Hi all,

Checking in, sorry I've been MIA again! Lots going on here, but thankfully we're still covid free.

Had my new rheumatologist appointment and I am very happy with him! Soooooo much better than my last one. Had some not-so-great news and have to start on a new med (injectable, yikes!) but it's for the best as the damage is increasing. Autoimmune disease is really a pain, literally and figuratively. Fingers crossed I can inject myself with no problems. I have to wait for insurance to approve first.

Hey DLPN..... I bought a prime rib from Sams! I'm thinking of having it for Thanksgiving, instead of turkey, which none of us are really fond of. We're doing a very scaled down dinner with just two of my children and their significant others (so far, have to hear from the other one) and hubby and I. My kids said they're fine with no turkey as long as they have mashed potatoes and my pumpkin cheesecake. So garlic mashed potatoes it is! With lots of butter. And probably a horseradish cream sauce for the prime rib.

Hope everyone is well!

 

[mckennarose]

Quick note on Christmas trees...
I saw some posts on trees and I have my Disney tree up and decorated in my middle room and my black tree is still up in my dining room from Halloween decoration. I haven't put the metallic ornaments on it yet, but soon. So yes, officially time to start putting the trees up! Two more "bigger" trees to go!

Well maybe I’ll just come to Pennsylvania for Thanksgiving this year, because it sounds very good!!!!!

I did buy a Turkey from Popeyes, rather pricey they are now but if it’s tasty and simple I’ll gladly take a few extra leaves off the tree......



Glad to see you stopping by!!!

 

[Lynne G]

Hehe, McK, while most of us like stuffing, little one expects mashed taters, as she won’t eat stuffing. A small number for us too, as better for all. Bought a boneless turkey breast, so should be more than enough for the 4 of us. Little one is not fond of turkey either. In fact, she’d probably stop in for your steak dinner. That is an entree she definitely eats. And yum. I’d come for the dessert. I like most kinds of cheesecake. Glad to see ya post. And like the forecast this evening. Coldest weather to come, then we have had in some time. Yeah, wind chills in the 20’s. Brrr. Hope you are warm, and feeling better.

 

[Charade67]

Good evening everyone. Not too much going on here. Today wasn't as bad of a Monday as they usually are.

An amusing story to tell - Several years ago we started getting collection calls for someone who shared a name with my MIL (who has never lived with us). Sometimes it was just her first and last name. but other times her last name was used with another name. (Hypothetical example - We would get calls for Mary Smith, MIL's name, and also Mary Smith Jones.) The calls eventually stopped after my MIL passed on. Recently we have started getting mail addressed to that woman, but just Mary Jones now. What makes this a funny story is that all of the mailings we have received for her are credit card offers.

My DS and DIL have been together since being teenagers. They met while both working as students at a country pub. They are devoted to each other snd have been together for 17 years. They are expecting their first baby next May

Congratulations to them.

Two weeks, and many will be saying enjoy your Thanksgiving holiday. And so, since I am totally expecting to have a four day weekend for that holiday,

I am looking at an 11or 12 day weekend. I'm not sure if I will work the Day before Thanksgiving or not.

The lovely Edgar moved here from Louisiana, but originally he came from Charleston I believe,

Charleston, South Carolina? That's where dh is from.

Had some not-so-great news and have to start on a new med (injectable, yikes!) but it's for the best as the damage is increasing. Autoimmune disease is really a pain, literally and figuratively. Fingers crossed I can inject myself with no problems. I have to wait for insurance to approve first.

That sounds very unpleasant, but if it helps.....
I hope you don't have to fight with the insurance company.

 

[snowpack]

Good evening. Dh just got back from Kroger and said there was no toilet paper to be found

Cannot believe we are going through this again. Placed 2 order this week with Walmart and they said they are out of stock but I am able to go right back in and order. Hoping third time is a charm for Wednesdays order.

My daughter just turned 20, so I am in no hurry for grand children. I just learned that another one of her high school classmates had a baby a few months ago.

I think it was my sons first year in college when 3 out of 5 kids in his year that played baseball had babies. He was 17 then. He is nowhere near ready, so I just keep enjoying other's. Its payback for making my mom wait until I was 28.

They are expecting their first baby next May

And so, since I am totally expecting to have a four day weekend for that holiday, I think I need to make a three day weekend this week. Short week? Un huh. Hoping to do that. Yay!

Oh, I like your way of thinking!

You`d like it in our home...lots of turkey and always chips and dips!!!

Save me a room

Sitting with feet up tonight and going through a few things with a large glass of chardonnay......

Sounds wonderful.

Got to get me one of these!!!!

Ok, ya know I had to look it up and see if it was a real thing; and from the search engine I apparently wasnt the first.

Had shepherds pie for dinner and now watching the Vikings and the Bears. First 10 minutes and they both have turned the ball over. Hoping for a tie.

Glad you`re happy with the new guy! Makes all the difference if you have confidence in them. And good luck with the injections, and the insurance, that can`t be fun.

Yes South Carolina. Long time since he lived there I think. We still don`t know him very well, but he is lovely.

Always room for friends here........

No shortages here at all. I did notice our cash and carry, like Costco, has put limits on their toilet rolls. But the packs are like 48 rolls, so buying two is more than enough for us. We have loads in our utilty room so we`re covered there if it does start to get rationed. Wouldn`t surprise me.

Oh lordy....the friend who sent it to me, prefaced it with "this isn`t real".....lol......I replied "REALLY!!!" I do wonder how many thought it might be real!!! It should be......lol......






Although today we have to be around 60F but cloudy and grey for most of it.......only thing we have planned this morning is some of the grocery drops to some folks who are housebound. Will only take a couple of hours.

Also need to get some boxes made up for other charities we support and make a special effort this time of year. Some are struggling badly with all the restrictions in place for donations.

And have two packages to pick up, waiting on two to be delivered and then I`m almost done for Christmas.

Few folks round about have got decorations up already, we`ll still wait till the end of the month to start.....get the outdoor ones up first. It will be lovely once they are up though. Haven`t seen any local to us though.

Almost breakfast time........

​

 

[Lynne G]

Good Morning, Schumi. Yep, heard Christmas music in a store yesterday. Decorating is in full swing for many. And you know it is getting closer to the holidays, as on a Monday late afternoon, the mall was busier than I thought it usually is. Hehe, little one said that’s a large tree in our 3 story local mall. Yeah, tree top was as high as the middle of the third floor. So sparkly was the top. Hope you have your parcels already. We have warnings that shipping may be slow. But did get a notice, the one item I knew would be shipping late, is now going to arrive earlier. Yay!

Ah so dark out. And cool. 36 out. Yeah, a few degrees above freezing. More like cooler.

But whatever the weather, it’s a Tuesday. A Taco Tuesday. The one day of the week, Mac does her Taco Bell run. And yay homies, are you ready for Taco Tuesday?



Let’s go indeed. But doubt we will be at a Taco Bell today. Kids have not been liking the last two box offerings from Taco Bell, including the current one they are selling. However, it is cheap bagel day, and free coffee day. Those, we will be enjoying, I am sure. Before that though, tea for me. And shortly will see what for breakfast. Cleaning out the freezer this weekend, saw there was waffles left. I doubt any were eaten yesterday, so breakfast coming soon.

Terrific Taco Tuesday. Be safe, happy, and healthy.

 

[Realfoodfans]

Late hello today. After school run Em and I drove to get the click and collect groceries (we drive to the next town as the store is much quieter) allowing time to go in the store first to use vouchers we have collected as it was double up day so I had planned some items to get. I love a bargain!

Kev stayed at home as lots of deliveries due today. Two had arrived by our return and three more to come.

Just waiting to complete another order and hoping other than gifts I actually want to choose in little local shops when they re-open that I will be finished for Christmas.

Holding out on butchers order to see if we will be at home or away. Either way I cook a glazed ham as it’s popular with us all and I can give slices to DS & DIL. Turkey will be depending on if just for Boxing Day or the main meal itself. I prefer the stuffing to the turkey.

I can’t eat dried fruit etc so we are not traditional on the cake or pudding anymore. Kev was never overly keen so happy for alternatives.

A mild and dry day here. Fish pie for tonight and I’ve promised J I will make a Lotus Biscoff cheesecake for their return tomorrow after he spotted the ingredients in the pantry!

Hope all well and preparing for your Thanksgiving. I’ve enjoyed the US Holiday Baking Championship (may have been last years) and bizarrely in my groceries today a bottle of organic maple syrup - not ordered and not charged for. Already have some in the cupboard but will definitely be eaten happily with pancakes and bacon!

 

[macraven]

Taco Bell is breaking my heart.

Weeks ago they did more removals of items we would order

This week they removed another item that I always would get.

 

[Lynne G]

Yeah, some sad faces here too, Mac. And with a shortage of lettuce in some restaurants, slim pickings at Taco Bell nowadays. Indeed, kids were hungry when out and about last week, so got Taco Bell boxes. Now while I can see why little one said it was icky, but when older one agreed it was icky, Taco Bell is definitely off our takeout list.

Ooh, got some hazelnut coffee, and while had to add some of my own cream and a bit of sugar, it was delicious. Free coffee, yes. Bagels also bought, so lunch for me. Yay, I like a chewy water bagel.

Good Afternoon Julie. Sounds like lots of new stuff in the home. Yay, for parcels already arriving while out. Yay, love a cheesecake, even though not quite heard of your flavored one.

Yep, while that coffee was good, tea for me. Not cool inside, but yeah, I like my tea.

 

[keishashadow]

Lots on the to-do list here last few days, nice to be ahead of the game on decorations & putting small dent into xmas shopping. Even found some toilet paper

Three more employees at Mom’s nursing home sent home in less than a week. Surprisingly, no residents. They are getting tested once a week now standardly using non rapid one, twice if a reported infection anywhere in the facility.

I pity the person who is tasked with trying to get those tests from what i gather is a rather unknowing/uncooperative population there. God bless them all.

My son's was yesterday and hubby's and my cousin's today. I am done with immediate family birthday's now until July.

Celebrate, big time! Same BD flurry we have here, nice time of year indeed.

Oldest son and hubby went to go buy a pinto wagon yesterday for their birthday. I know right, a pinto wagon?! I got so blessed that it was too far gone even for my miracle worker husband.

Were you able to muster a suitably sad & stricken face when it was pronounced DOA?

I taught my mom to drive on an old yellow Chevy pinto . Yes, that did go against all the laws of human nature lol. Thought i was going to die in it more than a few times

Then out of the blue we found out from neighbor that her children who live in Indianapolis came down put her in the Nursing home and sold her land for a pittance to a developer who wants to put a subdivision there.

Ugh. Not uncommon for rather unscrupulous realtors to work in or pay finder’s fees to nursing homes for inside info on possible hot properties

We went to hearing at the Courthouse as the developer wants to rezone the land from A1 agricultural to R1 to build houses on it.

Did the zoning change pass? If not, perhaps the developer will let his option on property roll off

My ex-brother-in-law from Georgia has a very Southern polite and refined accent. You can tell he is native of Georgia.

Oh, some Georgia accents are not quite as melodious. I’m guessing he is southern, coastal.

LOL........I believe those 24 pounders can put the back out. I was able to get mine in the freezer. Not sure if I can get it out by myself. Perish the thought of dropping one on a foot.

Hmmm maybe a new exercise routine for me...not sure how many times I could hoist that bad boy each day though lol

We live on a ridge and at the bottom is farm land.
Well, it’s all cow pastures across the street from us but crop land on one side of this land.

Better to be above the development than next to it. Sometimes a smaller development can be a good thing with road & infrastructure improvements. Well, unless they put in a new waterline and you have to pay to tap into it.

Was in store today, and did not think I picked up anything. Must have turned just right, as lower back pained so much, made me sick to stomach. When got to car, stretched some, and tuned the seat heater on. Good thing I had pills in my purse, and water bottle in car. Feeling better, took warm bath when I got home. Did some more stretching, and now resting with warm on my lower back. Made the kids bring in the bags. One which had the turkey in it.

Better now? Ala Clue...the turkey did it in the grocery store with bottle of c

Dh just got back from Kroger and said there was no toilet paper to be found. I can't believe we are doing this again. DId we not learn anything from last time?

Of course we did, as soon as the numbers rise...

Run, run, as fast as you can to the grocery store

I think the Bass company still makes penny loafers.

Yes, and they made the nicest shoes, don’t see them sold in B&M stores as much anyway.

They are devoted to each other snd have been together for 17 years. They are expecting their first baby next May and we are all so thrilled and beginning to get excited now she’s got past the 12 week mark and scan shows all going well. My mum and dad would be so happy as they are such a lovely couple. We have already been booked in for grandparent duties!

Aw, congrats to all!

The lovely Edgar moved here from Louisiana, but originally he came from Charleston I believe, he`s in his late 60`s and a pure gentleman in every sense of the word. He`s a wonderful addition to our local area.

Oh, it’s such a lovely place, you’d love it there. curious how he wound up in England.

Got to get me one of these!!!!

Something very wrong with me but, my 1st thought was “hope it’s not red wine”...jik it leaks

Fingers crossed I can inject m

Not sure if i could, maybe your DH would help out? Nice to hear the new specialist was a fit for you...good luck

while most of us like stuffing, little one expects mashed taters,

Only a few here like it but I have to make two types...one with sausage & one without

Charleston, South Carolina? That's where dh is from.

And he left? My DH, literally, has to drag me back to Myrtle Beach when we finish our daytrip

Taco Bell is breaking my heart.

Weeks ago they did more removals of items we would order

This week they removed another item that I always would get.

Hadn’t heard that. That is a bummer though. Do you think it’s a temporary, supply thing?

Maybe a search for independent/family Mexican place might be in order. They are admittedly few & far between here.

 

[Realfoodfans]

@Lynne G Lotus Biscoff are a spiced crispy biscuit - European recipe - often given with coffee. Also sold as a spread. Think they are available in the US but perhaps not everywhere. Gives a nice caramel flavour to recipes. In the fridge now hoping Kev will resist until tomorrow! Also just saw you hurt your back is it better now?

 

[Monykalyn]

Checking in-procrastinating - so much to do before Friday!
Happy late Birthday to B!!! The big 20!
After very warm weather this weekend the cold front slammed through late Saturday-tornado and severe weather warnings/watches. Straight line winds were howling. Glad Coop is on side of house that shelters from those winds. Dog was scared-had to make a bed on floor of my room for him. Hub is hunting at his dad's farm in NE MO and won't be back until very late tonite. He got a smaller buck-just got off phone arguing where we will put the meat-Both freezers full He said he is going to make jerky from older meat so we have room for "fresh". We just are not going through our freezer like we did before with 2 kids gone. Although everyone will be home from Dec 13-jan 1. Will be nice to have all under same roof for a while. Making older one get tested for Covid first though, and I will quarantine for a week then start my 2 x week swabs back up before I get back into my homes-and even then it is still a very strict short time limit and only to kitchen inspections, with my N95 mask the whole time. Although my homes have had their outbreak and shouldn't be that vulnerable to more at this point. Small teeny silver lining maybe.

if I take a header, At least I died with my beloved decorations in hand

Well, it’s gone. I managed to gash each of my legs

I’am always injuring something when I’am out in the yard.

Going to put both of you in bubble wrap! Although I can't talk too much-caught my heel under screen door going out from lower level and gashed it. Didn't think it was that bad until son asked if I was going to do something about the blood dripping off my heel...

But, back to normal all round

Good news, glad you are doing better.

Monyk - did u see hash house a go go is having Thanksgiving option? Haven’t tried the one in MCO but do like vegas site

Yeah-but food coma alert!! We have been to the one in Orlando. Still not sure what we are doing on T-day...

@macraven You mean you guys have Christmas decoration attractions where people drive around specifically for them, or in your neighborhood?

Our city paper will have a map of those houses (you need to submit your address-strictly voluntary) and neighborhoods. Many have collection boxes for local food pantries or toys for tots or some such thing as well. It's a nice way to enjoy the lights and give back.

Also, I didn't realize we had a storm here until yesterday.

The last storm here blew leaves off trees-trees nekked now until spring. The crazy weather confused my day lillies last week-they bloomed again!

Keto Bacon Cheeseburger Casserole so easy one dish meal.

that sounds good!!

My Niece's picture is one that will be featured!!!!

OMG how COOL!! Congrats to her!!

Some day, we will be a 4 car family.

Ugh-too many cars! We have 3 car garage and the full driveway-but with four cars it still takes shuffling. Add in the cars from DH's cousin and mom when they go to Puerto Vallarta in January...when oldest would come home from college in January it looked like we were having huge parties every weekend. This year-neither DD's car will be home and only one PV car storage. Although DH has taken over the third stall for his business now-socks, chocolate (had 300 cases-each case 60 chocolate bars) -now christmas decoration bins, and his prizes for the fundraisers. Nearly all the chocolate is already gone (delivered last week)-schools/groups are hurting HARD for funds to support their programs. People still have that buck for World's Finest Chocolate bar I guess.

don`t laugh.....we may reach 66F.......that`s warm for us anytime never mind late November.

We will hit 70's again by end of week, but start in morning in 30's...

L a lot better today so dropped in school.

Oh glad she is doing better-poor kiddo!

Chevy Sonic Premier Turbo

Cute!

Possibly going hiking in Northern Arkansas to see the Fall colors after that.

Hope you got to see the colors! Usually spectacular!

Hope Mr Snowpack has a lovely birthday tomorrow.....and yes, if you don`t get caught up with work.....doesn`t matter......your trip is coming up so fast now!! And did you say it was your son`s birthday today

Oh happy late birthday to them too!!

cabinets lighting in Em’s kitchen

We have this-love it. I also have lights on top of cabinets too

Got call from Amex today wanting to verify a $7800 charge at a bike shop.....

Uhhhh no.....

Now I get to have a new card sent out, they asked when the last time I used it and I verified and they said we will need to send you a new one.

Ugh glad they caught it. I have one card that has had to be replace 3 times.

Know some who still swear on butter for burns, pretty sure that’s been debunked.

yeah that would be DH's step mom-she knows everything though so can't tell her otherwise.

Not to get political here, it just strikes me odd that the decision is currently being left up to the decision of each school district’s elected board members vs the individual health department’s/county recommendations.

Here too.

We were going to try and get back for Mardi Gras, but dont think it is in the cards.

Would love a Mardi Gras trip but ditto

Seriously he is only 24, but a steady girlfriend would be nice.

Where does he live? My daughter is 23...

ad my new rheumatologist appointment and I am very happy with him!

Hope the treatments bring you some relief.

You leave the door open as weather is warm while decorating...

 

[Lynne G]

Yep, Keisha. Much better. See, when much younger, threw my back out. Lost that stuff between my bones in my lower back, so every once in a great while, thankfully not very often, I get that oh my goodness, stop the searing pain in my lower back. Doubt it was the turkey, as think it’s about 8 or 9 pounds. And, thankful that little one was with me, and did all the carrying, and the pain goes away after taking some pain pills and stretching and heating. Never used to, but have for awhile, carry pain pills and allergy pills.

Yay, a bagel, toasted, with cream cheese. Full from that. Nice lunch. May look for sweet soon enough, though.

Ah, thanks for describing it, Julie. I do like caramel taste, so yum, to that cheesecake.

Ack those winds, and scary tornado warnings, MonyK. They are checking if tornado near me, but now think it was wind shear that took down trees, threw off roofs, moved cars, and damaged property. Was relieved to see that damage was just West of me. We had trees down nearer to me, but other than a ton more leaves, that was the extent of damage we had from that storm the other day. Very sunny day, even if cool out.

Time for lunchtime walk. Be good homies.

 

[mckennarose]

Well maybe I’ll just come to Pennsylvania for Thanksgiving this year, because it sounds very good!!!!!

LOL, come on up! Definitely not traditional this year.... but NOTHING about this year has been the norm!

Glad to see you stopping by!!!

Thanks!

Bought a boneless turkey breast, so should be more than enough for the 4 of us.

That sounds good, and might be my plan B if I need to make more food. A breast is much easier to cook than a whole bird! Still waiting on third child to see if they're coming to dinner.

In fact, she’d probably stop in for your steak dinner.

She's welcome to drive up!

Glad to see ya post.

Thank you!

Hope you are warm, and feeling better.

Snow! It's snowing here right now, but nothing is sticking. Brr....

That sounds very unpleasant, but if it helps.....
I hope you don't have to fight with the insurance company.

I hope I don't have a fight also.
I'm at the point where I need something else. I've been on DMARDs before, which suppress the entire immune system. Methotrexate was awful for me. It was originally a chemotherapy drug but commonly used for some rheumatic diseases. This time it's a biologic drug they're putting me on which works a little differently, so fingers crossed!

Cannot believe we are going through this again.

The entire TP aisle in Sam's was wiped out except for a few boxes. I'm talking floor to ceiling! Some grocery stores here are very low, or out completely. I don't get it....
They've also started putting "limit" signs up by a lot of products.

Glad you`re happy with the new guy! Makes all the difference if you have confidence in them. And good luck with the injections, and the insurance, that can`t be fun.

Thanks! I'm not really looking forward to it, but I'm not particularly squeamish with needles or blood. I think a nurse will call and walk me through the first one, but I have several family members in the health care field that would help me if I need it.

Fish pie for tonight

What is fish pie? Like a pot pie?

in my groceries today a bottle of organic maple syrup - not ordered and not charged for. Already have some in the cupboard but will definitely be eaten happily with pancakes and bacon!

Oooh, yum! I love real maple syrup!

Not sure if i could, maybe your DH would help out? Nice to hear the new specialist was a fit for you...good luck

Thanks!
I haven't asked hubby, but I think he might be not so keen on inflicting pain on me. I would be afraid he wouldn't stick it far enough in.

Hope the treatments bring you some relief.

Thanks! Me too!

DD has twisted my arm to go to Michael's when her online class is over today. Who am I kidding.... I don't need anyone to twist my arm to go there! LOL! We have some projects we're doing for Christmas and need some supplies.

Stay warm and safe!

 

[Realfoodfans]

@mckennarose fish pie is a selection of fish and prawns in a savoury bechamel sauce topped with mashed potatoes - I put a sprinkling of cheese and breadcrumbs on the very top for some crispness.

 

[macraven]

It never fails...

I step away from the boards for 7 hours and the sans gets chatty.
Now I play ketchup.

Lynne that's serous stuff with your back!
Hope the pain has completely subsided now.

Monyk, hope you are not the one that has to gut the deer when your husband brings it home tonight.

Julie thanks for the info of what a fish pie is.
I’ll stick with pot pies.

Mrose, stay safe!
Your icky meds will help you feel better sooner or later.
Hang in there.

Keisha, all of GA has that accent.
I do have to say “huh” a few times and need a translator.

Thinking of all our homies but only replying back to those I can see their posts in my phone right now.
I do what I can without a computer.

My dinner tonight will be baked pork chops with sides of potato salad, zucchini, sliced tomatoes.
Still deciding if I want to do a small bowl of baked Mac/cheese and hold the potatoe salad for lunch tomorrow.

Come on over...
Will set a plate for youse.
