A slow morning, as in ' is there ever a fast one ? ' However, turkey [ for Friday roasting ] is out of the freezer.
AND took a turkey carcass [ or 2 ] from the freezer to a pot, w / the end hope of a slow simmered stock. Bearing in mind that another turkey carcass will be available in 4 days. 
' bout time, 'nuff said

computer issues. For about 9 months, a window pops up at random ' photos keep stopping ' in reference to the Google Photo App [ ? ] After several tries at remediation, in which the Photo App became non responsive I called A .. to make sure that I understood the ramifications of certain actions.

Advice was before ' power wash ' or factory reset, backup data not in the cloud.
Thus last night, I cleared the cache and storage in the Photo App. Really, not much changed, as in, photos were not available.
ACTION.delete the App. Restart [ clears memory for programs ]. Go back in and re - install Google Photo App. A whole lot of waiting. Too long. The magic cure. Restart and let the innards do their thing.
Try to open Photo App. Slowly, mightily slowly, the photo window began to fill.
In essence, the photos were stored in the cloud or on the Chromebook and not in the App

Success ? We shall see said the Zen Master  

the stock pot saga. doing quite necley thank you. for lunch, I scooped out some stock dosed the liquid w / soya and Maggi [ for umami flavouring ], picked out some veg added cooked corn. Boiled some vermicelli, on the grounds, that rice noodle is better than flour.
Result, quite tasty [ even better felt healthy ]

along the way. managed to drink a Guinness. Sunday, cooking, not driving, why not
