She made this in her senior-year metal works class at Prospect Mountain High School. Very impressive. A lot of detail. She is very happy. We are treating it like a work of art. She likes metal work. This is meant to be a precursor to her going to college to pursue an engineering degree.

Garmin Vivoactive 3, In Slate, Slated To Be Available In 2 – 3 Weeks NOW Further Delayed!
I check availability of the Garmin Vivoactive 3 — in SLATE — multiple times a day.
It was supposed to be available last Friday, October 20, 2017. But, only the stainless steel is currently available.
Even last night Garmin was claiming 2 – 3 week availability.
This morning they updated that to 3 – 5 weeks. NOT good. That puts it at or BEYOND Black Friday and close to Christmas.

Garmin Vivoactive 3, Stainless Steel, Now Available From Garmin, Amazon & Best Buy — BUT, No ‘Slate’.

Stainless Steel ALSO available from Amazon — at last — with immediate, 2-day delivery. Click for Amazon listing.
So, today is Friday, October 20, 2017 — the day that a Garmin rep. told me that the Vivoactive 3 will be available. Appears not to be the case.
However, at last, the Garmin Vivoactive 3 in stainless steel is now readily available — from Garmin, Amazon & Best Buy, rather than just from Best Buy.
But, I want the Slate! They are now saying 2 – 3 MORE weeks! Yikes.

I have always liked Subway BUT since having an ‘Applewood Pulled Pork‘ chopped salad in mid-August I have been a great fan of their chopped salads.
I even started chopping my salads — and I eat a LOT of salads, near daily on my diet.
Last night on the way back from ‘Revels‘ (or what purported to be ‘Revels’) at Dartmouth we stopped at a Subway — for Devanee and I, before stopping at McDonalds for Teischan. (Deanna was full from our late lunch).
Devanee, at my urging, for a footlong BLT — so that she would have some leftover for today also.
I had the Big Philly Cheesesteak, with added Swiss, in a chopped salad with the Chipotle Dressing. It was divine. Wow.
I could go and eat another of those salads right now.
Their chopped salads are GOOD. If you haven’t tried one please do yourself a favor and think of all the carbs you are avoiding.
Enjoy.
I Asked And Got A ‘Mezzaluna’, i.e., A Salad Chopper, For My Birthday — Thanks To Subway.

>> Praise of Subway chopped salads … — Aug. 18, 2013.
On my very low-carb diet, that I have been on since January 24, 2013, and have lost 22(+) pounds, I tend, by necessity, to eat a lot of salads, especially for dinner. It is not unusual for me to have salads (albeit always with a meat topping) five nights a week — if not more. The days I don’t have a salad I eat a spiced-to extreme [i.e., hot enough to make a Mexican blanche] curry, loaded with vegetables with a lot of turmeric, and cumin and caraway seeds (that according to the quack on CNN is supposed to be very good for you and there must be a grain of truth to it because Indians having been scoffing down these spices for millennia and are still around in large numbers).
I had never really given much thought to salad preparation. I am not really fussy about food. So the notion of finely chopped salads had never really crossed my mind.
Then I had that Applewood Pulled Pork chopped salad at Subway, in mid-August, on the way back from Storyland. It was a revelation. The chopping sure does spread the flavor around. I watched the young girl use a curved chopper in awe.
I wanted ONE. My birthday was coming up and Deanna always complains that she doesn’t know what to get me. So I checked Amazon.
Found this ‘Mezzaluna‘, when I typed in ‘salad chopper’. Put it, and the bowl, in my Wish List and send it to Deanna. Santa, Easter Bunny or the tooth fairy (and I am not really sure which one of these handles birthday presents) did the rest. I got the very ergonomic and pleasing on the hand Mezzaluna. I have used it about 4 times since — taking into account that we have been eating out quite a bit since my birthday. Love it. Really makes a difference.
I typically use sliced, very hot green pepper and one to two stems of scallions in my salads for ‘spice’. This Mezzaluna really grinds it all up. Then I add some salad dressing, mainly Ranch, and do a bit more rocking. That really does the trick.
Highly recommend it.
