what did we do in the dark ages when we couldn't cyber-nag?

My dad's words of advise for DH when we got married 'if you dont want a nagging wife - do what she asks the first time' so it is not my fault I nag but his!!!!

 

[TiggerInNY]

OK everyone. I'm going to attempt to go to sleep now. Hopefully DH will sleep tonight, too and not keep me up all night again. I'm getting too old for this stuff. Either that or I'm gonna pull a Lucy & Ricky thing. Get two separate beds and be done with it. Now that's using your head Ethel.

Nite nite now. See you all in the morning. Oh, no I won't. I have to take my FIL to the doctor's and that's gonna take all day. Hopefully I won't come home to 100 pages of posts.

Cool, an unexpected TOP shared with nagging wives and their lazy husbands!!!

The only thing that comes immediately to mind is a loose power cable. Check to make sure it is securely connected to both the back of the TiVo and whatever you have it plugged into for power (6-strip, wall, etc.) Theoretically, there could be a short in the power cable that just happens to get hit by the cat as it walks by which causes the TiVo to reboot, but that is not very likely. You could try connecting the TiVo power directly to the wall, or you could try an uninterruptable power supply (like what is available for computers as a battery-backup kind of thing...available at best buy). Those power supply things can be kind of expensive tho.

Maybe your cat wants the TiVo to record something else??

Green chile is generally roasted, peeled, and then chopped. Then it can be put on pretty much anything you can think of...pizza, eggs, burgers, potatoes, pasta sauce, chicken, etc. You can also make it into a sauce for enchiladas and burritos. Green chile sauce would be similar to salsa, but maybe not as chunky? It is hard to describe...the local grocery stores have huge sections devoted to chile and salsa around here. Even Costco carries at least 6 different kinds of chile and salsa!

The heat can vary depending on the batch of chile, so it can be hotter than jalepenos at times. Maybe a jar of the green stuff will find its way onto the ship...

Green Chile is roasted and peeled...yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I can still remember when my mom and her ma would get a bushel of green chile and spend the whole day roasting them and nothing better in the whole work than the smell that filled the kitchen on that day. I remember as a kid, getting a fresh green chile throwing it on the stove (woodstove with iron stove top) roasting it, and peeling it and throwing it on a fresh tortilla with some salt...OK no fair now I want some

 

[dzneprincess]

PS you would probably most likely see this "green chiles" sold in your grocery store only they are called anaheim peppers...at least that is how they term them here in GA...

ANG you guys okay? and Julia? and Everyone else in GA? We just had a rough spell and were under a tornado watch

You've got some splaining to do.......

Yooooo Yes!! The smell of roasting green chilis is one of the BEST smells in the world!!!


A word of caution; When peeling chilies don't rub or pick your nose!!!
