So this is a Cyber Cafe What'll be?

Hi, Zzyyggy. We had a beautiful day here in the Charlotte area. Our humidity was a bit higher than yours was today, but it was still lower than it’s been for a while. We don’t have any smoke from the fires, yet. Sweetie made a delicious dinner with chicken, rice, and vegetables. We decided to have dessert at the cybercafe. Sweetie ordered a big brownie with vanilla ice cream and that wonderful fudge sauce Francois makes. I decided on the chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich (or two—they’re not the monster cookies) and coffee.

And M&M’s. Can’t forget the M&M’s.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, again it was hazy, hot and humid today with a lot of smoke from the wild fires. We need a nice gusty wind storm to blow it out of here. Didn't do much of anything all day. For dinner tonight I'm going to go for some macaroni and cheese, fish sticks, corn on the cob, and a coca cola. For dessert I'll have some of those monster cookies with chocolate chips and m&ms and an iced mocha. I'll enjoy it out on the terrace with some nice clean fresh tropical air.

LindaK125

Mm, these monster chocolate chip cookies are the best, Zzyyggy. Here’s Viktor with a refill on our drinks—iced tea for me and iced mocha for you. We actually had another really nice day, but this weekend it’s supposed to be hot and sticky. Next week it’s going to be in the low to mid 80’s without rain. Hopefully, Sweetie will finally get the deck stained. Every time he’s gotten everything set up we get rain or remnants from hurricanes Beryl and Debby.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, We had another hazy, hot and humid day. It's nice and breezy right now, and I actually see blue sky. I'm tired tonight. For dinner tonight I'm going to have a bacon, cheeseburger with onion rings, and a root beer this time around. For dessert I'll have some more of the monster chocolate chip cookies, and an iced mocha. I'll eat it out on the terrace.

LindaK125

Nice out here on the terrace tonight, Zzyyggy. Viktor promised to bring me a cup of tea and a piece of cinnamon toast and then I’m heading off to bed. I promised myself I go to bed between 10:00 and 10:30 tonight so I better get going soon.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, it was another hazy, hot and humid day today. Very over casted all day, but so far no rain. Temp is 78 degrees. Got in a walk this afternoon, and got most of my other goals done. For dinner tonight I'm going to have the barbecued chicken with potato salad, coleslaw, dinner rolls, and a coca cola. Francois has decided to cook outdoors today. I think the kitchen might be getting too hot for him. For dessert he's made some frosted chocolate cupcakes. I'll have some of those with an iced mocha.

LindaK125

Zzyyggy, we had the same kind of weather, except it went up to 88 degrees. My weather app kept alerting me about rain and severe thunderstorms, but the storms went around us. It might rain Monday and then it will cool off for the rest of the week. Yeah!

Francois’ picnic dinner was delicious. It was so good I’m not hungry right now, but I asked Viktor to bring me a small pot of tea. I think I’ll sit out here on the terrace with my tea and enjoy the end of the day.

Zzyyggy

It deffinitely cooled off around here. The high today was 69 degrees and we had rain all day. Didn't get a chance to get out for a walk yet, but the night is still young. Got the rest of my goals done though, and two loads of laundry. For dinner tonight I'm going to have the meatloaf platter with mashed potatoes, gravy and peas with a coca cola. For dessert I'll have some apple pie and an iced mocha. I'll enjoy it out on the sunny terrace. What does the sun actually look like, I've only seen glimpses of it the last couple of days in the real world.

LindaK125

Wow, Zzyyggy, your weather was 20 degrees cooler than ours today. We had a mostly sunny day, with a little bit of rain around 7:00 pm. Tomorrow’s forecast looks really nice. Francois’ meatloaf makes a delicious sandwich, which I ordered with potato chips and a Dr. Pepper. 😋. A piece of apple pie with vanilla ice cream for dessert out here on the terrace sounds great.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, it was down right cold around here today with a high temp of 58 degrees and a cold north wind blowing. I got a trip to the Shelburne Museum in, and a swim. I'm starving. I'm going to have the diner platter of fried chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy, peas, and biscuits. A coca cola with that please. For dessert I'll have a slice of apple pie with vanilla ice cream and an iced mocha. I'll eat out on the terrace tonight in the nice warm sunshine.

LindaK125

Sounds like you had a good day, Zzyyggy, and I wouldn’t mind a high temperature of 58 degrees. It was a really nice day here with much lower humidity and the temperature around 80 degrees here. I haven’t been spending much time outside lately.

I think I’ll order the apple pie, too. I love apple pie. I used to make apple pie for my dad. Sometimes I’d add cranberries or pecans with caramel sauce. Yum. 😋.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, we had another rainy, wet and blah day. Got in a short walk, and got the rest of my goals done. Spent the afternoon playing Bingo. For dinner tonight I'm going to have the lasagna with garlic bread and a salad. A coca cola with that please. For dessert I'll have some apple pie with vanilla ice cream and an iced mocha.

LindaK125

Zzyyggy, we had an amazing day! It was sunny, the temperature stayed in the 70’s, the dew point was in the 50’s, and the humidity was around 50%. For comparison, last weekend the temperature was around 90 degrees, the dew point was 74 degrees, and the humidity was over 70%. The hot, humid weather will be back by Sunday, for the last week of August. It looks like Sweetie might finally get the deck stained this week (fingers crossed 🤞).

Dinner was delicious. I love when Francois makes lasagna for dinner. And here’s Viktor with my cup of coffee and some chocolate almond biscotti.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, we had another cool day with some sunshine, but mostly cloudy. Haven't done much of anything all day. I haven't been feeling well, and been sleeping a lot. I hope it's just a cold not covid. I haven't tested myself yet. For dinner tonight I'm going to have a big bowl of chicken soup, with bread and butter, and a coca cola. For dessert I'm going to have some of that s'mores brownies Betty had on the web sight. Francois saw it too, and decided to make a batch. I'll have mine with an iced mocha and eat out on the terrace where there is plenty of sunlight.

LindaK125

Hi, Zzyyggy. Sorry you’re feeling sick. Hope you feel better soon. Me, I’m healing up nicely from my hysterectomy. The cancer is gone, so I don’t have to worry about that anymore. We had another beautiful day—not at all like our usual summer weather.

Those s’mores brownies sure look good. I’m going to order a s’mores brownie and a cup of coffee for dessert. I love sitting out here on the terrace. The weather is always nice and there are no flies or mosquitoes, although I do see some lightning bugs here and there.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, I'm glad your healing nicely. That's a hard surgery to go through. I'm still under the weather. I tested myself earlier and it's not covid so far. I'll test again tomorrow to make sure. My next outing isn't until Sunday and I'm meeting some friends at McDonald's for breakfast. I'll make sure it's not Covid before I go. It was a perfect summer day out there and I might get outside for a bit this evening. For dinner tonight I'm going to have a big bowl of seafood chowder with lots of bread and butter for dipping, and a coca cola. For dessert I'll have some peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, and an iced mocha. I'll eat out on the terrace tonight. Theres a nice breeze blowing, and we might just get to see the northern lights tonight.

LindaK125

Zzyyggy, you are not allowed to have Covid! See, don’t you feel better already? Well, I hope you do. Hopefully, you’ll feel better by Sunday. It seems like colds can last for weeks sometimes.

Viktor, I’ll have an old fashioned chili burger on a brioche bun with cheese fries and Dr. Pepper, please. For dessert I’d like a birthday cupcake to celebrate my Mom’s 95th birthday. Her birthday isn’t until next weekend, but I’m starting the celebration early. We’re all getting together on a zoom call next week.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, thanks, I'm actually feeling better today. Got outside and read for a bit. It's a perfect summer day here in the real world. Didn't get a whole lot done. For dinner I would love a porter house steak grilled, baked potato, and a salad with a coca cola. For dessert I'll have some chocolate chip cookies, and an iced mocha.

LindaK125

Zzyyggy, I’m glad you’re feeling better. I’ll join you for dessert out on the terrace. I’ll check the ice cream freezer in the gazebo and see if Viktor stocked it with double caramel Magnum Bars.

We had another real pretty day at home today, but the heat and humidity will be back by Monday. Sweetie managed to stain the deck, although he decided not to use the really bright pink/orange stain. Of course, he did stain the one board and after being covered with two coats of a transparent stain it doesn’t look too bad.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, I'm going to have the Sunday roast chicken with stuffing, mashed potatoes, squash, lots of gravy, and dinner rolls with butter. I'll have a coca cola with that as well. For dessert I'll have a slice of apple pie with vanilla ice cream and an iced mocha. We had a perfect summer day here in the real world. No humidity. Got out for a walk, and some grocery shopping. Had to didn't have anything in the house.

LindaK125

Zzyyggy, the cybercafe’s Sunday roast chicken dinner was delicious. I opted for pumpkin pie and coffee for dessert. That’s nice weather you’re having and you sound like you’re feeling much better. 👍🏻

Ah, the Club Room is nice and quiet tonight. I think I’m going to spend the rest of the evening right here reading my book.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, we had another perfect summer day today. Spent most of the afternoon outside. Went for a long walk on the waterfront, and did some reading. I love my kindle for that. Temp was in the high 70s with no humidity. I also had a creamy which was very good. For dinner tonight I'm going to have the prime rib dinner with baked potato, carrots, and a coca cola. For dessert I'll have some klondike bars and an iced mocha. I'll eat out on the terrace again tonight.

LindaK125

Zzyyggy that does sounds like the perfect day up to and including dinner at the cybercafe. Dinner was delicious. I’ve got my iced coffee, my bucket of M&M’s, and my book, so it’s shaping up to be a perfect evening. Sweetie is just finishing up the banisters on the deck and then he’ll be done staining the deck. He didn’t use the odd colored stain, except on the one board. I wonder if he’s going to take that stain back to the store.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, A little hotter and more humid today but not bad yet. Got in a swim, and a walk. Got the rest of my goals done as well. For dinner tonight I'm going for the diner fried chicken platter with mashed potatoes, gravy, dinner rolls, and peas with a coca cola. For dessert I'll have a slice of blueberry pie with vanilla ice cream and an iced mocha. I'll eat out on the terrace tonight.

LindaK125

Sounds like you had a good day Zzyyggy. I opted for the diner roast chicken platter with carrots and green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy, and rolls. In the real world Sweetie made hamburgers with homemade hamburger buns. They were really delicious. Francois asked Jorge to pick some peaches in the cybercafe’s orchard so he can make peach custard pie. It’s one of my favorite fruit pies and it’s so easy to make.

It’s so nice out here on the terrace this evening. Mm, pie with ice cream and iced coffee or tea for dessert. Perfect.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, it started out cloudy, rainy and blah this morning, but the sun came out in the afternoon. Temp is 78 degrees. Got in a walk in the afternoon and got most of my other goals done. For dinner tonight I'm going to have Lasagna with garlic butter, a salad, and a coca cola. For dessert I'll have some brownies, and an iced mocha. I never quite developed the taste for peaches. My mother always said I was crazy, which is probably true, but peaches and pomagrants were never my favorite fruit. The rest of the family liked them.

LindaK125

Zzyyggy, I’m not a fan of peaches unless they are freshly picked and peeled, however, peach custard pie is a sweet, buttery treat takes peaches (even canned peaches) to a whole other level. I like nectarines and everyone says they taste like peaches without the fuzzy skin. Do they? They taste like nectarines to me. I’ve tasted pomegranate before, but I don’t remember what it tasted like. Apparently, I wasn’t too impressed. It’s pears I dislike. Most pears have a grainy texture that doesn’t appeal to me, however, it’s the fact that the taste is reminiscent of vomit that turns me off. My daughter-in-law and I were discussing our mutual dislike of pears and she laughed and asked if I was her real mother.

Francois made me my own mini pizza (ha, I wish) and I just finished my coffee and monster chocolate chip cookie Viktor brought out here to the terrace for me. I think I’ll have another cup of coffee while I watch the sun set.

Zzyyggy

Hi Linda, we had another perfect Summer day here in the real world. Just got back from the Shelburne Museum walk, and did a swim before that. I'm starving. For dinner tonight I'm going to have a roast beef sandwich with the works, a bag of chips and a coca cola. For dessert I'll have one of those monster cookies, and an iced mocha. AAAAh make that two of those monster cookies. I'll eat out on the terrace tonight.

LindaK125

Hi, Zzyyggy. It’s hot and humid in the Charlotte area today. Fortunately, the weather is perfect out here on the terrace at the cybercafe. Francois made chocolate mousse tarts with raspberry whipped cream. I’m definitely having that for dessert with an iced mocha.
