So Bass came up with a good general concept to kick off the week.  Just remember, this is merely the blog discussion topic.  You can also talk about anything else (within reason). If you could travel back in time - GREAT SCOTT! - where would you go to?  What would you do? We're going to go with the premise that the Time Variance Authority would give everybody the same freebie up front, since the majority of people would go back to biblical times to see Jesus for whatever reason.  So that's a gimme, and everybody is given the opportunity to do that right out of the gate.  So, after that initial time hop, what eras or historical events would you go visit?  Just for fun, we'll start with a top 5 or 10, and then discuss from there (or else people will just say "everywhere"). We're also gonna say aging is slowed, so you could visit a place for more than just a short while if desired. Obviously this is just a guideline; if you think of any other tweaks just throw e

TUNE!  So Book had an interesting twist on the music topic since I already posted a thread about it a little while back. I mean, I'll definitely have to revisit topics here and there, that's a given, but I'll try to tweak things here and there and keep it as fresh as I possibly can. Now, then. Enough rambling.  The idea is pretty simple, post your top 20 songs. The songs you love to listen to over and over - or just 20 of your top songs if you have a lot of faves spanning different genres. Doesn't have to be all at once, you can post a couple now then a couple later, whatever you want, but let us hear some of your best of the best. You can number them if you like, and if you have a story behind one or two, feel free to share that as well if you want. And you don't have to stop at 20.  We just want to see your top picks first.  If you're in a zone, then by all means keep going.  Hell, post 100 for all I care. 😆 As always, this is just one conversation topic.

 This week's thread deals with the basic subject of animals.  Whether it's the wild beasts of the forests or the seas, or the docile, cute house pets that make the internet say "awwwwwwww", they're all fair game (you see what I did there?) in this thread. I've always liked the oddball animals.  Creatures such as the platypus, the pangolin, anteaters, aardvarks, gorillas, and the hammerhead shark (because of its cool, odd looking noggin) were the ones that drew my attention as a youngster. As far as domesticated animals, I'm an animal person so I like em all, but I particularly liked dogs such as bulldogs, Boston terriers, and bull terriers (see: Spuds MacKenzie. I may or may not have this poster... ) and cats such as siamese and balinese. What are some of your favorite animals?  What are some wildlife facts you like to share?  Nothing is off limits, so go nuts (Get it? Nuts? Squirrels? Ah, they can't all be winners). And, as always, this is just the ge

 So this is for our pillar Booker.  He requested a recipe thread, so I'm delivering. Remember, this is just the general post thread.  Discuss anything else you want (within reason, of course).   Recipes are great to look at, try out, and share.  I've tried many throughout the years, from cookbooks, to Facebook posts, to ones from baking shows I've watched.  I've even come up with my own weird concoctions.  Two recipes I've made, for example, were a dreamsicle cheesecake and a Prinsesstårta that I saw made on the Great British Baking Show.  I made it for the family Christmas one year and it came out great. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/prinsesstrta_17336/amp I tweaked the recipe by using store bought marzipan (a mistake; had to buy multiple packages of it and heat it in the microwave to soften it enough to join them together and roll flat) and also adding vanilla extract to the whipped cream layer. The dreamsicle cheesecake was also really g
