Sunday Egg Omelet with Sausage - An Alan Specialty. If I see a lot of interest, I will gladly post more. #Breakfast
Here is an egg omelet with genuine New York Bagels! Also known as "Eggs looking at you, kid." I hope you enjoy as much as I enjoyed making - and devouring them! (The nose is a sausage patty, and the mustache is cheesy) #Breakfast
Why Bitcoin Matters. A short read, not very technical. https://bitcoinmoneyman.com/blog/2018/05/25/why-bitcoin-matters/ #Bitcoin
What are the incentives for modern governments with fiats to adopt Bitcoin, aka cryptocurrency? **It’s all about:** **CONTROL.** **A government controls its currency and will not be able to control/dominate Bitcoin (unless it mines its own coin, as the currency of the realm).** Bitcoin purchases and transfers are “peer to peer” transactions.

Today's breakfast on the run - scrambled egg with cheese, meatless sausage patty, on an English muffin. It was easy to make, and really tasty. #Breakfast
This is Mooch, A big Maine Coon with a heart. Fearsome mouser, and passionate protector of his turf. He was with me for years, and befriended his predecessor, Sunkist, so the aging cat could eat without being provoked. I kept feeding him afterwards and he became a great companion. He is missed, and gave me a new respect for the Maine Coon, a gentle giant among cats. #CatS

I am considering buying more Doge - What are the best exchanges? I had a wallet on my PC, but it never updated properly, so I would rather work with an exchange. I have Coinbase and CEX.io accounts.... Any recommendations? #Dogecoin
Deauville 1938 by Raul Dufy. A fine print hanging on my wall. Time stands still while I stare at it. Do you like it? #WallArt

Silver Strike Coins. A $10 gaming token from the Silver Strike slot machine. Very collectible, and there are still machines at the 4 Queens and the El Cortez. Here is my Blog about it - It's a piece of old Vegas I really enjoy! I hope you like it as well. eBay and coin shops sell them too. #LasVegas
I have been a woodworker all my life. I hope you enjoy my blog about it. This chess table was made by my Dad in the 70's, I refinished it and use it as my kitchen dining table. one day it will belong to my children. https://chenkinworkshop.com/blog/2020/09/21/basic-woodworking-is-fun-and-generates-a-sense-of-accomplishment-and-achievement/ #Woodworking
1Q allows you to make money answering marketing questions, based on your gender, age, and location.

I wrote this before I found some CEO's to admire. It is still timely today. There are still individuals who sop up all the value of a company and grudgingly reward their workers, if at all. I am pleased to share "Where are the Hero CEO's" I am contemplating a list of exceptional CEO's, and sending them some good press. https://thechenkinreport.com/blog/2009/03/ Edit-Thank you for the likes and tips! I am grateful to you! #Money
A good breakfast always works for me. Mine even smiles. Hehehe. New York bagel, Egg omelet with sausage patty and cheesy moustache! (and coffee - my go-to energy drink!)
There is a "Supermoon" tonight, and it is bright and wonderful. This picture was taken in Bethesda, Maryland, USA, with a google Pixel4 camera. I shared this in case it is cloudy by you. enjoy the wonder of our night time sky! https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/news/1818/the-next-full-moon-is-a-supermoon-pink-moon/? #SuperMoon
Two hot dogs with relish and mustard, with a side of air fryer French fried potatoes. A comforting if not overly healthy dinner!
My favorite breakfast - Veggie Omelet, Turkey bacon, half of a toasted bagel, and Kona Coffee! A good way to start the day! I have been partial to Kona coffee since I visited Hawaii; I got these beans from Amazon, and grind them just before brewing. Coffee Heaven! The beans are available at https://amzn.to/3eCcHxo It's a Kona blend, so the coffee is 10% Grown in Hawaii. Aloha from Maryland!
I have been receiving many Facebook requests from women with lovely pictures, no history (or anything in common) - and all their friends are Nigerian. I usually deny these requests, but wonder if they are related to the nice prince who wants to help me get my dead relatives millions out of the country.
since I read a post about farm fresh sweet corn yesterday, I have been fantasizing about sweet corn on the cob. Next food run I will see if I can pick some up.
I built this keychain display for my daughter. She has lots more keychains, but this is a gift from Dad that can show off her favorites! Shameless self promotion - you can read about it on my blog: https://chenkinworkshop.com/blog/tag/keychain-cabinet/ I hope you get inspired to do wonderful things for those you love!
This is Leonidas, my girlfriends cat. He is over 10 years old, and was rescued from an air duct by her teenage son. Today Leo was diagnosed with a large intestinal tumor, and the diagnosis is terminal. He is not suffering, and is getting all the shrimp (his favorite food) he wants. He is a gentleman and a great cat to have around. I will do my best to help him on his last days, and will miss him greatly. Thank you for reading this. #CatS
I found a gaming site that pays off in Bitcoin, Doge, Ethereum, and RollerToken, and appears legit and fun. I wrote about it on my blog, and hope you will enjoy it as well. https://bitcoinmoneyman.com/blog/2021/04/30/free-bitcoin-by-playing-games/ #Bitcoin
Todays breakfast; spinach veggie omelet with a NY style bagel, with a cup of flaming hot Majorca coffee. And yes, I did put cream cheese and jelly on on my bagel. Because water bagels are so calorie intensive, I cut them into halves, toast them and cut the half into 2 quarter slices. In essence I am eating half a bagel, even though it feels like a whole one cut in half.
