I hear ya Sara. Not much one can do about the weather anyway. Just embrace what you're given and move on I guess. It'll be warm come July. :laugh:
Have a good day, hope it flies for you. :)

Good morning Dale. :wub:
Hoping your later check in means you slept well. :)

Off to find some breakfast and get moving.
I'll be on and off today. ;)

Haha yep, sometimes summer takes forever to get here and is over before ya know it. Have a good day.

Good morning lurkers:wub::wub::wub:

38 with a mix of snow and rain here:confused:

No pineapple upside down cake here... but... I did make lemon bars though:p
Any white angel food cake mix, stir in a can of lemon pie filling by hand, being careful not to over stir, and bake at 350 for about 20 minutes, let it cool and sprinkle with a bit of powdered sugar. They are quite good and only takes the 3 ingredients!:D

Good morning Paul, Bobbi, & OBG. :wub:

Bobbi, that sounds awesome!! :drool:

@kad2371 - I'm thinking that you're a coffee lover. I'm thinking about getting a French Press. Is there one you like? Also, a burr grinder. I'm just at the looking around stage. :)
...anyone who has imput, please add too.
I just remember that Kad is a coffee lover.

    This one is a good burr grinder. There are better ones out there, but unless you are trying to use an espresso machine this one is very good.

    If you don't mind stainless steel, this is a good French Press. Some people really want glass, but I like this one.

    SS looks like a good one :thumbs:but I would want a hand grinder and 50 lbs of good beans to go with it,that way all you would need is a small fire and a little water for fresh coffee :2c:

    Yes, I want stainless, not glass. Thank you very much!!
    I have a small Krupps (older) single blade grinder, but my nephew said I need a burr grinder.

    He's also bought coffee 3 different times from these people....he said the coffee is amazing.
    Have you heard of them??
    He said he's been mixing medium roast equally with dark roast...I know that's all just an individual preference thing though.

    I was debating getting a hand grinder as a back up.
    ...you forgot a fine mesh strainer. :lol:

    Yep.
    I have one of these, so I'm good, worst case scenario.
