Grilled white acorn squash this evening. Simple, yet the flavor was great. Sweet and almost nutty.

Yes, BK and I had a nice lunch in an outrageously noisy restaurant. BK can PROJECT, but when I try to I just cough.

Did you notice that I got one line in BK's post, while the candy got five or six??

Jeanne · « **Reply #220 on:** October 31, 2010, 05:35:09 PM »

I bought NO candy. I am not expecting any trick-or-treaters. Then again, I may be surprised.

Yesterday, I was the only one in the building when I got there a little before five. Apparently the computer tech had been working on my computer after I left on Friday. He left my computer cart maybe six inches from where it is supposed to be, So, naturally I tripped over the cart and came close to smacking head first into my desk. Fortunately I grabbed the back of my office chair which then broke my fall. If I hadn't stopped myself, I probably would have been laying there, out cold, until I was able to get myself up and out of there.

I am so happy you weren't more seriously injured. What were they doing to your computer? Were they looking for porn? What were you doing in on a Saturday?

They were getting ready to install my second monitor, so that I continue to do the work of the two people we used to have doing the job. I was working overtime in the hope of getting my backlog down below the 250 case mark. I am sure the computer tech thought he had put the cart back in place, but we all know how important that extra six inches can be.

Actually, the tech had almost completely disconnected my computer, so I ended up having to try and work out of someone else's cubicle. It was not a good day!

I found a note on my front door today. Someone who used to live here is trying to find an errant package. I gave the pick-up notice for the package to the mail carrier about a week ago. Said former tenant left her phone number. I called and filled her in, and told her that if she wished to give me her current address I'll see that any other things get forwarded. I'm afraid that "grass roots" efforts are needed.

I am sure that Jan Maxwell is as wonderful in WINGS as some of the critics say that she is; but I would have trouble going to see any show directed by John Doyle.

Watching "Pal Joey." Hadn't seen it in years. Probably won't watch it again for many years to come. And then I'll tell myself, it can't really be that bad. It can. It is.

Well, I guess I had better go carve my pumpkin.

G'night!

Will there be a photo of you?

Ha ha. Actually since I was taking the pictures the only one with me in it is of only our faces inside the door.

Vibes for Vixdad. Wow that sounds scary. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was cold here (-2C with windchill) So even though it was 30ish, I still didn't find it that bad out. I had on boots, tights, thick leggings and only one warm long sleeve shirt under my warm jacket, and gloves and earmuffs. And I was not cold at all.

My niece had on tights and pants and outdoor pants (i forget the name of them, they are thinner than snowpants. She had on a hat and gloves and her jacket. And her costume over it.

I felt bad for the kids wearing their snowsuits under their costumes.

I had one more trick or treater...up to 4...glad I bought 3 bags of candy

Jennifer · « **Reply #231 on:** October 31, 2010, 05:59:35 PM »

I think we were out for maybe 1 hour 15 minutes. My niece decided she wanted to stop.

After about 30 minutes her friends joined us. Until then it was me and her at the doors. And her dad standing by the street. It was quite fun. I got quite a few pictures. Only about less than half the houses participated. But a lot of houses really had lots of nice decorations.

Jennifer · « **Reply #232 on:** October 31, 2010, 06:00:42 PM »

One of my favorite things was 4 teenagers (?) sitting outside on their lawn with full costumes and masks (they were sort of like goblins). Then one full costumed guy lying on the ground (in the cold) holding a big bowl of candy. But he was slithering around. It was really scary.

I am going to watch TAR in a few minutes.

I was going to shut my light out about 20 minutes ago, but that last girl was so cute - out walking with her dad - I'm glad I left it on. I'll shut it off at 8:00

Jennifer · « **Reply #235 on:** October 31, 2010, 06:02:59 PM »

My niece is so sweet. She love Halloween candy. But I had asked her before we went out if she got any reeses pieces if I could have one (i love these). She said sure.

Anyhow, she didn't get any, but she got one Reese peanutbutter cup (she knows i like these) and one Caramilk (she knows i like these) and she asked me if i wanted them. I told her she didn't have to since she only had one of each but she said it was okay. So sweet!

DR TCB - I'm glad you avoided a workplace accident!

Ditto!!! Are you hurting from the almost fall?

I will take some Aleve, if I have any, and a Tylenol PM and go to bed in a very short while. I'm hoping a long sleep will perk me up tomorrow.

THE FOLLOWING POST SHOULD BE IGNORED BY ALL OF OUR COOKS, CHEFS, AND GOURMET EATERS.

I found a great new frozen dinner this week. It is made by Marie Callender's. I have always liked their restaurants, but hated there frozen dinners. This is a new family-size (if you have a family of two or three) entree called Southwestern-Style Chipolte Chicken Dinner. It is wonderful, and there is plenty for two. I had already tried and enjoyed their new Scalloped Potatoes and Ham.

COOKS, CHEFS, AND GOURMET EATERS CAN NOW RETURN TO READING THE POSTS.

I suppose you figured including vegetarians was redundant

Thanks, Ginny. I naturally screwed up my back anyway; but what else is new.

I should have read the rest of your posts first. I feared it was something like this. VIBES FOR A QUICK RECOVERY!!!
