Susan in TN Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 (edited) We're having hot and sour soup for dinner and I am vexed over the lack of egg ribbons. My egg ribbons look like shredded egg mush. I try to do it just like the fancy chefs on youtube but somehow egg ribbons are not happening. Maybe the egg is too cold when it goes into the soup? It's an Egg Ribbon Booyah! This is the thread that never ends, It just goes on and on my friends. People started posting not knowing what it was, And they will keep on posting here forever just because... This is the thread that never ends You'd best come join it with your friends 'Cuz it will replace Facebook as the latest web-based craze And everyone will post here instead for the rest of their days This is the thread that's always there They'll cheer you up so don't despair The group is growing well as more people start checking in And we'll keep sucking them in because our cheer is addictive This is the thread that never ends It's better than a Mercedes Benz It helps with coffee withdrawal and other troubles, too Eighteen hundred pages of friends all cheering for you This thread keeps going on and on with record-setting length and fun It started forty-eight months ago from curiosity and all the fun and frolic has shown this is the place to be This is the thread that never ends... And the place where one finds special friends, the kind that have hearts that are strong and true Yes, ITT ladies, I am talking to you! This is the thread that never ends Yeah, it's superior to other trends Friends start out scratching their head in confusion, perhaps But then the laughter strikes and they gratefully tip their caps. This is the thread that never ends I had no idea when I entered in That what seems a little nuts might actually save me From going insane on days that are crazy 🤗 This is the thread that never ends....

For the first 3 or 4 days he gobbled it like Susan in TN with a bowl of ice cream. But then he was meh. And now since his haircut, he won't eat it at all. I think he's mostly traumatized by the lack of fluffiness. Sigh. Susan- I am not surprised. Not because there is anything wrong with the food but because it’s no longer novel to him anymore. BTDT many times with many dogs. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junie Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 It was so lovely today -- I actually went out in the backyard and kicked a soccer ball with dd14 and dd12. My body kept trying to tell me that I was stupid, but I didn't care. :) Also, dh grilled hamburgers, so my participation in making dinner was just a pasta salad. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Good morning! I'm sitting in the auto shop waiting area hoping they will be able to change the oil in the van some time in the next couple hours. I forgot my travel mug of coffee at home so I may have to take a walk down the street to McDonald's and get a cup. I remembered to bring the yogurt and apple. If it's going to be all day I can call ds27 and he'll come get me. In the mean time I have some piddly tasks I can work on and a book and they have hgtv playing on the big screen. Coffee! 😭 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sigh. I have 4 things on my schedule today. 3 during day and 1 during evening. 4 hours of things plus driving. I don't think I'll be getting ahead today.

Jean in Newcastle Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Five days until visitors. But it won’t actually be that many useful days. Tomorrow especially will be a bear of a day- dh is officiating at an outdoor in the freezing cold, graveside service. And it’s not easy to get to (might need a ferry ride- not sure). I need to find out some more logistical details. I did find my black tights. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Morning. It's Saturday. My week off is almost over. I'm not feeling well today. My stomach did some weird stuff in the middle of the night that led to me sleeping semi sitting up most of the night. Now it just feels rough. I ate breakfast okay and I didn't eat anything yesterday that was particularly unusual but I don't feel sick other than the icky stomach. Dh and I were going into NY to visit his aunt today. I ended up staying home. I really can't tell if I'm mildly sick, it's something I ate or what but his aunt is in her 80's and I don't want to potentially bring something that will make her sick. I also don't want to start feeling even worse on the ride in or in her tiny NY apartment. 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Bean Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 (edited) Hi! Been working all day so far on lesson plans and DS17's associates in science degree plan. We figured it out after 4 hours. He's wanting pre-optometry/medical so getting in all the math and chemistry we can now was tricky. I still couldn't get organic chem 2 in. DH actually mowed the lawn himself! Last time he did that, he blew up a new mower. This time he borrowed one from a friend of ours and did not explode it. He's thinking we can buy our own and save the $900/yr paying someone. I think he's a bit nuts, but okay 47 yr old man who burns easily and is like an all you can eat buffet to misquitoes. We'll see. I need to go to the store. Blah! Edited February 25, 2023 by Green Bean 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
