Sorry to say, but this site has been so depressing for a few days. I thought I'd ask an average, everyday question....to make us all feel a little more normal today.
I made Eggplant Lasagna, and my BIL and SIL are coming for dinner. They leave for Cali tomorrow to see their beautiful grand daughter.
Sorry, sometimes we just need some REGULAR conversation.......or at least THIS caregiver does.
Lactaid.
Loved my Dometic RV refrigerator!
If I could, I would convert my home to propane. It is the best energy source I have ever used. Unfortunately, tis not going to happen.
I have been shopping for refrigerators and they do make propane refrigerators for the home. I think the propane tank has to sit outside though.
Having an RV is the solution for emergencies! Having it's own generator, refrigerator, toilet, just get in and drive away!
Thanks for that. Good information!
Cwillie,
I had an oven long ago that was called 'continuous clean'. That meant to me it was continuously dirty. Then came the 'self cleaning' oven.
Yes, I know you were talking about freezers self-defrosting, but who is going to admit to being t h a t o l d ?
Have you heard that SCE (Southern California Edison) is going into a side business defrosting refrigerators to help out the economy - so people will have to buy new food?
My RV has a propane freezer fridge and the ice cream never gets freezer burn or ice crystals.
Wish we had the option for home use.
Oops: just read TNts post, yep, totally agree.
Frozen items are not as good after a few months in the freezer.
I am seeking a satisfying meal, but I don't know what it is. Maybe it's lots of mac n' cheese, or a hot fudge sundae, but trying to eat better has me all confused.
Glad to see that I am not the only one who wanted to stir fry a Kale salad.
And, I do need to visit that frozen pkg. of chicken breasts in the freezer, who knows how long that's been in there.
So many good ideas, just by checking in on what others have done.
I've got some cooked chicken from the freezer as the main and I picked up a last day of sale kale salad kit at half price, my plan is to stir fry the veggies and eat them with a package of chicken fried rice (I'll save the dressing and extras for another salad). I'm not sure whether I'll mix the two together or keep them separate, I'll decide once I eyeball how much of each I have.
Some almonds in the rice might be nice too.
Hmmm, maybe some raisins too? No, make that dried apricots!
My grandmother used to pick crabs and make the best stuffed crabs. If I reached for a bite of the piled up crabmeat that she had picked, she would slap my hand and tell me ‘No!’ LOL
I don’t think I would have the discipline to never take a taste of the crabmeat like she did. Crabmeat is so delicious! There are lots of delicious recipes for crabmeat, crabmeat au gratin, stuffed crabs or crab cakes, crab dip, etc.
I love zucchini bread but I haven’t ever had chocolate zucchini bread. Sounds wonderful! I love all kinds of soup.
We had a salad and stuffed bell peppers.
