I am re ading through the government EHR certification criteria and found this nugget of info on how they calculated cost. Nothing like being totally average to make you feel awesome. I guess I'd rather be average here than in NYC.

Sunday, after the move of @Dianne we had an amazing late afternoon ride to Canada. It was nice to exercise so much again. We rode our bikes The weather held out better thsn I thought it was.

This article has what sounds like a good recipe for them.

Recipe: Nancy Macarons

3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar

1 1/4 cup almond flour or meal

2 egg whites (from large eggs)

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. In a medium bowl, make a paste using 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar and 2 teaspoons water.

3. Add almond meal and unwhisked egg whites and mix. Add remaining 1/2 cup sugar and mix until thoroughly combined.

4. Transfer batter to a pastry bag fitted with a smooth tip; pipe out circles about the size of quarters, spacing each disk at least an inch apart. Rap the pans on the counter a few times to even out batter and eliminate air bubbles.

5. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until edges are golden but centers are still light and slightly soft. Let cookies cool on baking sheets for a few minutes to set.

Yield: Approximately 40 2-inch cookies

Is this a major issue here in WNY? So much so that the busses and bus stops are all plastered with a short number you can dial to report it?

FACT: innocent people are deceived and then bought and sold like property.

Call 211 to report.

I am not ready to go back yet. I wish I had a job where I could infinitely work from a remote location, although I am starting to desire cooler weather.

I wish we had one of these. I have never seen one before.

I had the best meal of the trip and one of the best in my life. We ate at The Commodore in Key West The decor, waiter and food were all amazing.

We had lump maryland blue crab meet on artichoke hearts, paramesean baked asparagus, beef carpachio with capers, a spinich salad and then for the main course 4 of the largest shrimp I ever saw with beef tips in marsala sauce and zuchinni and baked potatoes.

@terry drank beer and I drank a glass of malbec. The total bill came to $95 and this was full on fine dining with crumb sweep service.

This bone marrow dish from the 2 cent in Key West, Florida was amazing. The last time I had it was at Quality Meats in NYC when visiting @hodown. This one was even easier to eat because it was cut in half thr long way. Do they ever do this wirh sheep or lamb bones?

Using the negative filter on the computer I look like papa smurf. I think my hair will look ok white. Hope it goes white instead of grey.


No but for real i'm going all white fast.
