I've never eaten ramen noodles either.

I guess they are supposed to be for kids:laughing:, but I keep several of the Creamy Chicken Flavor ones on hand because I like them, even though my wife does not. And you sure cannot beat the price.

Back in from planting a tray of 200 yellow cabbage collards and a tray of Early Jersey Wakefield cabbage.
Realized I need to get more collard seed since impossible to get just one planted at a time, little hard seed balls just roll too easily.
probably have a lot of thinning to do.

I can hear strains from the Jefferson's in Don's new achievement, Movin' On Up!
He'll be running the place soon, yessirreee.

Ptouch labeler conked out on me, changed the batteries, still nothing. Have to order another one, nothing gets fixed any more.
Need a good one for all my plant labels this year, learned my lesson about permanent markers that aren't.

We both like ramen noodles. We buy them by the dozen. The boy used to eat them quite often, but we certainly eat our fair share of them, too. The regular Chicken flavor or Creamy Chicken are the only ones we buy. I've also been known to melt a slice or two of American cheese into mine for cheesy noodles. Some hot sauce spices them up as well. When you're not particularly hungry, it's a handy three minute space-filler meal.

I hadn't thought about adding cheese or hot sauce, but a couple of days ago I had to buy a bottle of Cholula Original because I'd run out. I'll have to try some of it in my ramen noodles.

And you buy the ramen noodles by the dozen? I just looked and I've still got a dozen from the last time I bought any, and that was 2 dozen in the box.

JB, can you bark as loud as Brogan?
a .22 would take care of at least one of those corn fed turkeys. :)

I laid down for a short 'power nap' at 11:30 A.M. I got up at 3:30 P.M. Some power nap!

The temp here went a l l the way up to 7F, today.

Ramen noodles are nothing but salt.

Ramen noodles are particularly unhealthy because they contain a food additive called Tertiary-butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ), a preservative that is a petroleum industry byproduct. They're also incredibly high in sodium, calories and saturated fat. The containers packaging these noodles aren't helping much either.


not too many people promoting healthy eating with these. More like potato chips.
But then many folks can eat potato chips and be perfectly healthy and happy.
Looks like comfort food to me. I doubt it hurts unless you eat them every day.

Ramen was a mainstay in the rucksack when I was active duty and going to the field. Mix with meat from a C ration, maybe some hot sauce, cooked in canteen cup. Still eat, just not as often.

41ー here this morning and forecast for 45ー by about 4 p.m. Then temp forecast to rise to 48ー by 10 p.m. Chance of rain is 100% which I can confirm ...... since it's raining here now.

Looks like it will be a day in the workshop, cleaning up, to get ready for next project.

The shop is a raised center aisle barn and has a string of 8 ft. fluorescent fixtures in the middle bay. The fixtures hang on chains and are 16 ft. above the floor. Needless to say, replacing 8 ft. tubes, on chain suspended fixtures, from the top of a very tall ladder ......... sux badly.

I've found and purchased some 8 ft. long fixtures that have 4 x 4ft. T8 LED tubes. They will hang from same chains as the present fixtures and get powered from same BX cables from boxes under the roof peak.

I decided to use a local electrical contractor, that does both residential and commercial work, for the install. They have 2 man scissor lifts to work from and I will be their ground man. We have a total of 9 fixtures to replace. All my woodworking equipment is on mobile bases and shop tables have big casters. I should be able to just move equipment to the side so the scissor lift can travel down the center of the shop.

Once down, I'll evaluate the old fixtures for rebuild and use elsewhere.

Everyone have an excellent Day?

Prayers to all.

I used those LED fixtures in both my shops, and I知 putting them in Ellen痴 she shed. They are bright, clear and fill space like corners, etc..., very nicely.

Middle daughter and wife decided to retile main bath/shower.. started demo today... some of the tiles just almost fall off, others break into small pieces.. decided to cut cement out instead of trying to remove tiles.. cheaper than a couple hours labor for sure to just replace it. It is going to be a big job anyway we do it. I thought the multi tool with appropriate blade would take the tiles off easy, but the ones properly installed are just not coming off very well..

Good fun, loud and dusty.. Glad daughter is doing much of it.
