Good morning, @Beanc !

One of my cats was caught moping.

@LiberalLibrarian That's not even a proper nose, it's polystyrene!

Nota bene:

If I don't get back to you (respond, favorite your post, whatever) within a reasonable amount of time and you're expecting a response, it means one of the following:

1. I've simply chosen not to respond. (rude but intentional, less likely)
2. My internet is out. (not likely)
3. I've been called away. (less likely)
4. I've suddenly fallen asleep. (more likely)

Number 4 happens due to the medicines I'm on. I apologize in advance for it, as well as for numbers 2 and 3.

@jaunty Good Morning!

Just wingin' it on down the road...

@LnzyHou Good Morning!

Good morning, CoSo! It feels good to have hauled myself out to face yet another day. 😂

@GaryPoole I used to report traffic for KRLD 1080 AM here in Dallas/Ft. Worth on the 9pm-5am shift. I know from whence you speak. You most assuredly speak the truth.

@Mandypar Thank you. I appreciate the kind words.

BTW, the hot chocolate is the high octant Penzey's mix.

Good morning, CoSo.

I am supping on hot chocolate and Tylenol in an attempt to get rid of an almost-migraine headache.

If these don't work, I'm calling out the big Qulipta guns.

Oww oww oww oww oww.

@th3j35t3r Thank you, it's good to be back. I've had a ...erm... "congested" year, for lack of another way of putting it. Don't ask me to describe it. 😅

Greetings, @th3j35t3r ! How goes it this evening, aside from the occasional dick pic?

The sausage and potatoes came out okay, I guess. The sausages cooked up just fine. The potatoes weren't quite as good. I think I put too much butter in them - it's hard to measure that Kerrygold stuff. Anyway, they were kind of greasy, but not terribly so. I think I can fix it with the next batch.

@LnzyHou Either way. If you cut simple rounds, the seeds & ribs will be left in by default. However, if you want to remove the seeds & ribs, I recommend cutting the jalapeño in half, removing the seeds & ribs, then cutting half-moons out of each cleaned side. I've done both - they both work,.
