challah bread

 came across a loaf of this while looking in the wal-mart bakery area the other day & we decided to try it.

we thought it might be egg-y, or have some kind of flavor, but it doesn't. it is kind of dense and we are not sure if that is typical, or because it helps with the shelf life. it didn't have seeds on top, like most of the pictures of ones i've seen.

not anything to get again.

the summer heat

 i hate the summer heat. i hate being hot and sweating like crazy.

and it seems to last forever these days. well into september sometimes.

and it pops up on random days in november or december too. 

lay's honey butter chips

 another of their inspired by international flavors line. this time from korea.

the honey butter flavor is OK, but does not taste good on chips. maybe on a biscuit, or a cracker, but not a potato chip. 

this is the last of 3 lay's inspired by international flavors we picked up from wal-mart. if they have something different next time they put these out, we might try them.

lay's curry chips

 another of their line of chips inspired by international flavors, this one from thailand.

like the masala one, it is a mild flavor for the first 2-3 chips & then ramps up from there. but it's not really spicy hot like the other one. just very peppery hot.

brother's birthday 2025

 

You may feel your life is full of uninteresting people. You think they're all alike and fit perfectly within a conservative society. You don't want to be like them and would prefer to meet unusual individuals, people who differ from the crowd. They aren't too far away. You just need to make an effort to look for them.

tarrot card of the day
The High Priestess

The High Priestess is the wisest woman you've ever met. And like all the smartest people in your life, she guards her secrets closely. She's a reminder that to know yourself, you must cut out the noise and look inwards. You possess all the intuition you need to make life's biggest decisions.
The High Priestess faces us head on, challenging us to seek truth to our deepest desires from what we know already. The scroll she holds (representing knowledge) and the lunar crescent above her (representing inner emotions) are testaments to her pursuit for knowledge from within. Let her calm presence guide you to the knowledge you already possess.

lay's masala chips

it's part of their inspired by international flavors line. which we've never seen before we found them at wal-mart. this particular one was "inspired" by the flavors of india.

the first couple of chips you eat have a pretty mild flavor, but when you get to the 3rd & 4th ones it's really hot.

maybe people who are into hot stuff would think it's not too bad, but me and my brother are not any of those people. 

july 4th 2025
