125

It’s cold in Charlotte, too, but we’re a lot warmer than Vermont! We’ll have more warm weather shortly. It’s nice and toasty at the cybercafe. I fell asleep earlier and slept for four hours. Now I’m awake. I didn’t expect to go to bed at 6:00 pm. I asked Viktor to bring me a cup of hot chocolate and a piece of pumpkin pie. I think I’ll relax in my recliner by the fire and read my book for awhile.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, I'm here for the Sunday dinner of roast beef, mashed potatos, and gravy. Peas, and dinner rolls with lots of butter with that please, and of course a coca cola. For dessert I'll have a slice of devil's food cake and an iced mocha. Spent the day packing up my closet. I have way too many reuseable bags my sister keeps giving me hers. I think I'll have to ask her not to, either that or they are reproducing on their own. Maybe that's what lost socks turn into?
