After having spent five hours shopping for various boring items like new shoes for the kids, walking shoes for me (yup, another pair of Cats worn down), and some household items, we managed to get some nice and quiet time once the kids had found their way to their beds.
We found a nice white wine we hadn’t tried before, Argento Chardonnay, which went nicely with Jack’s spicy Chili Chicken Salad. We finished the bottle during our game of Uno, and rounded off with a bottle of Young’s Double Chocolate Stout; a surprisingly nice stout, which we’ll drink again. A deep flavoured stout makes for a nice dessert and keeps your fingers out of the candy bag 🙂
One common problem with technology these days is that the development of new “gadgets” moves forward so rapidly that manufacturers often cannot, or will not, keep a good stock of replacement or spare parts. So it was with a shaking of my head I had to realize that the power supply for my SoHo wireless router, the D-Link 624+, had gone to a better place for dead electronic parts.
