I definitely don’t watch the network TV stations I did while I was growing up anymore. But streaming companies are putting billions into incredible quality content. I don’t think it can stay that way, but for now there is really an abundance of good content. That and podcasts. I listen to a bunch of those.

Ever get the munchies at midnight and decide to try your brand new PowerXL Airfryer / Grill combo on one of those pre-made bakeable H‑E‑B meals?



…Definitely don’t follow H‑E‑B’s cooking times…

Take off just a few minutes on the cooking instructions with the air fryer. If it says twenty start with about 15. My fire alarm is very sensitive, so much so that even turning it on sometimes sets it off. (And this is common across my complex), so I use my air fryer for most things. Get the times right (again, start short and then add on) and you won’t be sorry.

That first setup would have been the death of me with as much time as I spent in front of the computer at home this past year and a half....

Dude, what was that supposed to be? LOL, air fryers do take some getting used to. I have that exact same desk in your first picture - Does it have the keyboard slide out?

Was supposed to be Salmon with Alfredo Noodles. The only thing that wasn’t charcoaled was the Salmon.

But yeah the glass top desk does have a keyboard slide out. Was using that in my apartment & eventually home with my PC/Server combo … was a bit cramped but it got the job done

I’ll also add there’s really no way to boil noodles in the air fryer. Make them normal, cook the veggies and meat in the air fryer s d then mix it all in, after the noodles are cooked and drained, then put on the air fryer for 2-3 minutes to mix it all up and make it yummy. I’m making a pork penne pasta with mine tonight.

On a real estate note a new “luxury” complex near Riverside and Faro is saying they’re within walking distance of everything, oh , and you can walk your dog to the trail. They are so dumb. The only way you’re getting to the trail from there is in your car. It’s a solid three mile walk to pleasant valley and lakeshore. (I’ve done it). Even getting to Guerrero park would be a mile and a half walk. Good god they need to hire local folks to do their marketing.

They do that stuff on purpose. It's just a catch phrase to boost marketing desirability since they're competing with other homes / apartments with similar amenities .. I run into it all the time, for example a home in Lakeway with the phrase 'Lakefront Property' ... Yea .. .. the only way you're seeing the front of the lake is from the third floor balcony.
