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.
Here it is leftover chicken and noodles; too hot to cook something...made a bean(SSSSSS) salad for tomorrow- letting it marinate because it has lots of red onion in it so it will be even better with a sandwich or something on grill tomorrow...also going to be hot.
Have a nice breakfast today 🍳🍊🍩☕️
Last trip to Ralph's (Kroger) much of the fruit was hard and cold - picked and kept in storage no doubt, but there were some bags with a half dozen or so for $2.99 which have been pretty good
Otherwise, place those peaches and plums in a paper lunch bag and they might ripen better
All the one's Iv'e tried look ripe and ready and then they're as hard as a rock when I cut them up.I'm having good luck with cantaloupe's though...
Glad...How about a popcicle or a chicken salad sandwich?Or chocolate's ALWAYS good~
Doritos nearly got stuck in the vending machine
Had a nice juicy peach before falling into bed
Waiting to pick up dH at 9:30 for dinner.....at a loss.
Sheesh, I can do better than this!!!
Yay !
Ugggh
Pneumonia and brown purée - Let the pinching begin 🦀
PS. After the first good pinch ask them if they want another
As I say to the Viking at bedtime - dream about breakfast
While I might be able to eat cold pizza for breakfast - or at least I could in college- I couldn't get chicken down in the morning
Give me that bowl of oatmeal
Did they purée the lasagna for mom?
Going out tonight for prime rib, mashed potatoes and veggies.
Have a good weekend everyone!
As to cooking..tonight we are having an old fashioned breakfast for dinner...sausage, scrambled eggs and toast. Tomorrow making an old fashioned roast with potatoes and carrots.
omg, not you too!
I gave up my entertainment when they took away the time stamps and dates on our posts.
Wish they would put them back.
What is this new trend to have NO DATES, even watching the news, one can never tell what day they were reporting on. Was it last year on the fourth of July?
Food plans for the 4th? I am checking now the expiration dates on the canned food.
Yep, all expired. I will send them all over to Ali, the iron stomach girl.
Prayers go up each time I notice you are missing from the forum.
Hoping you will soon get home. Then we can call it walking pneumonia?
Pinch someone, I think bad behaviors can get you discharged sooner.
SO sorry to hear you have/had pneumonia. I've had it 3 times and never want it again. I can't believe how tired you get. I was exhausted just walking from the living room to the kitchen.
And so sorry about the 'cow plop' food. Isn't it terrible what they want us to ingest?
Tell her you'll eat one bite for every bite SHE eats!! Haha
Egads! No salt, no sugar, no fat....what's left to eat?
Could you thin the slop out and pour it down the G-tube?
Get well quick! Hope you're home soon.
Was admitted with pneumonia four days ago and had plans to leave today
Bad thing is, there is usually no such thing as a small case of food poisoning and you spend the next 36 hours in the powder room.
The only good thing about having diverticulitis was loosing 17 lbs. Ten came back, darn it.
I hope, in your case, there's not a bacteria in sight! 🍗
Is it bad that I think a small case of food poisoning wouldn't be a bad thing for my waistline...? (Kidding! Sort of... lol)
Sorry. This says no.
"Cooked food sitting at room temperature is in what the USDA calls the "Danger Zone," which is between 40°F and 140°F. In this range of temperatures, bacteria grows rapidly and the food can become unsafe to eat, so it should only be left out no more than two hours. Apr 20, 2015."
Cwillie,
I wouldn't be so worried about your cholesterol levels as your SUGAR level. That meal is 90 % carbohydrates (breading for tenders, fries, bread, bbq's sauce, cookie and soda-all carbs). Good you're not diabetic. One eats at KFC for its finger lickin' goodness not to watch carbs! 😋
Send,
I guess you could heat it up in a frying pan on very low heat with a lid (?) I wouldn't try already popped corn in a microwave.
And that's the last thing I remember from last night. hahahahaha! The food is fine. It might be extra soft from sitting in the oven all night, haha, but I don't mind.
Makes for a yummy breakfast! Way better than boring oatmeal, haha.
PS - that's why I've learned to always set a timer!
It's simple. I make the same way most every time, with a few variations in what veggies I add. But... I like it! And it's healthy enough. Nom nom nom nom...
