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.
i dont like being told how to think .
the whole glbt thing comes to mind . im like ; go choke on one , i dont care , in fact i wont have to listen to your self serving drivel for a while ..
peace and quiet . thats what i want .
I have yet to find another occurrence of that one.
i dont go nuts on the prepping but im not in a fragile position either .
waltreason is selling the 2.5 glass barrel jars for about 12 bucks . lovely for staples things . so far i have rice , flour , brown sugar and beans in these . they sure doll up a kitchen .
i have enough canola oil stashed to deep fry a buffalo . now i need a buffalo ..
im not at all paranoid about the state of america but as an old guy -- when presidential candidates are posturing over penis size , it doesnt invoke any real confidence in our leaders either . lol
im hoping to can a hundred quarts of tomatoes this year and make homemade catsup out of all that remain .
canned tomatoes and catsup is about the quickest path i know to a great tomato base ( chili , spaghetti , bbq , etc . )
100 qts isnt unrealistic at all from past experience .
the bees are looking good out at the farm . theyre building comb , raising brood and stashing nectar and pollen . theyre already capping off filled honey cells . im beekeep # 2 . docs son is the studied mastermind behind the project . gotta admit -- its pretty interesting ..
Just a little too on the nose.
Hey, Gurumaraji, I need one Winning Lottery Ticket and one Prince Charming. Can you get those for me??
There will be leftovers for later days.
Thanks for the ideas!
Hey about the salt: Himalayan salt, or sea salt is fine for you. We need salt. Again, it's how big food companies process the salt that made salt unfit for us. And watch that brown bread is not brown due to food coloring! I know. It's endless.
I also like to use guacamole instead of salad dressing in a nice Romaine salad with black olives and heirloom tomatoes.
Kind of like chia seeds. They're supposed to be a superfood, etc - but they create a gel around themselves when added to liquid, so they are used for thickening foods, etc. That gel is enough to gag me. It's slippery and slimy and I'm sorry, food just isn't supposed to be like that. Ew.
