Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Where Many Paths and Errands Meet...

• First thread: New Zealander builds Hobbit hole
• Second thread: The New Hobbit Hole

• Fourth Thread: The Hobbit Hole IV - The Road Goes Ever On...

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

[Darksheare]

Umm.. sometimes.
It depends.

I got a zipped program that turns out to be an Excel program that I can't open. It's a database of OTR programs...

You can send it to me, I can open it, and resave it as a plain text file.

[RosieCotton]

I don't think there's a way to open Excel files without Excel...except maybe through a different spreadsheet program, though even that would probably come out skewed. You don't have anything like that on your computer?

[2Jedismom]

I found some of these...am munching on them. Proudly made in the USA! Got 'em at Dollar General for 49 cents.

[RosieCotton]

Ah...duh. Shoulda thought of that!

Good idea.

[2Jedismom]

OK! That's what I'll do. Do you still have my email address? I don't think I have yours any more.

[RosieCotton]

Heh...at first glance the smaller letters said soylent green.

Um...no thanks! Heh!

I got paid today, so I'm splurging. I have chicken legs, rice and veggies for dinner. The chicken is simmering now...should be done in half an hour or so.

AND there was ice cream on sale. I can't remember the last time I had ice cream! Probably around Christmas. OK, so that's like two weeks ago, but...

[2Jedismom]

I had Steve take me to Baskin Robbins the other day. He came in hauling a big old gallon of vanilla ice cream that tasted like you was suckin' on an ice cube. I said "THAT'S IT! I want two scoops of Jamoca Almond Fudge on a waffle cone!"

It was a splurge, but MMMMMM!

[Overtaxed]

What kind of fish? I think I can make out "herring", but I'm not sure.

[2Jedismom]

Heh...soylent green...

I'm so pleased they are made in the USA and so proud of it...check out their website!

Heh...I remember getting stuff like that growing up - nothing but ice crystals. Didn't make sense even calling it ice "cream". 'Tweren't creamy at ALL!

I got just Hood...but it's Grasshopper Pie. Not bad at all.

[2Jedismom]

Yes, herring...very tasty, really! It had a little group of jalepenos that I scraped off, but it flavored the entire can. Very tasty.

Gonna have to try the lousiana hot sauce ones...now that I've become addicted to the stuff as of late.

I want ice cream. I even want carbless ice cream. Stupid diet. Stupid grocery store, all out of my carbless Moose Tracks.

[RosieCotton]

It's been a few days since you last checked, hasn't it?

If I were to do that diet, I'd be outta luck. I've never seen low-carb or carbless ice cream here, ever.

[RosieCotton]

I like sardines with mustard.

I think we've had this conversation before, haven't we? ;-)

[Darksheare]

I want chocolate. Don't tell on me please.

[2Jedismom]

Yes, I think we have! LOL

Hobbits delighted in such things, if they were accurate: they liked to have books filled with things that they already knew, set out fair and square with no contradictions.

[JenB]

No, I checked yesterday. Maybe tomorrow they'll have some. It's really too cold for ice cream anyway.

[2Jedismom]

It seems though, that lately...in line with all the other bizzare changes that seem to be taking place in me, I can't get my food spicy enough! I have never even cared for the smell of lousiana hotsauce until a few weeks ago when Steve bought some on a whim for HIS eggs...I tried one drop. Now I fry my eggs and just drowned them in the stuff.

Then the other night we went to Popeyes and I discover they have the hotsauce in little packets! I douse my chicken in it!

If this is peri-menopause, I'm all for it, baby!

[RosieCotton]

I like Tabasco on eggs! Usually only put it on scrambled eggs, though. I don't remember why.

We never made it to Popeyes while I was in Florida. *snif*
