Day 136

Posted 7/25/2020

Day 136: Pizza and Wing Night... ok I skipped a head a bit let's go back to the start... got up, made pancakes for everyone, late... which fits into me schedule not the wife's... oh and coffee too. Almost like I had my shit together... ok maybe together but a few hours late. We cleaned up a bit around the house and started working on dinner early. We were having SideKick over for dinner, needed to be able to access the 4th chair at the table. I made pizza dough (I was going to delicate the whole day's entry to a rant about how much of a piece of shit our KitchenAid stand mixer is but I decided to spare you of that one again, BUT I tell you, it sure in hell isn't a Hobart... lord only knows what shit hole factory in Taiwan they are pumping this pieces of shit out of... ok never mind) Heather made a Keto Crust for us, Lawson and Guest got the real stuff. And Buffalo wings... side note: the restaurant last night in the menu is said, 'If buffaloes have wings why can't Moose..." and then listed all the flavors and styles of Moose wings... Why, Please lord tell me why people up here don't get it... I messaged SideKick... bring Celery... I get the reply: Is this for me? Like I was giving him my grocery list like he was my wife or something... it's like yes, you are coming over for dinner remember... he didn't, LOL - But he managed to make it over after being reminded. Did some gourmet Pizza's, sidekick got Boca cheese, sun dried tomatoes, fresh basil from our garden, Chicken from the neighbours farm... a few other odds and ends. Boy did boy, nothing out of this world and The Wife and I split a pizza. After the feast Heather brought out some home made ice cream on waffle cones and washed them down with another pot of coffee. After chatting a while company left and I fell down a worm hole on the internet... the Beastie Boys are funny. Heather went back to work on the blanket... she claimed a Bodkin would make her live easier, I'm like what the fuck is a Bodkin... so I google it... apparently it's a stick that holds string or ribbon... I'm like, wait here, hold my beer. Fuck I got a crap load of sticks in the basement, how hard can it be to make one. I snapped a piece of dowel off a little more than a foot long, sand a blunt point on one end, drill a few little holes in the other to put a wire in... scavenged an old heater for some springs to make the wire out of, bent it to shape, stuck it in the holes and BOB's Your Uncle! Getting late... I guess she will have to try it tomorrow.
