I used to do this more often, but stopped and I'm not sure why.  Anyway, I made a couple of good things last week.
Hungry? )

Today's post is about breakfast.  Spurred by the fabulous brunch we had for Taylor's birthday a couple of weeks ago.

And because I'm an airhead, I forgot that today was Thursday so I a) forgot to post here to let you know and b) forgot to check comments over at LASR.  WHOOPS.

I learned that, if you mix Good & Gather* Watermelon & Lime sparkling water with some Torani Watermelon syrup and add a bit of Svedka Blue Raspberry vodka...

...you get a really tasty and refreshing summer drink.  🤣🤣

And yes, Zayne, this is why we keep the liquor cabinet locked. 

(That and to keep the cats from sitting in the Instantpot.)

*Good & Gather is Target's store brand.

I'm making my meal plan for the week so that I can make my grocery list and get the heck out of here this morning.  Yay. Food. )

They're uneven and a little wonky, but dang do they smell good.

Tay texted me around 9 AM to tell me she was done. She also sent a pic that had all of us here in the office cackling. Kid looks miserable.

It started yesterday when Tim told Rhett that he wanted to 'go out with a bang' and told us to pick something good to have for lunch today.

And apparently craterdweller isn't the only one having issues crossposting between DW and LJ.  *sigh*

I'm looking at a menu for an Irish pub at the Mandalay Bay for a fic I'm working on (not the place they wind up eating though). And because I like to eat, I'm reading all the offerings.

I was rather surprised to find oatmeal on the menu because I love the stuff, but you rarely find it in a restaurant. Anyway, the description says this:

McCann's Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal (V)
Served with cream & honey on the side

Add Dried Fruit & Nuts, extra

Add Some Manners (Jameson Whiskey), extra

Like... adding whisky to my oatmeal is not likely to produce manners. Just sayin'. Although, now I'm wondering what that's like, especially considering I like pecans and brown sugar in my oatmeal. Hahaha.

The more I read this, the hungrier I'm getting. Better stop now because I think I'm actually making sweet & spicy noodles. LOL

Do not ask the 19-year-old if you should make coffee cake on a Sunday morning.

Her answer will always be yes.

She will also point out that you have cinnamon and cake batter on your face.

(If you're interested, the recipe is here.)

And no, I didn’t buy any more books, promise.

Yesterday, I noticed I was almost out of protein powder. I make a smoothie every morning to take to work with me and my girls generally have one every day, too, so the shit goes fast in my house. So, with school starting, I knew I needed to get more. But, since I'm too damn lazy to go to GNC and get it myself, I ordered from Amazon.
