A few years back one of the older workers at the thrift shop made fun of my patch work on some old jeans. I had used soft material and she said loudly "Your underwear is showing". I turn red as a male worker was near by. I guess my darn it was not that good or she was just being one of those b words.

The latter were always on my restaurant menus and I've cooked many over the years...and I still love them, but I don't cook desserts for myself these days. Actually, other than at Christmas I've never cooked desserts just for myself...only when entertaining others and I do very little of that nowadays. Been there, done that...lots of "that"! <br /><br />Thanks for coming by. :)<br /><br />Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835982875620956300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27914104.post-36344850518871831622016-07-04T12:40:57.053-07:002016-07-04T12:40:57.053-07:00One thing I have a great deal of patience for is s...One thing I have a great deal of patience for is sorting computer problems. This is a great disadvantage to me. I keep getting asked to sort them out. <br /><br />I love cooking ('though perhaps not as much as I did) but cannot for the life of me be bothered to make custard from scratch. Crème brulet yes: custard no. This is a point of contention with a close friend who <i>always</i> makes hers with Birds Custard Powder and won't eat any other.

I go off like a sky rocket and realize I'm making an ass of myself and just try harder. I was pulling a GORGEOUS meatloaf out of the oven, and you know about my sore and swollen ribs. Well, Joe walked into the kitchen and....we "met" in the middle of my ribs somehow and I dropped the huge meatloaf, steaming, in the middle of my BRAND NEW FLOOR. I lost it. Joe cleaned up the mess, but still......<br /><br />We were very poor when I was a kid, and darning was the thing to do. I've since darned a few of Joe's socks, but to me, wearing a darned sock is painful. I must have bunched the thread too much.lotta joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742978845913126675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27914104.post-82606673427039779332016-07-02T03:18:27.439-07:002016-07-02T03:18:27.439-07:00I do have one kept aside for emergencies, Mr. Ad-M...I do have one kept aside for emergencies, Mr. Ad-Man...my laptop...it only gets used at times as described in my post.<br /><br />Darned if I know what men are good for!<br /><br />Thanks for coming by. :)Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835982875620956300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27914104.post-55390690636636457322016-07-02T01:15:37.733-07:002016-07-02T01:15:37.733-07:00Darning, that's what women are for!

On the dessert theme though I recently had a craving for old fashioned rice pudding baked like it was in the old days. Had all the ingredients for it so whipped one up and served it warm for dessert with a few tinned peaches.

I upgraded from XP to 10 about three or four months ago. I slipped into 10 easily...thankfully! The problem I had the other day originally was created by me and Microsoft decided to run with it! I only have myself to blame...so I put my arm admitting my crime!<br /><br />Steamed puddings were very popular when I was a kid, as were a lot of things that probably have faded into the distance these days.<br /><br />I'm glad you still here to tell your yarn!

Kyle, the guy I now used updated it to Windows 10 a few months ago. It was an easy transition to 10, thankfully. The problem wasn't with the hard drive...I just couldn't get started because I was all of a sudden being asked for a password...and I've never used a password for my PC.
