Good 33º foggy morning. Never got any rain here yesterday... some fell in
Grants Pass. A prediction of 50% chance early evening today.
I think I should get this sign....
On Tuesday I was watching Dr. Oz and he had a cook on the show that said
when your fresh herbs, like Rosemary Oregano and Thyme....
start getting old, the best way to save them is to wash them, dry them, and
wrap them in paper towels in small bunches. Then microwave for 1 minute. It will
dry them out and you can pull all the leaves from the stems and store them for
up to a year in the cupboard in a sealed container.
Oh yes:
Breakfast yesterday was an omelette made in the microwave with my new
omelette maker.... Here is the Amazon link:
It cooks 4 eggs into a perfect omelette in 3 minutes!
You mix the eggs and ingredients separate... I used chive rings, shredded
cheese, and minced clams...
Beat up 4 eggs and put in the maker, divided between the two sides
and microwave on high open for 1 minute 30 seconds. Then divide the other
ingredients (you can use what flips your skirt... crumbled bacon, green onions,
cheese, whatever) on both sides and microwave open for 1 minute. Then flip one
side over and snap lid shut. Microwave 30 seconds more.
I only ate half, as that was 2 eggs!!! Will reheat the other half
tomorrow.... REALLY good and sooooooo easy!!!
Oh, and Bruiser LOVED the juice from the clams!
Then it was a trip to my therapist for my back... Stacy is her name. I was
really happy to find a therapist in Rogue River so I didn't have to drive to
Grants Pass three times a week! Stacy is super nice. We had a bunch in common.
Her Dad and husband both Navy guys. She even lived in Rancho Cordova where we
did when Kristen was 2 and her dad in the AF. My uncle had a Dairy Queen there
also. Stacy's Dad was a real gunsmith, like my Jerry, and made guns, taught her
the art of shooting.
She did some deep warming (I don't know what it's called)
in my back. Then massage and then she put these pads on my back and hooked them
to a machine. For about 15 minutes it felt like little tiny people were dancing
on my back! I'll find out all the technical terms tomorrow. This is TLC Physical
Therapy:
I had worn my "The weather outside is frightful, but the wine is so
delightful" sweatshirt, so as I was sitting filling out paperwork in the office,
in came the chiropractor from lunch. His first words were "the weather outside
is frightful"... I laughed, stood up, and showed him my shirt. He laughed!!!!

This photo sits on my desk. Can't recall when or where it was taken, but I
love it!
Dinner was Basmati Rice Medley (from Trader Joe's ... includes wild rice,
herbs, and vegetables) with salmon, tomatoes and artichoke hearts... The rice
and water go in the rice cooker, in the tray on top went the salmon. Then it was
plated together. On the tomatoes and artichoke hearts I put some of my infused
olive oil and garlic seasoning.
SUPER GOOD!!!!
Later it was chair, wine, a nice chat with Linda, TV, and Dude wanting
scratching. He rubs against my feet when I'm in the recliner...
Here is the video... a tad dark, but you get the idea!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy TBT. Ciao.

LOL Love the sign! What's TOO early? :) I laughed out loud when I read it.
What a darling little building for your physical therapy! You so remind me of myself and of my mother. We always visited with people and got to know about them. John tells me "Why do you have to talk so much to people? You are so much like your mother!" I tell him because I am a people person and enjoy meeting people and chatting! That's why when going on a cruise I ask for a table of 10. I love getting to hear where people are from and getting to know something about them.
mmmm Love tempura. I refuse to eat sushi so when we are in those places I have tempura. :)

Yes, T, like you I love chatting with people. With the crazy shirts I have, they more than not, get me into conversations... in the post office, the bank, the market... As for wine, NEVER is too early. It's always 5 o'clock somewhere!!!! xoxo
