Cheese Taco Breakfast

 

I am always searching for something new for breakfast that is compatible with my IBS list of foods.

I found scrambled eggs with cheese made a great breakfast taco.

Simply scrambling eggs and putting cheese in and fold in a flour taco straight from the package.

A few days ago, I read this post by Denise at English Girl Rambles and 

Wowser! thank you Denise.

Same food different taste. 

If you read her post, I KNOW MINE DOESN"T LOOK PRETTY like hers.

I placed Seriously Sharp Cheese in the pan spayed with Olive Oil

placed pan on medium heat.

poured egg mixture on top of eggs and when semi firm, place flour taco on top

and let it sit until egg started to set, flipped it over, when done, folded in half and onto my plate.

I used two eggs because I share the egg with Beau.

If you are a REAL cook who follows recipes, you might want to check her post.

Calories in mine were, PAST TENSE, ha ha at  350. and Beaus ate some of those.

IBS friendly, I have to take Dairy Pills when I eat cheese.

Shopping Wynn Dixie!

I pulled into the parking lot at Winn Dixie and the view above was so perfect i had to dig

out the iPhone camera. 

Below is a zoom same view.

 

I stepped out of the car and aimed the phone at the palm trees and thought, this will be perfect to show my blogger friends how beautiful Florida is even when simply checking out a newly remodeled grocery store.

Here is the scoop. The price on the ham said 48.00. A yellow sticker said, if you are Awards member, price of ham is 26.00.

Everything in the store has a HIGH price and a low price.

To get the low price I signed up as awards member, and each time I shop, I start by inputing my phone number and get the cheaper price. 

She said if I am a visiotor to the store and not a permanent resident, she would give me a wone time store card to get the discount

OV VEY! 

Why? Just put the cheaper price on it and stop the madness. Their low price is still MORE THAN Wal-Mart. Even the BOGO buy one get one is more.

Beautiful Store, HIGH prices! I spent 30 minutes wandering the aisles pricing the things I buy at Walmart. Prices do not compare!

I will buy meat and a few things there but am still focused on SAVING DOLLARS

I added the finishing touch with a photo of the

Darling Little Basket I used to carry a Ham and a yellow Bell Pepper.

Isn't this basket too cute for words? I want one to move things around in the yard.

    

Brain in Training with OS (wordy wed)

Our Brain needs exercise, Physical and Mental. We all know we should play games, do puzzles, Yoga for the brain.

I have a brain exercise that is none of the above.

I have 5 devices that connect to internet. 

Kindle Reader and I read 2 to 4 hours a day, several books a week.

I have not missed reading every day since I retired in 2006

iPhone 7 plus (Apple OS)

Desktop Computer (Windows 11)

Chromebook (chrome OS)

Cell Phone (android)

It is a rare day that I don't use every single operating system in all 4 devices. Just changing from Android to Apple phones many times a day and switching from laptop to desktop is a lot of Brain Exercises because nothing is the same on any of them.

I find myself trying to turn off the android phone by pushing where the button is on the iPhone and vice versa.  Deciding where and when to put the pointer finger, use the thumb to sign in, use the code on another and each device is locked requiring a code or print to get in. 

My senior memory is nil to none, and I am hoping that all this switching will shore up the sagging memory cells. 

what do you do to exercise your memory cells/brain?

I hope this found on Google search is true because in a few more months I should have a super brain memory surge.

Can you train your brain to change?

Practicing a new and challenging activity is a good bet for building and maintaining cognitive skills. Your brain has the ability to learn and grow as you age — a process called brain plasticity — but for it to do so, you have to train it on a regular basis.

MAD CHATTER

 

 I opened the above cabinet to put 3 containers with lids where they reside.

the resulting catastrophe had me wanting to hide.

A lid fell and hit my head, the other bounced from my arm to the floor.  

 I realized the cabinet would hold no more.

Quickly I pulled everything out.

and started to move them all about.

I removed the bad and the ugly, leaving only the good.

I stacked and I stacked until they all sat moored.

I tossed all else in the trash and thought I was done.

While taking the photo, I thought OH NO!

those two big containers are perfectly good, but the lids are a mess,

I started to feel a little stress.

Suddenly 

I thought I was done, I had this idea,

I opened the cabinet over the stove, removed all things putting there and here.

I fought to open the drawer full of utensils that makes me say words I don't want you to hear.

I cleaned and I scrubbed and tossed things away,

Sitting spices in one, and utensil in the other, I tossed the lids in the trash and there they stay

I realized I it took two hours to put 3 containers away,

then I thought take photos and go play.

Mad Chatter

Fresh from a windy and cold walk with Beau, while washing my hands, I noted the Windblown Hair Style. Grabbing the ever present iPhone I hid behind it and took three photos of hair only.

I do not wear makeup on walks with Beau.

 

I sat down to tap the collage app to show the hair do to YOU.

There are now 6 new apps on the iPhone, this one is called Pic Jointer collage maker.

You can see a lot of examples of collages and other app stuff on Beaus Blog.

or Not.

While creating the "MASTERPIECE" above, and the Black Duck collages this past week,

I received a notification from Apple stating Tap this for introductions to things you may not know your phone can do.

OF COURSE, I tapped it!

I will spare you the SIX new things I learned. The one I am sharing said    

A simple swipe up from the bottom of your phone will put everything.

you need easy access. Above shows what I see, 

Flashlight, clock, calculator/camera and scanner all on first row.

Plane quite, internet, Wi-Fi Bluetooth 1st square. forget the rest 

I LOVE IT

Do you answer notifications on your phone? I always look at tips that come on desktop, both phones, Chromebook. that is how I learn new things.

I found I can invite anyone without Apple phone to Facetime with me, by sending a link, so watch out people!

I tapped the double window thingy, and it said Mirror Samsung TV, I tapped it and it said enter code, I closed it because I had no code just as Bob said.

What the hell is that on the screen. (of course, it was the middle of a race)

I looked up and there was a huge CODE number on the screen.

COVERING THE RACE CARS! All of them.

I don't know what would happen if I put the code  in because the answer would have been me murdered!

I will find out unless someone here can tell me what will happen.

Chat-n #1 - Lo-quay-ious

Several years ago, at our YMCA pool, the lifeguard said to my hubby, “isn’t the lady that talks a lot your wife?”

Another time, in the parking lot after AM church services I stood chatting with friends.

My husband and son stood with arms crossed over the chest, hands under armpits.

You know, that “classic stance” men assume when waiting on the little lady.  

I heard my 30 year old son say with a huge sigh “My Mom has a black-belt in conversation”.

Anywhere, any time, I chat with people!  In line at the cash register, sitting  in a doctors waiting room, walking across a parking lot. Even at the sink in the public restroom.

I talk to strangers. If they talk back I talk MORE!  

Standing in line in Wal-Mart,  I said to the tiny lady in front of me “why in the world do THEY place price stickers on the glass where it leaves sticky glue that can’t be removed. Why don’t they put them on the back where it doesn’t matter?”

In a beautiful drawl, she said “Ah can tell ya how, honey. Drop oil on tha sticka, don’t matta what kind. Soak it, rub it and that sticka will come right off that glass clean as a whistle.”

 I came home and removed the stickers by using a few drops of olive oil. Hubby asked how I knew to do that and I said “I learned it from a lady from Kentucky, she is here on vacation with her son and his wife and 2 children and they are staying at the beach, she was so cute, about 90 years old and she said use WD-40, Murphy’s soap oil….  And mid-sentence I realized he was no longer in the kitchen.

 I once went into a fit of depression in the waiting room while hubby had 4 hours of surgery.
10 people waiting. Not ONE that would stop punching electronic devices and talk to me.  Believe me, I tried. My comments were met with silence.

The door opened and a man I worked with for years and had not seen since I retired 11 years ago sat down next to me and said “Good morning, how have you been?

I bet his ears are still ringing….

If you’re still with me, this post came about because Myra of Respice Respite posted this article,
Big Word by Sean Dietrich on his blog Sean of the South. He said his dad gave him the word loquacious.

I thought that is MY word!… it means tending to talk a great deal. I am going to spell my version of loquacious like this.  Lo-quay-ious.. isn't that precious? Also the younger generation will know how to pronounce/spell it.

You can call me Mad-Loquay for short. Or maybe MadChatter
