There were a lot of cars pulling off to the side and letting the passengers out with their luggage. I guess they figured faster to walk than wait in traffic. I also think they might have been Ubers or Lift. We find it less chaotic to go in the afternoon. Everybody wants to be on the first group to board😁. We don't. We get there when we get there. 🙂 Hope you and family are all better now? Any more cruises planned out of Bayonne? We will go on the Anthem in November and January. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have flashbacks to when she lived under furniture. I've always been a pushover for the furry things in the house. She did open her eyes and change position. OMG I love this picture! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why we were rushing everywhere to get the tests they wanted completed before they would start. Some places said they couldn’t do tests before October, which made no sense. The one test with such a long wait, we paid out of pocket for her to get it done last Friday. Prayers and best wishes for your daughter. You know she will make it with flying colors. 🙏🤞 I am sorry to read that the testing places are making you wait so long. That is just not right. Medicine is so buried in red tape and paperwork. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once parked and in the terminal check in was a breeze. we had dinner in CK this evening. Filet mignon melted in my mouth. Sorry dont know why underlining now. @Sea Dog. First drink was Kraken Colada with floater, then a painkiller, then a rum punch with kraken floater, then a glass of Riesling with dinner, even though I hate to mix. Is the parking garage open to all now or is it still just handicap parking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better than the frozen. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lionesss Posted August 29, 2022 #69422 Share Posted August 29, 2022 (edited) THE ORIGINAL CRISCO PIE SHELL RECIPE CIRCA EARLY 1960'S This is the recipe from my moms cookbook from an original can of Crisco. We have the label, although it has seen better days. 2 cups all purpose flour sifted 3/4 teaspoon of salt 3/4 cup of Crisco shortening chilled 3-6 tablespoons of ice cold water In a mixing bowl place flour, salt and Crisco Using a fork add slowly the water, for sure you will need 4 tablespoons sometimes more. Fork the mixture together until all flour blended in. The above would be enough to use on an apple pie with a top crust or 2 bottom crust for pumpkin pie. I have experimented with this recipe over the years, and the original Crisco works best. Do not try the butter Crisco, tasted weird. And the colder the water the better. You will definitely get your wrist exercise for the day with this technique. Tried a mixer, nope, not going to happen, to much for motor, got a new mixer out of it. Not enough batter to use kitchen aid mixer unless your doing a double batch. Enjoy The Apple pie juices soak into the bottom crust and I enjoy it more than the pie. (I always make my bottom crust thicker). Edited August 29, 2022 by Lionesss 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
