Woke up and saw the Tour de France was on 41 mph AT THE END of the stage on level ground! That's just crazy!

All the local places including the one that starts with an M and shall not be named are out of play sets due to the seasonality and demand after the storm. Researching plans to make one myself and not having much luck.

First day of Kindergarten for LittleWx tomrrow...I am struggling with it. He is still 2 right?

I stayed away for 28-ish hours after the game from here. Even then, jumped straight to this thread.

Yes, he's very advanced for his age.

As a Vikings and Cyclones fan football season is shot.

Ditto, but the Cubs game today (and last night) did make things better.

Well what a difference a day makes work went well, got home in good time and even got a 12 mile bike ride in on the fat bike.

We have a tradition of going to get ice cream the day before school starts so I put LittleWx on the tag along and we rode the 2.5 miles over there. Missed that, life has gotten in the way too much.

Hey Wx do you know who own the red biplane up in MC, that they keep in the hanger you can see from the road? It looks sweet!

I hate to be a debbie downer but good luck finding the material to make on yourself, that might be pretty hard to come by too.

Yeah. I already told the kids they may be to wait until Spring. The swings themselves were salvageable so we have those just need the wood and whatnot.

Yes, they do! Which recipe did you use?
I used the measurements in this video. But instead of using warm water and milk I used cold and let it do a long slow rise in the fridge for about 20 hours. For the second rise I did about 2 hours because it takes longer as the dough warms up.
I divided it into 6 muffins

How many whatnots do you need? I'm sure Lew has 2 or 3 in the Garagemahal. He has everything else in it...

Is there an ingredient list somewhere on it? I'm not a watch-the-video person for most things (just like I'm not a podcast lover of almost anything) plus her voice and constant hand waving in the first minute was on the way to driving me nuts. Not a good thing on a Monday morning.

Better make sure he has whatnots, you could be mistaking those for whatsits. He could have some doodads or doohickeys mixed in there to complicate things and better watch out for the thingamajigs and similar but slightly different thingamabobs.

Be careful when you start talking in such technical jargon.
