Made sweet-n-sour chicken, roasted cauliflower and stuffing.

I agree, IL. Our anniversary is within four days of Valentine's Day. Suffice to say that I do NOT get flowers for my anniversary! LOL. (But I'm...

Donation pick-up just happened - two full xerox boxes. I was actually putting a few more items in when the truck pulled up. LOL

Yes, they are! I actually made candied rose petals once. Not too bad. :) Happy Rose Day!

Made a really good stir fry last night! Now at a loss for tonight. LOL

That painting is definitely a perfect fit for you, IL!

I pretty much follow the same line of thinking as catherine. I'm not one for social media to begin with but my dh is. I've had to tell him to...

Sounds like you have a great trip planned, tradd!

Tradd: I wonder if her conversation on the phone was in Spanish and she just naturally continued her questions to you in that language, instead of...

Wish I were closer to you, IL, as I would take a set or two off your hands. I've always wanted a set of French doors going out to the old deck - now...

Dinner is leftovers. There is a LOT of ham left and some soup from earlier in the week, etc. Plenty for folks to make several meals.

Congrats, beckyliz! That's wonderful!

When getting married, I was more or less indifferent as to whether I changed my name or not, so I did change it. Now my thinking is, I wish I had...

Rice, mixed veggies and ham.

Not sure. Respiratory/sinus issues. Actually will finally be seeing my gp to discuss some of these issues and hopefully see what is truly causing...

If there are any others like my family, then there were way more cases. When we each tested positive via home tests a couple weeks ago, the only...

Totally agree about breakfast being the best meal!!! (Depending on what the breakfast is, though. LOL) Tonight is brown rice and lentil casserole....

Aldi's was just under $4. Only bought 1.

Just got back from Aldi's where I spent about $75. This will carry us for about two weeks - except maybe milk and a few fresh veggies. I usually swap...

Tacos.

Know you were looking forward to this and glad to hear you both enjoyed yourselves.

Right now there are two boxes and one brown paper grocery bag on the floor of my living room. And here I thought my house would be neater once the...

I never minded being called for jury duty except for the "pay" issues (other jobs were all no-work-no-pay regardless of why).

lol

That is so pretty, Kay!

I enjoy traveling - including international. Was never really able to do much of it in my younger days (some, but not what I consider a lot). Now, I...

Yes, it is. One of the kids' SO is Vietnamese and told me. Interesting that different countries have different "Year of the ...".

Wow! Amazing chandelier! Glad you found something you like.

Lol. Love it! Beautiful bird.

Good for you, Rob! Your progress into getting and then doing this job has been wonderful. :)

Contemplating going out to celebrate Lunar New Year. Happy New Year, everyone! Year of the Rabbit.

I do the oven method and actually just cook the whole pack at once. The extra is put in a container in the fridge and just the desired number of...

Love the puzzle, rr. And, man, what a back-story!!!

Homemade pizza. Already have the sourdough crust made. Just need to cook it up and put the toppings together.

Access to the world. Growing up it seemed that I only heard about "rich" people going on trips to countries on other continents. Now even *I* can go...

Sci-fi/fantasty was/is my favorite genre. I still have paperback copies of my favorites - Telzy series, Fuzzy Sapien series, Stephen R Donaldson's...

Really not to be argumentative, but there were times when there was nothing left to build an emergency fund with. As I said, we did the best we could...

I can relate. But then I just remind myself that we did the best we could at the time. I think what a lot of people forget is that finances - no...

Wow! Absolutely beautiful!

LOL. Too funny, rr, but you are probably right. Hold on to that glycerin!

I will admit to having grown lax in my masking, but will now be resuming more stringent personal wearing criteria. I have to wear a mask at work for...

This kept me nicely occupied while isolated with COVID. 1000 pieces but the difficult part was the fact that - except for the edges - there were only...

Beautiful sunroom, IL!

I actually learned how to iron in the service - had to keep those uniforms crisp! LOL. Once we were married, I taught dh how to iron. With his...

Black bean soup and, if I feel motivated, some cornbread.

Completed the cleaning and reorganizing of the pantry. Still packed, but definitely neater.

Love pockets as well. Cargo pants are a must at work as I can carry the things I need/want throughout the night. Actually want a couple more pairs to...

Being at home now, I'm slowly taking the christmas tree down and going through the christmas boxes at the same time. Checking with kids if they want...

So sorry, Tradd. Condolences to the family and you.

Thanks, everyone. We are both home from work for the week and isolating.

Very cute, lbb.

These are similar to the ones I bought (but not as expensive). ...

Homemade chicken popcorn bowls.

I know it was inevitable. Dh and I both tested positive today. We have both notified work and are awaiting information on their protocols. Child is...
