@CBF Hi Geek! How's your day going for you?
@MisterE Pretty Good so far!! and you?
@CBF Good. Can't complain today. Already a good day.
I hope you have a great afternoon!
@MisterE hellllloooo
@JeSsA Hi Jessa! How are you doing today?
@MisterE hangin in there. How about yourself??
@JeSsA Doing well today, thanks. Well-rested after a long sleep. Cold outside today, but we were a bit spoiled by a week of 70F weather. Overall, good!
@MisterE Same here! It’s 79’s today, but rain and more rain and colder temps to come.
@JeSsA Oh well, we just go back to Winter clothing and hot food and drink.
@MisterE true story!
@MisterE Hello !
@ACG2 Hi ACG2! How's everything going today?
@MisterE Just Dandy, thanks! How about you?
Drove home going closer to the speed limit than usual due to rain. Happy to be cozy and out of Business suit, making yogurt. 😷😀🌻
@ACG2 Excellent! How do you make yogurt?
Doing well here today, thanks. Well-rested, nice but cold day here. It'll be a good afternoon.
@MisterE 1. If you have plain yogurt, one can use it as a ‘starter’. 2. Boil as much milk (I use whole, organic) as you want for yogurt. 3. Let cool to barely warm to finger 4. Pour into glass or ceramic bowl that is lined with yogurt ‘starter’ either from previous batch or from store bought plain (never tried with vanilla) as starter. 5. Cover the glass or ceramic bowl and place in oven overnight with the oven light on. 6. The yogurt should be set by morning. 1/2
@MisterE My MIL says to keep it in the oven for only 6-7 hours to keep it from tasting too sour. I like it sour so I let it sit all night (and usually make it at night while cooking dinner). One only needs two tablespoons of starter, so if you are buying the plain yogurt, look for a smaller size. Enjoy!
@ACG2 You're putting it in the oven with just the oven light on? What happens when the light hits the mix in the bowl?
@MisterE Yes, just the oven light on all night long; we keep the door shut unless it is summer when it may get too hot. That is just warm enough to cause the yogurt culture to magically create the yogurt.
@ACG2 Thanks.
Afternoon MisterE!
@evamarie Hi Eva-Marie! How is your day off going so far? Any hiking to be done today?
The wonderful hiking trail near my house with sweeping views of the Pacific is mobbed! I’m opting to check out Netflix, instead. How are you?
@evamarie Good choice. Doing well here, thanks. I slept a long time, so well-rested. Cold outside, so indoors today. Overall, pretty good.
What are you going to watch on Netflix?
Don’t know for sure, yet. Just finished “The Queen’s Gambit” and it would be hard to top that show 😁
@evamarie I heard it was good.
It was brilliant. Highly recommended. The plot was basically about an orphan who fell in love with chess, and her quest to become a world champion. It’s a period piece set in the 50’s and 60’s. The acting, writing, costumes and sets were fantastic.
@evamarie I'd heard an interview done by Scott Simon on NPR discussing this movie, and the discussion was as you described.
The first episode had some pacing problems but it was smooth sailing afterwards.
@MisterE Good afternoon to you MisterE!
