Lay's Bacon Grilled Cheese

 one of those suggest a flavor contest winners. this one came back by popular demand.

slight cheese flavor. no bacon flavor. which might be good, as the bacon is described as "smoky" and we really do not like smoke flavor. 

mom's birthday 2026

from horiscopes.com

You've probably had a busy week, Libra, and may feel out of sorts today. Perhaps you had too much good food last night, stayed up too late, or both. It goes against your grain to stay in and rest, but this is the perfect day to curl up with a good book. You're going to want some exercise, but don't overdo it. As you well know, you can get too much of a good thing!

tarot of the day
The World

The World card signifies a long journey coming to an end. If you've recently accomplished a lifelong goal such as purchasing a house, that's why this card appears. Take a well-earned victory lap before you prepare for the next big adventure.
The card depicts a butterfly at its last stage in life: fully transformed and able to fly. Such is the representation the World card brings: The end to a long journey. As the butterfly rises above, there's a sense of accomplishment and success associated with its movement. That's because the World's presence is a clear indicator that you have lived, you have loved, and you have learned. It's time to use that information to live the life you want.

Hershey's Salted Caramel Creme

saw this in a commercial and we decided to try it.

kind of tastes like their regular milk chocolate bar with a bit of caramel in it. not interested in getting again.

there's one with some kind of coffee cream filling, but we don't like coffee so we are not trying that. 

just because is is sept.

 doesn't mean that summer is over.

it was hot yesterday and it is hot today. looks like it will be hot for a few days next week.

fall doesn't officially start until sept. 22, but even then there could still be some hot days. 

hell, a few years ago we had 2-3 random days of 80+ degree temperatures in december! we had to dig out some shorts out of storage.

dad's birthday 2026

 from horoscopes.com;

 

This could be one of those days in which you feel like you just can't get anything right, Virgo. In an effort to appease other people, you may think you have to make some adjustments that make you feel uneasy. This uncomfortable feeling could turn into nervousness, restlessness, and eventually anger. Don't feel like you need to be the one to make any sacrifices at this time.

tarrot card of the day
Temperance;

Balance is hard to find, but the Temperance card is clear: You're finding it in your own life. Now, keep that moderation going. All of life is a balancing act and you're well on your way to reaching inner peace. Nurture it.
If you're feeling calmer just looking at this card, imagine what it'd be like to bring that calm to the rest of your life. With the fire and water elements juggled on both sides, Temperance is a true depiction of balance. She enjoys all the sensations that life has to offer, on both ends of the spectrum: good and bad, happy and sad, and so forth. Through her hands the elements combine to create perfect harmony. They ask you to seek this in your own life.

too hot again

 it august, so it's going to be hot (various levels of hot) for a couple of more weeks yet.

maybe into september, which i do not look forward too. 

nissin bbq noodles

found these limited time thing at wal-mart a few weeks ago & decided to have them for lunch this week. 

it says "noodles in sauce" on the cup, so it is not a soup. 

they are kansas city style bbq & texas style bbq flavors. the kanasa city one was very spicy, the texas was not quite as spicy.

not that good & would not get again.
