what's that sammy
12:24 am
sammysmom

since hubby is in palliative care we get little sleep... either walter or myself or one of the kids is with him all night... at about 2 am a few nights ago, walter saw a car pull up in front of our house and a man got out and was looking at the fire hydrant
12:24 am
VolleymomDee

yw
12:25 am
VolleymomDee

that's odd
12:26 am
sammysmom

it was quite dark. he could not determine the type or color of car but said the man seemed to have a tuber or hose or something and he touched the top of the fire hydrant with it and then got back in his car and drove up the street slowly.
12:27 am
rururocks

that's strange
12:27 am
VolleymomDee

very curious
12:29 am
sammysmom

when he told me, i figured that this was od, i called the police. they were here in 3 minutes... checked out the huydrand and could see nothing wrong and were stumped also.. but a few minutes later,, there was another police car cheching from the othe4r diretion... then 4 of them... after 20 minutes or so they concluded that there was nothing apparently amiss so they all left, assuring us thet they would be checking the area closely for a few days

It has been very dry in the middle this year and all the animals come to the road for water - bit like running the gauntlet. In northern NSW we also have wild goats and on the way to Darwin we have unfenced cattle stations.

word to the wise - don't ever, ever mess up on the USPS website and need a refund from them. they claim you can get one, but it can take up to three months to receive it. i have yet to get mine, am hoping that eventually i will in fact get it, but wonder if the long time is a trick, they figure most people will forget by then and never follow up?

Ruru, when will you be in NY?
11:47 am
Dorens

it does... and I never got around to getting tickets,... then thought it was too late... then got a groupon offer... probably will be the worst seats in the house, but at least I will be seeing it without paying $150 or more per ticket..
11:47 am

11:48 am

That's always a plus Dorens. Seats might not be that bad, depends on the theatre.
11:48 am
Dorens

Saw an extraordinary film the other day.. The Attack, which is not being shown widely, only art theaters, etc. It was disturbing, so a laugh riot play with David Hyde Pierce will be terrific

11:51 am
rururocks

oh.. sounded like a terror flick
11:53 am
Dorens

no no no, i never see those.. or suspense stuff or any kind of horror or gratuitous violence.... But once in a while if there is a teeny bit of violence necessary to move the plot, I can handle it. I didn't know much about this one,, but reliable sources said it was a "must see"

Snow are you kiding its like 100 degreses
3:39 pm

3:39 pm
rocky12

I'm leaving on the 23 so i'll make it there in time
3:39 pm

and at 100, you can be sure there wont be snow. So good call xD
3:40 pm
rocky12

I hate the heat
3:41 pm
moonwoof

In general, so do I. But I still prefer camping in the warmer months than the snow.
3:42 pm
rocky12

I would love to go camping in the snow
3:42 pm
rocky12

But school gets in the way grr
3:43 pm
moonwoof

School's important tho. So may as well get it out of the way so you can camp in the winter ^^
3:44 pm
rocky12

True when i live on my own or have my own family i'll be camping every winter we get a chance to
3:45 pm
moonwoof

Well try it first before you say that... it's actually pretty different than other camping.
3:45 pm
moonwoof

*every* thing gets wet and stays that way. Firewood, clothes, you. Everything lol
3:45 pm
rocky12

True but its soo much more nice out in the woods during winter
3:46 pm
moonwoof

Still. It's good to try it and compare.
3:46 pm
rocky12

I hear
3:46 pm

Oh agreed. It's gorgeous and quiet and lots of good things. Just not my favorite camping ^^

4:00 pm
rocky12

from marron 5
4:00 pm
rocky12

Bruno mars is good
4:01 pm
moonwoof

He's ok... But it really depends on the song. There's just something about the pitch of his voice that can get to me.
4:02 pm
moonwoof

My musical taste leans more towards ska and not very much towards pop

Psh. Your inner four year old doesnt know what my older and more experienced four year old does ^^
4:18 pm

I actually do kinda draw a line at music I cant understand. Country kinda falls into that realm along with a chunk of opera and pretty much anything by celine dion lol
4:18 pm
rocky12

But were both 4 so how can your inner 4year old be older than my inner 4 year old lol your logic is flawed
4:19 pm
moonwoof

nah. My logic is humourous. There's a difference ^^
4:19 pm

Your logic is special not hurmorous well mabye both lol

6:13 pm

mmmmmm!!..jumbo battered tiger shrimp!!..hope it does not go to my heart right away:)
6:16 pm
Buggie

yeah, my cat always has to be in the same room as me (except the bathroom, he's terrified of water). He even sleeps on the bed with me...
6:16 pm
lilliann

That sounds lovely Crossy, all i've had today was a half a crusty roll with some pate on, 3 mini beef wellington things that i've never seen before and were quite tasty and a few strawberries and a glass of white wine.i wasn't overly hungry today as too humid
6:17 pm
crosshair

we had a storm front move through and cool things off by teh degrees
6:17 pm
Buggie

battered shrimp? never tried that. Today I made beef bourguignon, the first time I've made something that simmers for so long, came out great
6:17 pm
lilliann

mine does too Buggie and she will come into the bathroom and whilst we are sitting on the toilet she has to rub her legs and head against our legs, but we have to watch her as she wants to jump out of the upstairs windows.my husband had to save her once as she was on the roof
6:18 pm
crosshair

ten degrees*
6:19 pm
lilliann

That sounds delicicious Buggie. i love beef Bourginon, and in the winter especially i love to ccok stews nd casseroles that take a few hours to cook, the meat is always tender and very tasty
6:20 pm
lilliann

Did you get a storm Crossy, or did it bypass you?
6:21 pm
crosshair

we got the storm.heavy rain,tornado warnings,hail,the whole 9 yeards
6:22 pm
lilliann

we've had really humid weather for 2 weeks which we're definitely not use to getting up north and they told us last week that we were in for storms and thunder, but we never got any
6:22 pm
Buggie

yeah, I do casseroles but usually cook them for about an hour as my meat is usually tender anyway. I keep back any left over casserole juice and freeze it to use as stock, which is what I used for the beef tonight (duck casserole juice spiced with a little cinnamon, cloves and ginger)
6:22 pm
lilliann

Oh God.i hope you are all ok there then
6:23 pm
crosshair

yup.all is fine.some downed trees,a bit of flooding here and there,but mostly ok
6:24 pm
lilliann

Sounds lovely Buggie.i'll have to think about freezing my casserole juices.i've never thought of putting cinnamon and cloves in with meat juices
6:24 pm
TraderKate

6:26 pm
lilliann

Bye kate, tc :)
6:29 pm
Buggie

well, I used a "4 spices" blend (cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger). I put it in the duck casserole, was suprised how strong it was, but gave the duck a honey taste, and then reusing it for the beef meant it wasn't too strong
6:29 pm
crosshair

it is not sx in a canoe that is he problem,it is trying to figure out where to store the paddles that is the problem
6:29 pm
crosshair

sex
6:33 pm
lilliann

I like ginger with hoisin sauce,and garlic with pork loins.leave to marinate as long as possible.24 is best but even a couple of hours will give it a great flavour.one of my next door neighbours hates pork but he had that and he loved it and now his mam has to make iot.But i must admit, with cloves, nutmeg and cinnamon i would use them more for puddings, not that i make many anymore
6:34 pm
lilliann

Ginger is a very strong root vegetable to use, i like to juice it with apples ,but i only use a tiny bit as it is overpowering
6:35 pm
lilliann

Mmmm, that could be difficult Crossy as you never know where the oars could end up!!! :D
6:37 pm
lilliann

You're up late Buggie. Whereabouts in France do you live?
6:37 pm
Buggie

hmmm, never tried marinating with hoisin sauce... and yes, I usually use ginger in curries, cloves I rarely use apart from bread sauce, and nutmeg I mainly use for white sauce (for moussaka and things) or soups. the casserole was a case of wanting to try something different...
6:39 pm
Buggie

I live in Poitiers, a couple of hours northeast of Bordeaux, and I'm always up late, not a morning person ;)

6:47 pm
Buggie

the main alcohols are Pineau des Charentes and of course Cognac
6:48 pm
Buggie

trying to think what wine there is around here... not much of a wine drinker myself, though I know to avoid the local wine, haut poitou...
6:48 pm
lilliann

That's what i was trying to remember...Pineau des Charentes which isn't a wine.i had a few of them one year when i could walk and at the end i couldn't walk...lol
6:49 pm
Buggie

oh pineau is great, especially a good white pineau chilled on a hot summer day
6:50 pm

hi folks
6:50 pm
lilliann

My parents friends had some and gave me a bottle to bring home. i had it for years as i didn't want to get a hangover like it again!! i ended up putting it down the drain and it was a fantastic drain cleaner :)
6:50 pm
Buggie

hey welki
6:50 pm
lilliann

Hi Welki:)
6:51 pm
Buggie

haha, such a waste of an excellent bottle though
6:51 pm
lilliann

What a waste!!
6:51 pm
lilliann

well, i did taste some first and it didn't taste so good and was all brown and bitty, so the drain got it
6:52 pm
lilliann

It was 15 years old
6:53 pm
lilliann

How are you Welki?
6:53 pm
Buggie

ah, I don't know how long it keeps, bottles never last long enough ;o)
6:54 pm
lilliann

not for me either but after the 'Hangover from Hell' i didn't touch it again :D
6:54 pm
welki

doing well, thanks - liking that the weekend is here :)
6:55 pm
welki

i think i tried pineau de charantes years ago - is it a little sweet and "thicker" than wine?
6:56 pm
lilliann

i would try it again now.i drank it, because at the time i wasn't a big wine drinker, and i was told that pineau, was similar to martini, which i s what i drank.but i only liked the martini rosso, so i had a few of these which are normally in little glasses but our family friend who was from cornwall was giving me wine glasses full of it, so 4 later, i was plastered :)
6:56 pm
lilliann

It is welki and i hope you have a nice weekend :)
6:57 pm
Buggie

yeah, sweeter and thicker than wine
6:57 pm
welki

i think i liked it - maybe i should look for a bottle
6:58 pm
Buggie

though you often come across home brewed stuff which is much stronger
6:59 pm
welki

i used to go to a nice restaurant and they'd give me glass of something to go with my appetizer or dinner (so that would be for some things, wine with others - was a nice place)

7:06 pm
lilliann

Night Buggie, it's been lovely chatting to you, tc hin and try not to drink too much pineau and eau de vie :D
7:07 pm

I don't know what's it's made of Welki, but it sopunds like it could be like Poteen or Moonshine.probably very similar
7:11 pm
