Yes Gran I can see it. I can almost drink the water; I hope my monitor doesn´t spring a leak

[grannie9]

Oh good. I think I"ve found out what I've been doing wrong.. snicker..and snort..

Umm.. using duct tape when silk works just as well without the chafing?

Morning Gran, Westie, Loddie, All

Thanks for those pics of the Ocean -- all of them. They have got to be nice vacation spots.

Tons of work today, I'll be lurking...

[lodwick]

A day of freeping has lead to a day of work?

Good luck with it out there.

We may eventually thaw out today - I hope.

Afternoon Dog.. I'm glad you're working..because I am too. Made hot chicken sandwiches for lunch.. have a lemon cake in the oven, and have my chicken all cooked and shredded for chicken enchilladas for tonight.

Had a swim, and might just catch a little nap before making frosting and enchilladas later..

Oopps, there goes the oven... ;)

Hope the oven didn't do what mine did.

Ooooh Jeepers.

You are making me hungry, I bet you bake a mean lemon cake.

Last night was Chile rellenos at our house, my younger daughter has an aptitude for learning her mother's receipes, which are handed down 3d generation (at least) now. These are somewhat beyond restaurant fare. One kind is done with dark dried mulato peppers, softened, and filled with a sauteed hamburger / eggs / spices. The second is the more usual green Pasilla chili peppers stuffed with Mexican and Mozzarella cheeses. These are dipped in whipped egg white. The third treat is the combined whipped egg whites and sauteed burger fried into little silver dollar sized patties called tortas (or little turtles). these are all cooked up in a 12" deep skilled in a sauce of tomato, onion and garlic (light on the garlic). This is served with Mexican rice and refried beans and tortillas.

Ice cream (or as we had instead -- angel food cake, strawberries && whipped cream) is usually served afterwards.

My younger loves the tortas, and takes them out after they are cooked and before they go into the sauce and saves twenty or so for her school lunch. I came home hungry and snarfed half of them before realizing I was eating into her personal stash, but there were still plenty more in the pan. Probably will be dining on that again tonight, we left half of it in the pan.

I'll bet you do well with the chicken enchiladas too, that is another staple around our house.

Cheers.

Programming is funny business. It's a bit like music composition. You get your program running, it is like listening to music. Finally you hear the whole thing play. Then you take a walk and think how sorry the composer is, and come back with ideas for how you should have done it.

Know what I mean?

I like Mark Twain. He came in on Halley's comet and he left on Halley's comet. Those were the dates of his birth and death. He prophesied his own passing.

Programming is so far beyond me, I cannot tell you.

A mockingbird just landed on the window sill under the covered porch - perhaps a warm-up break before returning to his search for insects?

Back to technology and me: the lowly telephone is still an instrument of fascination to me. How do they make words go over the lines?

Today is the tenth anniversary of the first WTC bombing...

I bet you bake a mean lemon cake.

I bet she does too, Sundog. I have to ask Gran for her recipe....

[Sundog]

What is made by God is a miracle. What is made by man is mundane. The two are separated by a gulf so vast it takes the bible to adequately describe it. A mockingbird just landed on the window sill... You know what? I'm sure that mockingbird thinks, and no computer will ever do that.

I could use a piece of grannie's lemon cake right about now.

Did you see today's APOD?

This is in Canyonlands, and down in those canyons are hundreds of pictograph panels.

[grannie9]

Isn't that beautiful? Is that near you?

I am waiting on the Enchilladas... They're looking good, but I'd like to sit down in your kitchen.. Yum, yum... ;)

I loooove Mex. food..

I used to make my own tortillas before you could buy them locally.. That's how much I love Mex. food.. ;)

[grannie9]

My dear.. if I could send you one I would.. It came out nice and high and looks delicious..

I used some of the fresh lemons from Deano's lemon tree. I froze the rest of the juice from them in ice cube trays for later using.. Those lemons are the size of a huge Navel orange.

I'm sure you can get some just as good at home..;)
