I got some cherry jello because the glycine in it is supposed to make me sleep better.

Lunch was an all-American burger on the grill. (Two, actually, his and hers.)
 
Dinner will be chicken tikka masala, rice, and salad.

Lunch was a leftover hotdog from Saturday. Carefully nuked to a
comfortable temperature to eat it.
 
Dinner will be a spinning chicken on the rotisserie. roasted sweet
potato, some sort of veggie to be determined.

just heading out now to go to Albertsons to pick up some ground beef
and a couple of hamburger buns. It looks like it may be an o.k. day
here although 25 mph winds predicted to later in the day.

Yeah, but you gotta like it or be desperate or both!
 
I've tried it. I was a lousy pizza! ;)

I've never had radiant heat. What do you like about it? I've got forced
air heating and air-conditioning. I love the way the air is always
moving around.

Radiant heating is really only feaseable for a house on a cement slab
and I don't consider that a house, it's a garage. With a basement the
heating system heats the basement and with a warm basement the house
stays warmer.

Radiant heat is easily done with multistory houses; insulated panels and
pex tubing make the job easy.. You can do either hydronic or electric
https://www.houseneeds.com/heating/radiant-heat-pex-tubing
 
Living in a garage on a slab here we don't need much heat and have a
heat pump for it. Electric bill for January was $61 for heat and
electric use. Our garage here also has running water and flush toilets,
almost like a real house would have, built over a hole in the ground.

The temp in the house is even—no hot and cold spots--or one room colder
than another, so we can keep the thermostat set lower and feel just as
warm. No noise from the blower, no dust!, no remembering to change furnace
filters, and energy efficient. I was initially skeptical how it would be in
a Minnesota winter, but we had the coldest winter I've ever experienced in
my lifetime this past winter, and the house was always warm, even during
the three day stretch we had with daytime highs not above -20F, which was
absolutely brutal.

Our home isn't on a cement slab, and the "man cave" underneath the house is
surprisingly not as cold as one would expect.

Are you stupid? Blame the people who start the wars.
 
The men whose lives we celebrate today are in the ground because
they cared enough to ensure the freedom of a asswipe like you.

Of course he is stupid, and he knows very well of his gross stupidity,
which is why the Kootch attempts so fervently to hide his mental
derangement behind his screaming four letter cuss words. Be thankful
and celebrate that he's stupid otherwise he'd be dangerous.

Politicians and industrialists. No war would get anywhere without them.
 
I'm not one of those squishy-soft people who think we can stop having
wars. It's built into our DNA. But I also have no illusions about who
sends our children off to die.

What "bees" are they trying to save?
Native bees, of which there are thousands of varieties?
Or, the honey bee, which is a non-native import into North America?
Here are some interesting points to consider:

None of us crotchety old farts makes much use of cellphones. I wonder
if Kuthe is reacting to his tenants' cellphone habits.

Whatever do you mean? Steaming does not impart a texture. Each
vegetable has its own texture. Steaming can achieve all that boiling
water does without the water uptake.
 
Steam until hot but crunchy, as in sugar snaps, asparagus or beans if
you like them like that. At the other end of the scale, steam until
soft for mashing, like whole potatoes.
 
Texture depends on the vegetable and the degree of doneness.

The sliding door to our deck goes into the dining/kitchen area. so
only a few steps to bring food out, and the Weber is on the ground a
few feet from the deck so that's close to bring food to the deck or
inside.... we prefer to eat inside with A/C and not getting rained
out... it rained constantly for two months now.
 
Our deck is on the south side so gets sun all day. We tried one of
those large umbrellas that goes through a hole in the table and sits
in a weighted stand but a wind came up that took the umbrella, the
table, and everything on it. That made us forget about an awning we
had been contemplating.
 
When we moved here there was a huge crimson king maple shading the
deck but it was a bug magnet and was too close to the house that its
branches would touch the roof and the roof never dried, not good so we
had that gorgeous tree removed... it was too big to move elsewhere,
had that spruce tree removed too. We had seven trees removed, they
planted one in front of each window so all that could be seen was a
wall of green. Farm people consider trees their A/C.

The last time I liked to eat outdoors was when I was a kid and it was
a picnic.

How about tossing them with a nice remoulade (sic) sauce, served with some warm crusty bread and a simple arugula salad with sliced red onion and a light lemon vinaigrette.
