She's welcome too.

  Thank you!  I'll make soup again, with marinara sauce!

                       

Again?

  I made some recently at work, and the marinara sauce was a wonderful additive.

The van is in the shop so I have to walk to the deli if I want roast beef for lunch

I feel for you, Parts, I really do.

I forgot to buy plane tickets for April's London trip.

Doing anything nice there?

we don't have good choices here for breakfast since gluten free stuff is sometimes hard to find. i had to drive to the grocery store to get them. sometimes i even have to go to the one that's ten minutes away.

we did pick up $50 worth of GF sausage on our last shopping trip to the U.S. which was one of the main reasons for going. another was to pick up elderberry jelly.

so hard to make breakfast decisions. we could have omelettes with
cheese, mushroom, peppers and onions, or
with salsa, sausage and sour cream, or
with cream cheese and salmon, or steak cheese, mushrooms, peppers and onions, or
with steak, cheese, mushroom, peppers and onions, or
with bacon, cheese, peppers and onion or
with sausage, cheese, peppers and onions;
then there are all the scrambled egg choices and choices of sides like home fries, toast, a rasher of bacon, a side of ribs, etc.
eggs over easy and still all those choices for sides!
so hard to decide.
i might have to have more than one omelette.
maybe three.
i'll just have to be brave.

Work. I spend a week in London every month.

Which is nice. I like London, most of the time, and I like my colleagues.

  All I had for breakfast was a couple of Uncrustables^TM.

  Uncrustables^TM were my solution to the problem of craving PBJ but not wanting to keep anything
  perishable in my refrigerator till the mouse issue was resolved.     They're tasty enough, but
  nothing compares to a delicious fresh meal of scrambled eggs and/or omelets made with care!

Your mice are gone, your apartment is pristine. Time to grow up and make yourself decent breakfasts. No scary Uncrustables^TM any more.

Why eat breadlike stuff without a crust? Crispy crusts are a delight.

I ran out of chocolate.

Odeon lives too far away to swap crisps for chocolate.

Have Parts make you a super sling shot.

What do you mean, swap? Why can't I have both?
