If you really want to challenge yourself, pick a recipe that doesn't involve the grill.
You expect him to go cold turkey?

My Mom used to do that to Himself! Mind you, it was only if he was sitting down, since Himself is 6' 2" and my Mom was only 5'...on her good days. Because he's always been balding, when she patted him she would say "my, you get more virile every time I see you!". Apparently, high testosterone is reputedly guilty for hair loss. Reputedly.....He still pats me on my head when he walks past me in the house. He has done that for as long as I could remember. Sometimes I walk past him on purpose for that little pat. I'll do that to my children someday....
OK, I understand cold. But did the CAR even warm up while you were out? I would think all it provided was shelter from the wind. And when you got back home so quickly I bet it was disappointed it didn't get to go for a nice "ride".We needed milk and coffee cream. It's so cold that neither of us was willing to walk one block to the convenience store. We finally decided to drive. It was 0.3 km there. And since we live on a one way street, the trip home was longer. Total distance: 1.3 km.
Comes at you real quick, doesn't it Beth? I'm guessing the contractor didn't have an agent working with him when you were signing the contract? We've built 3 houses and each time we made our selections either right away or soon after we broke ground. Does that "30 day" wait for the counter push your occupancy date back much? Hope not...... I am entering a period where things are happening quickly.....
Not always Addie. Like I said, we've had three stick-built houses from the hole on up. The first house was one week later than expected in a 6-month window. No biggie since we were scheduled to move mid-month from an apartment but figured on paying rent for the full month. The second was a week late, and that's because the real estate agent representing the builder mixed up our counter choice colors with the room they went in. We could have been in on time if the builder had his way, but I refused to let his Dad (one of his finish carpenters) drop in the correct kitchen counter on Easter Sunday! This last house was the worst. About three weeks late AND completely interfered with our departure when we were taking our son back to college in AZ from OH where he was staying that summer. I still think the builder did in on purpose...Oh dear! You know in construction, if they tell you six weeks, expect it to be six months....

Sigrid may have been disappointed, but she was the one out in the cold....

I didn't think to check the engine temp gauge. We were dressed for cold. Our parking space is in an underground garage. It's heated, a bit, so the car wasn't all that cold when we got in it. Think +2C as opposed to the -18C outdoors. And, it has seat heaters. So, we didn't notice the cold in the car. Of course we were dressed for cold: long underwear, boots, winter coats, gloves, covered heads.
Thanks, the warm air seems to be arriving.It is about 2C here, but that is outside and we have no snow. Just some wind. Such a difference between both sides of our country!
I will try to send you some warm air!
Sounds like a fun day for you and mom. Is Rob going to be joining you?
I am trying to multi task. It is not working. I got all the dry ingredients for the cake in a large zippy bag. Then I decided to tackle the frosting. I got the butter melted and added the cocoa just fine. Then I decided to make a cup of coffee at the same time. I poured the cream in a bowl instead of my cup. I decided it was time to take a break and sit down. I can see it is going to be a long day. One chore at a time Addie, just one chore.
Aw heck, I'm forever pouring orange juice into my coffee...

Hold on to the memories these events create. They'll be so nice to think back on when Papa and Mamma are back home. Maybe you could pat DA on her head as you pass by?

Sorry about that. I didn't do anything, really.And the cold and snow are heading our way! I really wasn't proposing a trade!
I can relate!I am presently watching water come through my ceiling. I contacted the maintenance man and we can't find where the leak is coming from. I had to move my TV. So I had to call the main number for maintenance weekend emergency. So what do they do? Call the maintenance man on site. Do they think I am so stupid that I wouldn't have contacted him first? I tell you I am surrounded by idiots!
Sorry about that. I didn't do anything, really.
We're expecting a few flurries and temps all the way up to -1C.
