Tried out the new high tech toaster oven/air fryer. Sliced up some potatoes 1tbsp olive oil and seasoning and 15 minutes they're done. probably should have turned them half way through. The jar is a quart of home made sauerkraut that just finished fermenting.

Good evening.

Internet was knocked out for a good part of the day. Walmart was hell again, about thirty people alone in the empty toilet paper aisle. There is talk of the national guard coming in to block major roads if need be.

I did find some work with my usual employer, so Saturday I'll be working.

I started collecting seeds for my garden. So far I have red onion, white onion, sweet onions, potatoes, cucumbers, and lettuce....

Rusty,

Good going on the planning ahead for the garden. There's some seed exchange groups out there you can join also.

Given this crazy virus thing we'll probably start more of our plants from seeds this year such as tomatoes, swiss chard, etc....
Don't know if you grow swiss chard or not but it's a great replacement for spinach and you can harvest it and it'll grow back several times throughout the season.

Never heard of Swiss chard, but I'm willing to try it. I'll eat anything. Sometimes I have too much, like the time I gorged myself on too much fresh fruit. I never spent so much time in one bathroom. Poor toilet.

There you are Rusty! Glad you have work.

Well people we have a reported case in our city of 100,000.... In the court house! And they had shut it down to the public. So it's who ever works there. Wonder where they vacationed or got it.I

And they said first death in New England, in Conn. an 80 yr old.

Stay safe.

Hats off to Tom...

He offered to pay my Charter Membership renewal.... but I think he has prob because no paypal.

But it was the thought that counts

Nice gesture and I am thankful for a super cool crew.

 

[ARC]

Would have been cool too... for I was still only at 16.36 in beach corroded pennies and counting ... and that took over 2 years

:P

Its hard to count that high, AARC, when you keep running out of fingers and toes.

FYI try staples, home depot, stores like that for toilet paper & paper towels. A lot of people don't realize they carry it.[/QUOTE]

============

In one of my lives I was a general manager for a national warehouse distribution center for Recreational Vehicle Parts and acc.. One of the larger selling items was TOILET PAPER. At the time, the R.V.s needed paper that would dissolve and not clog up the tanks. They made it in a cheap Single ply and also the 2-ply. RV sales are probably going to be dead so possibly not that many aware that the dealerships, as well as on-line RV parts sellers have access to it.

Just another possible source not too many are aware of.

Sorry to hear about your stove Bill.
Heck, I could have given up our NEW, ( 20 some years old ), UNUSED stove. When we bought our house it did not have any appliances. So I bought new everything. I even bought a new stove knowing the wife would not use it . It was a gas stove and it has never been hooked up. Waaaaaaay out of warranty now, but still looks good

They were just showing on the news channel Clearwater Beach.
All these kids, ( millennials ), go to college and still have NO FRICKIN BRAINS.
I can see your anger with people ARC.

 

[ARC]

Yeah they just closed that beach today thank goodness.
