I wonder if she has it installed yet??? Okay, yeah it was only a couple of minutes, but I'm not that patient.

FJ has made her first cookies in the Easy Bake Oven. Ooh yum. She had lots of fun with it! She even let her little brother stir the icing.

I think I'll stick with the homemade brownies from the other night.

winddance- see my avatar? See the dashing Terry Bolero? (Over the Terry Presta Tank!) I LOVE my Bolero.

Site still down. I forgot to mention, during my ride today, the Pres of the cycling club had his first ever crash, right in front of me, and I didn't hit him!! He touched wheels with someone who was accordioning. He's ok.

In other news, though, an A rider had a stick go through his wheel last weekend and endo-ed over the front and smashed out his front teeth!!! Yowch!! He's ok, too, except for the teeth.

Nanci, I'm not having any trouble with the Terry site, is that the site you're talking about?

**winddance** · 08-12-2006, 01:49 PM

So pretty. I have the feeling this is going to be one of my favorite pieces of cycling clothing. I have arm warmers but I'm not a huge fan of all that elastic. Now I just need to find myself a good pair of knickers, and I'll be set. (until I find something else I "need"...)

That's so strange that you can't get to the Terry site, when I ordered my bolero earlier today!

**chickwhorips** · 08-12-2006, 02:02 PM

i checked on the terry websight and i can get into it also.

**DrBee** · 08-12-2006, 02:04 PM

Me, too. Nanci - are you having problems with any other sites?

No! I haven't even gone to the basement yet! I'm stuck in the vortex that is Team Estrogen Women's Cycling Discussion Forums!

I am so envious of fishjr. I always wanted an Easy Bake oven. Funny thing is, now I have the adult version. I live in a cool old building, but my kitchen will only accomodate one of those small ovens. And it only has one rack, because it's so old that nobody can find a rack that size anymore. So. I can bake 8 cookies at a time. Eight. That's it. I even had to find an extra small cookie sheet! When I buy a place and have a real oven again, it will be the height of luxury.

Now I'm going to the basement. Bye.

EEERRRRR. I can get into any other site, just not Terry. Can't get to it through google. Can't get to it through the cache. Can't get to it on BF's computer, or with IE or Firefox...

**Nanci** · 08-12-2006, 02:25 PM

Rebooted the DSL, and now I can get in. Thanks for telling me!

**Nanci** · 08-12-2006, 02:35 PM

Lise, I love my toaster oven! I miss my old one, though. It never got hot to touch. The new one, even though it says it doesn't, still does, so I have to move the toaster off the top before using it. I love it for baking a small batch of those refrigerator cookies...

Got my saddle! Probably on sale because it is 2005. Less padding.

I'm escaping the vortex right now and going outside. I already have my leftover pork tenderloin and oven-roasted potatoes out there, with a gloass of a previously untasted Alice White Chardonnay, which smells very fruity, and my wine log, and my Palm with my wine software, and my 23 Days in July book, and my pen, and a Sierra Trading Post catalog, and some other catalog. Now all I need is the torts and Dill, who is already packaged up to go out. I can hear him hooing for me.

It's 94F, 40% humidity, dewpoint of 66F, sunny, SW wind at 13mph.

**winddance** · 08-12-2006, 02:38 PM

That's great, Nanci!

Lise, I have a mental list of things I want in my next place, too. This time it's more storage and a kitchen I can actually move around in, plus an oven that isn't 75 degrees too hot (I burned some things before I figured that out.)

My senior year of college, a shower was first on my list. The building I lived in was so old that it had plaster on the walls and not enough water pressure to have showers! I thought at first it would be relaxing, but it was the worst. When there was no hot water, a cold bath was pure torture. I was the RA for that building, so it wasn't like I could move. The things I did for free rent...

Kitsune06 · 08-12-2006, 02:39 PM

*drools at the thought of the white Chardonnay* Nanci, because you seem so experienced with wines- have you tried petit verdot? It's pretty interesting... Sakes too. Esp. Ginjo Junmai.

CWR... are you implying something? *squirrels away bike receipts to a place that may or may not be found and waits for DPITA to come home*

No gripper elastic on the legs, warm fleecy stuff on the knees.

Happy wool, with tighter wool at the knees to keep the breeze out.

(Ibex should give me comission, or at least free goodies, for all the times I mention them.

)

Edit: Mimitabby has these, too. And Quillfred wants a pair. Join us... resistance is futile.... join us.....

**Nanci** · 08-12-2006, 03:11 PM

I don't believe I've had Petit Verdot- although I may have had it in a blend. But tomorrow I am having a Pinot Meuniere! It will probably suck...

As does the Alice White 2005 Chard- all I can taste is oak- no fruit at all. I tried it cold and warmer- sucks at both temps. Too bad- it smelled so good!
Zero acid, too.
