Check-In Thread #94: Nontotient Plutonium NBA

[Madeliaette]

GM. my dad used to grow shallots and pickle those....he loved them and did it every year, though i dont like pickled veg much myself. potica is a sort of nutty cake roll i think? i seem to remember seeing it in a vegan version cookbook some time....but i may be wrong.
yesterday cheered me up - surprising what a couple of hours of A+ company can do to clear the mind of misery. been nbitterly cold out for the poast couple of days - but i am keeping cosy in multiple layers of clothing, candles warm the indoor air 1-2 degrees, and coffee and raw ginger warm my breath....but my darn nose still drips!

Good morning, everyone.

Man, it is chilly in here. The heat just can't keep up with the cold and wind. Luckily, it's all uphill here, temperature-wise, and it should be fairly comfortable by lunchtime.

Also on sale at Whole Fppds was individual servings of Bulletproof cold brewed coffee. I like their lemon candy so I tried some. They had vanilla latte abd chocolate coffee, I'll try those sometime but tried their plain coffee and liked it.

Chocolate coffee sounds pretty good.

I'm glad you had a cheerful day, but I hope it warms up for you.

Good morning!

Not much planned for the day, other than work.

I like pickles, and sauerkraut. I have a really good recipe for pickled green beans. I'm going to have to try Lily's dark chocolate. I wonder if Earth Fare sells it.

Happy Chewsday, everyone

Today is my heavy teaching day. I can't take a late-day nap because I was invited to give an IRB talk at 4pm. Drat

chocolate coffee

Adding bacon or chocolate to anything makes it better, for sure

That's good. The wife built a fire in the fireplace yesterday and that helped heat-up our TV room where we do most of our hanging out.

You're absolutely right

I like pickles, and sauerkraut.

I do, too. When I was a kid, I hated those things. But now I love them. Go figure.

^I rather liked pickles when I was really little, but now I don't. But I've never liked sauerkraut even though everyone else in my family did.

Good morning, all.

[RJDiogenes]

Good evening, everyone.

Today was madness, but they actually gave me two extra helpers.

I always used to hate piccalilli, but now I relish it.

^^ I could see that pun coming and still got hit with it

Just got back from giving my IRB talk. The guy who invited me gave me the wrong room number, so I showed up on the exact opposite side of campus. After finally figuring out which room I should be at, I zoomed in my car across campus and showed up at the correct room, only to discover there was no computer or projector for my powerpoint. So I just had to wing it.

I'm pretty good at winging but now I'm all wung out.

[Madeliaette]

GM.

I hope it warms up for you.

Good morning, everyone.

It's actually going to go above freezing today.

Sometimes they're like a runaway train.

Watch out for that guy the next time he invites you to talk.

There's another train.

Well, at least he's doing something. Hopefully this will help.

Happy Wednesday, everyone

Today I have a few meetings and a couple of errands to run. Not much else on tap.

i think cold weather is wasted unless we get enough to play with!

I believe cold weather should be banned altogether

Watch out for that guy the next time he invites you to talk.

He's kind of an annoying guy to begin with. This incident didn't exactly improve my impression of him

Hope y'all have a great day

[Lupine]

Good morning, one and all.

Just the same'ol, same'ol here.

[RJDiogenes]

Good evening, everyone.

Tomorrow I must go in to HQ. At least it will be warmer.

Today I have a few meetings and a couple of errands to run.

Don't forget to bring your own AV equipment.

You must get the appropriate revenge on him. Invite him to speak and then give him the address of a Country-and-Western bar or something.

Ditto, ditto.

Invite him to speak and then give him the address of a Country-and-Western bar.

Now THAT is a brilliant idea

I'm glad you use your brains for good instead of evil.

GM. think i have another cold - might just be major league sinus issues though - will find out later today. 2 x cleaning jobs on later.
