Sat. this and Sat. that...

On Friday, "Uncle A." did a bunch of cooking.  He put a Crock Pot Short Ribs Dinner on to simmer.  Then he put a Meatloaf together.  We had some of the Meatloaf for dinner, Fri. night.  Naturally, the Meatloaf makes more than one dinner, and can be frozen.  The Crock Pot Short Ribs will be for Sat. dinner.  And it will provide another meal, later.  Plus, anything like a Crock Pot meal, tastes even better the next day.  Having been cooked, and then spent the night, in the refrigerator, it gets even more yummy.  Win/Win/Win/Win!
Finished reading "The Last Dragonslayer" last night.  (And yes my Dears, it's another kid's book.)  -grin-  It was a fun read, but NOT one of those books, which I *hate* to have end.  The last book I read, was  "The Power Of Now," so I went from DEEP, to Light.  Kind of a good mix. 

And btw, "The Last Dragonslayer" may well be a kid's book.   But it's quite interesting, how many political viewpoints are shown, via satire.  Just like all those old Nursery Rhymes...  Whose basis may have been deep, dark political facts, of the time...   (Like "Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary"for instance)...

Btw, I am trying to learn how to make my post layouts, a bit more interesting.  I actually made the pic of "Mary, Mary, Quite..." show up, on the RIGHT side of my words, up above.  This is easy to do, for so many of you Dear Readers.  But to me, it is a blogging FIRST!  -chuckle-

Last night, was the final "Fringe" program.  I used to be addicted to it.  He still is.  But I've become unable to watch all the dystopian horrors,  it's been dwelling on.  Actually, I can't read dystopian literature either.  My "Grand" and I, we who love a lot of the same books, don't agree on dystopian.  She loves it.  I hate it.  :-) 
 

How about you Dear Reader?  Do you enjoy dystopian fiction?

Were you a "Fringe" fan?  

Were you satisfied with the finale?

Btw, I could watch 'Peter' (Joshua Jackson, above) just "sit and read the phone book," as the saying goes.  He is quite delicious.   Yummmmmm...  I'm sure we'll see more of him, in the future.

(First fire in the Hearth Room fireplace, last night...)

(Not economical, but warm and pretty, on a damp, rainy night...)

I still haven't tried to access my Yahoo e-mail (the one whose addy is on my Profile Page) again.  -sigh-  I suppose I will have to.   Actually I fear that I will have to give a cell phone number, to access it....  'Uncle A.' heard a news clip...   About how terrible the stealing of pass words has become.  More ways to remain secure, are becoming necessary.


 ('Uncle A's'  Jelly...)

Everyone should change their pass word, every 45 days.  Yish...  Remember the *Good Old Days* of having a catchy password, for years????   -sigh-


 ('Uncle A's' Jelly, with PB, on a torteia......   Not correct spelling......  Those flat things, made with corn (or flour), and are used in Mexican cooking......  I seem to be addddddicted to them!!!  -grin-)

The rains have set in, and it's kind of dreary.  Damp and dark and dreary.  Oh wow, and November is yet to come.  Remember the old line by Thomas Hood;

"No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees,
/No fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds, - November!"



(Just interesting tree branches, on a sunny day...)

I've yet to try to schedule a post to Publish on a certain date and time, again.  Oh, I see how to do it.   I did it.  It didn't work.  -pout-

"Fringe" returned last night......   Great acting......  Joshua-as-'Peter' just gets more and more deliciously sexy......   I still miss 'Logan'......  Guess our own world is in such a mess, that I don't enjoy watching other messy worlds......  But I'll keep watching, because we watch it, together......  And I'll just keep on *CONCENTRATING* on  Joshua-as-'Peter'......  -grin-  ~~~~~~~   Do you Dear Reader, watch "Fringe"?  What say you?????
