🥻 ... and the rains came. we were deluged and more
almost afraid to tour the basement
PLUS we will touch 60 F this afternoon
Follow up: a report tracking weight control since Fe 9 / 25 which started at # 181.6. This morning, I recorded # 175. I' ve limited bread to once a week or less. However, corn, rice and noodles ( esp. Rice and Beans noodles and Vermicelli) are staples
AND I get beer daily if I want
Thus. A slow march over two months.
🈲 has anything settled down ?
what does that even mean ?
' boro weather. still gray out the window. loud sounds from the street [ wind gusts]
AND we have much rain due for the day
🧝the Father of Life brought us ice that falls. and today bright sunshine and cold ....
yes. its a fooly for sure
🌨 .... for the month. we use the expression ' WE the North ' for the Raptors basketball team
however, no, not even close in re: Ontario. slightly N of us, say 100 km, the area is under state of emergency. ice covered trees and standing objects. downed power lines and the snap of branches dropping
did we get rain last night, early evening. bucketing down. the downspout [ I altered it to be easier to reach and mend ] was entertainment central. water gushed out for two hours. much like a sluice gate
follow up. dinner last night. was tempura. Yes, I have done this before. however, not in a long time. say three to four years
I had a ton of doubt or procrastination jitters. finally, bought the shrimp. not big but medium. just in case, I needed to make sure that they would cook thru
I happened to buy a crunch pack of salad. add a potato and there you go
turned out terrific.
secret steps. keep everything cold. shrimp peeled and rubbed w/ soya sauce. potatoes washed sliced and soaked in water and left in the fridge. potatoes were dried before being used
I pre coated the food items in corn starch
all the veg came straight from the fridge
what a mess. guess, my lack of experience was on full display
result. was delicious. saved the oil and expect to try a repeat.
the batter was 50 / 50 flour and biscuit mix [ yes, packaged ]
🚅 ..the worstest ..... the ' boro has missed on the direst of outcomes
yes. we have ice on the trees
but the roads look driveable
whereas. areas of Ontario were layered w/ ice on standing objects
🏩 Will Robinson ..... the Robot
in the ' boro. cars are moving well. roads appear wet but not icy
We shall see said the Zen-Master
