Coffeemaker broke this morning. It didn’t have the decency to make my morning pot of coffee before breaking. It broke as I was closing the lid over the coffee filter. So no coffee for me this morning. It’s going to be a very long day.

Sometimes I just have a hankering for breakfast foods at night. I’m not much of a breakfast eater during the weekdays. But tonight I decided I wanted to have hash with scrambled eggs and toast. So that’s dinner for me tonight.

The new gas grills are just too darn expensive for me to consider for just me and a fire for cooking. So I bought a nice little propane camp stove and it works great for grilling just one or two hamburgers or steaks. It does not take up much space and it only uses a little propane each time I use it. In fact, the same little tank of propane has lasted me from Memorial Day and is still going strong tonight.
It was a great deal and it does a great job. What else can you ask for?

Well, looks like all the tomato plants I bought this year got that fungus that I read about. It seems that every tomato plant sold by all the big outlets like Home Depot, KMart, Lowes and Target were infected with the fungus at the nursery or wholesalers before being shipped. The fungus has slowly killed each plant. I cut down each plant and tossed them in the trash can. So no tomatoes in my garden this year.

Every morning I make a small pot of coffee and sit down in the kitchen to read the morning newspaper. If anything happens to my newspaper so I cannot read it with my coffee, it starts my day off on a bad note.
This morning there was no newspaper in my driveway. So I guess some hooligan has stolen it, or more likely the newspaper delivery person forgot to throw mine in my driveway. That seems to be happening a lot lately.
