FLOUR- SUGAR -SODA -SALT- EGGS- MILK- AND- BUTTER
MY MOTHER STOOD AT THE STOVE AND SAID THAT MANY TIMES...
AND IN ABOUT AN HOUR WE HAD A CAKE.
IT TOOK A WHILE... AND DIDN'T HAPPEN OFTEN...
NOW I BUY A CASE- I PEAL BACK THE WRAPPER AND EAT THE CAKES
TIME CONSUMED 4 MINUTES FLAT.
THIS IS A FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM OF MINE...
IF I HAD TO GO THRU WHAT MY MOTHER DID TO MAKE A CAKE, I WOULD NOT
HAVE ANY CAKE TO EAT AND PROBABLY WEIGH LESS.
LETS FACE IT ... I AM ADDICTED TO SUGAR AND WHIPPED CREAM
OR....WHIPPED CREAM AND SUGAR...
BUTTER AND SUGAR AREN'T TOO BAD EITHER...
USE BROWN SUGAR AND I REALLY HAVE A PROBLEM.

I KEEP WONDERING -- BACK IN THE DAYS TEENAGERS ROLLED BIG STONES AROUND
THE FIELDS TO MAKE STONE WALLS... ALL THEY HAD FOR SUGAR WAS SAP OUT OF MAPLE TREES
AND WHO DISCOVERED THAT-- AND HOW???? I HAVE THOUGHT A DOSE OF REALITY IS WHAT ALOT OF THE CURRENT TEENS NEED---STONE WALL BUILDING WOULD BE A WONDERFUL - "HERE'S A PILE OF ROCKS... WHEN YOU HAVE BUILT 10' LONG X 2' HIGH THEN COME IN AND HAVE DINNER" A REAL PROJECT THAT REQUIRES PHYSICAL EFFORT. THE MILITARY IS GOOD AT THAT KIND OF THING.

SPEAKING OF THE MILITARY- STEVE DID A GREAT JOB LAST NIGHT AT 4:45 TRAINERS SESSION ON CAMERA BEFORE MAIL CALL...

I HAVE TO WRITE AN INTERIM REPORT TO SEND TO THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE GIVEN US GRANT MONEY THIS YEAR. I DON'T HAVE TO -- BUT WILL. I NEED TO REINFORCE THAT WE ARE ACTUALLY RUNNING A BUSINESS VERY ECONOMICALLY- AND NOT JUST A BUNCH OF SCREWY MEMBERS OF THE SHATUPON SOCIETY.. WHO FLY IN FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD TO PICK UP POO... EVEN THO THAT HITS THE NAIL ON THE HEAD FOR DESCRIBING THIS CAMERA COMMUNITY...
WHATEVER... IT IS WORKING.

SOFT SERVE WAS THE WORST POO YESTERDAY-- THANKFULLY BECASUE THE DAY BEFORE WE HAD ONE "NOISY" ONE IN THE KITCHEN WHERE THE FLUID WAS PROPELLED BY COMPRESSED GAS. WE WORRIED AND TOOK TEMP-- BUT IT WAS JUST A DIETARY INDISCRETION.
THERE IS ONE OTHER NOISY POO YESTERDAY....... IT IS THE "CLANK" OF PRE CONSUMED ROCKS AS THEY HIT THE TILE FLOOR INTHE KITCHEN...
*************
BUD WAS HERE ALL YESTERDAY AND SET THE TWO WOOD/COAL BURNING STOVES RIGHT IN THE NUTT AND DEAGLS HOUSES-- WITH NEW PIPES... THAT POWER OUTAGE GAVE ME A DOSE OF REALITY- AND I EVEN BOUGHTA SUPPLY OF NEW SIZE D BATTERIES FOR THE LANTERNS--- ALONG WITH A FEW HEAVY DUTY EXTENSION CORDS..
WHEN THE POWER WAS OUT , I DID MAKE A LIST-- AND I AM WORKING THRU IT. WE DID MANAGE- WITH A FEW VERY LUCKY THINGS... LIKE THE TRUCKS BLOCKING THE DRIVEWAY SO NO ONE COULD LEAVE.
****
WRITING AND YUPPY TRAINING ARE MY PLANS FOR TEH DAY.. I SHOULD/?WILL TRY QAND PUT THE CAMERA ON THE YPUUY EPISODE-- I WISH SOMEONE COULD GET TO THE YUPPY DISTRIBUTORS AND TELL THEM WE COULD USE A NEW ONE -- OR TWO LIKE THE BEAT UP ANCIENT ONE "ON CAMERA" IN FRONT OF THOUSANDS. THEY MAKE THE GUMBALL VERSION- BUT NO BONE HANDLE THAT RETURNS IN PLACE....
NOW THAT IS A GOAL FOR VIEWERS... THE OLD YUPPY IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE NEW ONES...
****
AND SO IT GOES
