rplace Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Afternoon cappuccino, banging out some work and Roon Radio on. Just another Thursday in paradise. Hope all the CCC-ers are hanging in there. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grasshopper Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 brewed an afternoon pot of coffee. Been a slug today. Wife woke with a sore throat and ..... she went to the Dr. Nothing serious. Ear infection/s... both ears. She was relieved.... me, too. She's napping. I'm being quiet. Not really. I'm in the doghouse, listening to music. Quiet is .... she can't hear me making noise I've had the house open all day. It was kinda fresh this AM... and we're only going for 80 - 85`. Dinner is ready. Leftover tuna/noodle casserole. Works for me. I've been thinking I am gonna put a pot of [pinto] beans on. Good for breakfast, lunch and dinner. For breakfast, I serve them with scrambled egg and tortillas.... put a dollop of cottage cheese on the beans. Salsa, if you have some. That will carry you to lunch. Spose I should give patting tortillas a try. Too bad I don't have a big flat top. I do have cast iron pans. They will have to do. French tortillas [crepes] might be easier.There is a Hungarian version of crepes, too. The Hungarians prolly invented them...and the French claimed it. Like, we don't associate pasta with the Chinese. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStewMan Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 You had me until the cottage cheese. That is one thing that i’ve never been able to tolerate. Cottage Cheese, liver, and yogurt -- never could develop a taste. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This paint really is something else. Verrrrrry strange but I like it. The thing that get's me now is TRYING to order a Levolor for the French doors from the dining room out to the patio. Have all the measurements worked out but not seeing anything on the order form addressing what I want to do. Front window was a piece of cake since this woman I know worked in that Dept @ Lowes. Gave her the numbers and told her what I wanted and it's perfect! Didn't shrink or anything in the 5 years it laid in here in the box. Amazing! It'll sort I guess. Stores 20 miles away so want to just do it over the phone. State prison is there and a hot spot for covid with both employees and prisoners. Yard work today, temp's goin up and I'm ready for a break! Mid-afternoon Cappa? Not a bad idea actually! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarasl01 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 It's now raining where I am but even instant coffee satiates my craving of a warm drink while trying to relax and be productive at the same time.😌☕ 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarheel Posted May 15, 2020 Author Share Posted May 15, 2020 10 or 12 of us old boys will be meeting for lunch at a hotdog joint about 15 miles away. Paul's Place has been selling hotdogs since our school days. They make their own relish which is kind of special. So I will be cheating on the Atkin's Diet ordering 2 or 3 chili cheese dogs with relish. Chase em down with a frosty........ LF will be at home in case FedEx delivers my new sub woofer. A SVS PC-2000 Pro. Looks like a small water heater......cylindrical in shape. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnJ Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Pretty sure you'll like that cylindrical sub Chuck. The way they're made that PC-2000 series will dig deeper than the box 2000s. Don't quite know how the phase adjustments work in a downfiring sub but those sure do look nice.. plus your speakers already look sci-fi! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love hotdogs and from a historic place like that they must be good. 6 hours ago, Tarheel said: LF will be at home in case FedEx delivers my new sub woofer. A SVS PC-2000 Pro.

Is this your first sub, I don't remember you ever talking about using a sub before, either way I would bet your going to like what it adds. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
