Hi ladies, I'm starving as usual for dinner tonight. Linda I use to go for a couple of laps around the fringes of our local supermarket Market32 during the Winter when the sidewalks were icky. I think that's what a lot of people do around here. I'm not sure why they don't have A. C. here it could be that Vermont only has really hot dreadful weather for a couple of months. Navycurls, I could never get into those Monster trucks, however those do have a fender to step on or some of them do. This car didn't have. For dinner tonight I'm going to have a big plate of lasagna with garlic bread and butter, and a coca cola. For dessert I'll have some brownies and an iced mocha. I think I'll enjoy it out on the terrace in the sunlight since we haven't seen it here in a couple of days.0

Zzyyggy, we walk around the big box stores in the summer here. The heat and humidity make it difficult to walk outside. NavyCurls, when we got a new bed in December I had to insist that Sweetie make it lower so I wouldn’t have to literally climb into bed. It was torture to get into the higher bed we used to have with a strained sartorious muscle. Of course I read your whole comment and got stuck on Cracker Barrel. Oh yeah, hash brown casserole. Now it’s becoming clear. I love hash brown casserole. In fact, I’m having that for dessert tonight. I’ll have to save the brownies for breakfast tomorrow morning. At our local barbecue place you can order cornbread with three sides and I always get the hash brown casserole, coleslaw, and green beans. Mind you, the green beans are cooked with shredded brisket and they are divine. Oh, and you absolutely have to have biscuits when you go to Cracker Barrel.
Zzyyggy, I think we’re ready for sunset now since it’s 10:30 at night. Time to turn out the lights for me. Sweet dreams.0 -
@LindaK125 What is weird is that we were so full after we ate at CB that we didn't have room for the biscuits. I should have had that first before anything else. Talk about carb heaven!!!
Viktor - CB hashbrown casserole, beignets, and tri-tip for lunch, please.0 -
Hi ladies. I don't think we have a Cracker Barrel in Vermont. At least not one in the Burlington area. I've never seen one in my travels on the main drags. I've heard of the restaurant before. For dinner tonight I'm going to have the fried chicken platter with mashed potatoes, gravy, beans and dinner rolls. A coca cole with that please. For dessert I'll have some peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, and an iced mocha. I think I'll take a seat on the terrace and watch the Ocean for awhile. I haven't been near an ocean in ages, although the lake is a big enough body of water for me.0
-
Viktor, I’ll have meatloaf and cheddar on biscuits, please. I’ll have a birch beer with that. The oceanfront terrace reminds me of summers on the boardwalk at the Jersey shore. All the vendors sold birch beer. 😋 of course, that means I should order an ice cream sandwich served on a Belgium waffle. These were also ubiquitous at the shore. Coffee ice cream and chocolate fudge sauce for me! Zzyyggy, Lake Champlain is huge!
@NavyCurls, I would undoubtedly eat the biscuits instead of the beignets. Hmm, although it would be nice to just order coffee and beignets at CB. And Zzyyggy, you’re going to have to go to New York or New Hampshire to visit a Cracker Barrel. We had one fairly close to where we used to live. I had a couple of elderly women I would take shopping once a week and they liked to stop at CB for lunch. However, my favorite shopping excursions with the ladies was in the opposite direction and I would go the back way and drive past all the farms. It was such a pretty drive and I loved driving past Earl’s farm and turning down Good Springs Road. I guess that was my happy place.1 -
Hi ladies, Linda I love riding down country roads like that. In Vermont there is plenty of that kind of driving once you get out of the city of Burlington. For dinner tonight I'm going to have the fried scallops with french fries and lots of tarter sauce a Coca cola with that please. For dessert I'm going to have some chocolate chip cookies and an iced mocha. I'll go for a swim before dinner so hold of on my order for a bit guys, and then enjoy the mountain view from the terrace this evening.0
-
Whew, that was some swim. You never can tell what you’ll see when snorkeling in the cyberpool. I’m definitely ready for dinner. I ordered the crabmeat stuffed flounder, a baked potato, and grilled vegetables. Here’s Viktor with our dinners and beverages. Mm, iced tea for me. Sunset Dessert tonight? I’ll have a scoop of chocolate chip mint ice cream with a couple of chocolate chip cookies.0
-
Hi Linda, I'm going for a swim in the cyber pool as well. For dinner tonight I'm going to have the bacon cheeseburger, onion rings and a coca cola. For dessert I'll have some devil's food cupcakes and an iced mocha. Hannafords our local supermarket had a package of two chocolate cup cakes with chocolate frosting on the display when I walked in this morning. They tempted me and I was there for chocolate. Instead I got a package of hershey kisses, and the other stuff I needed. It wasn't on my list so I didn't get it. The kisses were.0
-
Hi Zzyyggy. I woke up to tornado warning alerts this morning, 12 miles north of us. The storms stayed north of us all day, but I see you’ll be getting rain from this weather system. We had a nice cool and windy Saturday. Hey, it was 74 degrees and it felt chilly. I’ve become a hothouse flower.
Viktor I’ll have a pot of coffee and brownies iced with vanilla buttercream, please.0 -
Hi Linda, didn't wake up to tornadoes but did wake up to rain, lots of it all day. For dinner tonight I'm going to have the prime rib dinner with bake potato, salad and a coca cola. For dessert I'll have a chocolate creamy and an iced mocha. I think I'll go for a swim before dinner, and then enjoy a sunset dinner on the terrace.0
-
Francois outdid himself this morning at Sunday Brunch and I’m quite sure I had at least one bite of everything. URP! Oh, excuse me, I think I’ll ask Viktor for an alka-seltzer and then a cup of coffee. I’d go for a swim, too Zzyyggy, if I wasn’t afraid I’d sink.0
-
Hi Linda, we'd send you a life line. For dinner tonight I'm going to have a huge stack of blueberry pancakes with sausages, and lots of maple syrup and butter. A glass of whole milk with that please. Coca cola would be too much sugar. For dessert I'll have a cinnamon bun and an iced mocha. I missed out on my iced mocha this morning because Lowes called last night and said my A C would be delivered today between 8 am and 12 pm. I had to cancel my trip to Starbucks this morning. Oh well next week. Got the A C, now for the couch.0
-
Oh, blueberry pancakes for dinner sounds wonderful Zzyyggy. Pass the syrup and butter this way, please. Viktor will be by with my coffee and anything else we might need. Glad you got your ac, but sorry you missed out on your iced mocha!0
-
Hi Linda, here early for dinner. I'm going to have lasagna with garlic bread and a coca cola. For dessert tonight I'm going to have some peanut butter cookies, and an iced mocha. I may go for the mocha on Friday. Lets see how I feel by then.0
-
Iced mocha on Friday for me, too! Well, at least here at the cybercafe. Right now I’m having a cup of tea and some ginger cookies. Time for bed then because Sweetie is having cataract surgery in the morning.0
-
Viktor, I’m here earlier today! Time for dessert already. It’s been a long day. I’ll have a double iced mocha and a piece of german chocolate cake iced with vanilla buttercream, please. I’m heading out to the terrace.
Sweetie had his cataract surgery this morning. I wish they would make patients stay there for the entire day. It feels like I’ve been corralling a two year old all day. First he was a bit loopy from the anesthesia, but he decided we should go out to lunch. And, oh, should he drive? (Um, NO!) Then he’s ready for a nap. Whew. An hour later he’s up and ready to take a walk. It’s 55 degrees and raining this afternoon. He’s decided his vision is blurry and he should call the doctor. I explained that his eye was still dilated so that’s to be expected. Maybe I can have him read his post surgical instructions again?0 -
Hi Linda, glad the surgery went well, and no he shouldn't drive. Yes to reading the post surgical instructions again. He'll love his eye sight though once it clears up. Both my sisters have had it, and they say the difference is night and day. My brother is going to have his surgery in June and July, and my other brother has already had it. Guess it runs in the family. So far I'm fine, but my doctor is keeping an eye on it. For dinner tonight I'm going to have the fried chicken platter with mashed potatoes, green beans, lots of gravy and butter, and dinner rolls. A coca cola with all that. For dessert I'll have a couple of devil's food cupcakes with chocolate frosting, and an iced mocha. My couch is finally being delivered on Saturday. They called to confirm the time and day. It's a two hour window between 12:00 and 2:30. I can still go do my shopping on Saturday if I go early enough and lounge on the couch when it gets here.0

Ah, Viktor, I’m a bit early this morning. I was considering another piece of cake for breakfast, but I’ll have a ham and cheese omelet and a cinnamon chocolate chip bagel and coffee, please. Actually, I’m fasting because I have a wellness exam this morning with all those lovely blood tests. And Sweetie has his follow up visit this afternoon. I have to drive to my appointment this morning, even though Sweetie thinks he should drive, but no, not within 24 hours of surgery. Before yesterday I hadn’t driven for three years. I did just fine yesterday, but that was a six minute drive, today’s drive is at least 35-40 minutes, Maybe more depending on traffic.
While I go through my day out in the real world I’m planning on spending the morning on the terrace here at the cybercafe. (Is that virtual multitasking?) I’ll be munching on some of that fresh fruit that’s sitting on the table next to me, reading my book or napping, and enjoying the sunshine. It’s supposed to rain on and off all day. Just what I need—driving in the rain.
Viktor, I think I’m going to need more coffee.

What a nice day it’s been at the cybercafe! Just thought I’d come in for an iced mocha, although in the real world I’d probably order a nice hot cafe mocha. It’s raining and chilly out there. Had a great morning. No, really. Apparently, I’ve grown an inch and a half and I’m now 5’4” (it’s the little things like this that make me happy). Oh, gotta go.0
-
Hi Linda, glad you had a good morning, and are growing. Me, I'm about the same height the last time I went to the doctor so that's good. I'm not shrinking. We're getting a lot of rain as well. The sun finally came out this afternoon but there is still a little chill in the air. For dinner tonight I'm going to have a roast beef grinder with everything, and extra mayo. A coca cola and a bag of chips with that please. For dessert I'll have a large chocolate chip carnival cookie, that's one with m&ms, and an iced mocha. I'm starving tonight. I think I'll have dinner out on the terrace again.0
-
Did someone say M&M’s? Zzyyggy! Chocolate chip carnival cookies sound wonderful. It’s the M&M’s! Oh, chips would taste good with M&M’s because then you’d have that salty/sweet thing going on.
I feel so tall today. I’ve never been 5’4” before. I used to be almost that tall, but not quite. I haven’t really noticed any difference. 😄 Every time I go to the doctor I’m never certain how tall I’m going to be. It’s a mystery.0 -
Hi Linda. Don't you just love a mystery? For dinner tonight I'm going to have some fish sticks with french fries and lots of tarter sauce and a coca cola. For dessert I'll have some brownies, and an iced mocha. They had a bake sale where I live today and I got some chocolate chip cookies, cookies with m&ms and some brownies. Thought of you with the cookies with m&ms I think Francois made some earlier. Maybe I'll have a couple of those as well.0
-
Cookies and brownies? Thanks Zzyyggy! I’ll start with an M&M’s cookie first. It’s okay because I already had dinner. Francois and Sweetie made pasta with lots of sirloin and caramelized onions and peppers. Delicious. Viktor will be by shortly with iced mochas and coffee.
We had the most beautiful afternoon today. It rained this morning and then the sun came out and the wind blew away the humidity. It went up to 78 degrees and I was still wearing my sweatshirt because the wind was nice and cool. I think I’d like to spend the evening on the terrace at the cybercafe. The terrace at the cybercafe has the advantage over my deck in the evening because it doesn’t get buggy and humid.0 -
Hi Linda, we're having a yucky afternoon, but we do need the rain. I'm going to have the barbecued spare ribs with mashed potatoes, dinner rolls, and salad. A coca cola with all that please. For dessert I'll have some klondike bars, and an iced mocha. I think I'll enjoy the sunset out on the terrace.0
-
We still have time before sunset Zzyyggy and it’s a beautiful evening here at the cybercafe. I ordered the chicken fajitas dinner. It should be out soon. Viktor brought out chips, dips, and salsa if you’d like some. Here he is now with my iced tea. Plus, the ice cream freezer out here filled with all our favorites. I think we’re all set here. Maybe I’ll have another one of those cookies from the bake sale, too.0
-
Hi Linda, they certainly do take care of us around here don't they. For dinner tonight I'm going to have the fried chicken dinner with mashed potatoes, gravy and corn on the cob. Plenty of dinner rolls and butter with all that as well, and a coca cola. For dessert I'll have some klondike bars again, and an iced mocha. I think I'll go for a swim this evening before dinner.0
-
Ah, great swim. I’d better get dried off here. I ordered the roast chicken dinner. We’d better get moving, Zzyyggy,0
-
Viktor, I was checking out Betty’s recipes today and saw Warm Caramel Apple Cake and I thought I’d have that for dessert, with coffee, please. That should help me have sweet dreams tonight.0
-
Hi Linda, mmm that does sound good. For dinner tonight I'm going to have the meatloaf special with mashed potatoes, gravy, and carrots with dinner rolls and lots of butter. A coca cola with all that please. For dessert I'll have that warm Caramel Apple Cake, and an iced mocha. Didn't get mine this morning, forgot to book my ride for this morning. Just as well it was pouring out most of the morning so I would have had a wet walk back. I think I'll have dinner out on the terrace again tonight.0
-
Beautiful out here on the terrace tonight, Zzyyggy. The meatloaf special was yummy and the Caramel Apple Cake is definitely worth having again.0
