Why are the theater seats burgundy and the toilet white? Or what's up with the butt ugly tile floor?

I cooked chicken Fettuccine Alfredo for the first time ever for dinner tonight. It was a planned meal, but it got on my nerves so bad cooking it, that I don’t even want to eat lol. The first problem was when I was grating the Parmesan cheese so it would be ready when needed. I’ve had the whateveryoucallit to grate the cheese for as long as I can remember (decades), although I don’t know why I bought it in the first place or remember ever using it. I obviously didn’t know what I was doing today, and it clearly hasn’t been used enough to be dull, because I managed to cut both of my hands grating the cheese. So I had to stop twice and go tend to that. Neither spot was bleeding much, but who wants somebody preparing their food with an exposed cut, no matter how small? I certainly don’t, even though it was me with the small cuts and doing the cooking. I think that set the tone for me being over it, even though I was just getting things ready and hadn’t even started cooking anything yet lol. I struggled through it, and it’s done now. Mister is eating and says it’s good. I just want to go to bed and go to sleep. Throw the whole pan away! I know that that kind of sauce tends to separate and is not ideal for leftovers. I don’t care, I’m not cooking tomorrow. And probably not the next day either. I am back to hating to cook right now. I don't know if the link will work, but I have a rotary cheese grater. It works way fast and my hands don't touch the cheese. Tevokon Cheese Grater Cheese... www.amazon.com/dp/B0CJ1ZVLPY?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_shareETA: How are you cooking the Alfredo? Mine doesn't separate. That reminds me of an old Mouli grater I had back in the 60’s. But they have come a long way.

I'm watching a mini series on Netflix called You Are What You Eat: A Twin Experiment. They take sets of identical twins, and one eats a plant based diet and one a meat eater. They change their diet for 8 weeks and then measure their health in various ways. Between that and what I'm learning about industrial farming 🤐, I'm going to have to eat way more plants. I don't think I'll ever be 100% vegan, but I am going to try to eat less meat. If I am what I eat then I’m fast, cheap and easy. Hey, somebody had to post it

It was -17 when I got up. I decided I should get mail and make a coffee shop run. I made a run to get the mail out of the box with my gloves on. I swear I got frostbite in my fingers getting the mail. They didn't get warm until I was back home. The highway has one lane that is clear. The rest is mostly ice. When I looked there are no plows out this morning. It's ice so I don't think they can do much. I really had to slow down to turn on to the road where the coffee shop is located and again on my road. It was obvious the road the coffee shop is on had large drifts. Coffee shop must use someone with a great plow. It was down to cement. Every intersection has huge piles of snow. Approach slowly and crack window. Too many people in this little town plowed their snow in to the street and now those are blocks of ice. I misread the first sentence as I was 17 when I got up. Immediately thought I need to get her secret. Not back to 17 but 40 maybe.

Just put the baked ziti in the oven. I happened to notice on the package that the company that makes this meal is women-owned and operated. Did not know that when I bought it, but I am glad I bought it now. I like to support the women doing good things (and frankly, making my dinner easier tonight). I got the email I was expecting since Friday -- our Monday/Wednesday/Friday swim coach is leaving (has left, actually) so no early practice on those days. We had no practice tomorrow, due to the federal MLK Jr holiday. No idea what's next. The current head swim coach is NOT an early riser kind of guy, so if he is showing up at 6 instead of 5, that won't work for me. I will be switching my workout schedule around for this week, and checking into Silver Sneakers, which I have on my new Medicare plan. Maybe there is a gym with an indoor pool around? I know the Sneakers' hours are usually restricted to the less-busy periods, but I can maybe make that work.
Sneakers hours are not restricted at most of the gyms here. Only restrictions were not privy to a very few things like tanning, etc but otherwise free reign. Several of the hospital “rehab” programs also take silver sneakers. The two Y’s also accepted silver sneakers. But I know this may be a regional thing so take my post with a grain of salt. I did extensive research when I got silver sneakers card. We have a gym on every other corner it seems. Heck we even have two churches that have large gyms accept sneakers. Good luck.

Here's the debate in my head: Does a chainsaw purchase go under landscaping or home maintenance? Did you buy a matching freezer? Sorry my evil twin is online ! Back to the attic she goes.

I just want to slap people who tell me I should smile more. Especially if that comment comes from a guy. Nothing like being a Stepford wife. I was waiting outside the Columbia restaurant in Ybor and some galoot in a car drove by and told me to smile. I yelled back for him to go f himself and the people standing outside laughed. I would have told him to go f himself and flipped him off with both hands!

I do not know why mother nature hates us. Our high on Monday is -1. We're going to have a high of 28 on Tuesday. I know it's no comparison but we rarely have a LOW of 28 here. Stay safe and warm if possible. Yeah we’ve been updated to a high of 39! I’m so excited. I may drag out my heavy sweater in case I need to go out for any reason

We're going to have a high of 28 on Tuesday. I know it's no comparison but we rarely have a LOW of 28 here. Stay safe and warm if possible. If you add up our high temps for the next 5 days it equals 29. I have, no lie, not worn a winter coat yet this Winter. Today I am on layer three before even getting to the insulated coveralls. It's 14 out, but there are 40mph winds so nasty wind chill. I have also not touched a shovel or the snowblower yet since we started getting snow on Tuesday, so unless the Gods of Drifting were on my side I'm in for a lot of fun getting the driveway cleared this morning. Just waiting for my Fitbit to charge up a bit. Not going to get all this massive amount of exercise and steps without it being tracked. I don't own a winter coat. But I check weather again and we will be in the 50's by Wednesday or Thursday so all is well. I can't begin to imagine the amount of snow and cold I'm reading about but just hope every one stays warm, safe and doesn't lose power during all this cold.
