Marcia, Diane, and I invite you to catch a glimpse of what you\u2019d see if you were a fly on the wall in our homes, at our writing desks, and in our worlds. Come on in, buzz around, see what we&#8217;ve been up to.

It was incredibly expensive, especially since I was adamant that we go with the company most able to replace our floor to (almost) ceiling windows in the kitchen looking out to the woods with the least amount of intrusion on our view. Most companies&#8217; windows had such large frames we&#8217;d lose a lot of that view.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: lucida calligraphy; font-size: large;\">So, we ended up going with a more expensive option. The bill was $50,000.<\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-family: lucida calligraphy; font-size: large;\">This month, Hubs put in the paperwork with our power company to get a rebate they offered, per window, for those windows that meet a specific insulation threshold. All of ours did. A few days later, I got a text from Hubs:<\/p>\n<p>Hubs: I forgot to tell you I submitted the rebate request online for the windows. It could take up to 60 days to get it.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: lucida calligraphy; font-size: large;\">Me: It won&#8217;t be a credit on our bill, they&#8217;ll send us a check?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: lucida calligraphy; font-size: large;\">Hubs: Yes, $825.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: lucida calligraphy; font-size: large;\">Me: That&#8217;s all?

He buys and sells limited edition and rare albums, most all genres, but mostly rap. He flew into NYC for 2 days to go to a pop up store a local underground rapper (one of College Boys&#8217; favorites) was having to sell his newest album and merchandise. He spent the day with the artist, talked to his wife, and had his picture taken in some of the clothing being sold.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">This month, he flew back to NYC. Another favorite artist who almost never does live concerts, was doing one at Lincoln Center on the night before Thanksgiving. College Boy was comp&#8217;d a ticket, merchandise, and a quick meeting with the artist.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">It was a great experience, but I was really concerned. He was flying into NYC the Tuesday before Thanksgiving and flying home out of Newark, NJ on Thanksgiving Day. Air travel is a nightmare at the best of times, but two days before Thanksgiving? He could have ended up stuck anywhere.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Flights were perfect. He was SO lucky.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Until:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Two days after he got home, an initial bill came in the mail for over $400. Someone went into the Verizon store in Newark, started an account with College Boy&#8217;s name and address, and walked out with phones and an iPad at a charge of over $400 per month (X 36 months = a hell of a lot of money).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">So, a deferred nightmare.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;lucida calligraphy&quot;;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: medium;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEiVKpQsjjv0dBbbMOMKMJzR6x9sccahT9Pt67V3D9yPcVzcn2Bp_kjf2EGy-hQFL3l-xisGZjrlGPUHar_9weXNGnbPAm96dQCjudxOJVlZhjQi58DoVqXGBVYuJiCj-_qv194HiQIlYPI\/s507\/FotW+2019.jpg\" style=\"clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Fly on the Wall, a multi-blogger writing challenge | developed and run by www.BakingInATornado.com | #MyGraphics\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"507\" data-original-width=\"506\" height=\"320\" src=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEiVKpQsjjv0dBbbMOMKMJzR6x9sccahT9Pt67V3D9yPcVzcn2Bp_kjf2EGy-hQFL3l-xisGZjrlGPUHar_9weXNGnbPAm96dQCjudxOJVlZhjQi58DoVqXGBVYuJiCj-_qv194HiQIlYPI\/w319-h320\/FotW+2019.jpg\" title=\"Fly on the Wall by Baking In A Tornado\" width=\"319\"\/><\/a><span style=\"font-family: &quot;segoe print&quot;; font-size: x-large;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;segoe print&quot;; font-size: xx-large;\">Now click on the links below\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-family: &quot;segoe print&quot;; font-size: xx-large;\">and see what my friends have to share:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;lucida calligraphy&quot;;\"><\/p>\n<div style=\"font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: medium;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEj4IKcC2J9VtGIJHloIQ1av8Jf-w41o4lyY_wsR-7Pw3OzlcrhEI5b0u1NgTuEMzIJ5fvIrrQ_AdIQXDx9kB7HcSwwk-nra_F65vA-hgBEtLcTCo6Pci9hsq8JjJZWBAbYPVT-w5EGJ-E8\/s1600\/Baking+In+A+Tornado.jpg\" style=\"clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em; text-align: -webkit-center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Baking In A Tornado signature | www.BakingInATornado.com | #MyGraphics\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"70\" data-original-width=\"215\" src=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEj4IKcC2J9VtGIJHloIQ1av8Jf-w41o4lyY_wsR-7Pw3OzlcrhEI5b0u1NgTuEMzIJ5fvIrrQ_AdIQXDx9kB7HcSwwk-nra_F65vA-hgBEtLcTCo6Pci9hsq8JjJZWBAbYPVT-w5EGJ-E8\/s1600\/Baking+In+A+Tornado.jpg\" title=\"Baking In A Tornado signature | www.BakingInATornado.com | #MyGraphics\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size: x-large;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span><\/p>\n<div style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;tahoma&quot;; font-size: large;\"><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;tahoma&quot;;\"><u>Cookie Butter Shortbreads<\/u><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: &quot;tahoma&quot;; font-size: large;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a9www.BakingInATornado.com<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-family: &quot;tahoma&quot;; font-size: large;\"><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><u><span style=\"font-family: &quot;tahoma&quot;; font-size: large;\">Ingredients:<\/span><\/u><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: &quot;tahoma&quot;; font-size: large;\">1 3\/4 sticks butter, room temperature<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: &quot;tahoma&quot;; font-size: large;\">1\/2 cup speculoos (cookie butter)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: &quot;tahoma&quot;; font-size: large;\">1\/4 tsp cinnamon<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: &quot;tahoma&quot;; font-size: large;\">1\/8 tsp nutmeg<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: &quot;tahoma&quot;; font-size: large;\">1 cup powdered sugar<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: &quot;tahoma&quot;; font-size: large;\">2 cups flour<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma;\">OPT: colored sanding sugar and\/or cinnamon sugar<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: &quot;tahoma&quot;; font-size: large;\"><u>Directions:<\/u><br \/>*Cream the butter, cookie butter, cinnamon and nutmeg until smooth.
