Good afternoon, everyone! It's a nice warm day here which will be good for Karen's community sale.
Only got a few things planned for today that I can handle on my own. That's includes having to make dinner tonight. Ordered out for spaghetti & meatballs last night and it was only a bit better than what they serve at the hospital. Definitely not up to my standard.
I figured to make some chicken noodle soup today, but that seems to be a wash. Bert still hasn't come out of the bedroom and I need stuff to make the soup low sodium. I'm beginning to wonder which one of us is supposed to be taking it easy around here.
Wanted to get to Aldi's today to pick up some of the German Christmas cakes & candy they carry, but I am supposed to have a home health nurse coming. Depending on when and if she gets here, we'll see if I get to the store. Also need a trip to Dollar Tree for a few small ornaments to decorate the Norfolk pine tree a friend gave me last Christmas. It's on the cart right outside the window where I sit at the kitchen table. Might get some tiny lights for it too, if I ever get to the store.
Lee - Enjoy your trip to the litttle market. We have one coming next week to our community, but from past times, I'm not expecting much from the venders. I hope you make out better.
Karen - SO how did the sale go? I hope you managed to get rid of some stuff that you no longer needed. I also hope you didn't go wandering around and buy some more things!!
Kathie - I like Ensure protein drinks with ice chopped into it. Plus it's got to be chocolate. Unfortunately, I have no choice but to do the cooking around here right now. Missy is taking care of Jennifer who came down with viral meningitis. She's been running high fevers and the virus just has to run it's course. So Missy can't do the cooking here. Bert also cannot cook anything except steak and ribs. Not exactly what I should be eating right now. Thus - guess who HAS to cook?
Speaking of the devil, Bert just decided to show up here in the kitchen. Guess I better get off here for a while before home health gets here.
Have a great afternoon, gang, and enjoy whatever you have planned.
Well well, I see Dave just popped in. Believe me, the appetizers I have planned for Christmas Eve are not going to be high in sodium. Shrimp cocktail, deviled eggs and cream cheese topped with pepper jelly are all safe for me to eat. See ... I am behaving!!
