So we'll be making ho made scratch fat fett pasta with a mock pancetta sauce using bacon. I've no idea what if anything to cook this morning.

We keep our house at 62 in the winter, although to be fair it is toasty by the woodstove. Cats often regard people as heated furniture, perhaps a symbiosis could be attained? I'm sorry to hear about your mobility struggles. Is it something physical therapy could help with? While I am waiting for the hazelnut cookies to set up, I made a batch of gluten free cut outs for my daughter who is home. It was just a small batch and although the cookies look nice, they taste like dust. Gluten free= sad for this Minnesota girl.

All the issues can be fixed, but I have been in a legal battle with my bank who I am suing in Federal Court. If I take have the needed surgeries I will be bedridden for months and they will foreclose on my home immediately. They have refused to allow me to make payments on it for four years and demand about a $100,000 deposit before I may resume payments. Had they waited for me to pay it back on my suggested schedule it would have been paid back in six months and would have been current over three and one-half years ago. So instead I am trapped and am trying to get a Federal Judge to rule in my favor. If they wanted the home so bad they could have taken it four years ago. I'm praying their refusal to accept payments for four years and constant harassment is enough to rule in my favor. Mrs. already knows the banks lawyers and individual family members have their names on ammunition. If I lose the home I will have nothing to lose and will take all of them with me. I've known that for three years now. In a nice guy until someone makes me not be.

User ID: 76539470 United States 02/14/2021 06:29 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The hazelnut cookies things were a bust. I measured everything really carefully but the hazelnuts never went to a paste like consistency so the cookie part was very dry and crumbly and then when I dipped them into the melted chocolate they just dissolved. So I stirred it all in and dropped it by spoonfuls onto parchment paper. At least we'll have some kind of nutty cornflake clusters. Can't waste chocolate! It might be good stirred into some vanilla ice cream...maybe a milkshake with some choccy vodka? Simple, you're Simply Brilliant.

Valentine’s Day is an old tradition from the Roman Empire. In Italian, it's "La Festa Degli Innamorati" (the party of/for lovers). Valentine’s Day was historically celebrated as a Spring Festival - by spending time outdoors, strolling in parks, sitting under trees or in beautiful gardens, and listening to music or talking. This is something still practiced there too! Italian couples today give each other small, chocolate-covered hazelnut candies by Perugina or other Italian chocolatiers. (The inside wrapper of Perguina Baci candies include romantic poetry.) Italian couples also follow the tradition of padlocking their love to a bridge or railing, and throwing the key away. In Verona, Italy – known as the city of Romeo and Juliet – there is a four-day Valentine’s celebration with heart lanterns lining the city and free concerts in the Piazza dei Signori. There is also a love-letter writing contest and romantic dinner specials in restaurants around town. P.S. - It's never too late for a word or two about chocolate... Hope you guys had a great day!!! ~S~ |

I have over to two hundred insulin pens on a shelf in the 'fridge. They supply them at no cost so I have built up quite a stock. And with the CGM on my arm I don't even need to do finger sticks to check my glucose, so I have shared many boxes of test strips to trusted GLP'ers.
