The Kitchen Table

It's here! It's today!

10 years ago

It's the start (for the most part) of the new television season. We're looking forward to new episodes of the shows we watch, like NCIS, Blood Brothers, The Good Wife, and Scorpion to name a few. Plus maybe finding some new shows to watch. What are you happy about seeing again? What new shows are you going to try out? (Just watched Life in Pieces...but won't say anything for those in other time zones.)

I'm watching Scorpion, right now. Even though it's usually unbelievable, it's still fascinating, and I really hope there might be some people as smart as the team on Scorpion

We send at least two teams per year, but we haven't been able to get in the country for a year now, due to the unstable conditions before and immediately after the elections. I haven't checked lately to see how the new President is doing. The small orphanage we support is administered by Dr. Hubert Morquette, who is a wonderful Haitian physician who returned to his country after being education elsewhere. You bring up a very important point....as the kids reach a certain age they need to learn some skills or advanced education to find some work, and even with those skills there's not much to do in the Haitian economy. Several of the older kids have been adopted and brought to the U.S. by families who were fearful of their future in Haiti. As is the case in many parts of the world, the only ones left after the govt's leave are the faith based organizations, which is true in Haiti. The U.S. government has once again withdrawn Peace Corps Volunteers, and it looks as though they have abandoned the mission there. There are no plans to reinstate Peace Corps in that country.

Mine came the beginning of last week but I didn't have time to drool my way through it for a few days. I always have a lust list from the previous year that I try to finish off either with the % off right away or wait for the 50% off sale. Either way they guarantee the plants, no strings attached. I got a cimicifuga racemosa during the sale last year that didn't make it so they're sending me another one this coming spring. This will be my fourth year ordering from them and everything has grown and thrived. Great plants & customer service I haven't found anywhere else online.

riverrat1 - this is one of the few places where people could understand someone having a jam collection! That is one delicious sounding package. I'm pretty sure no one else here would appreciate the tangerine marmalade as much as I would. Or the blackberry jam. So if you would be so kind, just put them back in the box, stuff a little newspaper in there (you know, to keep them from breaking - wouldn't want them bouncing around like bb's in a boxcar, now would we?) and ship them on over here. Oh, and I tasted pickled watermelon rind for the first time this past June asn LOVED it. You can put that one in there too, just to balance out the box. Thanks.

Ohhhh, I know what you mean! I had a day or two last week when no one was here -- just heavenly! While I know that no workers, means no progress, I was just so grateful to have the house to myself for a few hours that I didn't care. Today - electricians all day, painters, tiling in master bath, brick layers outside -- trip to the grocery store was a welcome relief!

Mawheel, there probably are people that smart, but the supposed "real" guy is a conman who can't prove any of his claims about his history. Which doesn't matter a bit considering that the show is scripted fiction. :)

I'm not so much looking forward to a particular show as a lack of nothing. I had no idea how bad recent movies were until I tried finding some to put on during the break between Summer and Fall shows. Whiplash was excellent. Limitless (movie) was okay, but predictable; visually interesting. That's about it. I'm most looking forward to Empire and Heroes Reborn. I don't know if they can keep up the amazing quality of Empire over the long haul, but the opening run was outstanding, and it's worth watching just to see Taraji P. Henson work.

Big Bang. I'm sad last night's episode ended the way it did, but understand why. Stuart was hilarious the entire episode though.

I have Big Bang Theory taped and Blindspot. Sounds like blindspot might be a miss.

No more spoilers about Big Bang, please..

Yeah, I watched Blindspot, too. It was so amazingly poorly written! Usually the pilots are really well polished and it's the shows that can't keep up going forward. The premise is ludicrous, as presented, and the Bourne level "action" was cartoonish at best.

Tried to watch Life in Pieces...but won't say anything because Flower's mother said if you can't say something nice................

Still watching Significant Mother. Story line is pretty good. No really icky lines just for "laughs" that aren't funny or in good taste. It's more like people that I know act, not like people on TV act.

I'm looking forward to watching How to Get Away with Murder again.

Blood and Oil is also on our to-watch list.
