I Believe He Was an Air Dancer

Jim Bauer @porwest (106734) • United States 1 Sep

At some point the gates of the asylums were let open (in fact, in the 80s), and so, sometimes you encounter some rather interesting people on the sides of the road or in other places. You get all the usual fare. People talking to...

Judy Evans @porwest I give them a wide berth too. I don't have skills to help them so best to avoid any problems.

Putting Bologna Back on the List

Jim Bauer @porwest (106734) • United States 2 Aug

Now, I will say this. Bologna is not everyone's cup of tea. But I remember as a kid, this being one of my favorite sandwiches. And in my early adult years there was a way to eat it that might turn your stomach, so tread lightly...

Pigs in a Blanket

Jim Bauer @porwest (106734) • United States 2 Jul

It's just good eats, and oh so simple. Pigs in a blanket, and a perfect meal that won't have too many leftovers that can't wait until we get back from our camping trip to be eaten up. Hell, we might even take them along...

Okay, So I'm MOSTLY Following Orders

Jim Bauer @porwest (106734) • United States 25 May

I try as best as I can to follow doctor's orders. On my last visit he told me my cholesterol was very slightly elevated and to refrain from eating as much pork. Of course, pork is a staple in our house. So, I have followed his...

Garlic Bread Pizza

Jim Bauer @porwest (106734) • United States 2 Aug 24

These are always so easy to make and very delicious. What could possibly go wrong here? Just regular garlic bread made into pizza. Slathered on some obligatory pizza sauce. Then added some chopped, fresh spinach. On with some...

Its Time To Grill!

Baconstripsxxx @BACONSTRIPSXXX (15779) • Torrington, Connecticut 3 Jan 17

Its been a relaxing day so far, I had a few beers and went for a swim earlier and ended up napping for two hours under the gazebo. Now I woke up full of energy and hungry! I seasoned some chicken drums earlier and my grill is...

I wasted my time at school!

Bill McAlpine @ScotMac (1335) • Edinburgh, Scotland 2 Feb 20

Yep, my time at school was pretty much a waste of my time. I hated school and didn't try very hard. I left with no qualifications - I didn't even hang around for the final exams! There were times I regretted that but, after a...

Tonight's the Night

Jim Bauer @porwest (106734) • United States 30 Aug

Tonight, in all likelihood, someone's life will forever be altered by the multi-state, United States Powerball drawing. When jackpot numbers reach $1 billion or more, the anticipation and excitement over that alone drives people...

Enjoyed Neighbor's Grilled Hamburgers

CarolDM @CarolDM (203409) • Nashville, Tennessee 31 May 21

My neighbor has been grilling all day. I can smell the food from the screen room. He just invited us, from over the fence to come over for burgers. Later this week he goes to Gatlinburg for seven days with friends and family....

Weird Goings on in the Park

Jim Bauer @porwest (106734) • United States 30 Aug

I happened to find myself in the park, sitting and enjoying nature for a bit, when I observed a parks truck appear. One blonde woman got out and proceeded to dig a hole, and when she was done, another blonde woman got out and put...

What do you do with random stuff you just can’t throw out?

Fleur @Fleura (32432) • United Kingdom 27 Feb 24

I hate to throw things away. Anything at all useful, if I don’t keep it in case I need it, I try to pass on to someone else who needs one. Anything in good condition and popular (like clothes or crockery) I donate to a charity...

Such a Simple Dish, But So Good

Jim Bauer @porwest (106734) • United States 30 Jun

I wanted to use up some leftover pork steak I had. So, I decided to make an "alfredo" of sorts. Not a true one. But a play on the concept and idea of one. Me follow a recipe? Are you kidding me? I cut up some red...

Rinse and Repeat

Jim Bauer @porwest (106734) • United States 31 Aug

Much to my surprise, when I checked the status of the Powerball drawing last night, no one won and now the jackpot has advanced to $1.1 billion. I was sure last night would be the night. Of the tickets I bought online, I had no...

The Business That Wasn't a Job: Would I Go Back?

Jim Bauer @porwest (106734) • United States 29 Aug

When the gig is done, the gig is done. At least, that's always been a big part of my philosophy when it comes to working for someone. I never look back and never have. I suppose in a way it is part of my idea of...

8/30/25 - Meals

LindaOH @LindaOHio (199578) • United States 31 Aug

Well, we shot another month in the behind. Today is 8/31. Where did this year go? Looks like none of us won the PowerBall jackpot. It's now up to $1.1 billion. There will be no Meals on Wheels for Monday and Wednesday of...

Well, just when you weren't expecting curveballs, here comes a curveball. But isn't that the whole purpose of a curveball? To offer an element of surprise that throws you off your game? There is a silver lining, of course. When...

Scrambled Eggs for Dinner

Jim Bauer @porwest (106734) • United States 7 Aug

Sometimes you just need to have something that's relatively cheap, simple and easy. That means, a scrambled egg night, and tonight is such a night. Hey, consider it a consolation that eggs have come back into price favor with me....

Home Repair Update 9/26/19

LindaOH @LindaOHio (199578) • United States 26 Sep 19

Not too much to report. The shingles came before noon; so the roofers were able to start putting them up today. My husband has a torpedo heater running in the basement to dry it out. He discovered that two of the three special...

Chipped Beef Tonight is Good Eats, Man

Jim Bauer @porwest (106734) • United States 3 Aug

Beef. It's what's for dinner. Of course, if you have been following me, I made a Mississippi pot roast the other night for dinner, and man, was that some good eats. So, what do you do with the leftovers besides just eat it? You...
