It is possible to buy induction woks. Bloody expensive mind!

Gorgeous German engineering as always - but no specific BTU mention.

I'd be loathe to throw that into commercial use at any cost.

Still it's far cheaper than the one I linked to.

I got my blood-builder shot this morning and a shot of B-12 to boost
energy so I took myself shopping and brought a magnet with me. Got a
large skillet and a small skillet and a medium pot. Thought I was
buying a small pot at BB&B. It wasn't in a box. She went and found one
in a box, but when I got home it was a double boiler which I did not
want. Have to take it back.

Also went to Bealls and with a 25% off coupon bought myself a couple of
cute tops and a pair of cargo capris in a color I was missing. Then I
went to Ross, where I found a pot (others were at Marshall's) and bought
myself 2 dresses with the Tuesday geezer discount. I think one might be
good for the reunion. The other will probably sail with me to Europe in
November.

Also got a big bag of dog food. I never fed the dog, it was Barry's
job, so I didn't know how fast it got used up. Mickey eats his fill and
leaves the rest, so I mostly feed him the kibble once a day, but he
takes a bigger scoop than I'd have thought. He's still at a good
weight, so I'm not worried. Got $5 off the bag with coupon Sherpa on my
smartphone. If you haven't tried this free app, you should. All kinds
of store coupons.

Also went to Sam's and got steaks to freeze. OMG meat has gotten so
expensive! I bought 3 rib eyes, each good for two meals for me and they
were $30!

Found that they finally carried my favorite breakfast cereal and got
some of those and they had a good deal on canned, Alaska pink salmon. I
am making salmon croquettes and spaghetti, a favorite comfort meal,
tonight. I used the self-checkout for my 3 items and was out in a flash.

The salmon is a good source of calcium, especially when I mash in the
bones. I am on steroids, so I need a lot of extra calcium.

Came home and made two chili dogs for lunch and had my daily bowl of
tapioca pudding with mango, papaya and blueberries (washed n vinegar
water and rinsed) with a little home made, extra-thick whipped cream.

I may be ready for a nap.

Tomorrow is my birthday so I got me some presents. The washing machine
repair man is due at 11 AM and the water softener repair man is due at 1
PM. I'm thinking of getting a little Dairy Queen cake and celebrating
with the repair men. :-)

We have used the self-checkout at Sam's, even though George dislikes
them. The receipt gives you a count, and we counted our items and we
could not get our numbers to much. We forgot that we got a soft drink,
and we were not counting that. Mystery solved. On another occasion, we
did the self-checkout and we were on our way to the car, when we
wondered if we scanned the case of toilet paper in the bottom of the
basket - nope, it was not on the receipt, so back we went. George
pulled into the regular check out line, this time. I may never get him
to self check, again. :-)

Hope you have a delightful birthday.

Have you heard about the Jersey girl who took her team to the Little

I did! My friends took me to the Country Club for dinner on the patio.
We had some nachos, spring rolls and guacamole as starters and I
shared a Chilean Sea Bass dish with asparagus and spinach with my friend.

I even got up and danced a little.

Drank decaf coffee on the rocks.

The washer is fixed. It took the 4 hours. I did get my pajama top
back. The water softener is trash. I called Culligan and I'm going to
rent one from them. No sense paying $1500 for a new one when I don't
know how long Ill be here. I have my RO with Culligan and their service
is wonderful.
