~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

[Jude58]

Dill, unfortunately no, we didn't get any of the carrot cake. It would probably be considered rude if you took a cake to a party with a couple of pieces missing. That's ok as we make it for ourselves quite often.

Peachie, your casual drinking doesn't bother me either, we're just happy to have you here!

Rava, I never thought of putting pineapple chunks in the carrot cake but it sounds yummy. Maybe next time.

Waves to Cowboy, Ginger and Mul!

Not today...

5:15am in Alberta, another 24 please, and thanks...

Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!

[abcowboy]

Let me guess Rava, the inappropriate poem started something like "Roses are red, Violets are blue...." lol

What a shame you didn't get to try any of the cake Jude, you should have baked 4 then haha.

Waves to the rest of the gang!

We're under a winter storm warning for the next couple of days. Lots of snow, blowing snow, high winds, and the temp is supposed to drop to bitter cold. Guess the only place I'll be going is outside to shovel lol.

[dill]

You know, I never made a carrot cake! I love it though. I think I'll look in my cookbooks for recipes and give it a go!

Rava, speaking of add-ins, I wanted to tell you I tried the beets with feta and loved it!

Waves to all!

So, here's a general question for the Cafe patrons: Is your go to beverage coffee or tea? And how do you take it?

24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.

[Rava]

Good morning cafe. Cowboy, yes the poem kinda started like that. LOL. Hope you stay warm and cozy today in the winter storm. Dill Glad you liked the beets and feta! There are a lot of recipes with those ingredients adding in arugula and other things. I am a coffee person, 3 bags of Splenda and lots of French vanilla creamer. Jude if you made a carrot cake in a round pan, you could slice some and push it together then icing it. Can you tell I have done that before! LOL. No one knew it. Hope everyone has a great day. I am off to another mahjong lesson later today. 24 more please and thank you.

Morning all! Looks like I forgot to check in yesterday but all is great here.

Dill, I drink one cup of black coffee in the morning and sometimes I drink a kombucha in the evening. Otherwise, just water.

Peachie, I love having you here. Keep coming!

Jude, I love carrot cake and the more stuff the better. Yum. Now I want some carrot cake!

Rava, a beach day sounds lovely. Did you go alone or with friends?

ABC, thanks for breakfast/dinner yesterday. I finished the leftovers this morning.

Hey to anyone I missed! I'll take another day.

[Rava]

Good morning Cafe. Early morning and off to volunteer job. Hope everyone has a good Tuesday. 24 more please and thank you!

[abcowboy]

[abcowboy]

It's coffee for me dill, just black. Our coffee maker has a built-in grinder as we like fresh ground coffee, so we keep coffee beans on hand at our place.

Waves to the rest of the gang...

The winter storm hit us sometime through the night. Lots of snow already and lots more predicted throughout the day and into tomorrow. Not much point going out to shovel till the wind and snow let up a bit.

[Jude58]

Good morning cafe! I actually slept in until 6:00 am and it was wonderful! I probably would have slept longer if I hadn't heard the washing machine going. Apparently one of the cats managed to hit the start button. It's too bad that I can't teach them to put a load of clothes in before turning it on.

Dill, you should definitely make a homemade carrot cake. It's way better than the store bought stuff! I drink coffee every morning with cream and sugar and sometimes at night I have a cup of herbal tea.

Cowboy, sounds like you're in for a snowy couple of days. Stay safe and warm!

Rava, unfortunately we made the cakes in a rectangular pan and there would be no way to hide the fact that there were pieces missing. I like your idea though!

Waves to Peachie, Ginger and Mul!

24 more please...

[Ginger999]

Rained from 3a on this morning. The desert and its spring flowers will pop.

Lil Sis will be here March 1. I can't wait to see her!

Greetings to all my pals here. I'll take another day of freedom!

[dill]

Ha Rava! Your coffee sounds like Mr. D's except that he uses sugar free Italian Sweet Cream and extra splenda packets.

Ginger, I drink two cups but make half-caf so I guess we are equal there. I add a splash of half&half though. I tried kombucha years ago but never developed a taste for it. It's certainly good for you though!

Cowboy, you and Bubba are sound like our coffee aficionados! No wonder the coffee in the Cafe tastes so great! We make our coffee in a Bunn coffee maker with the always hot water tank, but we do not take time to grind our own beans. We have a grinder though and have used it in the past. I'm working on becoming a black coffee drinker, but so far have only been able to cut the creamer to a splash. I'm getting there! Sorry you have been hit with another snow storm! Might as well have another cup of coffee!

Jude, what a treat to sleep in until 6! When you said the sound of the washer woke you I thought maybe Mr. J was doing a load. The cat? That's funny!

Hey Peachie, waiting to hear if you're a coffee or tea (or both) drinker....

24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.

[Peachie]

Hi everyone. It's 8.47pm here. Hope everyone has a great day.

AB take care in that weather! It's just unimaginable to me in this warm and dy country.

I love carrot cake especially the icing on it. Yum.

My younger sister owns a horse stud over in Victoria. She has always been horse mad! She has no children but has 4 huge standard poodles who are her kids..she is 66yrs old and runs marathons. Fit as a fiddle. Always bossing me around to stay fit and healthy. LOL.

Dill I'm a coffee person. Good strong coffees .

Quiet and peaceful day today. Just how I like it.

Off to bed I go. My little Patches won't settle til I head to bed so she can go to bed too.

Night night
Xxx
