Re: So...whats for dinner?
Carole - glad the skin graft for DH was successful. I had 14 or 15 places frozen last week and the scabs are just now starting to peel off.
A neighbor brought me some hot, homemade chicken soup this afternoon. Creamy & no noodles, but it was packed with carrots, broccoli, onions, barley, and chicken. Perfect timing since I'd missed lunch.
So my leftover meatloaf & boiled new potatoes will have to wait until tomorrow.
Re: So...whats for dinner?
We spent hours at the dermatologist's office yesterday. My appointment with the NP didn't take long. She froze some small growths on my face. DH's session was much longer and more complicated. The skin graft on his ear was successful. I won't go into details but he had pain last night and didn't sleep well.
Yay on fishing. Give us a report.
I made an oven dish for dinner with leftover fried eggplant, a homemade tomato sauce, whole milk mozzarella and parmesan cheese. The oven was the outdoor gas grill. We both enjoyed the dish a lot. Side was a chopped salad.

Reader, The wonderful aroma is an incentive to prepare meals that cook for a while. I also love the smell from baking but I would be tempted to eat more than I should.
Carole, I’ll bet the mashed potatoes would taste better if you added your own sour cream and chives to the regular ones.
Wally, Hope you get fishing. That is more important than what you have for dinner.
Dinner tonight was salmon with orange sauce, zucchini and tater tots for DH.
Re: how about drinking?
Knew about my great uncle having two markers. One here where his parents are buried and the one overseas. We knew a little about the circumstances of how he died but not exactly where. My maternal grandmother, his sister had the picture of him in uniform that had been their mother's. She gave it to my mom many years ago and my mom gave it to me. On one of my previous searches I was able to find out his medals and the unit he served with and the mission where his death occured. He was a nose gunner on a B-24.
Had another surprise this morning. Was sitting in the living room and the house we are renting for now having my morning coffee and I saw someting moving in the back yard and thought it was a stray dog. I got up to get a better look and turns out it was a bear! First time since we moved here I saw one in the back yard. Even tough we are in an urban area, we have woods and train tracks just beyond our neighbors! Means that we are going to have to start bungee cording up the garbage bin again!
Re: how about drinking?
Working on the last of the pot holders today for the thing my cousin asked me to do them for. Did hot pads, pot holders and will also do a set of placemats for it.
Re: how about drinking?
DH and I celebrated our Silver Anniversary today! (The actual day was yesterday, but he had a class he needed to attend.) I got him a tricked out grill thermometer he's been wanting (for my 'hottie'!), and he got me one of those pendants that you can put your rings on. I'm a MT, when I'm not an entrepreneur, and I can't wear my wedding set when I work. We're also going out for dinner tonight, so we'll have to see what's on the menu!
Re: Can we have a forum for "older" people with bc?
I'm reading - just not writing. Hugs to all who need them.
Re: I say YES. YOU say NO....Numero Tre! Enjoy!
I stumbled across this resource. It's an aggregate site that hosts a directory of progressive-friendly stores and services. They also highlight woman-, BIPoC-, LGBTQ-, and veteran-owned businesses. If you want to ensure that your consumer dollars don't land in a conservative superPac coffer, here's one way to vet and support small businesses. I submitted Half-Flat to their directory, but I'm still waiting on the listing to be posted.
