It's official

Well, i didnt want to think about the inevitable, the ol' 03 ram 1500 has reached the end if it's days. I grew up with this truck, theres photos of me as a baby in it, and i never wanted to think it would have to go, but it was with me from my childhood to my adulthood, and it's time to say goodbye. in the next couple days, 23 years of service and memories and 2 owners will be reduced to a cube in a landfill.

EDIT: Before commenting asking why we are getting rid of it, i put answers in the comments. this angle doesnt show how rusted through it is and doesnt show the internal issues you can only take my word for. it has a bad alternator, bad battery, bad fuel pump, brakes are shot, and hell, could have more wrong.

Back from the dead!!

my xbox has been serving me and a previous owner well for 19 years. not letting it die on me now! i can officially add "survived the 3 light RROD" to it's list of accomplishments

EDIT: Because it wasnt too visible this is 3 lights and not 4, i have an HDMI supported board so 4 isnt possible for me. Issue was a failed GPU.

Finally picked my next cars

Just picked out some more cars, for a grand total of $65! I got a yellow honda fit / jazz, a blue toyota yaris / vitz (of which doesnt come with the box and i cant find a photo of the box..my car will be a much darker blue), and a nissan juke. 3 cars coming from 3 different countries, very excited to have cars from so far around the world! what ones out of these is your favorite whether irl or as a diecast, and does anyone else happen to own some of these?

(photos not mine, all photos except first not from the exact listings)

First serious diecast

not anything flashy but the element is one of, if not my favorite, cars of all time. close follow ups are the honda fit, chevrolet spark, and toyota yaris. My next cars will be 2 fits and a yaris and my next big goal is the tomy leisure cars honda set.

Crazy leg pose going on

not a mirror per se, another reflective surface, but really, what is a mirror but simply a reflective surface of its own?

No bake honey cookies

this isnt allrecipies, so i'll spare you the extremely long paragraph about my 3x great grandma..all you need to know is i harvest my own honey which is how i came up with this recipe.

ingredients:

RAW honey NOT STOREBOUGHT!!!!! Storebought is corn syrup crap.

Corn flakes (can be generic brand, i use great value)

Sugar

Creamy peanut butter

Equipment:

Medium pot

Measuring cup (the big glass ones, needs to go to at least 4 cups)

1 cup measuring cup, you need two of them (this time the plastic ones)

3/4 cup measuring cup

Rubber spatulas

2 cookie sheets

Parchment paper

Ice cream scooper (has to be the one with the metal strip that goes underneath, or else it wont release your cookies)

Instructions:

line your cookie sheets before you do anything else.

measure out 1 cup of honey, 1 cup of peanut butter, 4 cups of corn flakes, and 3/4 cups of sugar. Have everything measured before you begin, it will be SO much easier.

in your pot, put in the honey and sugar. Turn the heat to about 2 (or just slightly past low). Stir until the sugar dissolves completely. Youre going to think it disolved quickly, it didnt!! if you stop here your cookies are going to be grainy. stir until the mix is very liquidy and when you press with your spatula and drag, theres no grains.

now add your peanut butter. This one DOES dissolve fast, dont worry. Just stir til it combines with everything else.

finally, turn off your heat and add the corn flakes. This will be a little hard at first but make sure they get evenly coated, And limit the amount of your peanut-sugar-honey slurry that stays at the bottom.

set your pot on a counter, with a hot pad underneath. If you dont have one you can fold a hand towel under it. use your ice cream scooper to scoop the mix until it is JUST to the top, dont make it heaping because these will be a bit big as is. put them onto your lined tray, flatten them a little if you want. If any stray cereal is there, you can use a spoon to re shape your cookie.

and finally, they can be left in the fridge to cool. These are very sweet because of the sugar and honey, just a heads up!
