raised & rooted plant-based chicken nugets

 not good at all.

the coating was tough and we had to drown them in BBQ sauce just to eat them.

summer-like heat

 it's getting to be that time of year again, where it is far too hot, humid and sunny for my liking.

ugh & yuck!

my birthday 2021

 i've been doing birthday posts since i started this blog & been doing blogthing quizzes since 2009 (except for a couple of years were i found stuff from other sites), but can't access that site right now. either it's just have temporary issues or is shut down completely. if it comes back up, i might tack on something here.

doing nothing special, unless you count a cheese cake sampler from wal-mart which will be dessert for the next few days.

graeter's ice cream

it's from some company in cincinnati, ohio, the want to be fancy supermarket had them on sale so we got 3.

sea salt caramel, peanut butter chocolate chip & s'mores (most of the flavors had chocolate chips).

not one was any good, could not tase any PB, barely tasted caramel & gram cracker, plus the marshmallows in the s'mores had an odd texture. the chocolate was bleh.

ben & jerry's on it's most mediocre day is better.

aldi's mac & cheese pizza

 it really is macaroni, not shells, bow tie or cavatappi.

it was from their refrigerated section, not frozen and was kind ofinteresting, crust was thinner than i expected. and it was kind of odd to run across apiece or two of unflavored pasta along the edges. while not bad, would not get again.

another fancy german cake from aldi

 this time it's bienenstich indulgent cake, it's golden cake topped with vanilla flavored mousse & caramelized almond flakes.

much better then the one with cherries, but the caramelized almond flake top is impossible to cut through, so you end up squishing the mousse out of the sides. would not get again for that reason.

i miss stargate: sg-1

 not only the episodes, but the old five things community on love journal.

that's the problem when a tv show or movie series is over, most of that kind of things just dries up.

but with stuff like star trek & star wars, even where they wasn't a lot of new visual content (shows or movies) there where still novels. and with star trek there was enough variety with the shows and movies that people were doing fan fic in between movies and tv series. in fact fan fic is the big thing it is because of star trek.
