I can have coffee! I just need to have it with cream or at least whole milk. Whatever I can get these days. That binds the tannins and makes it less terrible for my tummy.
One of the good things is that cream/milk makes coffee taste like it smells (and it smells good).

My usual breakfast is three eggs medium steamed (runny centers) with coffee. We have an egg cooker at work and it gets used a lot. Usually itās just a dash of salt and pepper for the eggs, but Iāll occasionally bring in a can of Cavenderās seasoning.
Cooking eggs at work? What? Also what is Cavenderās? Do you at least have toast to sop up the yolks?
That would be like trying to share Old Bay Seasoning outside my local region maybe?

Nah I eat the eggs whole, one bite. Yummy. 
It can be picked up at Walmart and other stores. Works great as a general seasoning for just about anything.
Okā¦So this is a Regional spice competition! OLD BAY!
Back to your real post though, you donāt find it odd to have the yolk just break totally in your mouth? I adore medium eggs but want to sop up the yolk over something or with something like toast.

Old Bay is great as well. Shoot even good old Lowryās Seasoned Salt works if youāre desperate.
Iāve always eaten boiled/steamed eggs whole. So I guess no, I donāt find it odd. 
When pan fried/poached, yeah Iāll toast up some bread and sop up the yolks.

Okā¦I can let that slide then 
I will have to look into the other blend you mentioned. I normally just make my own.
Except curry. I have a friend who dry roasts the spices and hand grinds the curry mix. It has been a xmas gift request more than once. Given to me I mean.

Iām gonna have to bust out the griddle and whip up some grilled double-cheese sammiches and heat up some tomato soup. Rip up one sandwich and throw it in the soup and dunk the other. 
Iām going to get fat if I keep chatting here. lol

Ever play a game called Descent? First person shooter, 6 degrees of movement. Flying a ship through mines, kill robot āmonstersā, blow a reactor, find the exit? I had a blast playing that game in the late 90ās playing online on Kali. Tons of fun multiplayer.

Add those hot dogs that turn your water pink if you boil them, and you got a start of a good southern cookout.
Handing out the candy. Get them kiddos sugared up good!
I am a grinch with the porch light OFF. We donāt have many kids who do door to door anymore. Most go to the community center, school event, church event, or something like that. This year it seems more like people are doing small home parties and scavenger hunts with close family who are quarantined with them already.
Kind of a shame though, there are at least 12 kids here that are the perfect age for dressing up and trick or treating our couple of streets. Between 4 and 10 years old. I know all the parents and kids so it is fun to see what they do each year. They mostly come as a group to visit the neighbors they know, show off costumes, then head back home. Out and home before dark!
BUT not this year.

Great idea in this difficult time of social isolation. Similar thing happened in a computer chess forum I frequent ā¦ a place for non chess talk was added.
Here is a post I always wanted to write. it may apply here.
What if any are your superstitions about gaming . diablo in particular?
One of mine is I sense that in seasons I get better drops. Items that are better than the ones my non seasonal monk has. lol I know it is just random but is just a superstitious hunch. baseball players are notorious for superstitious behaviors. Maybe us gamers are too?
Iād lean towards selection bias on this.
My superstition is that RNG hates me, most of the time. 
I have had a superstition since Diablo 2 days sitting there on dial up in my office room.
I am convinced I get better drops on my birthday, Xmas, and New Years. I have no idea why. But I am convinced somehow they do tweak them.
The birthday thing might be confirmation bias. The other holidays thoughā¦nobody can convince me I am wrong.
Covers ears
Today actually, would be a good day to have upped D3 drops. I am playing my first WoW Horde char though - so that is also worthy of Halloween.

I cheated and used my BfA boost on her before the level squish pre-patch. Leveling is INSANE fast now and it lets me see the Horde side of the story. I have to admit, the Horde side this expansion is a hell of a lot better than Alliance. The mechanics for quests in particular but also the story. I actually did like the Alliance story (especially Drustvar except when they killed the cat)ā¦but Horde is a hell of a lot better.
