@Yvonne G...Jordan and Andrew have a cabin at Shaver and they had to evacuate and it looks like the cabin is going to be a total loss. We have high temps and a strong wind blowing smoke from California's fires and one in our Cascade mountains making it terrible smoke and winds here in Corvallis. My Sulcata are closed up in their shed, and all my windows are closed, and I'm running a fan. But I've had to use my inhaler more than normal. I can hardly see across the grass seed field. It's pretty scary. I have another fan softly blowing the air in my living room where most of my birds are. Birds are very sensitive to smoke so it can be kinda dangerous. It makes me afraid for all the people having their homes burned and all we have is smoke.
Stay safe Maggie. We are thinking of you and your family and friends

Okay then. Let me pour you some then. What kind do you like? Johnnie Walker Black or Glen fidich?
Has to be a decent malt. Johnnie Walker definitely off the menu here. Glenfiddich is good.

Although both are Scottish Whisky (no E)

The Irish make Whiskey with an E

Were they at the cabin this past week-end for the holiday? That's too bad that the cabin has been destroyed.
Yep, Jason says they had to evacuate right in front of the fire. You know they have insurance, but you also know how Jordan is about his possessions...oh lordy!

Wow, that does look scary. Here parts of the sky are a reddish pink but nothing like that. It must smell terrible. ?

So he is living with a person who was born a male, but is now a female, and he/she is now a them.

That looks like an English muffin to me. Crumpets? Is that your mission? To mention or serve crumpets?

My mission has long since been terminated :)

An English Muffin is more like a bread roll that you split and toast

A crumpet is cooked on a griddle, more like a pancake, and has lots of holes in it. The texture is closer to pancake than bread

So I like the butter part, would I add syrup like pancakes, or raspberry jam on the butter, in any fashion you have made me want one....?

This sucks. I think I should stop now so that others can catch up to me with negative points. Besides other than Yvonne I don't see anyone else trying to figure out what missions are. Surely Oh Dark Lord you can start giving negative points for not making guesses.
Nope.
