What Can’t a Rolling Stone Get?

It appears Younger Sister isn’t the only person to have led a sheltered existence, grew up under a rock because, when a young woman, as part of the latest TikTok trend, walked around her office and asked her coworkers, "What Can’t a Rolling Stone Get?" no one knew the answer.

Who ARE these people? was my thought. How could they not know the answer?.

I could understand when the previous trend was to ask — "It’s 7 o’clock. Where’s Usher?" because not everyone knows Usher’s music. However, even if you’re not into music ... period, one has to have heard the song that is the answer to the question, "What can't a rolling stone get?" because the song is so iconic.

In case you’re wondering ... I’m not going to say what a rolling stone can’t get because, of course, you all know the answer. However, inasmuch as not everyone is familiar with singer/songwriter Usher's music ... the answer is a play on his song where he sings "It’s seven o’clock on the dot. I’m in my drop top, cruisin’ the streets".

Ergo, the answer to "It’s 7 o’clock, where’s Usher?" is "He’s in his drop top, cruisin' the streets".

So, anyway, weekend over, it’s back to the same ol’ same ol’.

After spending Saturday getting a pedi, no mani and looking at patio chairs, I returned to the complex, pulled out my little sushi machine and tried out the sushi knife that arrived a few days earlier.

I wasn’t planning on springing for a legit sushi knife — they’re too expensive, but tired of sawing sushi with a kitchen knife, seeing an ad for one of those expensive knives at half price from a reputable Cutlery shoppe, I gave it a go.

Smooth like butter.

I’ve been making sushi all weekend.

On Saturday, the filling was leftover salmon, avocado, carrot, cucumber.

Sunday’s filling was a recipe I’d been wanting to try — yam and avocado.

Yam sushi was the best because it had a little sweet taste to it. I’ll use that recipe again, but maybe add kale.

There's still enough left for today's lunch.

Having decided on an Egg-Shaped patio chair, I did my homework and learned the affordable ones made of bamboo are not a good bet. I get direct sunlight on my patio, while the care section indicated they need to be in the shade and protected from rain/water — not at all weather resistant. Egg-Shaped made of iron or steel was suggested.

Found one I really like.

It's described as being made of “steel frame and handwoven PE wicker that withstands the elements and can survive outside”, but it’s waaaay too expensive, comes in three parts — which reviewers did say were easy to put together and, lastly, it weighs 330 pounds.

I don’t think I can manipulate the three pieces at, let’s say, 110 pounds each. Plus, 330 seems too much weight for the patio.

I don’t generally sit outside anyway, so I’m going to save myself grief and money by trashing the old red Adirondack chair and leaving the patio bare.

After all, a bare patio gives me more space to fill with Halloween and Christmas decorations.
