Random DIY mixing and More

[kas122461]

Thanks! I’ve tried it, can’t decide whether I like it or not.

I have not mixed it sense I tried the NYA Nana Butter, which replaced it as my ADV. The Nana Butter recipe pretty much maintains its flavor over time, the banana does fade a bit in it, but it is still good.
The GB ICS recipe, does something weird if it steeps too long, which disappointed me, because I prefer to mix larger batches of my favorites.

Good morning !
I think I am going to try something with a little bit of cafe latte and some vanilla bean ice cream and see what happens.

Our AC went out again, had to turn it off around 6pm. It got to 85 in the house before we turned it on again at 11:30pm and now it's working and the temp is dropping slowly. At least we can get some sleep!

Wow, I feel for you. I can't imagine a worse time or place for you to have unreliable air conditioning. I hope it gets resolved soon for you.

 

[DavidOck]

Happy Sunday, all.

Our (relative) heat wave continues, mid 80s and higher for the next few days. Uh, what's air conditioning?

Seems dressing to go out is a bigger problem than I thought...

Good luck with the concrete. I been there and done that. Didn’t have much fun.

Well, the husband is outside crying. That seems ominous. I mean he cries a lot at various intervals, but this morning seems particularly ominous. I am going to bathe pretty soon here and get going.

I can do inside stuff I mean the husband autocratically determined I was gonna remove my items from the spare room, and vacuum it and "not enter it again." He said, "I will know because the carpet is disturbed. LOL I vacuumed it in a square pattern to mess with him. Then I asked, "Master this house servant is ready for you to inspect." He was like, "Oh you went with the square pattern, nice." LOL I was like, "I am to please."

I get my moments of amusement where I find them.

Nope not looking forward to the concrete. I do want to bathe very soon. I keep saying that but gotta finish the coffee.

In a mere three days, the husband can start acting like a human again. Gonna be nice.

Wait, @hittman you got college daughters and Disney Daughters? How many years to retirement again?

Unless it's just some HS "I love Disney thing" in which case, bleugh. I hate Marvel Comics and I hate Disney. To be fair, like, I was little in France where there was a cartoon called "Ulysses" and it was based on the Homer poem but set in space but like the Sirens were there, and like the dad was always gone from the mothership I remember it vividly. It really helped when like reading the Homer version let me tell you. I get a certain amount of mnemonics are needed to memorize a poem of that nature but if I had to read "Rosy fingered dawn" one more time it would not have been cool.

There was also some chick one my mom used to let me watch when she was cooking one time (she hated Barbies too) and like it must not have registered much because like I don't remember it. All I know about Disney is there is recent, horribly popular, possibly Hispanic princess of the same name and I never knew another "My first name" before recent times and now I hear it all over and EVERYONE wants to misspell it.

I DO remember my aunt buying me a Barbie for Christmas on the down low so my mom couldn't do anything but she DID do stuff, like she paid my brother to dismember it. LOL gotta love parents.

OH my god I am so TIRED. This is fortunate because I just realized I forgot to put Ambien in my med box--- all of it. So I guess we are going to see how tired I am gong to GET.

Course I would be able to tell my pdoc I have not been taking it because I will not be able to be, and he could be all happy.

Except I don't so much care I mean he's gonna be my pdoc for 3 more months max I might dream more with no Ambien although FRANKLY IDK seems to me that might be more than I could take right now real life got me whipped.

I am going to learn all about concrete tomorrow. I have not asked but I bet it's horrible, hot and particularly dehydrating.

IDK I think I could run a construction crew now, not effectively, But ,I could talk my way into it.

My youngest is 19. She wanted to see Hamilton that they were showing on Disney plus. I like Marvel and have seen just about all their movies. That’s why the inhumans show sounded interesting. We hadn’t seen the Hamilton play so that’s why we paid for a month of it but figured I may as well get some use out of it. There’s also some Star Wars stuff on there too.

 

[stols001]

Well good. I know some people love Marvel stuff and whatnot. The husband could not get enough of the "Iron Fist."

If I could stomach another paid subscription it would probably be to YouTube music.

I was just scared you had a seven year old running around, LOL.

I saw Hamilton twice in NYC and trust me when I say that $5.99 for a month of Disney Plus, even if Hamilton is all you watch, it is a tremendous bargain!

 

[PJReid]

Sorry, duplicate post.

 

[FranC]

I’m assuming the Lion King is Disney. I liked that one. Not into the Marvel stuff. My favorite shows usually have to contain some blood and guts.,,....LOL

It's really not too much concrete.

That's what I was thinking when this home owner hired me to remove his old walkway. It took me (and a sledge hammer and a pry bar) 25-30 hours to remove it. They had another company put in a real nice looking new walkway though. When the concrete mixer truck showed up, I made sure to tell the operator to make sure to not put in more than 4 - 5 depth inches of concrete, for whoever's sake if they had to break up the new sidewalk someday..

That makes my back hurt looking at it

Darn it all. That recipe you posted about has got me wanting a cup of coffee, @PJReid. I haven't had one since November 2017.

I quit drinking coffee and all forms of caffeine in October 2018. I don’t miss the caffeine rush and jitters, then afternoon crash, drink more, then trouble sleeping at night. I drink non caffeinated herbal tea now. I had no idea how much it was affecting me until I quit.

I made that one chocolate tobacco with a coffee flavor in it and it was awful. If I ever use coffee again it will be in tiny amounts. But I have no desire at the moment.

Drinking coffee never bothered me but I stick to just my morning 1/2 pot. My oldest son drinks coffee all day. He’s a TT driver.

This was a few years ago, actually, and my back still hurts.. They paid me well and fed me lunch just about every day and all the iced tea I could drink.

The acai/berry croissant has great flavor, thanks @FranC ! But either I need to steep a bit longer, or add more WF croissant because is either so subtle or non-existent.

Oh good. Glad you like it. Not sure if more steeping will help. You may have to add some for your tastes.
