[15:24] hiyas folks [16:12] snow day here, schools are open but the buses are not running [16:56] genii-around is here! Quick, hide the tea and crumpets! Bring out the coffee and donuts! [16:57] Mmmm crumpets! [16:57] Your tea is safe though, don't worry... ;) [16:58] I was thinking you wouldn't want to associate with those tea-drinking types... [16:59] I actually drink tea sometimes too, it's not *all* coffee and donuts... [17:00] So, coffee or tea for lunch? [17:01] Actually V8 today, and a $5 Subway submarine sandwich... [17:02] But of course I have a pot of decent coffee on in my office too [17:02] I've got leftovers. Gotta go, before there's a lineup at the microwave. [17:02] Run! [18:56] * genii-around makes some tea for a change [19:42] I'll take an Irish Breakfast, milk, two sugars. [19:44] mmm, Irish breakfast: bacon, eggs, sausage, black pudding, white pudding, toast, maybe a broiled tomato, juice and coffee [19:44] * genii-around slides dscassel a nicely steeped tea with just the right amount of milk and sugar [19:45] can't get black pudding like that here [19:46] we make Irish breakfast tea here the old-fashioned way when we get the cookstove fired up and can leave the pot brewing over night [19:47] thick and rich and still black even when you've added lots of milk [19:49] it's so strong you could leave a spoon standing up in it if it didn't dissolve first [19:54] bregma: yum [19:55] http://www.orrsbutchers.com/ [19:55] ^ from Milngavie [19:55] Mm, nice.

[20:18] if only then knew what went into a hot dog....
