Hi Gail
Hope you are good tonight.
I am so sorry all those nice kitchen stores around here are gone.
Amanda drives too, and has her own car. She works a lot, and does double shifts, so she does not come by as much. Steph does not drive, and I so wish she would. I have re-visited that so many times, and finally gave up.
How is everyone at your place? How has Ron been doing?? I hope he is feeling better, and that your foot is better too. Winter makes everything hurt more.
read the piece about the fertility drugs. A friend of mine took them too, and she ended up with twins. She had to do shots in her stomach, which were very uncomfortable. Not easy to help Mother Nature along. But, it is great that we have the technology to do so.
Hope your night is going well!
AdeleHi Colleen
That is funny about Ron not making you the potato soup. It is great that he is trying, and liking the new things you are making. I missed quite a few Chew’s this week. I have one recorded, and forgot to set the recorder when we went out today. we had to get to the accountant , and do our taxes, before Gary has surgery next week. Trying to get everything done before then.
I hope you are better soon, so you can go see Aliza again. I bet you miss her.
Steph is supposed to come this Sunday, so we can do Jhonny’s birthday. I hope it works out. Gary wants to see his brother, too before he is laid up again. I hope the weather is good for that tomorrow, as it is going to snow some tonight.
I have never had any recipes from Pillsbury- do you get them on-line?
We are so much alike!! I love oatmeal for supper in the winter, and of course, Gary does not eat that either.
Hope you have a good night!
AdeleHi colleen
So sorry you are under the weather. Do you have a fever too- if so, it must be the dreaded flu. Sending good vibes your way………
It is sunny here- have not seen that in a while. Hope you do not get too much snow.
How nice that Ron is taking good care of you….so is he making you potato soup???
Hope you are up, and recovering.
AdeleHi Gail
I am so glad Rocky is good. Scared me, thinking something was wrong.
I love those small kitchen stores. We do not have anymore around here- all out of business. Only Bed Bath and Beyond. Even Linens n Things is gone from around this way.
it is sunny today, and almost all the snow is disappeared. Yahoo- we will have a good time out on Friday. Will definitely do our dinner out together too. But, I have to be back for Blue Bloods….LOL
Rissy came by today to visit for a few. She is such a cutie. She is getting bagels for Gary again tomorrow. She likes to do nice things for people. It is so nice that she drives, and can stop by when she has a minute. I really love the I unannounced little visits.
Hope your day is good!
AdeleHi Colleen and Gail
Gary put some scratch tickets in my card, and of course, true to form, I won 2.00. It is a long standing joke around here- I never win. I ordered the Lindt balls/truffles for everyone, so we have plenty of candy around here….LOL Everyone loved the strawberry one we had for Marissa’s graduation party, and they are only made in the spring. So, when I saw they were out, I ordered them, and gave everyone some.
We had a lot of mess last night. First about 2 inches of snow and then ice on top of that. It is supposed to rain, much later in the day, a lot of rain, actually. It will be 55, so I am hoping it will melt.
OMG….on the Kelly and Michael show, they just talked about Fredrick’s of Hollywood….LOL How funny is that!
We are all blessed- Valentine’s is every day, when your husband is a good man, who love you, no matter what sags, how grey you get, or how your chubby bits increase in size. Not that they have remained the same, either. Aging is one of the funniest things ever. We have to keep our senses of humor.
Gail…..what happened to poor Rocky? Is he sick?
Hope everyone’s weather is getting better!
AdeleHi Gail
Yes, the stove is electric. You can get a larger loaf pan through the King Arthur Co. I have to cut the recipe in half, as this one is huge, and then the cake never is fully cooked in the middle. I use the Temptations pretty pumpkin Bundt pan, and it comes out perfect.
We are having the same weather. This evening, it is going to snow, then sleet, and in the middle of the night, turn to rain. We will have almost 2 inches of rain when it is done. If it were all snow, I would be in the house until April….LOL
Bobby’s braised ribs were fabulous. Got no complaints on the cake, either. So we are good here. But, when Bobby did the shopping, he forgot to get the meat I wanted for this week for meals. he said when he decide to do the ribs, he left the meat section, to get the other ingredients he needed, and totally forgot. So, tonight we are having frozen chicken fingers, and frozen fries. Tomorrow, I am taking out the chicken soup I froze. I have one night of meat- chicken breasts, and then we are done. I do have another lentil soup I froze, so that will be Thursday, unless THE BOY gets his butt back to the supermarket. So, I guess I will make some fresh bread with the soups this week. I hate to be out of the “emergency frozen soups”. So, I will have to make some soup next week. This will be an amusing dinner week, for sure.
Gary gave me a card for Valentines Day, and I had none for him. So, I told him to wait a minute, got a piece of paper, folded it, drew 2 hearts together on the front, and a personal message inside. Of course, I told him my card was better, because it came from my heart. I got “the look”. Hey….adapt, improvise, and amend.
I feel the same way. Every day is Valentines Day when you love your husband. I refused to go out, because it was too cold, and the food always sucks on Valentine’s Day, Mothers Day, and New Years Eve. So, why bother? Go the next weekend, and enjoy your meal with less commotion. He has his appointment with the surgeon on Friday, so we will go out after that. I hope there will not be any storm that day.
Did you see Quacker last night? I got the new dragonfly short sleeve shirt. Tillie got the 2 piece outfit, and missed the cute yellow bee shirt. Didn’t April look adorable????
Hope you are having a good day….I am off to clean the bathrooms, after The Chew, of course.
AdeleHi Sue
I remember the days of travelling in a snow storm. It would take me 3 to 4 hours to get home, and my trip home was 30 minutes. As I got older, I used vacation time for storms. Just not worth the risk.
I am glad you were nowhere near it. I hope none of your cousins were, either. The roads become so dangerous and people do not need to lose their lives to earn a living.
Here on Friday, a poor lady was driving under the tunnel in Boston. hit a sewer cover, and died. All she was doing was going to work, and she is gone. What a shame. the road crews have been out testing all the manhole covers.
I am like you- I hate when bad things happen to people. I say a little prayer for the victims, every time I hear about them. So terribly sad. I wish we had a tiny bit of good news on TV, every once in a while. I love those stories when they make the news- gives us all hope.
Have to go make my cake for tonight, as the butter if finally soft enough.
Have a good evening- I love the TV shows on Sunday night- the Good Wife, Madame Secretary.
Adelehey Gail!
Jenny is a hero. Any mother of 3 is one. That third one just adds so much more work, and I do no know quite why. At east, that is what a lot of the mothers of three say.
We all have oil heat around here. Some have gas, but ,we do not have any gas lines on this street. That is one of the reasons we got this house, as Tillie is deathly afraid of gas. we have a fireplace downstairs, but, we have never used it. Again, because of Tillie- she is also afraid of fire. But, it is there, should b we need it.
We are getting your snow Monday night, and then turns to rain on Tuesday, and will be around 50. I think it is so funny that you get most of the weather we have, before us, accept for the systems coming up form the south. Sharing, is caring…..LOL
Hope you have a good Valentines Day. Bobby is making braised short ribs, and I am doing a pound cake. It will smell great in here shortly.
Have a good one! almost time for in the Kitchen with Dave.
AdeleHello again, Sue
I did not realize the pile-up was near you. I am also glad you stayed home, and hope none of your friends, or relatives were involved. when I was still working, I used a lot of vacation days when the weather was not good for me to be out in. It is just not worth the risk at our ages. things do not heal as well.
Hope you are safe, and sound.
