OT - Happy Super Bowl Sunday rose friends!
Comments (5)My husband is a Patriot's fan, and he is thrilled. His 93 yo Mom and 100 yo Dad in Maine turned the game off early because it looked so hopeless. They are thrilled now. Your dip looks great, Cori Ann. My husband made the same dip, but yours is more artistic....See MoreHe really wants to see the Super Bowl!
Comments (3)Ha! Many years ago while we were living in LA, we decided to host a Sunday evening supper for the math dept at the independent school where my husband taught and was dept chairman. The Super Bowl was that afternoon; the party was that evening. We purposely chose a Sun evening so it would not conflict with social plans the faculty might have on a Fri or Sat night, and would also have to be an early evening with school the next morning. Two days before the party, my husband got a call from a college friend who had two Super Bowl tickets, inviting him to go with him. DH was a HUGE sports fan - really didn't matter what the sport was, he just loved sports. Of course he was thrilled! I questioned if he could get home in time for the party and he assured me that they were taking a special bus from Westwood and had been told that the buses always got out of the Rose Bowl (where it was held) much more quickly, and of course, there are special bus lanes on the freeways. So, off he went. The game was over and no DH. No cell phones either - this was probably 1983. Guests started arriving. No DH. I was embarrassed and I was livid! He found a pay phone when they finally got to Westwood, and he arrived at the party he was hosting, just as the last guests were leaving. I don't think he had a moment of regret - guys can be like that if they are huge sport's fans......See MoreSuper Bowl Ads?
Comments (28)Very short but loved the Kia ad with Josh Jacobs. Jacobs was briefly homeless while living with his dad. Drafted in the first round by the Oakland Raiders, Jacobs was a leading candidate for Rookie of the Year, smashing team records as running back. Jacobs repaid his father with a very loving gesture: https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2020/01/08/raiders-josh-jacobs-once-homeless-surprises-teary-eyed-father-with-new-house/ **** Although technically it wasn't an ad, I also loved the "Take it home, kid" ad for the NFL, which had past NFL stars in a video that segued into live action of "the kid" bringing the football into the stadium and handing it to the head official to start the game....See MoreFebruary -- Week 3 Super Bowl Sunday
Comments (68)I bought a whole chicken to cook this week. Usually, it provides 2 meals and a few jars of broth. The ones we bought from our friends are gone, so had to buy one at Natural Grocers. I like our friends' chickens better, but we can only get them when they process and IF they have too many for their freezers. I rarely eat poultry--maybe 3 or 4 times a year. I used to never eat it. Normally I'll roast it and then the guys pick off what they want to eat. I put the extra in the refrigerator to make either soup or chicken and rice the next day. Then drop the entire carcass and scraps into the crockpot to make the broth. If Tom would do the "harvesting", I would prepare them for the freezer. Thing is, I don't care a bit about eating it, but people in my family like meat and chicken. It's possible another friend and Tom could do this in the future. They raised pigs a couple of years ago. The meat lasted us about a year. There's still a few ham steaks in the freezer because I can't figure out how to cook them so that they like them. Maybe drop them in a pot of beans???? They also did a lamb a couple of months ago. I've made meatballs with it, but that's all I've done. Chickens could be a future endeavor. Speaking of chickens, mine are laying but not great. Maybe 4 eggs a day. Maybe it's the feed? Maybe it's my aging flock? They get lots of "free range" time and scraps to supplement their diet. Hwy, the greenstalk leaf is on sale right now. I'm considering buying one. I really wanted the original for strawberries, but would get the leaf one for greens and lettuce. I'm torn. Our patio gets lots of sun right now. There's currently very little shade. I just don't know how plants would do with so much sun. If we continue to live here, We want cover the patio. Don't want to spend the money on covering it IF the OTA runs us off. They are proceeding with their plan on our part of the turnpike--the east/west connector. It is just hard to know what to do. How much to invest in our property. The greenstalk COULD go with us wherever we go, tho. I do want to make this property (or our next) a bit different. I know that I would put a fast growing tree (Maybe a Globe Willow) on the far west side to provide shade if we were to move. I would also have our kitchen garden basically in our backyard for ease of quick harvest on things like cherry tomatoes, lunchbox peppers and herbs. It think the Vego beds are attractive for that purpose. Trying to decide what to do with the rest of the day.......See More- 9 years agolast modified: 9 years ago
