    Dinner 2020

    Venison goulash and a salad last night
  2. Quoting myself. I decided to go to the big city store this morning. Got there around 8:30. Not many people. Most in masks except for some young people probably in their 20's. Not expecting to find a thing, I went down the cleaning isles.... O M G they had 3 packs of Clorox Wipes. $9.99 like they always were. I almost cried right there in the isle. They didn't have very many--I noticed most people had a 3 pack in their carts. Bet they are sold out by now. They had lots of single containers too. So I came home with a total of 4 containers. I'm giddy with excitement. Who knew I could be so excited by wipes lol. Also scored some Clorox toilet bowl cleaner. Over all the store was stocked way more normally like it used to be. I noticed they opened the olive and salad bars. Bad move IMO. I certainly won't be partaking. I'm off to stare at my wipes. Might sleep with them tonight.
  3. I'm also doing a little mini stock-up. I'm running low on things like brown sugar, powdered sugar and baking powder. Also over the counter meds such as Immodium ad (yeah....stress makes me...well, you know). And pet food. My thinking is that it might be hard to find since so many shut downs of meat processing plants? Trying to decide whether to go into a store or whether to order. I'm sure it's cheaper to go into a store. I'm going to be making homemade Clorox wipes soon. I really thought by the time I ran out that they would be back in stock, but nope. And believe me, I've rationed what I had. Many places I've had to go do not have wipes at the door for their carts so I have to bring my own. I have a periodontist appt very soon. Terrified. Trying to decide whether to cancel, or go and get it done...I lean towards going because I think things are going to get worse before they get better. So many around here that I've seen on the news seem to have forgotten about the virus. Ronnie says he thinks it's safer to go there than get a haircut....sigh. Lets not talk about how awful my hair looks. Not so much the style, but oh do I need color badly. I need to clean my house so bad....you'd think I'd be motivated but all I want to do is be outside for some reason. Probably because my house is so bad lol.

    Dinner 2020

    I got a plug-in keyboard for my MacBook...temporary work around for the keys that aren't working. I've done everything I could find online and it still hasn't helped. I know it's not a software problem because once in a while the keys randomly work. Frustrating. But at least this little keyboard works. Holy crap I looked online and new computers are SUPER expensive. Anyway. On to the food. Sous vide fried chicken with tater salad using red potatoes from the garden and the first squash. Then last night was pork enchiladas.

    Breakfast for dinner last night. Tomato salad, sausage gravy, biscuits Last week the grocery store had huge bags of bananas for 1.49 total. So, we've been eating a lot of bananas. They are starting to go bad so banana cake for dessert.

    I agree. I've never once felt the need to give asparagus away lol.

    I'm craving fish roe @liuzhou. It's been a long time since I've had any. Venison burgers again Yesterday Ronnie went fishing. Caught a few white bass. We have both been wanting ceviche so I made a small batch A friend of Ronnie's still has asparagus coming out of his ears so he dropped some off in our mailbox (social distancing ya know) I fried the rest of the fish

    Dinner 2020

    It was really good! I didn't expect to like it as much as I did. It had cilantro, radishes, green onions, pickled jalapeños (didn't have anything else close) fresh lime juice and salt.
  9. Yeah I have a lot of it! It wouldn't have lasted any longer in the garden.
  10. I might be looking for something that doesn't exist. I picked a whole lot of these: I dont remember what type of lettuce this is...it is a little stiffer than leaf lettuce ...... I googled but didn't get much out of it.Hoping you creative people have some ideas. I want to stuff these with something...maybe even grill them or wilt them....any ideas (my question mark doesn't work sigh. Having keyboard problems)

    Dinner 2020

    Having major problems with my MacBook Pro keyboard. I'm guessing that either a key is stuck (can't find it) or sigh I dunno. Anyway...it is maddening. Salmon with asparagus and first squash from the garden. Made a radish salsa to go with venison taco salads Venison steaks on The grill Spaghetti and venison meatballs
  12. Is it normal to not be in the mood for years lol.
  13. Oh man, I'm jealous. You should see my basement and my craft room and my closets and kitchen....sigh. It's overwhelming. You'd think now of all times would be a good time to tackle it all, but I can't even bring myself to look at the rooms. All I want to do is be outside in the garden. I've never read this whole thread...I'll do so and maybe that will get me motivated!

    Dinner 2020

    Great meals, everyone. I'm so glad , that even during this time, there are diverse ingredients available for everyone....or even if something we want isn't available, we seem to be adapting and using what we do have. Venison cheeseburgers. I reduced my fry count. I should have put more on the plate for the sake of the picture 🤣 Down to the end of the asparagus from the garden. Sigh. I will miss it more than usual this year. Hot wings, tomato salad to go with Venison meatloaf last night. Ronnie had a meatloaf sandwich for lunch....good stuff.
  15. I just sat and thumbed through mine but haven't tried any recipes yet.
  16. I forgot to add..and don't faint.... I was out of heavy cream. I use it quite often. O M G the price. $9.55 for a quart.

    What movie did you pick
  18. Went to the store that has the pharmacy that we use. Very disappointing. Only myself and one other customer wearing masks. No wipes to wipe carts down. I brought my own in my purse. Meat section was ok. No signs limiting purchases. Saw lots of pork and chicken. Very little beef. TP isle was super bare. Only a few packs of off brand...like 5-10 left. Cleaning isle still bare. No yeast STILL. I don't need any, it's just something I spot check every time I'm there.

    Breakfast 2020!

    Did you use a different kind of bread than you normally use?
  20. That's great! I need to use mine more. It's sitting behind a door to the kitchen so it's not like it's hard to access... I dehydrated a ton of zucchini a couple of summers ago. Took forever to rehydrate but they were great.
  21. Wow, it all looks really great Kay! So glad some asparagus was left! How many years before you can pick? I forget...they sell 1,2 and 3 year crowns?

    Costco

    I am not a member and have never been there but maybe due to meat shortages? Edited to say--we are having shortages here in Kansas.....so it would make sense that you are too....
  23. I promise, I'll find it again around here sooner than later 🤣
