That sucks.  I just baked some maple walnut muffins.  I have to wait for them to cool a bit but they make pretty tasty snacks or a nice breakfast food.

I had a marinated hatch chili chicken bag I was really looking forward to, but when I opened it, the whole thing smelled horrible. Right in the bin. Shame when that happens.I was going to make enchiladas. :(

I lived on PB&J sandwiches one year as I was working in a place where I didn't have access to a fridge or to a reasonably priced lunch place.  The whole wheat bread with good peanut butter and decent jam kept me going all day.  It was amazing how I basically never got hungry.  Probably due to the fat and proteins in the peanut butter.

I'm making "shake & bake" chicken with just bone in thighs and a McCormick rub sprinkled on the skin, along with small baked potatoes.  That's about my speed these days.  I had a small salad so I could make it for the hour it takes for them to cook.  I'm amazed at how expensive chicken is getting.

While food shopping online I discovered that you can buy pickle juice. Sans pickles!
Also a deli platter of sliced veggies for burgers is a bit rich for regular food shopping, but priced well for a BBQ.

Had a PB&J for lunch, exciting, I know.

Lately, I've been chopping enough vegetables for 2 dishes when I do, storing half in the fridge.  This morning I got out the remaining vegs and started making soup.  It's only 9 a.m. and the soup is already cooking.  I usually wait until 4 pm or so, and have the end product for dinner.  For some reason, I jumped in early and will put it in the fridge until later after it's finished.

Right now I just feel like going back to bed, since I got up too early, but I can't leave the soup on the fire while I'm sleeping, so I am on here.

I'm watching Walking on Sunshine, an Austrian comedy about a tv weather program, the people who produce it and their antics.  It seemed like it was kind of lame at first but it gets funnier.  There's some really quirky characters on there.

youtube has thousands of cat videos, and most of them are annoying.  But I was surprised to see that some enterprising videographers had made videos for cats to enjoy.  I never knew that cats would watch tv, but they are 8 hours long, perhaps to entertain lonely cats while owners are at work.   They feature birds, squirrels and chipmunks running around in the visual field.

Our cat is fascinated by anything going cheep on TV.

Incidentally, a cattery not too far from here has a TV in every pen - or whatever they call the living quarters.

I very much enjoy invincible but the gaps between seasons are massive.
