Waiting room music, especially loud, has so much potential to be horrible.<br/><br/>My doctor’s office has a very loud bubbling fountain in the waiting room. Not bad except that I can’t understand what anyone says with it in earshot, so I have to sit facing the door to the back and keep my eyes peeled.

I plan to cube, season and sear the meat before lunch, get it in the pot with mirepoix, and start simmering the stock (from a carton, likely), while I take my post-lunch nap. After the nap, taters, carrots, some maters, and possibly some sweet potatoes will go in and then it simmers until it’s time to eat. 2024-09-25T12:16:28Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsf5lyuhh6tdjccrnyugjqepxmqertx36mjxk85553kqwsuypdyptqzypfx2s0zdt5a0rv69q40wy5elkj6q2efmpyusytqekagwf9n6rkn7xn5cr9 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsy7llq32u5gr6gv6dxwsdhtxm088qwk3palud28q9g8ykyfy5fklgfqlhlg'>nevent1q…lhlg</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Our dinner last night was leftover rotisserie chicken white meat from the deli at the grocery store (Thursday’s dinner was the thighs and legs with some cole slaw), hand-shredded, then rewarmed with taco seasoning (homemade) and flour (still very low net carbs for my sweetie) with cheese, lettuce, and tomato-based salsa. I wrapped mine in a tortilla. My sweetie ate hers with a spoon. 2024-09-23T12:22:13Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqst8u85348rpenjs45uu2awn9zx4ys8944xkcrwu3mxuud0nerajaqzypfx2s0zdt5a0rv69q40wy5elkj6q2efmpyusytqekagwf9n6rkn738t0ae In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspcewum3z4r23wq0y2uk6j7ycyt3z9w7nv4jfnpn5qhqmezmsd9xs8t2vtk'>nevent1q…2vtk</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Any chance of finding something at Talin Market down in ABQ, maybe? <a href="https://talinmarket.com">https://talinmarket.com</a> 2024-09-16T15:28:06Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsvuzdkpv9n2e5umpxpadukuee9mq4p558s5u8ps9ud0sk0lwqy9eszypfx2s0zdt5a0rv69q40wy5elkj6q2efmpyusytqekagwf9n6rkn7qe6q47 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs8j02apvd4lwa7g5gqu3jdfum4sxmu6w8fqcddq0wlfe3kc43n73crz4g5p'>nevent1q…4g5p</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I strongly prefer dead trees books, but at the moment I’m reading <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1ksfsk7zf88lk37thy0w5254empykpkw2aenr3chpnjv7wp2usyjsgmr6s6" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Michael W Lucas :flan_on_fire:</span> (<span class="italic">npub1ksf…r6s6</span>)</a></span>’s “Prohibition Orcs” omnibus. See, when they followed the elves in “sailing to the west” the orcs ended up in Detroit, running booze from Canada during the 1920s. They’re fun stories, and as I’ve got an infection in my left eye, my depth perception is gone for the moment, and I’m staying away from the machines that have a taste for human flesh.<br/><br/><a href="https://www.tiltedwindmillpress.com/product/prohibition-orcs/">https://www.tiltedwindmillpress.com/product/prohibition-orcs/</a><br/><br/><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/1104444140/caution-these-teeth-have-a-taste-for">https://www.etsy.com/listing/1104444140/caution-these-teeth-have-a-taste-for</a><br/> <img src="https://cdn.masto.host/writing/media_attachments/files/113/131/021/497/373/619/original/afecc6907c6c1909.jpeg"> <br/> 2024-09-13T15:46:35Z
