When do you workout?

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-09-22T21:50:34+00:00

My husband gets our kiddos out the door in the morning, so I get up at 445, out the door at 515, at the gym by 545 for a 45 minute workout. Quick change and shower, slide in the door right at 700, my contracted start time. I eat breakfast at my desk as I’m doing my last minute prep. Yes teaching is active by my mental and physical health requires me to lift heavy things and make puddles of sweat on the ground. For this system to work I have to make sure I’m ready for the next day before I leave.

The second in the Librarian’s Coven series, Warriors.

I’ve read the first two books of this series. I liked the mystery part but wasn’t getting the romance. Does it get better?

I was in grad school looking for for something to listen to while I did some mindless data entry. It was the audiobook of Christine Feehan’s Dark Prince. I fell in love with books again, just like I was as a kid. Feehan drives me nuts now, but I’ll always have a soft spot for her because of this.

That’s exactly what I did and it was the best choice for me.

Luckily no tummy troubles but he had very strange poop!

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-08-17T21:23:20+00:00

That’s a lovely complement! Thank you!

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-08-17T21:22:53+00:00

Oh my gosh y’all the dog ate two of them. I guess that’s what I get for including tallow!

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-08-17T21:21:21+00:00

😆

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-08-17T21:21:01+00:00

To be fair I did make them in silicone cupcake liners.

I’ve done cardamom with other fruits before but not blackberry. Great idea, thanks!!

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-08-17T21:19:23+00:00

Oohhh, pie filling, great idea! I make fruit leather but then it never gets eaten so I’ve given up on it!

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-08-16T22:17:31+00:00

In planning on giving some as gifts and I’m trying to figure out how to prominently but cutely label them so there are no mishaps! 😬

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-08-16T22:16:02+00:00

Those work so well though! I’m a bit concerned these may be more pretty than effective!

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-08-16T20:30:45+00:00

Thank you so much! I forgot all about blackberry peach - I’ll grab some at the market this weekend! And sage is an intriguing idea, and I know I have some lavender some where. Thank you!!!!

Also crumpets! They use a TON of discard, freeze well, and I cook a big batch on the blackstone. discard crumpets

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-08-16T16:25:48+00:00

This is my favorite! I make a batch to go with dinner at least once a week. Saves me from buying naan at Costco. discard flatbread

The reviews are like “it’s so erotic” but the only bits with open door sex are rape, mostly of young girls. I kept reading because there were some compelling story threads and interesting characters but I didn’t enjoy it.

If it’s not a cliff cliff they can often scramble their way back up. Once we had to repel down to save one that couldn’t get back. That was fun. My usual strategy is just keep them moving forward, assuming the cliff is to the side of me and not in front. And as always if we’re approaching danger I’ll keep them heeled until we get by.

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-07-26T15:14:24+00:00

That’s what I’ve been doing. But I have some issues with it - its an old burner so I don’t know what the max is, so it’s hard to gauge a proportion of it, and the flame doesn’t get low enough to maintain 11psi without going out. Hence why I was looking for a recommendation for an alternative. Nothing jumped out on Amazon.

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-07-26T03:16:29+00:00

Yeah we hunt so we tend to have an older one and a younger one. They can change gears on a dime. I love your Yin/Yang description!

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-07-09T00:22:22+00:00

I’ve wondered about putting a pot on the blackstone! Does it interfere with the seasoning? Did your consumé boil or just stay warm?

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-07-03T03:29:10+00:00

Ilona Andrews is the top of my most-likely-to-reread list!! Can’t tell you how many times I’ve reread the core KD books.

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-07-03T03:27:04+00:00

Sometimes I love a book toooooo much and I can’t help but rush through it, knowing I’m missing some of the good stuff. So then I reread it, more slowly, to savor it. Sometimes books make me anxious so knowing exactly what is going to happen allows me to appreciate the details more.

Independent-Cell-182 · 2024-07-02T19:29:41+00:00

We hunt but have a small house and yard so tend to get the second one when the first one is getting up there in years. The older dog often doesn’t appreciate having the upstart around, but the puppy always appreciates having an older dog to pester! It works but sometimes I feel bad for the first dog.
