Im exactly the same way. I get all crazy when food goes bad. I am an expert at making use of leftovers and when we have too much stuff.

Stirfrys, salad toppings, soups, sauces.

I hate throwing food out. We do compost an all of fruit and veggy scraps and leftovers.

I'm usually that way. Lately, I've had difficulty eating the massive quantities of food left here by my family. I need to get a compost bin. Most of the food I can't/won't eat gets put on the deck railing for the crows. The rest gets chucked into the greenbelt to feed the critters there.

I think they're only available on resale sites now. But I love mine and will when I get to the very last page.

Maybe you can scan a page to use on your phone/tablet? I just use the Notes app on my phone.

Leftovers get put up in meal size portions then into the freezer.

always good to have a Plan B with many new recipes

I had bought a pasta machine early in our marriage. I'm usually a pretty good cook, but for some reason, this wasn't working out for me. I forgot why. The pasta machine got returned...

tldr
bad sunburn
well-meaning family friend
vinegar from head to toe

Pro Tip: vinegar does not, in fact, help take the heat/sting out of sunburn. It does make you smell like a and hate vinegar for the rest of your life

This was 40+ yrs ago and I still can only tolerate small amounts of vinegar

That's an urban myth that vinegar helps a sunburn. Actually, because it's an acid, it can actually damage your skin more. Taking a bicarbonate of soda bath is a much better choice!

Hell Kittens rule supreme in your absence
they will be remembered of you upon your return

They just need a cat-o-nine-tails! (I'll see myself out!)

 

[Lilianna23]

I am a little out of sorts today.....

What's going on, girl?

 

[Lilianna23]

Just blah... with waves of anxiety.. brain telling me to eat junk.... I have nothing to really worry about..... I sometimes wish I could flash a special light in peoples eyes so they forget me. I just don't want to deal with worry about or talk to them.... it doesn't bring me joy

I'm so sorry, sweetie!

 

[Lilianna23]

This is the latest daylily I can ever remember. They usually peak in early July, but this year many of them lasted into mid August, which is fairly typical.

But this one, for whatever reason decided to go all the way till September!

Beautiful, W!

Okay, home. Cats are good. Drive was long, as usual. The truck is back and good as ever, it seems. I missed it - like that vehicle a lawt. Traffic was heavy but there wasn't much st000pid on the roads. Gas prices have dropped a bit. TDK has spent some time in my lap. Ethyl made her presence known. I don't want to have to get up and got to work tomorrow, but I will appreciate getting paid come Thursday. Being an adult isn't always easy but it doesn't suck all the time.


Thank you lot for all the well wishes. Hope Miss_K feels more gooderer. I was shocked to see the siding crew working on the new house next door, but then I remembered that ti's just another Monday for them.

I bet TDK missed you! Ethyl, maybe not so much!

I can't sleep with mine. Fat-boy will sleep on my face smothering me. I wake up and put him next to me, but he gets right back and then licks my nose and lips. Drives me crazy. Then my girl is wired all night and speed runs across me and my face, get up in the window seal above my head and goes in and out of the blinds. I had to put them out of my room at night to sleep. I don't get much as it is.

My girl sleeps with me. If I'm on the couch, she sleeps between my legs. If I'm in the bed, she sleeps next to me. She will growl at me if I dare to disturb her sleep. She thinks she weighs 1200 lbs, not 12!

So this is what I walked into tonight when I was going to do a safety briefing with our Graveyard.

Still awake.... thinking about just getting up

I think it’s a generational thing …you dont waste anything…particularly food!

 

[Greylag]

Still awake.... thinking about just getting up

Oh No can you find a way to switch off?

 

[Lilianna23]

I may try that with Fred when I get a chance. We'll see. I still say that Ethyl will school the Hell Kittens, who are really pleasant and smart little cats. They're just into everything.


Off to hit the rack. You kids have funn.

Sleep well, Wat!

 

[Lilianna23]

Night all.... I reached out to OM.... we will see if she responds

Good night, K! Dream deeply and sweetly!

 

[Lilianna23]

so rewarding when the right cat(s) picks you though

When I adopted my girls before this one, the breeder said they must choose me. They did and I took them home the day I met them. They had good doggie lives and added immensely to mine!

 

[Lilianna23]

Tomorrow's a work day again... *sigh*
Time to toodle off for the night
Sweet Dreams, all

Good night, Likes!

 

[Lilianna23]

Back to work after 9 days off here.....I'm not ready

Never ready to go back to work!

 

[Lilianna23]

I can't sleep..... night everyone

Shall I sing you a lullaby? Just the threat alone is usually enough to make others at least TRY to sleep!

 

[Lilianna23]

Rain is the best weather ever. We need it here

We need more! I just looked at the weather report. In the 90s later this week. I can't even!

 

[Lilianna23]

Leftovers get put up in meal size portions then into the freezer.

I've done that with some.
