Attention What are you doing at the moment? 2024-25

[Kulindahr]

Recovering from moving half a yard of dirt with a shovel.

 

[LilBit]

Silently judging you.

 

[Araucaria]

^Oh yes. We're all a bunch of old curmudgeons, (mostly) silently judging each other's posts.

Right now I'm on here Jubbing, killing time until the world opens up for business, so I can do all the crap I have to take care of.

Just finished breakfast. Went to I-Hop to get an omelet. Last time it was so big that I cut it in threes and had it for three breakfasts. I am half-heartedly on a diet so I decided to eat only a fourth of it this time. I'll have it for the next three days. I-Hop was busier than normal and the motel parking lots had more than the usual cars because of the eclipse. After today I have movies to go to downtown for the rest of the week. The Cleveland International Film Festival is going on and I am seeing thirteen films plus streaming one to my computer the week after.

Just back from the Big Smoke....had to go to the city to pick up a piece of artwork and managed to scoot home before it gets dark out

 

[fredroy]

Just back in the house from watching the eclipse. Pretty darn cool. And neato and spiffy and rad! and chill.

 

[Kulindahr]

Pondering grabbing a bag of eight pieces of dark meat chicken for $5.99.

Making homemade chocolate dipped peanut butter cookies as part of my seafood diet.

Stuck in the office today...and it is a nice sunny day.

Making homemade chocolate dipped peanut butter cookies as part of my seafood diet.

Thee cookies are NOT and I repeat NOT seafood.

But they would fit nicely into a vegetarian diet.

 

[me203]

Talk of cookies reminds me that I saw some vegan cupcakes on the grocery store bakery clearance rack. I was sort of tempted, but didn't want to spend the $$$$. Even on clearance, they weren't cheap. And I figure I don't need the fat or sugar. But now, a day later, I sort of wish I'd gotten them, just to see what they were like...

 

[me203]

Sick joke time: I wonder if the ingredients of those vegan cupcakes included real vegan.

I'm making a nice crab cake sandwich.

Easy recipe. Two chocolate dipped peanut butter cookies with a scoop of vanilla ice cream in the middle.

I don't see crab mentioned in this recipe...

But maybe it would be crab cake if I made it, since I'm a crab?

You are missing nothing.

It isn't hard to make a vegan cake or muffins. You just use oil in the batter for the fat.

You are missing nothing.

I discovered this yesterday. Yesterday's clearance items included these again, and I caved...

They were (I thought) actually slightly better than most grocery store bakery items. Not that that's much of an achievement. But not so good that I'd be particularly inclined to buy again, clearance or not.

 

[NotHardUp1]

Watching So Help Me Todd.

It's such a frothy, silly romp. Completely unrealistic, but great light comedy.

Love the actors.

 

[Dondraper]

Wishing I had another chance with Danny.

 

[rareboy]

at the end of a full work week...finally.

and trying to plan out a rainy weekend indoors.

Maybe Brioche?

Just got back from my morning walk. Although it is 50 F, it is windy out there and I had to lean into the wind a couple of times. Last night I went to the International Film Festival downtown and coming home the wind blew my car a couple of times on the freeway, especially on a bridge.
