I Love a Bowl of Something (Day 3738 - 2/18/20)

They used Chaz's alert system on Breakfast Stream today and it worked well. Breakfast Stream has a little bar at the bottom that contains the alerts and chat. Stephen had given Chaz's the old measurements for that bar at some point. So, the bar was 155 pixels instead of 150 pixels tall. This made all the alerts 5 pixels off, so Chaz had to fix the overlay in the middle of the stream. It worked out well that Chaz has Tuesdays and Thursdays off, since he can watch the behind the scenes of the stream to make sure all the bases are accounted for.

Today, they are sending off Mallory's Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island - "Twins" painting. Stephen says that he enjoys having Mal's work around and getting a chance to see it. Mal says that this painting will be sent to Texas.

Afterwards, they have lunch at Panera Bread. Stephen says that he has been critical of Panera Bread in the past, but their meal today looks good. Then, he talks about how he is going to see his doctor tomorrow to talk about the results of his blood test. He mentions that he had already seen the results as they were emailed to him. Stephen says that he has a few concerns, but he will talk more about it after his doctor's appointment tomorrow.

Later, they had bought a salmon fillet which they cut in half for dinner. They are having the salmon fillet with some Brussels sprouts and rice. Stephen says that Brussels sprouts are delicious and that he knows some people don't like it, but he highly recommends them. He talks about how they usually get them in a microwavable pack since it's convenient and tastes about the same as cooking fresh Brussel sprouts. There is sometimes a bad batch where the Brussels sprouts are tough, but it's more convenient to microwave them.

Stephen says that they haven't had a plated meal with a protein, vegetable, and starch in a while. They don't always show them cooking their meals especially if it's a meal they've made before. Lately, they have been having food that is put into a bowl which is a good thing because he loves a bowl of something. He says that they have bigger plates now so their small table can't fit both of their plates. Then, he talks about how vlogs are almost caught up, but he won't get excited about it. Stephen says that there have been times when he is almost caught up with vlogs and ends up spending time on one thing for a whole entire day which puts him behind on vlogs again. He did a lot of work today and he has reached a point where he can just enjoy his dinner without having to think of other things. Kepler then comes and sniffs their plates. Stephen says that the cats always come by and sniff their meals.
