Where oh where is everyone? I know many of you are in California. Have a wonderful time.

It is not just raining here, it is a solid sheet of rain. So much for gardenig today. Guess I shall be an indoor slug instead.

Hi, bikemom! I'm here, at least for a check-in.

It's house cleaning day, and the weather is nice - we have a yard full of overgrowth to tame!! And, if we get enough of the chores done, we should be able to go for a ride. yay!

DH seems to have a bit of a cold, though, so we'll see what we can do....

next up - weigh in.

I bet you have some great indoor stuff you'll get done today! Make the most of it,

Hugs & butterflies,

I'm here BMo3. But I'm about to head out. Have to drop my truck off at the garage and DH and I will go for a ride while it's being fixed. It's raining here too but only lightly and it's not raining in The Dalles where we have to take our truck. So we'll be riding in the desert again today.

I'll be checking in later.

It does feel like the halls are empty and there's an echo in here.

LBTC and Wahine-have wonderful rides today. The rain has forced to to do the dreaded spring cleaning of the closets. *sigh* My yard really needs work. Maybe tomorrow? One can hope.

LBTC-you have sounded much more energetic, I am glad.

I went for a ride by myself this morning, after DH and I had breakfast in town. Beautiful sunny day, but only in the upper 40's now.
Now I'm working on my bike...pushed the seat back a 1/2 inch, and have been retaping & twining the bars and am now applying 3 coats of amber shellac on the cork tape. Eating some good French cheese between shellac coats drying...

LBTC- There are a ton of weeds in our yard to pull when you get done and have energy to spare!

Lisa- French cheese? You sound like DH, our store always has imported cheese samples and I have to drag him away.

Off to ride, the weather man was wrong and the predicated thunderstorms are nowhere in sight!

b'fast: leftover Phad Thai
lunch: mushroom and smoked salmon fritatta

Between those I ate some Clif blox on a 25 mile ride with MimiTabby and her DS's DGF. chatted with some peace-supporters, might stand along the road with a placard with 'em next Saturday. Already planned out what my two placards will say: "I love my Navy family" (got a lot of family in the Navy) and "Our vets need better medical care" (cuz they do!!!)

Got a call from Trek, she says the Cindy is fun and she had a flat tire. Now they're at a lunch stop.

Yep. Like BMO3, I'm a big fan of GOOD cheese (note: does not include anything called "cheese food")

DH likes good cheese too, but he doesn't like the stronger or stinkier types- but oooh I like them ALL! We made a special trip to a gourmet cheese shop owned by a real Frenchman last month- he imports special cheeses and you can of course taste them before buying. TOO WONDERFUL! Afterwards, we make our special cheeses last a while, eating little portions every day like treats...

Making a big ol' crock pot of vicchysoisse.

Now I want the CHEESE and wine to go with it!!!

Oooh, a nice stinky cheese to offset the onion and potato... a robust smooth red wine to go with the cheese (and to sip with dark chocolate for dessert)

Or maybe a delicate crumbly farmer's cheese with a dry white wine, and pears for dessert?

Or neither, since I have no $$ and don't get paid until Monday. Poo.

**Aggie_Ama** · 03-31-2007, 05:13 PM

DH is an all cheese kind. Strong, stinky, whatever. I am not a cheese person. Except Queso.

Vicchysoisse was a spelling word of mine in 4th grade. My fabulous teacher liked to sneak words in like that, gosh she was amazing.

Knotted- Our new HEB Plus (grocery store) has an entire gluten free section. I thought of you when I saw it.
