Oops sorry, I should read all the new posts before posting.
So thank you everyone, you know who you are, I wish I knew who I are.
I spent my day mostly sitting with my eyes open. Then I went to sleep.
...there's a type of creme wafer made in Croatia that is coffee flavoured. A small import grocery nearby me has them/
I think they have actual sugar ones, too.
Mocha is a blend of coffee and chocolate. I used to get mocha shakes at a place in NH when we went on vacation! Looked forward to them. They stopped making them,
And there's an old style general store that made mocha fudge, but they stopped making that flavor last year. So disappointed...it was so very good!
You can find the Voortman wafers on Amazon. They have many flavors in both sugar and sugar-free. Including Key Lime in the sugar ones! I never saw that flavor in the market! Just search "voortman wafer cookies" on Amazon.
For anyone else, they can also be found on Amazon...search "kras napolitanke wafers".
Oooh Key Lime! Must order some!
@SilverGirl if the other flavors came out in the 80s, yup I was a newly-minted grown up. And if I didn't notice them until I had kids, I was oblivious for 10+ years.
"The Technicolor Cookie Wafer Complaint Thread"
We have the successor thread name! The cookies will console us for our complaints. If our dogs, cats, & descendants don't get to them first.
They might've come out earlier; I just know for sure they were out by then.
@everyone else... oh cripes, coffee flavored? I'm doomed. Those key lime ones sound good, too. Still stuck with the fact that it's a whooooole lot of sugar when I'm trying to cut way back on that.
...sadly the Mocha creme wafers are the only one Amazon does not have.
This isn't fair. They don't have mocca.
Never mind. Whatever they have, we'll just eat it. And like it.
Non-complaint: It's soo nice out! I know it's False Fall and that more hot weather is likely, but I'll take it.
Complaint: The fantasy football league I manage has devolved into soap opera-esque drama and it's not even Week 1 yet
...well the heatwave is finally over, for now. Only made it into the low 80s today instead of the of 90° predicted. It will be more "seasonal" the next few days before the heat gets turned up again (90s, in September, in the northwest).
Haven't done much rendering in the last couple weeks as I didn't want my 13 year old computer to have a meltdown.
It felt so good to finally have my windows open...that was until my eyes began to sting. Looked outside out and there is the haze of smoke on the southern and eastern horizon. a few big fires just south and east of there are burning which are barely contained. The wildfire map shows light smoke over the city now with medium to heavy smoke encroaching on the south-eastern suburbs. The other night there was "dry lightning" (no rain) in the mountains and foothill which was not very comforting as that is what set off the massive fires around San Francisco a few years ago..
So out of the skillet into the smokehouse (and back in the skillet again by Tuesday). Fortunately I still have some unused masks left over from the pandemic.
non-complaint: Finally got around to doing up a render idea I've had for ages. Back when I was picking my sketch pencils back up, I'd considered doing it then, but I hadn't been able to get the necessary reference shots, and I'm not good enough to go without. Well, I finally had the pieces, the time, and the motivation, and it didn't even fight me once I got going! And I love that I can play around with camera angles... entirely by accident I found a couple I wouldn't otherwise have thought of. So I'm feeling satisfactorily accomplished today.
complaint: Little Dude's schedule is in the process of transitioning from dusk walks to dawn walks. Dawn walks are nicer this time of year (cooler temps) but at this point they're still at the end of the day. So yeah, he'd be awake for them... but I just don't have the energy for it.
adjacent complaint: The trail was supposed to get paved this week, but has been delayed due to the curing requirements of the concrete accessibility ramps. Which makes perfect sense, but... why on earth didn't they just schedule the paving for next week to begin with? Did they not know the concrete would need to cure?? I suspect this is what happens when people make the schedule without talking to the people who do the work to find out if it's a *reasonable* schedule.
also non-complaint: I just noticed the first few yellow leaves on the linden tree out my bedroom window. And the trees across the street are starting to tinge yellow (or at least, distinctly less green) too.
Similarly, the people who design complicated mechanical machines like automobile engines should be required to perform the maintenance on them to learn how to avoid needing to remove the engine to change the oil filter.
Or perhaps the factory management too, to teach them from telling the designers to make engine "Big" fit into chassis model "Small"
Complaint: Alone on Labor Day: This coming monday is "Labor Day" (US end-of-summer holiday). Nobody's invited me for BBQ. Not sure if that's good or bad. I'm always an uncomfortable wallflower at gatherings like that, but I like the food.
I guess I've been so good at being a wallflower that I got forgotten this year. Either that or all the people I know that invite me to such things have passed away or are about to.
Oh well, there's always the high school reunion next summer.
'Nother complaint: This summer has passed and I haven't gotten myself to a roadside chicken BBQ kiosk. I also missed the locally famous "Ellington Town Picnic" where the firemen put on a chicken barbeque dinner at noon on the Saturday of the weekend event. Although that was the weekend of the wedding and we rode through Ellington and passed the goings on. Nice to see that it's still continuing the 100+ year tradition.
Non-complaint: No bugs this summer.
No mosquitos ever bit me, no rush of lady bugs, no invasion of ants in the spring, no mice in the bread**, no horseflies, no spiders on the outside of the kitchen window, no wasps nesting in the porch roof.
Although, I was informed by the maintenance guy that the bats are still in the roof, so maybe they did a better job this year.
**Note: No, we don't have mouse eating bats around here, the maintenance guy did a good job of sealing up entry points in the stone basement.
@LeatherGryphon I think we got all your mosquitoes... we had a 5-year high around the 4th of July. Thankfully tapered off now, though. Lots of spiders, too... Teen Kiddo is arachnophobic, so there have been a lot of panicked calls for me to come handle a removal. (If I can relocate outside, I do, but I'm also short, so if it's on the ceiling it gets the Vacuum Hose of Doom.)
Sorry you've been missing out on the BBQs... gatherings like that aren't part of my summer activities, but I definitely know how much it sucks to not get to enjoy a beloved tradition. Hopefully next year you get twice as much good eatin' to make up for it.
I have never had them, but on hobbit principle alone I am against any sort of cookies being discontinued.
Also, companies need to stop discontinuing every shampoo/conditioner I get attached to.
I can't remember how many windows are open for Chrome on my desktop as I'm not home. I think over 4 but maybe 7 or 8? And most of them are filled with tabs.
Also I'm getting extremely frustrated with my boyfriend trying to convince me that the reality shows with the Kardashians or Jersey Shore are good. I rather watch shows that uses good story telling verses drama for drama sake. I want to be a published author and don't want to waste my time on watching stuff that doesn't help me with story telling.
Football is more interesting than those reality shows. It teaches me more than just content for drama sake.
edit I do notlike wrestling because it is more about entertainment than athleticism. Or am I wrong? I'm not talking about true wrestling that my dad was part of when he was in high school.
..."reality" shows, bleah. I have enough "reality" to deal with in everyday life, give me good escapist adventure and sports instead.
I remember watching All Star Wrestling every week when I was growing up In Milwaukee. "Sixty minutes of the finest mat action!" It was actually broadcast form Minneapolis, but our local independent UHF channel (remember those?) picked it up. Yeah it was all "show" but it was at least entertaining and at times comical. Much better than today's "reality" rubbish". Nothing was more fun than watching our local favourite from South Milwaukee, The Crusher go at it with mysterious mask wearing Dr. X, Mad Dog Vachon, or "Handsome" Harley Race.
"Ohhhh Yeahhhhhh!" (the Crusher's signature line).
Just went to visit my favorite mall. I went to check if the pizza place was still considering my application. I went to the food court to find out that their spot in the food court was completly empty. Not in the same way that Chick-fil-a was closed. The pizza place looked final and the end. Chick-fil-a was probably closed because it was Sunday.
I just put some pizza into the oven. I forgot how long ago but I need to check soon before it gets burnt.
The Attitude Era ruined wrestling for me. That's why I always like the Luchador style wrestlers like the Mysterio family.
(Hope it doesn't turn into a) Complaint: Wish me luck downloading new goodies. DIM, HAL 9000 2.0 (aka my grumpy old computer), and the Slowest DSL Ever are not a team for fast, dramas free downloading.
Complaint: my Discord RPG group didn't have a game last night because most of us had terrible weeks. But some of us did chat for a while.
Non-complaint: I am not on the work schedule for several days. Which makes me happy.
My boyfriend was talking about an actor named Barry Watson who played a character in a show he liked. I thought of Barry Saunders, who worked in Detroit with some lions. I also found out that Barry Watson was born in Michigan. Detroit is also in Michigan. I figured out this connection using Copilot ai.
I don´t know why I find these connections fascinating.
Edit I think I read some lions will be in Lambeau next week.
...never cared for that era either as it just went way over the top (stock car racing sort of went the same way).
What I grew up with was pretty basic (early broadcasts were still in B & W). It was done in a local Minneapolis television studio with just the ring and a small audence (in comparison to WWF broadcasts), no loud music (actually none except for the intro theme) fancy sets, flashing, lights, or special effects.
Speaking of the old WWF, they were required to change their name to World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) after the World Wildlife Fund filed a suit over use of the acronym whch the non-profit organisation coined back in1961.
