Starting the New Year right.
« on: January 01, 2018, 08:53:56 AM »
OK, it's a balmy 18F today so my annual January 1 bike ride will not happen.  Instead I'm going to enjoy a hot bowl of STEEL CUT OATS!

Excellent idea!  We're out, so I guess a ride is in order to pick some up, as it's only 45 F here. :thumb:

Well, finally climbed up to -4 (F) so I think indoors and food are proper choices.  New X-Mas gift aroma spreader has been filing the air with something called serenity.   (thought that was a space ship).  Anyhow, a happy and serene New Year to all.
