This would be the best. thing. ever. I would NEVER get out of bed. I'd need two, though.....one for white wine.....maybe three....one for riesling...... NO four...another for ice wine during summer.

Happy Birthday @Anna N♥️

Our windows must open at the same time today--3:00. I'm supposed to go to a family thing at 2 sigh. You can bet that I will be shopping at the stroke of 3 somewhere in a corner lol.

I’ve already roasted peeled and am going to vac pack them in a bit then freeze. They always have such nice meaty ones so I buy a lot —they freeze well.

Been a while since I took time to take pictures. Misfits is still treating me pretty well. The last 3 weeks they have offered mango oranges--I really wanted to try them, but for 3 weeks now they are missing from the box. I got credits back each time but it's kind of weird that it keeps happening. I had also ordered 2 cases of sparkling water that weren't there. Also got credit for those. It's so easy to get problems resolved that it doesn't bother me too much when mistakes happen. Or maybe I'm just easy to please lol. I ordered a bit more than usual for the holiday weekend so we'd have some fruit to make a salad out of if we wished I'm addicted to those caramels and chocolates. This cost was a little over $150.

@gfwebMother's Day is what I always aimed for, too, when planting tomatoes. Sigh. Ronnie never listens to me. Maybe he will next year. He works so hard and does such a good job growing plants from seed in the greenhouse. They looked beautiful. Then they got really big and absolutely had to be planted--much too early.......I'm a big believer in the temp. of the dirt being at least 60F....it wasn't. I don't know if that's the reason or a combo of a lot of reasons but half the plants have died. The others look awful. I'm hoping they will snap out of it. We tried to buy some from the nursery a couple of days ago, but they weren't available any more. So, we will see. Last summer I wasn't really up to doing much health-wise. This summer I'm feeling better so there better be tomatoes to can! However, I've never had such beautiful onions. It's hard to tell but some of those greens are over 3' tall!

Strawberries from my cleaning angel friend's patch! I feel very lucky.

@DejahBoy do I want those chicken feet. I haven't been to the market to get some of those for such a long time. I've not been good at meal planning lately. I look up and it's five already with no idea what to make. So I pour a glass of wine and drink until something comes to me lol. Breakfast--frozen biscuits, stuffed jalapeños, venison sausage, eggs, and gravy. Fried chicken, potato salad, baked beans Venison taco salads Really good turkey paninis--I had leftover jalapeño stuffing which is just cream cheese, cheddar cheese, green onions and smoked paprika mixed together. Threw that on the sandwich on a whim. My cleaning angel friend is having a really hard time with her Lyme's disease and hasn't been able to clean since early January. We are keeping in touch, though, and the other day she felt well enough to stop over for a visit! I gave her a lot of fish that Ronnie had just caught and she gave us fresh picked strawberries from her patch! SO sweet and good. And so very nice of her. I froze 3 bags And had the rest over a little white cake that I made with some sweetened whipped cream. Last night was quesadillas to use up some left over steak.

Ronnie really likes the New England clam chowder. Many a winter day he has this for lunch in his man-garage.

That apple walnut cheese looks interesting. I'll be right up.

How fun and awesome is this?!

Thanks all--You guys are amazing.

@TicTacWhat a nice birthday meal. The gravlax really caught my eye. @weinooShrimp piccata --looks perfectly cooked. I want. Salad with a chicken/asparagus/pea/alfredoish sauce pasta thing lol. Pork enchiladas Potato salad, beans and ribs Roasted chicken, @Mmmpomps roasted potatoes and broccoli salad Pheasant piccata Preakness today! Might have to do something seafoodish for dinner.

SAME

Our mid-size store is having a sale this week. 78 cents a dozen. Limit 3 dozen. Best Choice brand.

Sigh. No Harbison available to me. Maybe next week?

Thanks for sharing the watermelon bread recipe. I want to make this when ours are ripe!

What a great trip! The food the sights! The OYSTERS. YUM.

Lots of asparagus has been popping up in the garden. I hope there is still more to come. Lasagna and an asparagus salad Yet another package of doves appeared in the freezer. I swear this is the last one. So, doves, stuffed peppers, pasta and asparagus. Roasted turkey sandwiches Chicken/asparagus stir fry Boudin, hashbrowns, eggs and asparagus with hollandaise sauce Some onions that didn't grow last summer popped up and were already starting to seed so I picked them along with some radishes Made some gyro meat out of lamb and venison Gyros last night

I LOVE HARBISON! My favorite all time. I hope they have it when I shop tomorrow. Do you remember how much it was?

You should be able to pull up your order--I use my iPhone so on your computer it might be slightly different--I go to Orders and then click on the order with the problem. On top of the order then is a Report Issue button so I click that. Then you can choose the item (s) with the problem and you immediately get a credit back on that item. You can either get a refund to your credit card or a store credit towards your next order. Hope this helps.

It is here in KS....for potlucks, family reunions (shudder) and such.

I'm with @kayb. Easy for me. Boil the elbow macaroni or whatever shape you want in salted water. Drain. Dump back into the pot you boiled in. Stir in cubes of Velveeta OR Cheez Whiz in the jar. Bit of black pepper. Keep warm and stir a bit. Done. I often add my canned tomatoes. Sometimes peppers if I want spicy. I've used leftover Velveeta cheese dip too.

I was just going to ask what that long grass looking stuff is. Sounds good!

I completely agree.
