Today will be a cooking frenzy. I have to finish the tuscan butter chicken.. spicy Korean beef is simmering on the stove. Maple bourbon chicken is in the crockpot, I've got the fixings for Egg Rolls in a Bowl, and last but not least... I'm going to attempt peanut chicken. My eyes and nose are running from all the onions I've sliced and cooked. Oh yeah.. rice to go with all of this. 

It might be enough food to last a couple of weeks... I'm not used to my kid being back with us yet. Although the teenage constant grazing years are behind us and he's a bit more health conscious.

Conversation. Do you do that while you eat?

With civilized company.

Considering I don't have a kitchen table right now... we'd be fighting for floor space with my two mutts. I do have a coffee table that the top raises up to a table height. Hubs uses it now. 

Scared of dinner conversation... okay.. you just sit quietly. I promise not to spill any secrets.. lol. As for the other two... yeah, it'd be veeerrrryyyyy interesting. (And educational I'm sure.. or is that the dessert conversation... hmmm🤔)

Holy smokes, that's a lot of food.  Sounds wonderful.

I hate to say it,but  I love the hog dogs that come in a tin that you cook in there liquid, served on a bun with ketchup and fried onions

I don’t think I’ve ever come across hot dogs sold in tins. 
As for the fixings? It’s plain chopped onions and mustard for me.

I threw in the towel....spicy peanut chicken will have to wait. Stick a fork in me because I'm done. 

I gotta admit... the maple bourbon pulled chicken came out fantastic🤤

All of it sounded so good, and I’m impressed you can make multiple meals at the same time and/or the same day.

I can only think of Vienna sausages...but they're so squishy in texture.  

 

I'm a ketchup and mustard gal. 

 

If I get one at a fair or a ball game and I can get it with sauerkraut and brown mustard I will, but those opportunities seem slim these days lol

Well duh, it has bourbon and maple. Of course it's going to come out fantastic. 🤣

Butter chicken, Korean Beef, maple bourbon pulled chicken, egg rolls, and (almost) spicy peanut chicken...maybe it's time for you to get a side gig and do a cookbook. The title could be "Kbois Kookbook for Korner Krews" 🤔

Happy Monday or Eclipses are a Pain Day (all the brats are home from school today to protect them.) 

And to rub that in a little more here is what arrived today...

As totality will be seen only in Niagara Falls.. that little town is expecting over a million people.. we have been seeing newspaper articles about this event for months. So far it's cloudy here...so it may just be a giant dud. We'll see or not ... Have a good day wherever you are and just be smart if it gets dark.

We are supposed to get 90% totality here. My plans are to bring the horse into the barn early and head home, hiding in the living room and maybe watch a movie or an episode of a show i follow but missed while watching that colicky pony thursday.

I saw a posting online... this guy said he'd love to buy a bunch of blow-up dolls... fill them with helium and let them go during the height of the eclipse so all the religious fanatics will think it's the Rapture. 🤣🤣

we'll have 100% here. some schools are closed, some counties issued state of emergency warnings, there are No Parking signs on the roads, it's absolutely nuts.

the best thing was there wasn't any traffic this morning lol!

We're expecting 88% here.  Might hop outside and check it out between patients if the clouds clear.

Lucky is hale and healthy and enjoying life.

No new info on the one that passed.

Another child killed by two Cane Corso dogs April 1.. It's in the paper today. He was a sweet kid by all accounts, 11 years old. He'd known the dogs for a while, but belonged to his dad's roommate. Dad went out to the garage for 10 minutes when he returned the boy was dead. Official cause, dog bite.  These two dogs also attacked and bit a women at the same property a week prior. 

This is happening too often. Don't leave your kids alone with this giant dogs. I know, I've heard it all before... they are gentle, they are sweet, they've been raised properly.  Maybe, but don't trust them with your kids. That goes for any of the bull breeds/mastifs and other large guarding/protection breeds.
