so I think I want to try bicycle commuting on a TREK 1100
'I figured out that it was 5 miles to work, and now thanks to the miracle of google maps, I was able to find a route that I will probably survive. So I started hunting for a bike. Mostly new ones..cha-ching! Happened across this mid-90s Trek at a LBS while it was being traded-in by a guy my size/height and a couple of years older. Figured it was a sign or something, so I bought it. Removed the aero-bars, rear rack (for now) and added some fenders. Fenders are SKS Bluemels. Need to dremel the fenders to get enough clearance through the brake calipers. I'll try getting use to riding a road bike again...it has only been 35 years. Once I feel safe, I'll put the rack back on and I will try a commute.
here's a bike just like the one I got found on the web...

Oreo Truffles first provided by Anu
Oreo Truffles Recipe - Food.com - 87967: "Oreo Truffles"
or from Anu's old blog
these are great!
Here is the actual recipe just in case the link goes bye bye:
Oreo Truffles Recipe
1 hour | 1 hour prep
40 truffles (approximately)
1 lb Oreo cookies (3 sleeves)
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (using different extracts allows for subtle flavour changes...I've used mint extract, upped to 1 tsp) (optional)
1 lb milk chocolate
1/2 lb white chocolate
Using a food processor, grind cookies to a fine powder.
With a mixer, blend cookie powder, cream cheese and vanilla extract until thoroughly mixed (there should be no white traces of cream cheese).
Roll into small balls and place on wax-lined cookie sheet.
Refrigerate for 45 minutes.
Line two cookie sheets with wax paper.
In double-boiler, melt milk chocolate.
Dip balls and coat thoroughly.
With slotted spoon, lift balls out of chocolate and let excess chocolate drip off.
Place on wax-paper-lined cookie sheet.
In separate double boiler, melt white chocolate.
Using a fork, drizzle white chocolate over balls.
Let cool.
Store in airtight container, in refrigerator.

Reuse Your Keurig K-Cups!
My Keurig coffee maker stopped working a couple of days ago. It lasted 3 years and maybe I de-scaled it once (suppose to do this every 3 months). Anyway, while driving today I started wondering if you could create a cup of coffee with a K-Cup without an electric brewer. (Probably because I had to go yesterday morning without coffee or at least until I bought a new machine.) I was thinking about a french press that had a K-Cup holder at the end. Somebody must have thought of this before....well I couldn't goggle anything close to my idea.....
But I did find this cool thing.....
AND I THINK THIS IS GREAT
