What is in your cup? - Page 1480

Blue spring Oolong. I just made bacon and eggs for breakfast with a toasted English muffin. I made extra bacon for turkey sandwiches. The hubby made a practice bird for Thursday so we have a ton of turkey.

Yum, turkey enchiladas. Leftover turkey is great for that too.

It makes sense that the Day Care would want to make sure that what is served has not been tampered. Safety issues probably.

My cup is empty now, so time to go make some more coffee. It's cold and wet outside. I guess, I need to get household chores done.

Peppermint Mochas at Starbucks. Yummy

In Cairo. Lipton tea and mezze; baba ganoush.
I saw Coptic Cairo today, bazaar, Tahrir square and.....an almost empty beautiful Mseum of archelogy, which is the most beautiful I ever saw. I walk the city on my own and it goes well.

edit; shaky wifi, though.

I'm glad you arrived OK and it sounds like you are already having a great time.

Poached eggs on my plate and some fresh coffee in my cup as I do laundry.

Got my mojo working, but it just won't work on you
Got my mojo working, but it just won't work on you
I wanna love you so bad till I don't know what to do

I'm going down to Louisiana to get me a mojo hand
I'm going down to Louisiana to get me a mojo hand
I'm gonna have all you women right here at my command

Got my mojo working, but it just won't work on you

Good morning, everyone! Sun's up, 2nd day in a row, and I can't decide if I should walk or ride! Yesterday's ride was perfect, but over roads we've ridden before. If I ride today it will be to new areas... Looks good for some Fall foto fun! Big mug of Ahmad's "English Breakfast" tea, a mixed greeeeen salad with crab and balsamic vinegar for breakfast, God is in his heaven, and all seems right in this world! The Japanese Maple leaves are almost blood-red in some areas, and so vivid I have to DE-saturate the settings in my cameras!

Two turkeys in the same year? Wow! Two turkeys in a decade would be almost more than I could bear. Other than a big turkey drumstick once every 5-6 years, I can easily do without this bird on my table.

Sounds delightful! I wish I could see it all too! Enjoy!

Have fun. Hope it's warmer than here.

Red wine in my glass. A rather watery little number that I won't be buying again.

Dang! This quote won't embed the picture! I love that mie12.jpg. I'd like it on my wall at about 3 feet by 2 feet. And a wall big enough for a picture that size...

That is one gorgeous picture, Stitchawl. Thanks for sharing.

Finally sitting down again! I went to the opposite side (from my usual hangout on the eastern side. Today was the western mountains called 'Arashiyama,) of Kyoto today to look for red and yellow trees... I took over 400 photographs.... I guess you could say I found some.

Now sitting down with a mug of Keemun tea and dumping my memory cards into the computer to see if any of the photos are worth keeping...

If you do find a wall, and need a higher resolution copy of the photo to blow up into a poster, just let me know. The ones I post here are only 72dpi and 6" high to save bandwidth.

How about a version with good enough resolution for a screen saver? I love the one I currently have (a picture that Javed posted some time ago), but this would make an excellent alternative.

Black coffee in my cup. It's early but I went to bed at some ridiculously early time last night. We had visitation (I suppose called a "wake" in some circles) last night for my mother, and the funeral is today. All of the family finally got here - my nephew and his wife returned from Thailand yesterday afternoon. We had a lot of talking and laughing and eating, and it struck us how much Mom would have enjoyed it.

I'm coping well, I think, but I'm TIRED. For months I've slept lightly, and not very well, listening out for Mom. It seems like since she's been gone I just lose consciousness at night, and sleep very deeply. I hope I catch up on my sleep soon, because I feel ridiculous yawning at 7 p.m.! Anyway, a tough day today, I think. And then more sleep.
