Good afternoon Schumi. I like Mexican food too. Sometimes hot and spicy. I also like English tea. Well, just about all tea, except never really like green tea. More the black and white teas, and fruit tea.

And, since it is Wednesday, hump day indeed, Hey Keisha -- yeah, it's Wednesday:

and just so Keisha needs this:

and with that, it's a beautiful sunny day. A lovely sunrise to see. No matter, it's 58 degrees, with a high of 60, but so nice to see the sun. Enjoy this first Wednesday of May homies!

Came to say I'm awake but need to go back to bed

Thinking of all my homies here

Guess that makes me the one in this group that has the most kids

Rest up, Mac, we've got your back...don't want anyone taking it, like they did your knee!

Hi All!

Eggs Benedict was mentioned and my mouth started watering. We have a diner up here that does Eggs Benedict the way I like it.. with REAL AMERICAN BACON! They also have a version with a cheddar cheese sauce instead of the hollendaise. I sometimes get two, one with each sauce.. NOM NOM NOM NOM!!!

Needed my camel fix. Lots of good ones today . Nawahaha to fake humps.

When i was cleaning closet earlier this week, stumbled across a Joe Camel cache of crap the brand used to give out as premiums. Apparently, I've had thing going for camels for some time lol. Awful marketing tie to entice the youngins but some of the stuff is a real hoot. My dad would smoke them & pall malls - unfiltered. Didn't matter much, a coal miner, his lungs were toast regardless.

Good prosciutto is difficult to find here except in specialty stores. Not a fresh mozzarella fan but it's everywhere these days. Remember when you had to have somebody visit jersey/NY and bring it back.

Running good portion of day again, it's cold here & will be for some time it appears. Cannot believe we may have to fire up the boiler again, house is getting chilly.

Mac u rest up! Rest of you hut-hut, wasting daylight

Hey, part of my town is called the Italian market. No need to go to NY or NJ. Though, my Jewish deli used to go to NY to get bagels. People waited at 6am for the still hot bagels from the bags in the back of the van. Aww, come on, it's only 10am and already thinking what's for lunch. Yes, and American bacon. Yes, please. Ok, a DD run maybe. Their bacon is actually pretty good the other day. Le sigh. It's only Wednesday.

And hey, family members smoked and got some junk too. Not camels though. Blue and white box. Don't see any free stuff from the cigarettes any more.

So pretty, yet cool. And a soggy Friday is on tap. So tired of gray and rain almost every other day. Stay warm Keisha. Yeah, AC on the other day, heater on for tonight. 36 is the low tonight. Um, what??? May........

Sending more good thoughts and prayers Mac.

Have to admit, American bacon doesn't quite do it for us.....much prefer good old British bacon with real rashers not just what we call streaky......we only use it really to baste a turkey or chicken with........

Bacon and Tea are the only things we don't really like in America (we do eat the American bacon though) .......everything else we love............as our waistlines show......

Really? I would have thought good prosciutto would be common as muck over there.......we have some fabulous deli's pretty close by, so maybe we're spoiled......and they give great samples......... Sun is shining here too, but it's a bit chilly out of it........washing all dried on line though.........


DH just taken car to garage to get tyre sorted.......warning light came up when he was coming home saying low tyre pressure, checked it and found a large nail stuck in it courtesy of our recent builders........quick visit to Mercedes garage will correct that......always something.........

Happy Wednesday............

Would so be nice to say hi to you and your boys. I have been looking at the resorts and looks like it is going to be busy during the time we are there. My grandchildren are so ready for their vacation.

I have made a few reservations for sit down meals. Last year when we went the line was out the door and there was a long wait for a table for people wanting to eat at Mytho's for lunch. I was happy I made our reservation.




Yes, Cinco de mayo is Friday. I do like Mexican food.

Have to say eggs Benedict is one of my favorite breakfasts. Don't make it very often, but do enjoy getting it at my favorite breakfast restaurant.

Get well soon Mac. Something to make you smile.

90 here today, front pushes through tomorrow's and then only 70 on Friday.

Rub it in! LOL That will take us a couple of months before we hear 90 degrees. We should be close to 70 on Monday. Then another front is coming, so more rain. Friday is going to have around 2 inches of rain. Puddles are us. Oh, and bad hair day again. That wind!

 

[macraven]

I'm awake and craving bacon

At this time of the day I'm sure all my homies here have eaten mom's share

So all of youse are grounded
No tv for a day
And no beer for a week
( knew the beer would make you sit up and listen)

Have no idea bout weather
But mr Mac said today is great and rain starts Thursday and Friday will be nasty and heat goes back on

Had the heat pump on yesterday afternoon thru the night
He put my electric blanket on my bed as I was so cold

Good man

Celebrated,well, should really say we were together on our 38 yr anniversary in the hospital Friday

I have no memory of it
Lol

But will have a better one next year

Hope all are doing fine
Had a dream chickens in my bed last night and I was worried the cats would come jump on the bed to eat them

As I was Ned to wake up, MonyK came to my room chased the cats out and took the chicks with her

MonyK saved the day for those babies

 

[schumigirl]

I'll do you some bacon mac......we have plenty........


Was out with friend tonight and I had bacon wrapped scallops just for the bacon.....lol.........we ordered 5 little appetisers between us.......nice.

Chilly tonight........off to bed soon.........

Nothing like freaking you out when under the influence of prescribed narcotics

Wished you lived next door so I could come over when I smelled the bacon

Lol
