OCT 19, 19 .. TIDBITS FOR PATTI .. WHILE TRACKING BASEBALL’S GAME 6 OF THE ALCS

Multi-Tasking.

Not a good recipe for Your Captain!

I’m trying to get this post together AND (at the same time) I’m following the sixth game of the American League (Baseball) Championship Series. If the Houston Astros win they go to the World Series. If the New York Yankees win, there will be a game 7 tomorrow!

There is quite a long delay (several minutes) between the actual game and what I am getting on-line. 

Oh No! Top of the ninth inning and the New York Yankees have just tied the game 4-4 on a home run.

Here we go with..

A FEW .. TIDBITS FOR PATTI

MY TUNA STASH 

I DO NOT PLAN TO RUN-OUT OF MY SUPPLY of Korean HOT PEPPER TUNA.

STOP THE PRESS CAPTAIN ..

Patti just called and asked me..

“Cap! Where are you in the game?”

I replied..

“Bottom of the ninth inning, Houston has two outs and a man on first base. The pitch count on the batter is 2-1.”

Patti said..

“Keep watching Cap! STAY WITH the game.”

WOW !!

The Houston Astros capped an instant classic American League Championship Series Game 6 against the New York Yankees on Saturday with a walk-off pennant clincher to secure the third World Series trip in franchise history and their second in three seasons, advancing to play the Washington Nationals this upcoming October the 22nd on Jose Altuve’s homer in the ninth inning at Minute Maid Park, Houston, Texas.

The time has come the Walrus said for me to hit the re-start button here.

MY TUNA STASH

I DO NOT PLAN TO RUN-OUT OF MY SUPPLY of Korean HOT PEPPER TUNA.

MY NESTLE FITNESS FOOD BARS

I’ve told Patti about these Nestle food bars and NO!, they will not totally replace my mini-Snicker bars but they do give me a healthier alternative to eat with breakfast to begin my day or..

For a power-snack coupled with Mongolian Black Bread / peanut butter and a 1/2 liter bottle of my water / juice.

The good-news is the fact that the NOMIN Supermarket chain carries them and I do 90% of my shopping at my local NOMIN Supermarket. By the way, the NOMIN Supermarkets also stock my Korean HOT PEPPER TUNA.

You’ve already seen me bringing some home.

There are three flavors.

Up close and very personal.

Have I a favorite? No not really. The strawberry food bars (in the center above) are the most flavorful but actually I like all of them.

I HAVE REALLY PERFECTED MY SYSTEM TO MIX MY WATER / JUICE.

I started with an empty 5 liter water bottle.

I removed its label (what a job that was) and then calibrated it with yellow tape to indicate different levels of water.

My end goal is to prepare the correct amount of water / juice to fill five 1/2 liter bottles with my mixture of 400 ml of water and 100 ml of juice. In the below photo, the bottle has 2 liters of water in it. My measuring cup has 1/2 liter (500 ml) of juice. 

Below I’ve added the 1/2 liter of juice to the 2 liters of water. 

I now have the exact amount of water / juice to fill five of my 1/2-liter bottles.

Voila. Below you have five bottles of  my water / juice mix ready to drink.

So I never come close to running out of my mix, I use nine of the 1/2 liter bottles.

Enough for today? 

I think yes!
