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.
How about a smoothie shake? LOL
I think it qualifies as a smoothie with kale and spinach! Plus tons on fruit.
Hubs had a chiropractic adjustment today, he's kinda silent, and a grouch.
I got up early at 7 a.m., after waking at 3 a.m. to 5 a.m.
I feel like I am off-duty now. He asked me to change his appointment next week to a less busy time. I said no. It's Friday, and I was feeling so much better myself, pain in lt. knee and rt. elbow has subsided after drinking black cherry juice. I was on crutches, but no more. It started the day the night time temps dropped.
I did not get an adjustment because there was no 6 ft. social distancing in the very busy office.
It was smooth, ooowie!
The ice cream and yogurt were a small portion of the ingredients:
Apple juice, rice milk, greek yogurt, ice cream, all organic
banana, blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, kale, spinach.
Is it too cold for smoothies in your area Cwillie?
How about hot cocoa before bed, or spiced apple cider? Hot tea? 🍵
Wheat Thins with low fat cottage cheese
Dinner:
Green pepper pizza 2 slices.
When does it start to snow in your area and how long does it continue for? I could not handle those long winters.
May try it. I do cook different veggie lasagnas. I do spinach. I also make an eggplant one. Sometimes I do a broccoli and carrot one.
Does anyone else do veggie lasagna? If so, what kind?
First you make a roux! That’s how so many southern recipes go. Here in new Orleans we use flour for gravy.
It’s practice. You’ll soon get the hang of it.
I've never had anyone to cook for but myself so my skills are a bit behind, I feel like, but I'm learning... and I enjoy experimentation and learning some new tricks.
Making simple sauces and gravy from scratch is a good cooking skill to have.
**Thank you very much for the encouragement on my new classes, all!
Stock up on the wine dear.
I am going to allow myself to buy a nice bottle of good white wine. Something with a pretty label.
Then I am making up a big batch of my LETHAL recipe for Buffalo Hot Wing Pasta Sauce. Then I am going to cook up my best linquinie. Then I am going to eat an overdose amount of all that. Will have to share the white wine, so will be hard to overdose on that.
I don't think it will all really kill me (though some may support that idea), but I do think it will make the last episode of Breaking Bad go down a bit more smoothly. If I don't show up in the a.m. you will know it DID kill me.
