Homemade mac 'n cheese casserole w/peas and sausage.

Thanks. Writing this down to use if this new stuff doesn't work!

Thought I would just reuse this thread. There is a partial solar eclipse this coming Saturday morning. Again, a google search should bring up the...

I'm not sure what this falls under, but I hope it ends up being frugal! LOL. Was looking for something to clean the shower with - lots of soap...

TMS, read to fast and didn't realize your mom also had cancer. Sending even more prayers and positive energies to you both.

Ham and spinach quiche with homemade biscuits.

So nice that your family has been expanding in such a positive way!

A friend made them a long time ago. I enjoyed them, but have never made them myself.

Thanks, IL. You've been very supportive with this and I appreciate it!

Last night was tilapia with steamed broccoli and wheat berries. Not sure about tonight. LOL - interesting that I'm not that well-planned for...

Needed to upload a document for a retirement "thing". Scanned the document, marked it as needed, was in one of their "recommended" browsers and...

Wonderful ideas. Good thread - making me realize I need to step up and start helping where/when I can.

Ditto rr. I'm not due for a couple more years yet, so will look into that when the time comes.

That sounds so good - and healthy!

Oh, pooh. Missed it! Would have loved to participate!

Still haven't finished Les Miserables, but have started Jane Eyre. Enjoying it so far.

Help is always a good thing. So cute!

Since I'm technically still an employee, I decided to post here. This has been my first week of vacation before retirement. I'm still waiting to...

They did this to me a year or so ago. Wanted three "Friends" to confirm my id (did that - didn't work); wanted a photo uploaded (nope, don't do...

Decided to go healthy. Made a big salad last night with seasoned chicken, cheese, dressing and croutons on the side. Yum! I love a good salad!

I guess I need to add this to my list of to-do's. Thanks for the reminders/stories, everyone.

You are all making me think I need to get started with some seeds. I usually don't have any luck at all, but am always game to try. Thanks for the...

Interesting that the Xfinity just made it into my neighborhood, but is still more expensive than my current provider. I was hoping it would be...

LOL. I get it. Then maybe keep a little notebook or something and just write down the amount, keeping a tally of what you save. Reach a certain...

I assume you stop there on the way to somewhere else, so you are in your car? Maybe put a jar in your car and every time you drive buy without buying...

Congrats on not taking anything!! It's hard when it is right in your face and free for the taking. Good job!

Kay, sorry about your sister's far and animals. Glad the cat showed up! Hoping for quick healing for the horses.

Seem to be missing this one as well. Rain over night, but nothing serious (so far) at all. Everyone please stay safe!!!!

Figured I should update the actual job thread. So, I am now on vacation for 11 days!

:laff: At least for a little while to come. LOL

Coworker sprung for dinner last night as a wonderful good-bye treat - Chinese. This afternoon will be birthday lunch with family - soup dumplings! ...

Thanks again to everyone. You have all been so wonderfully supportive. I am now officially on vacation for 11 days! It's all a bit surreal at the...

Thanks again, everyone. I'm glad others got to see it. And the moon last night was still big, bright and beautiful.

That's wonderful! It's fun to share! I'll do the same sometimes with gift cards, especially if it is a place I rarely go. I remember placing an...

Last day of physical work and it's a half day of school. I'll go in early and get out three hours early! Nice way to wrap things up.

I totally agree. It's a great feeling!

Hope you heal quickly, Klunick. I still have all my wisdom teeth and hope it stays that way. Went through my closet and put two pairs of boots and...

Got to see it - beautiful! Since it occurred today, the 14th, I'm claiming it as a personal birthday gift! :laff: Plus, it is my LAST day of...

I'm still hoping to downsize. Just getting a smaller footprint all around. That is where the savings will go, should we find something. Time will...

So how do they compare to jeggings?

Now that the weather is getting a little bit nicer in my area (at least the last couple of days), I've been thinking about your hiking and pics. I...

One-pot meal of diced ham, sauteed cabbage and egg noodles.

I saw this and rather enjoyed it.

It is said that we also have coyotes, but thankfully no dens on my property! Enjoy nature as it happens, but be careful!

:D

Some simplistic questions... Lots of folks are saying they are saving more and more, so my question is where? Are folks saving actual, physical...

I think I'm more like sweetana3 and catherine at this point. Still looking for a place to downsize to that won't take us further away from family...

I also have a Kindle Paperwhite. I'm hoping to start getting more reading time in soon.

As you all know, I usually avoid the Politics thread, but I saw catherine's post mentioning the VA in the "What's New". My primary dr and healthcare...

I echo what everyone else is saying, TMS. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Tonight is going to be chicken and dumplings. Friend is coming over and rest of the family asked. Now I'll be making a double batch. LOL.

I'm so sorry, Tybee. I hope something can be figured out for you.

Oh, that's right! I remember now. Brussel sprouts. (Personally, I love them) LOL

Four actually work days and counting!!!! Then 11 vacation days and then 1st day of retirement on April 1st! Can't even describe what I'm feeling.

I apparently live in a "dead zone". My neighbors have told me that Verizon is available one block south and one block north, but not at my house. Go...

LOL. Please define "trash lettuce".

Put me in the "messy" camp. Housecleaning is NOT my forte! We do not, however, have "filth". And I'm STILL working on the "clutter". LOL

Today will be a broccoli, chicken, cheese in white sauce dish possibly served over barley.

Don't know about "old money", but I met one or two "working money". When I worked at a oil well servicing company in KS, different older gentlemen...
