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.
That does sound good, but that is a lot of fat. I think I'll look up a recipe on it and try it. Can't hurt!🌽🌽
Sorry, I should have been more clear!☺
Llama, Grilled watermelon is really good and so are grilled plums! Just remember grilling watermelon has to be done quickly or you will have nothing left. Make sure the grill isn't to hot!
@ "Llamalover47," - I've never heard of grilled watermelon. If you try it, you'll have to let us know how it was.
I've heard that animals don't always want to be around their owners when they aren't feeling well or dying. Kind of like how some people are when it's their time. God spared you from having to witness it.
Lucky you, I've always wanted to see New England. Guess that will never happen but saw plenty of snow on my two trips to Alaska back in 1995 and 1996. Gorgeous!
We don't get much snow here, but I hail from New England. That's funny about people going to see the rare event of it in your area or close by/higher elevation.
When I say roast I mean in the husk on the BBQ. Is that what you are talking about? If yes, how do you get butter and water on it?
LOL! I am roasting the corn in butter, salt, and a little water. I'll freeze it with some juice, plus I'm not going to cook it all the way done.
Thank you for your help! 😋
Roasting it might cook it too much. Then it dries out, just be mindful of the time. I love roasted corn, just about the only way we eat it.
The whole freezing the cod sounds great but I don't have the space.
I thought about roasting it then take it off the cod, but then what do I do with it...freeze it or canned it?😵
I was wondering how your roast turned out Isthisrealyreal. I'm glad that it worked out for you.
Strawberry Shortcake with light whip cream.
My dry aged roast was delish. Rich and moist, we cooked it on a mesquite wood fire. Thanks for your input.
Does anyone know how to can or freeze corn easily? Looking for ideas!😜
@"Llamalover47," - oh my gosh, I just saw images of the Oci breed of cat - wow, they look like mini leopards to me. That must have been strange to have Ozzie die of a stroke after having lost your mother and grandmother to strokes. I've never thought of an animal having a stroke. Very sad for all of them!
We don't get snow except in the high country or occasionally in the outlying areas. We did get some a couple of years ago in the outlying areas and everyone came out in droves to park along the roads to take pictures (my husband and I included). Even people from out of state that get snow all the time - it was just because it's rare here.
polar - I can't eat watermelon. Actually I am allergic to it and have only met one other person the same. It gives me major digestive issues. Even the thought of eating it makes me shudder. Other melons -no prob.
Last night's supper - nothing. I wasn't hungry - really strange for me.
WATERMELON SUGAR HIGH.
I would cut 2 apples. I asked her to try both... I loved my apples with lemon and salt...the green apples, lemon and salt, ... yum. so I made one zip lock with plain apple, and one with special lemon and salt... I thought that would do the trick.. not too many kids like that specialty.
Apparently the kid liked it.. She finally told her dad she wanted apples salted with lemon... ??? HUH? He was taken by surprise... And the lil bully had her own little bag of apples... and SHE LIKED THEM :) Lunch was good after that.
went to Hawaii and stayed with friend's friends... True Hawaiian.. the ate their pineapples with salt... I wasn't too thrilled with that...
I have never heard of ocicats but, I can see OCI/Ozzie would be easy and I still think Cleocatra is cute - I did think of Cleopatra right away. Boy, that was sad - Ozzie passing away from a stroke but, wow living over 20 years - that's amazing!
It was 118 two weeks ago when I did another "window visit" - I barely made it back to the car as I became nauseated and feared a heat stroke. We broke our record for the hottest summer - YAY! :(
We had two ocicats - the male we named Ozzie, which was easy. Our daughter came up with our girl's name since Cleocatra had an "Egyptian" look to her and not spots. Cleo lived only to age 12, but Ozzie passed away on June 5, 2019 from a stroke. He lived to be over 20 years old.They were half siblings.
Btw, 116° heat=HOT.
