I am enjoying homemade frozen yogurt and checking on y'all. Did manage to pull some weeds before the evening rains came. How do you make your frozen yogurt? I make my own regular yogurt but have been giving thought to making frozen lately. I admit I use the recipe that came with the Cuisinart ice cream freezer. My recipe uses lowfat vanilla yogurt, a quarter-cup of sugar, bittersweet chocolate (I mix equal parts 70%, 78% and 85% Lindt bars) and lactose-free whole milk (and this is important - it does have to be whole milk not skim or lowfat). To add extra flavor, you can add cherry juice or chopped cherries as it churns in the machine. I've chipped a tooth on frozen fruit before, so I just top my yogurt with fresh cherries.

May be checking out latest yogurt/ice cream freezer.

Well I've been uploading kitty pictures and I nearly got the BIG kitty file done, only 213 more uploads to go. Then it's seasonal kitty files that I have to do after that. Kitty could be back as early as Canadian Thanksgiving or even earlier than that.
It's so much work doing this, it's gotten to the point it's no fun collecting or even finding new kitty memes. What I have I have and that's it.

We have rain. It will be nice to have the air cooled, and to get rid of the dust and smoke for even a little while. I have to go into work today, we are switching over to a new server. Only stupidvisor didn't give us a time it was I will text you when I head in. Two of the guys on our team have an hour commute, just set a time not when you decide to wake up on a Sunday.

Sharon very inconsiderate of stupidvisor. You need to pick a time that gives you enough time to complete task plus time if things do not go as expected.

I am told after a few glasses work quits being work?

Hello Muffins, it's a beautiful day here, a really nice 25C with no humidity. I only have 162 more kitty images to upload from the big file.

My DH is a "lefty", wyouser. I'm sure he'll be pleased to know he has a day. I need to attack my paperwork pile(s) today. Way too much to not be filed, or thrown away.

Busy day so far. Up early and biked. Fixed quiche for breakfast, and vacuumed and cleaned bathrooms while it baked. Then went to Costco. Crazy there, because school starts tomorrow. You would think there would be no more food to buy ever from the way people were shopping!
Home now and running load #2 of laundry. I plan to wash the car later and the lawn mowing will wait until Tuesday. I am working all day tomorrow. Dinner is spaghetti and meatballs tonight - I will cook the sauce and meatballs slowly while I wash the car.

I've stopped uploading for now, my eyes get too tired. I've got about 50 more images to upload for the main kitty file, the big one. I found so many darn doubles, it's crazy.
Thanks for the brunch Nancy, it looks really good.

It's done, the big kitty file folder is now completely uploaded onto my new image host. That's 1004 kitty images. This does not even add in the speshul kitty holidays. I started this uploading on July 7, 2017.

Just finished two hours of freelance. Going to cook meatballs and wash car. Which means it will rain.

Typical server upgrade, the majority of the work was done in the first 4 hours. The last 4 hours was solving a couple of issues. There are some minor issues to tackle tomorrow. Also typical of a server upgrade we had donuts and pizza. I am stuffed.

Speshul Kitty files have more images in them now, so it will be a wee bit different for the holidays with daily kitty.

Good afternoon everyone. 80F might rain. Just had new stone put on the back driveway. Looks better then when we bought the place in 2009.

Afternoon all. Four hours staging a house (and the garden/pool area ) and I am home working. Just billed four freelance pieces I sold (YAY!) and also deposited my checks from my last job (paycheck plus 11 days' unused vacation). I am glad I got housework and car care done yesterday so I can work for myself this afternoon. I will dust the house and vacuum tomorrow. May do some weeding later.

I'm trying out a new recipe this afternoon. Hot Fudge Pie. And, I'm having DD pick up some vanilla ice cream on her way home from work to go with it. And speaking of DD, she is SUCH a good kid: she was at a charity event this weekend, and won 2 "My Pillow"'s at a raffle, and knowing of my back issues, she gave one of them to me!
