Good morning all you nice people on Santa's good list!


San - Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm afraid if the Belleview cat lady took Cappi in, she would never speak to me again!  He's been behaving the past day or two, so if he plays his cards right, he might stay around a bit longer.  Bert was also able to repair that line to the talking dog.  I'll have to take a picture of him, post it on FB and hope K2 can post it on here.  This dog is about 30 inches tall!!!


Dave - Glad to hear Kathi's teeth are not hurting.  Hopefully that was just a temporary side effect of her fall.

Yes, I definitely use a seat when working in the kitchen.  There is no way I could stand that long on these tile floors.  Heck, I can't stand for long anywhere without sitting or my back will be killing me.  That's been happening since Gary was a baby and I stood too long holding in shortly after he was born.  When I went to bend over to put him in his car seat, my back locked up and I couldn't bend over.  Since then I've had a bad back.  That's going on 50 years now!


K2 - Your beauty parlor is really doing a good job keeping the virus at bay.  I just take the easy way out - I cut my own hair!!  No one sees it, so who cares.  I used to do that all the time when the kids were little.  I also used to give myself a home perm.  Remember them?  I had a beautician living next door to us and she told me I can roll hair better than she could.  I believe it.  She was terrible!

You reminded me about making pizzeles.  I had forgotten about making them.  Except I make it with both Anise seeds and extract.  Bert's mother always made Anise flavored ones and as soon as it came out of the maker, you rolled in in a cone shape.  She always had someone (usually me) doing the rolling while she started the next one.   I just leave them flat now as I can't do both quickly enough.  Everyone loves them anyway and I can sit on my seat at the kitchen counter to do them.  Win/win all around.


What's on tap around here today, you might ask?  First off a trip to Publix for Bert to pick up the rest of the stuff I need to make chicken cacciatore for dinner tonight for when the gang comes over.  Not sure if I'll have a chance to bake anything today, but I might make the dough and then just have to slice & bake tomorrow.  Seeing as how it's almost noontime, I better get it in gear before I waste the whole day!


Have a wonderful day, everyone.  Stay safe and don't work too hard!!  :)
