Good Morning!

It's a coffee morning to match the clouds overhead. I may even need oatmeal and toast to help me warm up.

Morning, all. I'm enjoying another perfect day on this August Long Weekend, and getting ready to fire up the smoker to do some ribs. Meanwhile, upgrading to the release version of Windows 8.

Peet's Anniversary Breakfast Blend

Blue Goo milkshake from Mister Goodies!

ProfCrash · 08-04-2012, 06:06 PM

Milk with my burger and fries. A Dr Pepper earlier. Lucas is falling asleep on my chest.

No cup right now, but a popsicle because it's too hot today

A time to be reaping
A time to be sowing
The green leaves of summer
Are calling me home "
Twas so good to be young then
In the season of plenty
When the catfish were jumping
As high as the sky

A time just for planting
A time just for ploughing
A time to be courting
A girl of your own "
Twas so good to be young then
To be close to the earth
And to stand by your wife
At the moment of birth

Good morning, all. It's a peaceful Sunday summer morning that I'll start with a cup of Taylors of Harrogate's "Yorkshire" tea, pita with hummus and babaganoush, and a few Kalamata olives while watching the breeze blow the lemongrass leaves on the verandah. Had a lovely ride yesterday so we'll probably stay around the 'hood' today and just relax. Still hot out... I'm ready for Fall...

Back home after a lovely long lunch with friends, a perfect Sunday. Nothing in my cup.

@ProfCrash: Soooo gorgeous!

Stitchawl · 08-05-2012, 09:54 AM

A glass of Bombay Sapphire, a video of 'The Eiger Sanction,' and a bowl of popcorn!

Nice!

Another hot sticky summer day. Tall glass full of Pepsi One & ice cubes. Debating on when to mow the lawn. Dabbing more Calomine lotion on spider bites I got last night sitting on the back steps after taking a walk. Guess the spiders were thirsty too.

ProfCrash · 08-05-2012, 11:05 AM

Skim milk with breakfast. Lucas had a bad night and is struggling with sleeping. Mom is contemplating beer at 11 am.

I can feel the spider bite pain. I have three gnat bites. The one on the leg developed a rash bad enough that I went to the Doctor.

They say don't go on Wolverton Mountain
If you're looking for a wife
'Cause Clifton Clowers has a pretty young daughter
He's mighty handy with a gun and a knife

Her tender lips are sweeter than honey
And Wolverton Mountain protects her there
The bears and the birds tell Clifton Clowers
If a stranger should enter there

All of my dreams are on Wolverton Mountain
I want his daughter for my wife
I'll take my chances and climb that mountain
Though Clifton Clowers, he might take my life

Good morning, everyone! It's the start of another week, the second one of August. (This happens every year, by the way.) I have a cup of East India Company's "Assam" tea to wake me up, and a couple of Vietnamese Spring Rolls to perk up my pallet.

I never tire of this movie! In 2002 we were motorcycle touring in Switzerland, and I decided that "I" needed to climb the North face of the Eiger myself. So with my wife as witness, I, Stitchawl, did climb almost 2 meters up the face of that mountain. I felt no compulsion to try for the summit 3,968 meters further up. After all, it's the journey not the destination, right?

I commiserate with your pain! I have a severe allergy to spider bites, and they blow up like plums on me. Hurt like hell! I guess I'm lucky that they don't affect my breathing. I know that spiders eat other bugs, but as far as I'm concerned, the only good spider is a dead spider. Besides... they're ugly...

I think I need more tea...

The sun is finally out, it is warmed up outside, and I am enjoying some cold tea.

Laundry will have to wait.

poohbear_nc · 08-05-2012, 08:12 PM

Pink fizz tonight (Campari, club soda, and crushed ice in a tall glass). No spiders! I have huge red welts on my arm but no pain - guess it was an extra potent bite last night. Calomine is a wonder drug!

dreams · 08-05-2012, 09:02 PM

I hate spiders! I hope the welts go down soon.

water in my cup and just getting ready to get an ice cream sandwich out of the freezer.
