    I'm terrible! I haven't done a thing! It looks like it will take forever to get the art room back in shape again!

    Life - wonderful life - always throws us curve balls which is what makes planning so difficult. Hang in there!

    16. Cave of Bones by Lee Berger - Berger "discovered" and named a new homo species - Homo naledi. He also lost 50 lbs so he could wiggle into the cave where the bones were found. I felt claustrophobic reading it. 17. The Hope We Keep by Kyla Stone - the apocalypse hits the UP

    Decluttered several t-shirts and a pair of flannel PJ's. I have enough so let someone else enjoy them.

    April 202 Menu Plans

    I see that I started a grilled cheese conversation. I like to put some provolone on mine along with the American cheese. Have sometimes done with tomato. Tried mayo but prefer to stay with the butter. Great with any kind of soup.

    April 202 Menu Plans

    This is why I stopped planning - food that I had thawed for dinner would go uneaten due to changes. Eventually it would go bad in the fridge. I think we're having chicken cutlets tomorrow:)

    Budget Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning

    Egg prices always go up in NYC area around Passover since it is known that it is really the only leavening we can use for baked good. I haven't checked yet. Will hit the big box stores on Tuesday.

    Didn't like the way the cowl was working up so I ripped it out. Went back to working on a shawl that I started a long while ago and will probably continue until I finish it.

    Budget Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning

    Went to the commissary at Jackson NAS (JAX) basically just to look around. Over $7 for a package of bacon! I looked at all the different prices and it was basically an OMG moment. Then I said to myself - this is probably the cheapest price I will find and that was disturbing. And chocolate...

    Let's celebrate

    Let’s not forget Passover, beginning on the evening of April 22, which is also Josh’s half birthday, if you celebrate such things. Then Cinco de Mayo on May 5, celebrating Mexico’s victory over the second French Empire at the Battle of Puebla. Mexicans do not celebrate this holiday as it was...

    March 2024 Declutter Club

    I have no friends down here and when we stayed home for two years - Covid and DH's hip - I really didn't miss it. Also, we could use the money we get from selling it for other things. Surprisingly it was not to hard to convince DH to sell. For the next few years we will go somewhere warmer in...
