What I'm Reading This Week #27
Happy Friday everyone! I hope you've got the day off to enjoy. I would really appreciate the weather dialing it back from Satan's taint to dryish heat please. I'm not even asking for much. Like 83 degrees would make me happy at this point but there's no end in sight to the 90's. The Mr and I have both been plagued with migraines this week. He had a two day event and I had an ocular migraine which is just so crappy to deal with since you can't read or do anything until your vision isn't screwed up. I got to wait on hold for an hour Tuesday with the state tax department so I decided to sand and prime the newel post while listening to hold music designed to make you hang up. To quote Bugs Bunny "he don't know me vewy well, do he?" I got that squared away and later went out between pop up storms to deadhead some zinnias which you may have seen in Wednesday's post. Speaking of Wednesday, it was a busy day in the ga...
Yeah, wow, had no idea spa's cost so much. I figured 5-7K max. And they say those are made to last a lifetime yet nearly every hot tub we've ever used on vacation at any given rental home has had problems of some kind so we know that isn't true. Was a good weekend overall but short as always.
ReplyDeleteHoly cow that's expensive. I would have guessed around the same as the Mr. I wonder if the ones without all the bells and whistles are much cheaper? They do have inflatable ones (like the pools) for much less but I can't speak to the quality. I only know that because a friend got one a couple years ago for under $1000. No idea if it's still around and kicking though.
ReplyDeleteNot a lot here this weekend. Lego Club at the library Saturday and the indoor pool on Sunday. Plus all the usual weekend chores. At some point, when I wasn't looking, I got old and boring.
That pooch is so stinking cute!! As for the hot tub, that's what I want to live in at some point. Just put a little roof over me and I'd be all set. lol Glad you got your kinks worked out with the massage therapist and she helped you to feel better!
ReplyDeleteKodiak. I use the high protein box. I add egg whites and scoop of protein powder to further help the macros. Mine rises just fine. It might be the egg whites. I reduce the amount of water to compensate for egg whites. I cook in waffle maker.
ReplyDeleteNo they are not the same as the higher carb/sugar brands. (But I cannot eat something that high in carbs with almost no protein. I would spend the rest of the day trying to catch up my protein.) But husband and I like them on occassion. He eats with blue berries and honey and nuts. I eat with bit of lite butter. To us they are the right amount of good. I actually like that they are not "too" good, do not leave me wanting to finish the box. And very filling.
