Ha. Famous last words.

From experience?

I need to take my circular saw to work to cut up some scrap wood for firewood. No sense wasting the stuff, not when I'll be out in the desert camping several more weekends this fall/winter.

Got it, Robin!

I have been involved in using a sawzall to cut a car in half. That was fun.

So I've been bogarting a booth at Panera for ... four hours? Five hours? Working, but milking a cup of soup and some coffee. And was just about to feel bad about it, but the guy next to me just gave me a sandwich! Their party ended up with an extra asiago roast beef by mistake, so he gave it away. Awesome!

ND - what kind of car? Sounds fun.

Oh. Saws all. I get it.

Aw, that was nice of your Panera neighbors. Good sandwich, too. Free and tasty.

Yep! It's the one I was just about to order. Love that.

I'll make soups and stews and the like and freeze them in baggies or small ziplock containers. One day of cooking in bulk, and I have enough prepacked frozen meals for a month of lunches.

I was just thinking today how I needed to do something like this. Not necessarily cook for a month, but do some bulk cooking over the weekends to have stuff to reheat for lunch and for days when I have evening plans, which means I have to leave before I can cook anything more complex than a hotdog or a frozen pizza, but DH can't cook for me because he gets home from work later than I do. A lot of the time it's tag-team--he walks in the door from work, and I kiss him as I head out to writers group or choir, babbling something about Annabel being upstairs with a book and pizza in the oven and I'll see him in a few hours. Anyway, I eat way too much prepackaged food and spend way too much $ in the cafeteria at work, so I need to figure out how to make healthy, appetizing things that stand up well to reheating.

Awesome.

Actually, I'm in the market for a new set. Went for something yesterday and realized...it's in New Mexico. We left our router and my toolbag and some assorted stuff in the workshop over there when we moved, because our friend (that we were abandoning in the middle of the desert) was working on their house there. And then they moved back to Chicago. But I'd forgotten all that stuff was still there. I suppose I could still go back and get it, but it seems awkward after a year. Hi, can I have my stuff now that you've been assuming we donated to you?

OKTHNXBYE Me

There are only two of us here- but I have a costso membership. we don't go often , but a 4 or 5 times a year. I buy some food, some wine, or scotch or stuff like that. Some cleaning stuff . sometimes books and dvd's . and then there are things like my electric carpet sweeper, ot office supplies and there are a bunch of clothing and linen basics there too. Out membership is 50.00 - I think it works out. favorite thing: Salmon -wild , frozen and individually vacuum packed. I can running water thaw it, or thaw it in the fridge. - Because it is vacuumed packed- If I don't use it today,tomorrow, or the next is ok.

ION, we watched two episodes of Pushing daisies. 1/2 thru the first ep I was willing to kill people that were annoing me - but i didn't wan to stop. by the end of the first, I turned on the second by the end of the second despite his horror of Hopelessly devoted Dh was wondering if there were more eps.
