    Eggs For Lunch

    Success worth noting. 3 eggs fried in butter and coconut oil in my large stainless steel fry pan. I tried many temperatures but this one is going to work. No sticking at all, and I wiped the pan clean with a paper towel, and no smoking.

    My Breakfast 1/10/23

    Sauteed in coconut oil and butter, onions, cabbage, mushrooms, and lastly some grass fed ground beef chunks. Everything was non stick until I added the meat, then it stuck a little. With that said, this was quite good. Simple, whole foods are what I eat every day. What I usually do with a stir...

    Omelet

    This is an omelet I made yesterday. It was OK, nothing special. This is a nice Kenmore 8" SS pan, I just wish it had sloped sides so I could slide the food around in it. I may buy myself a new 8" pan with sloped sides. Personally, I don't think you need to spring for a $100 Allclad pan. I think...

    Woodpecker

    I heard a unique bird singing one day, and this guy flew up to my feeders area, so I went in the house and let him help himself. I love to feed the birds. This is the first time I've seen a woodpecker at a bird feeder eating sunflower seed over many decades. My mom was an avid bird fan and she...

    Stainless Steel Non Stick Fried Eggs!

    I was thinking about getting a cast iron fry pan to fry eggs without sticking, then got to reading a thread here about it and some guy mentioned that he uses stainless steel to fry anything and it never sticks as long as it's done right. This got me thinking, then I saw some youtube videos all...

    Back To Antenna TV

    For quite a while I've been using WiFi TV with Roku and a 32" LED TV. It comes in great and gets so many stations that I don't think I'd ever get to see them all in my lifetime for the amount of time I spend watching TV. Before that I used an antenna mounted on a 6' pole outside my living room...

    Two Foods I'll Never Stop Eating

    I only eat about 20 - 25 different whole foods, and besides beans, these are two of my most important foods. Runny eggs and red potatoes baked on a silicone baking sheet.

    Olive Oil in Plastic Bottles or Glass

    I've been using extra light olive oil (XLOO) for making home made mayo lately. Right now I have a bottle of Filipo Berio in a plastic bottle. Is it really bad to consume olive oil in plastic bottles? I know glass is best, but XLOO is mostly available in plastic bottles. Sam's Club has a good...

    Best Electric Space Heater?

    I shut down my 41 year old heat pump until it gets above freezing on Monday or Tuesday and am running a quartz heater and disc furnace. I think it would be good to get a bigger space heater and shut the heat pump down on nights when it goes under 32*F and run the space heater to give my old heat...

    41 Year Old York Heat Pump

    It was 24℉ at 4am today, and at 6:30am it was 15℉, and at 8am it was about 11℉. It seems to be holding at 10℉ at 12:30pm. My 41 year old York heat pump struggles at temps under 32℉ and can't keep the house at 70℉, It's now about 64℉ in the house, (even though I turned the thermostat up to 72℉)...

    Silicone Baking Sheet for Sliced Potatoes

    White potatoes are now one of my most important foods, and I think they're going to stay that way. Picked up another 10 lb bag of reds today. I got 2 silicone baking mats and a big half sheet bake pan it fits in perfectly, and today I sliced a bunch of peeled reds about ¼" thick, and coated...

    MagicJack's Faulty Call Screening

    I wasn't receiving calls on my MJ land line phone, so last night I chatted with one of their reps, some guy with a foreign sounding name. He basically didn't know what to tell me. Then I admitted to him that there was a chance I have a defective LL phone. He wasn't even able to call me to prove...

    Still Feeling Like I Need / Want an OCI

    Since I got the Prius almost 3 years ago I've been told to run only synthetic 0w20 so I do. I thought I was going to go to one OCI per year but I get ants in my pants at around 6 months and it doesn't seem like I'll ever stop the 2 OCI per year habit, even when I only drive about 4k miles a...

    Trapper Jake Documentary

    I pay for Amazon Prime, yet I seldom watch Amazon Prime TV, but there seem to be some good things on it and I should explore it more often. I watched the Trapper Jake docu. At first I changed channels when it showed him getting ready to club a coyote or fox to death with it's foot stuck in a paw...

    Will Liquid Castile Soap Clog Drains?

    I was thinking of buying a big bottle of liquid castile soap, then I read somewhere that it can clog drains because it was made by the cold process that leaves oils unchanged or something like that. I was also going to use diluted castile liquid soap [1:4 soap / water ratio] to wash dishes with.

    Saving the Leaves For Springtime

    They say if you don't rake leaves in the fall, that the leaves on the lawn will make good habitat for things like moths that become butterflies, and for birds to get food from insects. My lawn isn't very big but I have a lot of trees here and for years I've raked all leaves before winter sets...

    Manny

    He can play too rough with my resident cats sometimes, but not often. I threaten to spray him with water and he stops. He's a good boy and loves to cuddle up to me on the sofa. He seems glad he doesn't have to deal with cold weather any more.
