He dismissed that entirely. Most state Departments of Health and the CDC want us to do exactly that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare h20skibum Posted May 9, 2022 #57053 Share Posted May 9, 2022 How about a little food porn from Mother’s Day. Why not start out with some home made strawberry pie. Ok, this carrot cake was bought, but the bakery makes them oh so good. My grandson, who said he didn’t think he would like carrot cake, had two pieces. A platter of filet mignon. And a platter of baby back ribs. Everyone can add their own sauce flavor. My favorite sauce is Wango Tango. And on another note, they showed up to start up our bath remodel this morning. Perfect timing, because my wife is away for a few days. I told her to not bring any COVID home, since we test on Thursday. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having an easy day today and tomorrow I have to go to the hospital for x-rays on both of my painful Knees. I hope everyone is having a good day. Hopefully the x-rays find an easy cure for the pain. Take care😍 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have a list of all of our cruises, with the year that we've done them. We've only cruised 19 times so far, with 3 more booked. We've never been on the Summit, but was on the Millenium years ago. We've been on the Equinox twice, and Silhouette 3 times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned it to Bill about whether we have anything that is similar. He said, <jk> We could go to the casino and see the indigenous people? That would be truly different to have large communities with such a different lifestyle and way of life. The Amish are also known to be very good craftsman. They make and sell beautiful furniture as well as homes. Someone around the block from me had a huge tree fall on their roof and demolish their house during Hurricane Sandy. They hired Amish to rebuild. Stunning home and I hear the craftsmanship and detail inside is gorgeous. Took much longer to rebuild than a standard builder but they ended up with a home built far better than anyone else in the area. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So weird how everyone is effected differently, even though all had their shots and booster!🙅♀️ Ahh, sorry to hear this. It seems like more and more people are experiencing more symptoms in the last couple of weeks than earlier this year. I guess we will all get it at same time or another. I hope your Daughter feels better soon. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare h20skibum Posted May 9, 2022 #57061 Share Posted May 9, 2022 My California grandson’s school had 5 Covid cases last week, so they have masks recommended, but not required. Our school here has a few cases, after going a couple months with none. My daughter has started wearing a mask again in her classroom now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My girlfriend told me her elementary school had 56 reported cases for students and several teachers as of Friday. She was told the majority of the children had the sniffles. Masks are recommended but not required. It has been that way since the restart of school last year. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This morning was very windy and chilly but the wind has slowed down and temp is now 62 with bright sunshine. Yesterday was too chilly for us to do our tradition of buy / plant flowers around the house with my Son Chris. So instead I received a gift card for Ross and Chris and Donna wanted to learn how to make Meatloaf and scalloped potatoes. One of his Chris's favorite dishes but he said every time they make themselves it is gross. So I was able to sit back with a glass of wine and walk them thru my families recipe as they got their hands dirty. We had a lot of laughs. Donna was terrified of the mandoline for slicing the potatoes but she did good all fingers still attached. We cannot believe how much our grass has grown in the last week. Definitely will have to mow tomorrow. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My parents had some outdoor furniture for probably more than 30 +/- years that was handmade by the Amish. If you had bought that same set at garden center it would have probably fallen apart/rotted in 10-years. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What an honor that Chris and Donna wanted to learn exactly how to make a much-loved recipe from you, and you got to relax while they prepared the meal. What a great relationship you have with your soon-to-be new daughter-in-law, and she is lucky to be getting a loving and happy mother-in-law! When is the "Big Day"? It looks like I'll be mowing tomorrow also, if in fact, we do have a nice day here tomorrow! Still cold and breezy here today, and yes, the lawn has certainly grown around here also this past week. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years ago, the Amish used to come around our neighborhood with a truck loaded with Adirondack chairs for sale when we lived on S.I. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
