The Beef Wellington was very, very good. The recipe used finely chopped mushrooms that were sautéed to remove the moisture instead of fois gras. And puff pastry.
With the remaining puff pastry...
After church made what I thought would be a quick trip to pick up stuff for the Beef Wellington that Twin B wants to make. But ended up having to go to 2 grocery stores. It is cold (42) and I just...
Again, thanks for the pictures, J22!
Tweety, that is pretty rude of the other staff. I used to think I could tell I garnered a little respect from being not so young. Now I think I've become...
Sorry about Toby, dianah.
Enjoying the pictures, J22.
I might go to a protest tomorrow. It's 25 miles away (there's an option in OKC as well, but that is a little farther and a lot more...
Sounds a bit like poutine, though without the cheese curds. I did try that, either in Montreal or in Minneapolis, figured it was obligatory. But then I live in the land of chicken-fried steak with...
LOL. I left my phone at home this morning. Hubs brought it to me before I even noticed I didn't have it. THEN I left it at work when I came home so made a trip after dinner to get it.
So far...
Love the photos, J22. The hospital sounds like an interesting piece of history.
We did get some small hail the other night. There are storms in the forecast today. One meteorologist said...
Nothing like a good ol' swashbuckler movie, Stars!
J22, thanks for the photos. Hope you're having a lovely time.
Joe, enjoy your after-work gathering.
Hi, Tweety!
The boys tried...
Goodness, I'm glad you didn't caught in the police chase in the parking!
Joe, my next episode will be the Christmas special 2023. I just watched the episode with Trixie's and Matthew's wedding....
Safe and happy travels, J22!
Tweety, my "boys" enjoyed the movie. Maybe I'm just old.
We are all sitting in the dark while Hubs watches basketball and the boys play video games. I'm going...
I know I irritated Gma at times. And it was mutual. But we didn't really dislike one another. Hubs' family was quite different from mine. Holiday dinner: the good china (my family) and paper plates...
Stars, Chatty CG does seem rather unreliable. I guess you have to weigh whether the freedom you do get for an afternoon is worth the aggravation of not knowing week-to-week whether she will show. At...
Ah, the miraculously re-alived rabbit.
No news here. 80 degrees, windy, tomorrow's high will be only 52 😞
Binx takes enalapril and lasix because he has a heart murmur (I never did hear...
Hubs' family always boasted of their Irish heritage so it was funny when we did AncestryDNA and it said I had about twice the Irish heritage he did. Those numbers get revised all the time so now I...
Hello and Happy St. Patrick's Day.
Very sorry about the loss of Suzy the kitty, dianah.
I didn't do anything "useful" over the weekend and I'm feeling rather down on myself. Almost wonder...
Happy day-after-your-birthday, dianah!
Joe, I'm glad you had your time off.
J22, when do you leave for Belgium?
The winds are much calmer now. There were some bad fires in the state...
Congrats, Joe -- I hope you got to enjoy your time off.
Tweety, that's a bummer about the job pay. Especially if you were on the fence at all about taking the job.
Stars -- hugs. Next week...
Stars, I can only imagine. I'm only around Gma a few hours a day that she is awake. Still the little things get to me... the sounds she makes while eating, licking her fingers, etc. I feel so little...
I think we've discussed before that I can't imagine trying to date at this age. My mother used to say that about people who were divorced or widowed after a certain age... that if you found someone...
Great news, Stars! I hope it all comes to fruition. It should be good for all involved.
Our Ash Wednesday service was poorly attended but a good service. I came home and put together a Chef...
I saw the eagles and eaglets on a Facebook post!
The wind is very strong right now. I went to the grocery after work (yes, I should have done it 2 days ago -- I'm a procrastinator). Anyway, as I...
