Sorry to say, but this site has been so depressing for a few days. I thought I'd ask an average, everyday question....to make us all feel a little more normal today.
I made Eggplant Lasagna, and my BIL and SIL are coming for dinner. They leave for Cali tomorrow to see their beautiful grand daughter.
Sorry, sometimes we just need some REGULAR conversation.......or at least THIS caregiver does.
Not so familiar with Whoopie Pies in California, soI looked it up.
It seems a Maine speciality!
But I had already eaten.
So this morning, I had sourdough toast with cream cheese and strawberry jam.
My tummy liked it!
****I decided I needed to eat healthier so I'm having a twig of broccoli once a day. We'll see if the boyfriend says anything****
I hear you!
Enjoy your meal, what a treat.
I am no longer sharing meals with my Mom. She is barely awake and very limited eating.
So, at least I get to have more meals that I enjoy that she never did. But, it is rather like a consolation prize.
needs some fat added. Maine deer are some weird. Not like white tails in WV and PA. We usually have two to 3 moose a year. My DIL and one son always get a permit. Sometimes a grandson. There are so many of us it takes a lot of meat. We buy a steer and a hog too.
That's like a cow! And here, you pay around 1k for a cow and then 2.5k to have it dressed and you end up with about 500# of meat and bones. I am probably low on these #s with recent inflation and no 4H sales in '20 & '21 at the fair.
Our deer are really tiny, like the size of a large dog. Fun to watch but, I can't imagine shooting one for food. I have never been that hungry :-)
We have friends that came from Hershey PA and he is a hunter, he couldn't believe that you had to enter a lottery in AZ to go kill a deer for food.
My hubby trained a bird dog, a Brittany spaniel and he hires a guide that raises and places chuckers for hunting, pheasant available on occasion. Not as tasty as wild birds but, we take what we can get.
It's what I have on hand.
Chocolate dipped ice cream cone. I haven't had one of those in a decade or more, now I remember why. What a mess, yummy though. :-)
