Can't fault your thinking on the K-3ii and the K-1.

True, but what does that have to do with this thread?

Nothing! But that's the whole point! And in my defence, I'll simply say........

Glad to see you here

...for however long it is before the hociR gets you.

So many have gone missing that there is hardly any doubt as to what happened to them......every one bought a K3.

That's not right!

Here it is nearing midnight and now I am frying bacon.....but damn it smells so good!

Is there any smell better than frying bacon?

Nope. That's right at the top of the smellometer.

Then you will need to work overtime to make more. At least you do not live in a famous country to the east of where you live where your trade union would tell you that was too much like hard work - and stop you.

Ha! We did a whole packet tonight. Some, for lunch tomorrow, and the rest for the pasta dinner, this evening. Busy night. Had Teacher / Parent interviews for both kids.

Rupert · 09-06-2016, 05:56 AM

Well, around midnight I went and opened an Aldi pre-cooked package and did 10 more slices in the microwave. I ate 4, and feeling guilty, took the other 6 out to the raccoons that were playing on the back deck. Big raccoon smiles all around!

My raccoon is not all that good, they are not big talkers, just big eaters, but I swear I heard them chanting...HAIL BACON!

Mrs Rupert, who has to work, went to bed around 10pm and when I got in bed at 1am she said "it's hard to sleep with that bacon smell...is any left?"
When I told her the raccoons got the last 6 slices I cooked, it was..."Damn raccoons!"

There is a orchestra playing in Rupert's kitchen! Met this band in Northern Norway this summer. They are from Berlin.

I think I can get out a few pots & pans, call in a dozen squirrels and 4-5 raccoons and do even better.

I can't do all that hopping around but Mrs Rupert can, she does that Zumba stuff 2-3 time a week.

I saw them perform live and it sounded good to me! You should feel honored to have a band somewhere named after you kitchen full of Velveeta (and bacon

).
