  1. Is it awful of me me to say I'll skip the pie but take the pie plate?
  2. Except apparently peas ...

    Chapter 16

    I think our conjecture equates to fanfic.
  4. How 'bout some peas with your bacon?
  5. Happy dreams B.
  6. Dame Diana Rigg has died at age 82 ... RIP Mrs Peel.
  7. Greetings Albert. I hope the smoke doesn't become too much an issue for you.
  8. And they evolve so perhaps there's hope ... that one day @Valkyrieand @Page Scrawler will enjoy mushrooms.
  9. I was there many years ago when my wife's younger brother was married. We got home a week before the earthquake that struck during the World Series. I liked the city very much and would like to visit again. The "Summer of Love". I think I read about that in my history book. Seriously, I was a preteen and remember how scandalous it seemed when I heard adults talk about it.
  10. So about those inexpensive reading glasses ...
  11. My first experience with Brussel sprouts was in my late 20's. My wife found a recipe for maple glazed roasted ones and thought we should try them. She and I managed to gag down a couple each before giving up. Our son spit out his first. It was another 20+ years before I tried them again and now roasted or braised sprouts are among my favorite veggies. I've yet to find any preparation for kale, and I've tried a few, that I find palatable. Mum feels the same.
  12. That's what I said ...
  13. We had more autumnal weather this past weekend. Today is what my grandmother might have called "close". Not overly warm, upper 70's but the humidity is such that the air feels thick and clingy. I need glasses for distance, so I have lens with a single correction. I typically only wear them to drive or when I'm away from home. Around the house and garden I usually forego wearing them unless the attractive young fellow a couple doors down is out working in his vegetable patch shirtless. He's a dark ginger, slightly built but very fit lad with a bit of chest hair that glistens when he's worked up a bit of sweat.
  14. That sounds lovely. I'm fond of daffodils.
  15. Now Albert, I know for a fact that there isn't a big orange bridge in your backyard nor is your neighbor's house located in the Castro despite the noisy chickens so I seriously doubt you're looking like San Francisco though you may have a post apocalyptic sky.
  16. So was he wearin' boots yesterday or maybe it would be better to ask if it was the night before last when those boots ended up under the bed. You know Marty is gonna want to get him all in a lather and then shave his cheeks baby smooth ...
  17. I think kale might be improved by adding a fluorescent gene to provide a warning that it's not fit for human consumption.
  18. Frightening when the real world takes on the appearance of Hollywood special effects.
  19. G'day y'all. A warm soft morning here. We opted out of our usual morning walk. Choosing to be lazy and dry. I have an appointment to pickup my new glasses from the optometrist this morning. A weld on the frames of my old pair failed. Can't complain, I had the same frames for five years. Last prescription change I just had them change to the new lenses. The new ones are similiar in style and coloring.
  20. Very cool. Thanks for sharing.
  21. Man's early steps at genetically modified crops.

    Chapter 16

    That went well ... mostly. The divorce was amicable but there was still some pain and disappointment to be worked through. Something tells me Jimmy will be able to handle Maddie just fine. Should be an interesting luncheon come Sunday.
  23. Might I please have a bowl too?
  24. I think he spends too much time with no one but an alpaca for a close friendship.
