Musings

  • Hey, kids! Did you know that you’re not supposed to put pre-ground cacao through your coffee grinder so you can see if it works in the espresso machine?
    • In a totally unrelated note, does anyone know how to get an accidental Hershey bar out of a Cuisinart burr grinder?
  • Friday, I put in 4 hours worth of yard work.
    • At the end, I was sun burned and a little dehydrated.
      • Luckily for me, I was drinking Miller High Life, so hydration was corrected pretty quickly.
    • Friday afternoon, a cold front came through and dumped several inches of cold rain on Kentucky. The rain continued until Sunday morning.
    • It’s now almost 30 degrees cooler than it was last week and I’m hoping all the plants Irish Woman bought because her gotta-dig-something itch overwhelmed her.
      • Welcome to Kentucky.
  • At Christmas, Irish Woman made enough food for 30 people and only had 2 people show up to her shindig.
    • This weekend, we had almost 30 people show up for her Derby party.
    • Somehow, we ended up with almost as much leftover food this weekend as we did at Christmas.
  • Is it a bad thing that I am almost as happy with the purchase of a new vacuum cleaner as I would be at the purchase of a new gun?
  • Is it bad that I spent more on a vacuum cleaner as I did on my first shotgun?

    Women and food…somehow they ‘make’ it work! And no, spending more for a vacuum cleaner than a gun is NOT unusual today… sigh
