Something About Nothing............ #14

Janet, I hate pressure cookers too. Bought an instant pot, but I prefer the old fashioned version of cooking........not a soup fan at all.....except my butternut squash soup, and I do make a fabulous chicken noodle soup. Yes, I wonder how parents manage coordinating kids events today.....they do so much at times. And you have a January trip booked too?? How fabulous.......


mac.....nice post. Yes, some new posters here would be nice......and some old timer posters too.......miss some of them......


Charade, never heard of Disney + We’ll stick with Prime and Netflix as occasionally there’s something we’d watch.....like the recent Chernobyl which was off the scale excellent.........I’ve been “blonde” for so long I have no clue what my natural colour would look like now!!! I’m guessing it’s not the brunette I used to be! Yes, babies are always wonderful!




Saturday and it’s just above zero here. Beautiful sunshine which means the rains have stopped!

Got a few housework jobs done this morning between the two of us, now going to get ready for lunch with friends. Looking forward to it. Should be an enjoyable one.

Not much else going on this weekend.......

Have a good one folks.......
 
Hope you enjoyed your lunch with friends, Schumi. Yay, for no rain today. And will join you, sunny and 20 F. Thank goodness for heated car seats, and a good heater in the car.

Errands today, as kids want to go to the outlets. Fine with me. Seems little one is fine with athletic fashion. Though I have to say, how some can charge such high a price for a pair of leggings is beyond me. At least sales and discounts this holiday weekend, will take advantage of some military ones.

Happy Saturday, and Mac, so nice to see ya post. I hope we stay, a nice place to play, and talk about something about nothings. You know, food porn talk, weather, vacations, and how are days are going. I enjoy reading about all of that nothings. Pictures, a bonus.

Okay, all are home, happy Momma, and off to the gas station, then a quick grocery stop, before coming home to take the kids shopping too.

Happy Saturday indeed.
 
Charade, never heard of Disney +
Disney + is a new streaming service that will start here on November 12. It is supposed to have new, original content as well as the older Disney stuff. We can subscribe just to Disney or get it bundled with Hulu and ESPN +. DH wants to get the bundle. I did some searching and it looks like it will be coming to the UK in March of next year. We love Disney/Pixar/Marvel/Star Wars, etc., so this will be perfect for us. They've even managed to get the rights to all of the Simpsons episodes, but I won't be watching that.

I have no idea what I will do today. Dh will be gone all day working on a student film project. I may do some shopping. We are doing a family Christmas photo next week and I am trying to coordinate outfits. I want something not necessarily that matches, but looks good together. I want to avoid cutesy or tacky.

Not sure if I’ll get Disney + I think they charge $10? I already have Netflix and Amazon, and thinking about Apple TV Streaming service.
Thats great doing a family photo. We had one done years ago, the girls were so young. Had our dogs in it too!
 


Good Saturday morning all
In a schumi’s case, good afternoon

She has probably finished the bacon off already
Lol

From what I watched on the weather channel, many places are gonna have cool or colder temps
Not many of us are going to escape it this weekend

Hope Lynne has a fun weekend and gets a lot of mom time with her daughter this weekend

Is Schumi the only homie that heads to Orlando this month?

It will be a lot warmer there for her than what the rest of us will have coming up


I still have leftover Halloween candy
Been making a dent in it

Have a great weekend homies !
 
Not sure if I’ll get Disney + I think they charge $10? I already have Netflix and Amazon, and thinking about Apple TV Streaming service.
It’s $6.99 here or 12.99 with the Hulu/ESPN bundle. We’re about to cancel Amazon since we do t watch it very much.
 
That doesn’t sound like something we’d ever watch.....too much Disney!! Love the family picture idea Charade.......we have one done every few years or so, although it’s been around 5 years since the last one, Kyle’s 21st we had one done. Yes, we always looked coordinated but not matching......


mac, Janet arrives same day as us this month......not sure if anyone else is going or not........bacon tomorrow......as we were out for lunch we had a very light breakfast......too light as I was ravenous by time we ate!!! Enjoy that extra Halloween candy.......nice to nibble on :thumbsup2


Lynne.....good luck shopping on a Saturday afternoon......always avoid that over here! I haven’t used the heated seats in this car yet, Kyle has when he took our car one day, said it was good lol.....I did use the cooling setting a couple of times in the summer and it was fabulous!!



Lunch was wonderful. There were 8 of us eating and the restaurant was busy as it closes for the winter after today, so everyone wanted lunch or dinner this evening. We had a little quieter alcove area so we could chat above the din! Although after a few Prosecco‘s had been enjoyed we may have been louder than the din!!

Seafood platters and charcuterie with few other bits and pieces was lunch for everyone today.....I think we got some extra as we are regulars which was lovely........will miss this place over the winter, but it reopens end of March. Think I ate my body weight in bread and Olives while we waited to order.......:blush:


It‘s pitch black now. But it was nice today, we had a high of around 30F but sunshine was lovely......Prosecco and wine warms you though!

Quiet Saturday night ahead.......it’s very chilly outside so I’m glad we didn’t opt for dinner tonight.

Hope everyone’s day is good.......
 


Long day, greeted the dawn & the bacon :). Last night’s candy sushi making went well.

Never did post the pics I took of her pennywise costume at the school reading fair event. Visited her dad there at FB practice beforehand.

After shuttling GD off until tomorrow evening, did some shopping for basics for the holiday meals. Scored nice deal at Sams on a Bonefish GC. We really enjoy the one near sea world in Orlando.

Dug around on Target’s sale online & saw they had a 1/2 off sale on a make your own Harry Potter wand. You then link it via an app to phone or tablet for tons of different coding activities. GD really seemed to like doing it during her STEM camp this summer. Will admit it’s all Greek to me lol. Any chance to slip in something educational but still have fun & I’m all in though.

Made a quick chicken stir fry for dinner. Cheated and used combo of ready made teriyaki and sweet chili sauces...bam! That will pop up again in the dining rotation for sure. Will putz around the net the rest of the night while watching football on the tube

Next week we will cancel Prime and get the Disney + bundle.
Didn’t know they had a bundle. I (ab)use my Prime shipping to the max lol especially by subscribe & save. So nice to be able to chop those items of normal grocery list
And you have a January trip booked too?? How fabulous.......
Well, middle DS has been off work since beginning of September with his eye surgery. Had complications, but doing well enough he should be released 2nd week of December. Needs to go back to work & hope the vacation request he will be submitting shortly thereafter is approved. I booked all components thus far fully cancellable, worst case scenario

like the recent Chernobyl which was off the scale excellent.........I’ve been “blonde” for so long I have no clue what my natural colour would look like now!!! I’m guessing it’s not the brunette I used to be! Yes, babies are always wonderful!
It really was an incredible miniseries.

I’m told i’m ‘Fading fast’ on top of head as to root color but inch down my head still dark. Honestly, wish i’d Go shock white :).
Though I have to say, how some can charge such high a price for a pair of leggings is beyond me. At least sales and discounts this holiday weekend, will take advantage of some military ones.
A good pair of athletic leggins will wear like iron. However, I’m also very fond of the lalarue ‘fashion type’ knock offs that Walmart sells.
They've even managed to get the rights to all of the Simpsons episodes, but I won't be watching that.
Unfortunately, they did. Those of us who are fans are holding our collective breathes they don’t dumb it down.

The Mandolarian previews look very good though, tempted but offers i’ve seen have a long term commitment.
Is Schumi the only homie that heads to Orlando this month?
Ahem :)
Road trip time!
 
Ah, nothing like that Saturday night Chinese food night. Older one got that General’s chicken. Let us just say, made my eyes water. Hot, but oh so tasty. Little one was even happy, as no good Chinese food places close enough to campus that is edible. And she had a huge plate of the food we ordered tonight. Now all are chilling.

Lots of shopping was done today, so little one has some stuff and food to take back. Older one scored some, me, only got one shirt I wanted. But very successful.

And Charade, older one is counting down the days and hours to that Disney Plus start. We did buy a year of that bundle, to see if we like it.

Great pictures, Keisha. And woot, for your trip coming up soon too.

Hey Buckeev, nice to see ya drive by.
 
Good Saturday morning all
In a schumi’s case, good afternoon

She has probably finished the bacon off already

No Orlando for me. I did it a couple of years ago to see all the Christmas decorations at wdw. It was beautiful but we went late Nov/early Dec and I found it too stressful coming home and then trying to get organized for Christmas. Disneyland was much easier as it’s a shorter trip. Short flight and only 6 days vs 14.
I think I may have finished off the last of the Halloween candy yesterday. Lol.
It’s $6.99 here or 12.99 with the Hulu/ESPN bundle. We’re about to cancel Amazon since we do t watch it very much.
With the exchange rate that sounds right. And we don’t get Hulu.

Lunch sounds yummy. And I love olives! And Prosecco ::yes::
5:00 here and just about black. Lol when I saw 30 I thought wow she’s had a turn around in weather, until I saw the F, yes I am blond!

:wave2: Where are you off too?

Keisha good to hear your son is doing better. Mummy Dust for continued healing.
My dinner company should be arriving soon, better get going!

Road trip time!

Your GD is fabulous as Pennywise!! That is an amazing outfit....she looks great!

Janet, I did know you had a January trip!!! Doh!! When you mentioned your boy......yep......blonde moment! Love the sound of teriyaki and sweet chilli mixed together.......we do similar at the wok experience with teriyaki and Szechuan......hmmm.....we always have those two sauces at home....will give it a try next time.

I think I may be completely or almost completely grey underneath the blonde......my mum stopped colouring her hair and she was white then, but she didn’t start to go grey till her mid 50’s! She had a beautiful colour of hair till then.


Lynne.....glad you have a spicy General Tso dish where you live.......everyone I’ve tried and been told it was hot.......it wasn’t. Although I guess you’ll be glad if it was milder.......lol.....




Sunday, and it’s raining. Not supposed to be raining according to forecast, but it is. And cold.

We are off out to Remembrance Sunday Parade soon, going to be a cold one today. Back home for bacon sandwiches and big mug of tea. Dinner tonight is a roast chicken.

Have a great Sunday.......
 
Oh no, Schumi, while I said it was hot, I enjoy a bit of heat sometimes. We use a local Chinese place that I have never had a MSG issue with, and they cook the way we like, with a perfect amount of heat when needed. Little one enjoyed her beef and broccoli, with egg rolls that were snatched up quick.

Good thing, soup was left over, and was perfect for a breakfast start while the kids are still asleep, and DH left much earlier to check on his DM. So enjoy a quiet house.

Have a most lovely Sunday all. Time for some more errands, little one packing, and back to school she goes. Then, happy to be not having to get up early Monday, to honor all that have served. And maybe taking my DH to lunch on Monday.

Oh I thought you had said before you didn't enjoy hot and spicy food. I`m glad you liked it.......I never find American food to be spicy enough generally speaking.......but then, we do like it overly hot and spicy!!! It`s good when you find a place that suits your tastes.

We have another Remembrance Parade tomorrow too, but it`s not a holiday here. But we will go to the War Memorial again.



Didn`t rain all day, it has stopped now......but at the Remembrance Parade, it was dreadful. Rain couldn`t have been heavier. But, you do it without complaint.

Chicken is slowly roasting......will make some chicken noodle soup tomorrow....one of the few soups I like. We all like it though although Kyle will be at work tomorrow and miss it.

Time for a cup of tea I think.......starting to dull down and darkness isn`t too far away.....
 
Morning all. Couldn’t fall asleep for some reason, running on a few hours of sleep time. Still trying to rev up the old engine & check off todayh’s boxes. Decided one more cuppa coffee & quick buzz by here can’t hurt that cause.
No Orlando for me. I did it a couple of years ago to see all the Christmas decorations at wdw. It was beautiful but we went late Nov/early Dec and I found it too stressful coming home and then trying to get organized for Christmas. Disneyland was much easier as it’s a shorter trip. Short flight and only 6 days vs 14.

I’m not adverse to doing online BF shopping on vacation:). I’m a good multitasker. Last few years a good bit has been online starting Wednesday anyway. If we finish up our Friday at AK early enough, may just stop by the outlets on the way to our Sea World hotel that night if the mood strikes me but no idea how swamped it gets in the evening that day.

We usually would go to MCO the 2nd weekend after thanksgiving. last few years that time period has fallen later/more into the first full week of Dec. have found being away from home anytime in Dec when the calendar hits double digits, it’s more difficult to get it all done.

I adore that time of year there though, it’s absolutely beautiful, Sea World’s efforts always take my breath away. Surely, sets me in the right mood for the holidays.

Leaving day after Thanksgiving is a bit rough. Thankfully, my youngest DS graciously offers his home for the ever expanding guests, it makes it easier to just walk out the door Thursday. I do all the cooking for it and his ‘friendsgiving’ the week prior, he’s happy to have leftovers galore.

I’m wrestling with whether to put up the tree at home before Thanksgiving this year. The one year we waited it just wasn’t a long enough period to enjoy it’s beauty :)

Love the sound of teriyaki and sweet chilli mixed together.......we do similar at the wok experience with teriyaki and Szechuan......hmmm.....we always have those two sauces at home....will give it a try next time.
Necessity was the mother of that invention lol. The mr doesn’t like it as hot as I do & i’m Of the #5 type. I went with a 3:1. Next time will do 2:1 with the sweet chili being prominent
I never find American food to be spicy enough generally speaking.......but then, we do like it overly hot and spicy!!! It`s good when you find a place that suits your tastes.
Hot stuff. I have a friends who swears once she started liking it hot to a certain degree, her tastebuds started to dull & now she has to keep upping the ante. Good of an excuse as any to carry her own mini bottle of hot sauce.

We‘re putting our inside trees up the weekend before we go, think that’s the 23rd and 24th. Takes us two days to do it all, but, we have someone to help with the outdoor stuff, it’s mainly lights, and he’ll do that once we’ve gone....I love to get the most of our trees too, usually the beginning of December is our trees putting up time.......so Nov does seem early. But....it’ll be fab coming back to it all done.

We’re back the 11th, so plenty of time to get anything organised we haven’t managed before we go.......I love being in Orlando for the holiday period.

Yes, I sometimes think we’re immune to a lot of spice.....then I try something different and wholly moly......it blows my head off!! I’m definitely going to try your sauce mix.......Kyle loves teriyaki but he’d never forgive me if I mixed “his” sauce with sweet chilli......will make two batches of stir fry up that night......



Dinner was nice.......we were all starving early, I think it’s the cold that’s making us hungry!

Quiet night ahead again.
 
We have managed to waste most of the afternoon. After church and lunch dh and I went shopping for something for us to wear for our family CHristmas photo. I wanted something Christmassy, but just couldn't find anything I liked. We finally decided to go to the University bookstore and buy university shirts. (The picture is being taken at the university.) Dh and I got university dad and mom shirts.
Our friends who we usually spend holidays with gave us our official Thanksgiving invitation today. I offered to bring pie. I'm going to make an apple pie, chocolate peanut butter pie, and a pumpkin pie. I've never made a pumpkin pie before. I just hope the recipe I chose is good.

Dug around on Target’s sale online & saw they had a 1/2 off sale on a make your own Harry Potter wand. You then link it via an app to phone or tablet for tons of different coding activities. GD really seemed to like doing it during her STEM camp this summer. Will admit it’s all Greek to me lol. Any chance to slip in something educational but still have fun & I’m all in though.
That sounds like something B would like. When we were at Universal back in 2017 she bought an interactive wand. At first I was worried that the would look too old around all the small children using the wand, but then I saw a couple of senior citizens using an interactive wand.

Didn’t know they had a bundle. I (ab)use my Prime shipping to the max lol especially by subscribe & save. So nice to be able to chop those items of normal grocery list
I don;t think they have advertised the bundle very heavily. I will miss the prime shipping, but we don't buy enough to justify the monthly fee.

Ah, nothing like that Saturday night Chinese food night. Older one got that General’s chicken. Let us just say, made my eyes water. Hot, but oh so tasty.
I love General Tso's chicken, but have yet to find some that is truly spicy. I guess the places I've been really tone down the heat. I like enough spice to give good flavor, but not so spicy that it's painful to eat.

No Orlando for me. I did it a couple of years ago to see all the Christmas decorations at wdw. It was beautiful but we went late Nov/early Dec and I found it too stressful coming home and then trying to get organized for Christmas. Disneyland was much easier as it’s a shorter trip. Short flight and only 6 days vs 14.
We've bee to WDW the week of Christmas and the week after. I thought the week after would be awful, but it really wasn't too bad. I would be open to a trip back to DL too.

I think I may be completely or almost completely grey underneath the blonde......my mum stopped colouring her hair and she was white then, but she didn’t start to go grey till her mid 50’s! She had a beautiful colour of hair till then.
I think I may be almost completely gray too. I started getting a few gray hairs in high school and had a lot by the time I was in my 30's. I can't even remember a time when my mom didn't have gray hair. The women in my family tend to have thick, dark hair, but we also go gray very early.

I’m wrestling with whether to put up the tree at home before Thanksgiving this year. The one year we waited it just wasn’t a long enough period to enjoy it’s beauty :)
We usually decorate the first or second week of December, but since dh is inviting his students over on December 5, he wants to have the decorations up. Looks like he will be doing most of it the week of Thanksgiving.

I am currently watching the Panthers and Packers. It's snowing in Wisconsin. :oops:🌨
 
Sniff, took little one back at lunchtime, had a nice brunch with her at the diner we all like to eat at, before taking her back. Been quite awhile since she had eaten there, and yep, one of the best places to have matzoh ball soup. Huge, softball size ball in the soup. So tasty, and one of her favorite to order. Older one got a bit of leftovers from that meal. Traffic was nasty getting into the City, but not too bad on the way back.


What for dinner? Thinking of either heating up a ham steak, or cook burgers, as bought ground beef again. Hmm, whatever older one wants, as DH will surely eat anything left over.

And yep, Santa arrived at most of our malls on Friday, and Christmas music in all the stores. Have to say, some pretty Christmas decor in the huge mall we stopped in on Saturday.

Have a sweet Sunday night. And boo, Tuesday, as the temp drops on Tuesday, rain will become slushy snowy before drying up Wednesday. High on Wednesday is in the 20’s, oh my. So, will enjoy the plus or so 3 degree higher than average temp on Monday.

OMG, two weeks until my little one is enjoying a week at home, and all will be home for Thanksgiving. So hoping my nephew brings his family, including first time actually seeing my 8 month old great nephew. Will be nice, and to see his older two sisters too. They live in the state west of us, so we only see them only once or twice a year..
 
Finally doing a late weekend stop in :wave2:

Sounds like everyone had had a pretty good weekend! There was some great meals cooked and eaten and have given me some great ideas for a couple of meals. Shopping. and relaxing done as well - which is exactly what a weekend is for.

We are digging out of a big dump we received all day Friday and Saturday. Started as rain Thursday and started snowing Friday and Saturday. We received around a foot and a half of snow on top of the rain turned to ice. It has made for awesome roads all around us on a long weekend too boot. But what can I do when I live in Santa land. Today was cold again around -20 C or -8F. But we are going to above freezing temps again on Wednesday...so it should be a nice slushy gross mess here again. Oh well...I'll take the warmer weather. :tilt:

I made myself busy this weekend to ride out the snow just making a quilt for my sister's birthday. I almost have the top done and tomorrow ( as it's a holiday here for Remembrance Day ) I will sandwich together and hoping start " quilting " it together. I hope to get a good portion of it done tomorrow. I'm looking forward to just sewing and watching the Remembrance Day ceremonies on tv.

And as I couldn't decide what to make for supper tonight...we had breakfast for supper. The boys wanted bacon and eggs...so that was just an easy meal.

I have thought about the Disney+. But we would need to get a smart tv for that. We are waiting for the tv's we have to crap out or when the boy child moves out...THEN we will get a new smart TV. For now, we have Netflix and crave with our TV package. So that will have to wait for now. That seems to be enough for us...for now anyways.

Well, I should go do more sewing on the quilt top. It really is my happy place. And hope that most of these blocks don't give me too much grief to piece together.

I'll leave the light on for anyone having trouble sleeping
 
Yeah I still have the light on, thanks Pumpkin. Good luck with finishing the quilt, and no don’t want to even see that low a temperature as you have had. Hope the temperature goes up and melts all that snow.

For some reason, still up and not tired. I should try to get to sleep. Rest of the house is.

Good night all!
