IT'S FRIDAY NIGHT, TIME FOR TRIVIA. MARCH 10,2023

Welcome Trivia Players. ✨🌹

I did not see hubby this evening. Had back and hip pain all day. Though it makes for a very long day for him, I will try to make it up tomorrow. Will bring a care package of fruit and maybe a sandwich with native, Florida tomatoes.

Hi Oodiebom, sorry you are having that hip and back pain. I know it well, my hip let’s me aware of the change of weather.

The hip thing is new to me. Lower back pain I’m used to. No fun. And trying to get into the van, OH MY……As a passenger, I would be OK. Oh well.

WOW!! 52 years – congrats.

Hi maxienne. I was going bananas on the answer. Thank you.

xango, do you remember the song “soon it’s gonna rain, I can feel it.” Well, my back and hip made it difficult to get into the van to drive to rehab. I through the towel in at 5pm and notified the front desk people that I will be there tomorrow. Will try to make it to the Farmer’s Market for fruit and veggies. Since they make their own bread, will pick that up as well.

I know hip and back pain well. It’s impossible to do things when it happens. When hubby was in the hospital and I had to get the house ready for family coming down I had to be on Motrin a few times to sleep without pain.

I still work, just takes a longer amount of time. I tried Excedrin. Didn’t work. Rested for awhile and then went back to KP duties.

Do you remember the talk show host Jenny Jones?? Well, she has a number of recipes on YouTube called Jenny can cook. She has a recipe for crusty bread, that requires about FIVE (yep!)
minutes of hands-on work. You must have a cast iron or really heavy pot with a cover for it to work properly. It’s surprisingly good, and when I first saw this recipe, I thought it was a mistake. Try it. I have it on my WhatsApp, but am too computer illiterate to transfer it.

@xango,

I can smell your wonderful bread so knock, knock. 😎✨🌹

Hi Sheba, this time it turn out real good. I try different recipes, there so many on YouTube. I have a Bake With Julia big book, there’s a potato and Rosemary bread recipe. It makes great sandwiches and good with soup.

xango, you are making me very hungry. I had soup with veggies and wontons. Came out good. Hmm…..Think I will look for some Thermos bottles and if I find them, will make the soup for hubby. His room gets quite cold because of the A/C. I already mentioned it to the nurses and the receptionist. Hope they can turn it up some.

Baking with Julia is my all time favorite baking cookbook. The Danish is fantastic, better than ANY bakery product. Easy too, esp. if you make the fillings (which keep for a while) in advance.

Here’s my money saving tip: Goodwillbooks.com is a subsidiary of Goodwill Industries, and they have a gazillion books there. No shipping charges. I had bought my Julia book years ago when it first came out ( at full price) and also watched her shows on PBS, but now, whenever I see it is available, I buy them and give them away to new bakers.

@maxienne, thanks for the tip. I will look into them, I bet I’ll find something good.

@maxienne,

Glad I’m not the only one. We are getting a brief cold front tonight and a more powerful one Monday. Temps will not go down that much. It’s been in the mid 80’s and will remain that way through the weekend. Monday through Thursday we will be in the 70s during the day and 50s at night. I guess our weather will head towards the Northeast starting Monday night or so and become a huge storm as it connects with the one in the West. I surmise the snow plows will come out for the very first time for the season.

I’m here tonight, but still a little under the weather.

Hi Sanibel. Don’t tell me that you got that virus I had. And, I thought it was because you had no electricity due to the storms.

I’m not sure what it was. However, I have a lot of joint and muscle ache/pain. I thought it wear off, but it seems worse.

No, not what I had. It could have been Covid for the second time. Was just too weak to go out and didn’t dare ask someone to drive me to a Walk-In in case it was. I’m just getting my energy back now. So sorry to hear you lost your furbaby. I hope someday you will love another one. They are the best company.

Thank you.

Hi there, glad to see you. How under the weather are you? Are getting better?

@sanibelsheller

Hope you feel better soon.

That’s quite a name! Thanks for posting, you beat me to it.

Guess it’s a good Celtic name. Have to write it without the space between 1st and last names.

Good evening conniesue

thanks again maxienne.

Funny, xango, I know some of those recipes. I really need to get to the market. I’ve put it off too long. I’m sure it’s something hubby would like to do also.

Hi Barbo and thanx for the answer. You would think that with seeds being plural, so would the word peas. Go figure….😀😀😀

Exactly what I thought. I found both potatoes and Peas. Neither worked. I guess the person in charge of the answers did not get As in English. 😁

Yep, exactly what I was thinking.

@xango,
