let's start today with some shoulder shrugs. Slowly up... back... and then down... breathe in and out. One more shoulder roll... up... back... down...
If you are like me, you probably carry lots of tension in your shoulders.

This is not a good time to have allergies kick in. Anyone else dealing with that? I have a tickle in my throat but I don't want to cough and freak my family out. (haha!! Gary just asked- I hear you are coughing, you feel ok? :p)

Once the clouds and fog cleared out, the weather was gorgeous. Scott didn't want to hike because of the rain and mud but he is working on a
project with Sculpy so he is keeping busy in his own way. Gary, Cait and I took the 3 dogs for a walk before dinner. J and R and Gary were done after the first leg (1/4 mile - we are all so out of shape) and Cait and I went a little farther on the street with W. It felt so surreal, the sun was shining, the breeze was warm, we were chatting- all at the same time as hell breaking loose all over the world.

I scrapped a page for the first birthday challenge and if you haven't seen yet, there is going to be an online chat this afternoon.
I plan on being there unless I have somewhere else I need to be. :pound:

I am going to head over to the FP this morning and maybe stop in at the dollar store on my way back. They usually have heavy cream so I can get that to mix with milk for our half and half. I tried to place a Shop from Home order online yesterday and there are no open spots. At all. The site lists spots until March 28 and there is not one left.

Gratitudes:
-I am seeing a lot of people stepping up to make CDC-approved masks. My MIL and my SIL's sister are already on it.
- Over 1000 retired Drs, nurses, medical professionals in NYC came out of retirement to help the onslaught in the City's hospitals. That is a selflessness I cannot fathom.
- closer to home, the sun is out and my forsythia is blooming

xoxo!

Trudy- thanks for dancing with me! It is crazy to think that the O is 14! Time sure flies.
Did you do your shopping yesterday? I think that it was very smart of you to not wait for the weekend. I am struggling with the flitting about from thing to thing too. It might get a bit more settled next week when the kids have classes again although I have no idea if they will be at set times or "watch when you can."

Nancy- that was really nice that the store let him in to shop, I am guessing he told them he was shopping for the "old folks." LOL My dad tried the Stop and Shop senior hours and it was crowded and the shelves were bare. It has to be so hard.
My kids are frustrated that they haven't gotten any guidance yet for the classes and I told them that the profs are probably still trying to figure it all out themselves.
Hope that Luther and the boys are all well today too.

Kay- whee! So many of us dancing- :dance:
I am sad to hear that you and your cousin won't be together. It sounds like it is the smart decision ATM but it has to be hard. Good for you to be looking at the bright side that you got all of that work done anyway. Good luck to DD#1

Rae- while I am sorry that you are feeling the effects of stress, I am glad that you are able to recognize them and find ways to cope before they overwhelm you. I have been trying to do the same with varying degrees of success day to day (minute to minute if I am honest :D) That is sweet of you to make banana bread for you and for B. I didn't think about her having been in a hospital for so long. I am with ya-- so glad she is in a much safer place now.

Jean- we caved and ordered two new puzzles from Amazon. :oops: At this point, another $30 on the credit card isn't going to break us any more than we are already broke haha! I feel the same, I don't know what places might be open or not to hike. I know state parks are closed. Thanks for the info from your library.

Trudy- the picnic sounds like it was a huge success! Bet the boys came home tired and happy.
That is going to be funny to see what people's hair is going to look like after this. Cait and Gary won't look any different. Mine will have roots galore. Scott- OMG, it is going to be a mess. His hair is so curly when it gets long.

Laurie- Hi there!! I am sorry that you are having to still work but at the same time, I am glad that you have a job. Hope o see you around here a lot more!

Not sure I am up to dancing this AM. Woke up at 3:30AM and couldn't go back to sleep. Ugh... hate when that happens. At least I did get about 6 hours sleep but hate to be up at that time.

Yesterday, I made meat loaf as I have been craving it. Fixed enough for 6 meals for me. Had that along with baked potato and a fresh fruit salad for supper. Was glad to have the oven on as it was cold all day... that warmed up the kitchen nicely. Think I will make some apple cobbler dessert soon... have some apples that need to be used up before they go mushy. I would make apple crisp but realized that I only have a limited amount of butter and running low on olive oil. But, I do have a full box of bisquick... LOL

I am very sad that my cousin won't be moving here but know it was the right decision for both of us. Needless to say, my emotions have been like a yo-yo... up and down and it will take some time to adjust to the change in plans for the future. Have a lot to unpack and/or move back where it was, etc but there is no rush on getting it done except that when I walk by the guest room it is a reminder of what is not going to happen which makes me sad. So for now, I will have the door almost closed - need it open slightly to keep the heat circulating in that area.

Yes, last week I saw the reminder that re-usable bags could carry germs/infection and should be washed after every use. So I washed them using Lysol disinfectant right after I got home from the store. Then I saw yesterday that most places now do not allow the reusable bags at all.

No personals today as the mind is a bit scattered. Will try to make the Zoom Chat at noon today.

Things to be thankful for today:
Seeing all the movies I have on VHS tapes [numbers over 150+) when I was looking for the home movies tape and that I still have a VHS tape player
Having plenty of books in my collection and I also like to re-read favorites
Day 5 of in-home isolation and no temp so far

Good morning ladies. I'm working this morning, have a bit of desk work to finish up and am happy to have it as my workload is probably going to be reduce next week, as will my paycheque. My main boss might end up working by telemedicine close to his usual workload but the other I think is going to work half of her normal, judging by the online schedule I saw. So at this point I welcome whatever work I get. D's company have guaranteed salaries for 3 months while this is going on. So that is good news.

I was scrapping last night on my LR desktop computer and it shut down twice as I was creating a page...ugh. I should have brought it in sooner to see if I can update it but now I'll have to wait while this pandemic is happening.

I'll get out for a walk later, will sort thru the freezers later and need to re-package the meat I got this week into family sized servings. Tonight I'll scrap and binge watch some shows.

Chris - hope you find the cream this morning. I should grab another half and half before I run out as dairy runs out quickly in the stores right now.

Kay - our area too isn't allowing re-usable bags into their stores. I was thinking of meatloaf too.

I"m getting another coffee and then need to shower and get to work for a bit.

Hope to see you all in the chat later.

I'm feeling a bit dreary like the weather. Today should have been the meeting of my computer genealogy group. But anyway, after shoulder shrugs I feel better. Plan to make another loaf of apple nutty bread. Not too long ago in cleaning out a bookcase shelf I found a book fallen behind others. It is a cookbook I got at the GAR (Grand Army of the Republic, once a big deal organization of Union veterans) museum in Springfield, Illinois. I found the recipe there and tried it. We've been eating it for breakfast and really like it. It uses applesauce and lots of chopped pecans.

Chris, thanks for more therapy! Interesting that you bought more puzzles. Glad we have new ones still. When I did an order in Feb. they were out of one we wanted but let me know when it came in again and that's the one we're doing now. So it was really an extra. Glad you got out to walk, especially in the nice weather. This morning though our garage roof was white but melted now.

Kay, sorry you woke so early, but you must have started early if you still got six hours. That meatloaf sounds good and the apple crumble too. Hope you make the chat in a bit.

Rae, sounds like you'll still have a lot of work even if not as much. And D's company is doing right by their employees for sure. Getting out with your camera should still be good therapy for you.

Morning ladies... I hope that everyone is having fun at the Birthday Party!! I hope to be able to join you for the chat today. It might be only for a few minutes as DH wants to head out and pick up a few things at the wine store. Hopefully they are still open! Today is another sunny day, it is still chilly out, but hopefully it will warm up later this afternoon. I had a nice face time with Isaac and Sadie yesterday! Sadie is so bored and wants to be able to play with her friends, it makes me sad that she can not :sad: Isaac however is somewhat of a homebody anyway so this is not really bothering him too much! He has been reading like a mad man and got all three of the hunger game books read in three days. Jason and Jackie have gotten the whole upstairs of the house painted and have now run out of paint. No more painting until it is safe to venture out again. There area has been hard hit with the virus, so they do not want to risk going out unnecessarily. A good decision for sure! I hope to spend lots of time here today and with my painting. We will enjoy the afternoon sun out on the deck later and talk with the neighbours who are all doing the same thing everyday. We gather on our decks and chat/yell across the street LOL. Some pull their lawn chairs to the end of the driveway with their glasses of wine and visit from afar, so funny!!

Chris - Look at your post count!! Can't wait to see what will happen when you hit 50,000!! Wow what a blabbermouth you are :pound: Just kidding!! Yup I am not looking forward to seeing what my hair will be like when this is all over and done with! Ugh the grey and my grey is not a nice grey, it is mousey and ugly! Oh well I guess that is the least of our worries, right? Hope the kids can get on a good schedule for their classes. It must be hard for the teachers to change to this way of education! Hope that you are just dealing with allergies and nothing else :fear:

Kay - Ugh on waking up at 3am!! Yummm meatloaf!! I haven't had that in ages. I might have to make it now that I am salivating over yours LOL. I am sorry that you are feeling sad about your cousin not moving in with you. Hope that she will be happy with her decision! Ya no re-usable bags here either and just when we were getting everyone away from plastic :mmph:

Sheesh another face time call coming in from the boys, so gotta go. Hope you all have a lovely day and hope to get back to catch up later on! CYL!! :wave:

Sorry about Zoom...No mic or camera... and couldn't hear what was going even though the speakers I have work on every other site. Sorry I couldn't join in or understand what all was going on.

Couldn't stand walking by guest room so moved furniture and wall hangings back in place where they were before. Gave me a feeling of calm once it was done. Now the door can be open and no more sad feelings seeing it. Funny how doing something lifted my spirits.

Oh, Chris... you really are a chatty lady!!! Can't wait to see it when the count goes over!

Gotta run... call from family coming in.

Good morning girls!
I wasn't good company previous days. As I saw everybody continued to talk about that think I can break my promise. So the situation got really nasty here! Eight day of quarantine and people get really bored. TV drive them crazy. One scientist explain that 80% of the people will get sick anyway, so if you are young and healthy as fast you goes into it soon will make immune response and can go back to your normal schedule. One politician said that we need to isolate only people after they 60th, and everybody under that to go back on work before our economy to collapse. And with only one morning show lots of people go out in the wonderful sunny weather. Of course people after 60th are these who most stay in parks, so they start to protest and go out too. Government have no other option except to lock down the towns. We can't leave our own town now. Which mean I have to shop at my town where everything is overpriced. In additional stores speculated that they don't have anymore some brands, so we pay more for less quality. Grrr!
But the top of the madness was when we was just chill at Instagram and some nuts Brazilian chick join and start argued and curse that we Europeans are still have fun and neglected the situation, till her country is suffering so bad. She was totally nuts post to many of us, instead to go speak directly to our governments. They blocked it fast, but was enough to spoil our fun.
Just because now we are under pandemic it's doesn't mean that global warming, war, poverty, hunger in Africa, and all other problems are disappear. Most of us are volunteer at something. And we are work for better world in the same time we are got fun in our personal life. So excuse us if we don't care that now have one more problem we to fight for.
These people who never aren't been passionate in anything important now when hit with problem that attack them personal use it to comes to offend and argued with others. Using the spotlight of the situation in very ugly way. :tsk:
I'm in so bad mood, that I even messed up the time zone and missed the live chat here yesterday.


Chris, I'm happy to hear you have nice walk! Looks like you town aren't on stage of quarantine yet. Enjoy to the Spring you was waiting so long! Hhhh, allergies, I'm waiting this to hit me every moment. Will be 'interesting' to wear mask till my nose is sore.

Rae, In my family only dad left to work this month, and as there is no clearance for compensation, we will have to unblock, our summer vacations fund. And I'm in similar situation as you with my computer, I have problem with the USB hubs, and lose connection or mouse & claviature action, but no chance to fix it now when the money will be needed in other direction.

Jean, baking is really good anti stress therapy. My sister makes one very difficult puzzle now (if I not forget will take pic when is ready), so I tried but this isn't so fun for my poor eyes.

Trudy, we had similar afternoon, as we was got our bench at the yard and waving with the other neighbours. Your kids are so active and productive, bravo! Our acquaintances are murmuring that in previous Spring breaks they can't take they children away from the playstation, but of course now they all insist to go play out LOL.

Kay, so sorry that your cousin can't come, it's not fun to be alone at this time of insulation. At least you have big family to chat with on phone!

Nancy, hope the noise house not disturb you and the weather is good!

Gratitudes today:
Daily O's for making me smile

I have to get a better grip on days and times. I had to think and double-check what today was and did I go to the FP yesterday? Was that really only 24 hours ago? I feel like the Picasso painting of all of the crazy clocks.

Today's breathing-- let's go deep into the belly...put your hand over your abdomen and breathe. Try to empty your lungs as best you can, then fill them back up. Annnnd... relax. :)

yes, today is Sunday and I hope that all of you who like to attend church have been able to find an online or TV option. My SIL's church is streaming a service every Sunday at 9.30 and my dad is watching EWTN. I bet that helps a lot of people stay grounded.

FP was curbside yesterday. Parked the car, they set down a couple of bags and then we drove off. The big score was a roll of TP :D The fam had a bit of a blowup yesterday. Gary and Scott are both identically stubborn men. Both have to get the last word in. That is an issue on a good day, let alone at this point, esp since Scot is very worried about Leah who having symptoms- fever, achy, cough, fatigue. But after that, things calmed down a lot. The four of us took the 3 dogs and 2 baby rats for a walk. Cait has a little pouch carrier that looks like a fluffy purse with a mesh window. So the babies went on a small field trip. hahaha!! After dinner, we played Mario Cart. After 9 races, I had 2 points. I lost every race except one I can in 11th place instead of 12th. The kids laugh at me and make such fun. And it doesn't matter as long as I hear them laughing. I told them it is a really good thing I don't drive like that in real life. :car:

Today I am making corned beef and cabbage for dinner and I think I need to make another batch of dog treats if I have any oats left.

HAGD!!!

I have to make personals quick since I have to get the corned beef cooking.

kay- Sorry about the sleep issues, today I was up at 4 am and couldn't get back to sleep. Great idea for the meatloaf, I think I have some ground turkey in the freezer, maybe I could make that instead of meatballs with it. I will have to check with Scott and Gary. I saw a post how after the lockdowns lift everyone is either going to be a gourmet chef or an alcoholic LOLI mad the fam happy when I said that maybe I will make some Christmas cookies this week.
I hope that the mood evens out a bit. It has to be difficult for everyone.

Rae- so sorry to hear about the work slowdown for you. That is a relief that D will get paid. whew!! I didn't stop to look for any cream.

Jean- I hope the weather is better and that you are also feeling better- It was neat seeing you even though I couldn't hear anything on the chat. If it isn't too hard, can you share the apple bread recipe please? what a cool cookbook that must be. very happy that the Ooos make you smile--me too!

Trudy- you looked so cute too at the chat. I feel so bad for the little ones who don't understand why they can't play with friends. :(
That is awesome what you and the neighbors are doing to stay in touch!

Felis- you know what am going to say-- talk about whatever you want or need to. And vent away, it is OK to be angry and sad and disappointed and angry again.
My state is on lockdown too but we are allowed to go out to walk either with people we are isolating with or walking more than 6 feet away. So the family and dogs are fine and long as we don't get slow to anyone else.
I love your gratitudes! I hope you feel better today.

I love you all!!

Morning O-zies! I hope that you all come and join me in the Day 3 Challenge!! https://ozone.oscraps.com/forum/showthread.php?t=39140. It was a really hard choice for me and took many days to finally get my page done LOL. Well here we are all ready to go into week 2 of self isolation. Other than getting the groceries we needed and some supplies at Home Depot we have pretty much been staying at home. It was very strange going to Home Depot as they were only letting people into the store at one door and exiting out another. Only allowing a few customers in at a time, the line up to get in wasn't too long and everyone stayed at least 6ft away from each other. I quickly got in and out and was supplied with a wipe before using the machine to pay for my supplies. I sure hope we never have to go through this again in our lifetime! DH was saying that they had to watch a video at work about pandemics and they seem to occur every 20 years or so. So if it happens again we will both be in our mid 80's yikes!!! It was fun to be in chat yesterday, however I could not stay there too long, we were ready to head out to the Home Depot and wanted to get there before it got too busy. I can't wait for the next one and hope everyone can get their cameras and microphones set up! It was cute to see Jean's DH and hear that he refers to us as to where we live LOL.

Chris - Sorry that Scott and Gary are having to battle it out! I know my son and DH were like that when he still lived at home. Most of the time they got along great, but then there were those days when there was just to much testosterone in the room LOL. Poor Leah, I hope she is feeling better soon! Will she be tested for COVID19 or do they not worry about doing that if she is self isolating anyway? Our daughter in law Jackie's Mom is flying back to the Island today, not sure why she has waited so long, so hope that she will be ok once she gets back with her DH. He flew home last week, still not sure why she did not go with him? Although I guess they were glad to have her there to help keep the kids entertained. Nice that you can all get out for a walk, how cute that you took the rats with you! :love: Glad you got your score of TP at the FP yesterday! I see where Costco is not allowing people to return all the TP that they hoarded and now can't get rid of. Silly people!! The family down the street has 4 grown kids that are all living at home and it looked like a block party going on down the street with them all out on their lawn chairs soaking up the sunshine at the end of their driveway LOL. Hope that you make some yummy cookies for the family today! Lucky them!!

Felis - Don't blame you for being in a bad mood! Why is there always one person that ruin your fun by saying inappropriate things?? I watched Burton Cummings live stream yesterday, I love his voice and he still can sing so well! How nice for all the musicians to sing to us, such a lovely gift! I hope that you will have a better next few days!! :hug:

Kay - Glad that you are feeling better about the empty room! Keep yourself busy with things that you love to do, that is what I will try to do all this next week! Trying to not leave the house for anything this week. Sounds like the rains are coming and it will not be nice to even go for a walk. :mmph:

Well I better get some breakfast for my DH and then get the :washing: started! Have a great day everyone, lets all do some scrapping today!! :wave:

I am so happy to have sunshine today! It is still cold but looking outside feels good and the birds are active. I've gotten into a routine of making popcorn on Sunday afternoon and look forward to that. :pop2: Haven't decided what's for dinner. Other than St. Patrick's Day for corned beef we haven't been doing carry out which means I've been cooking every night which is a huge change. I want to support the local places we frequent, but am squeamish about the contact.

The chat yesterday was fun and it was nice seeing folks. Trudy you look just like your pictures. Wasn't DH funny wandering into view? He's basically nosy and wondered who I was talking to. Chris I was disappointed your setup didn't work. Hope there is a next time soon. I'm thinking about who I would pick for my birthday companion. That's tough so far, especially excluding relatives for a genealogist.

Chris, given that Scott is having a hard time in general it isn't surprising he would have it come out with his dad. He needs to spend more time outside. Glad you got the corned beef and cabbage and can have that tonight. Hope you like this recipe:
APPLE NUTTY BREAD

2 c. flour
3/4 c. sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 c. pecans, chopped
1 egg beaten
1 c. applesauce

Combine all ingredients in large bowl. Stir just enough to moisten. Pour batter into a greased loaf pan. Bake in preheated, 300° oven 1 hour or until done.​

It is pretty sweet even though I use unsweetened applesauce, so I use a tad less sugar and up the applesauce. The batter is stiff so "pour" doesn't seem quite the right verb. ;)

Trudy, interesting story about how Home Depot operated. Sounds pretty workable. It is weird being home all the time. Hope your scrapping and painting keep you going. You did a super LO about Robin Williams.

Felis, so sorry people are causing you grief. Chris is right though, please feel free to vent here. Having to shop only in your town does sound like a problem as you've mentioned the price being higher and selection less. It's great what musicians are doing online. It's wonderful how much content is being provided online of many kinds.

Kay, well rats about your problem with the chat. Hope it can be fixed for the next time. Nice that you were able to change the room to look less forlorn.

Rae, so nice seeing you in the chat as well.

good afternoon - well it has been a busy weekend. Got an email from my girlfriend that a woman at the wake for her MIL test positive for Corona. I was not their but I was at their home but I washed my hands both coming and going. The family is now under quarantine for the next 2 weeks. WOW. Then my son brought his girlfriend to the house. Prior though he texts and says can we clean up his clothes mess. I can now see I have a dining room but that kid owes. However I am so glad that we got it cleaned and it looks so good. And my DH was also cleaning so that was awesome. It is the first time we have met her in person. They brought us Krispy Kreme donuts. They had to wait 45 min in the drive through line. It just opened. I have to say that I am not a big fan their donuts. I guess I grew up on Dunkin. Then we all took Luther to Cheesequake park for a walk. Luther does not whine anymore as he has gotten used to the drive. The walk was awesome just over 2 miles. There were lots of people and dogs although there was plenty of distance between everyone. There were groups but they were families so that seemed reasonable. Today is sunny but so much colder. We still got Luther out to a local park and again got in a little over 2 miles. Now my DH is making prime rib for dinner and it smells so good. Not much else except I am waiting to see Outlander tonight. It is hard to wait a week between episodes. I like watching on my time schedule.

Chris I am surprised you kids professors have not figured it out. My DH and those under him have figured it out and are up and running. I am sure your kids' professors will too. It is so nice to be out on walks. And yes living together without space is hard. It does cause stress. But I was reminded that Ann Franks and her family were in isolation for 700 days. I used to play Mario Cart and was always last. The only time my DH won was when he made the kids run the races backwards. Hope you got outside today!

Kay so sorry your cousin is not coming out but it sounds like you have decided that its ok. Glad the room is back ship shape. Hope sleep comes better to night. My DH uses Zoom and he had to do it on my computer as his iPad would not do it correctly.

Trudy I will have to try your birthday challenge. I like the idea! I think girls like Sadie tend to be more outgoing so not surprised she is going crazy. Glad that the boys had a great time with the grandparents.

Rae work is slowing for all. Glad you know your stressed and what to do. Hope to see more photos of birds, squirrels and Taz.

Jean so sorry you cant get to meetings or eat at fav restaurants. It is the pits! That is why it is so good we all have hobbies!

Felis please vent. In the US all the young are still partying at the beaches during spring break as if they have not a care in the world. I hope your town is not on lock down for too long.

Have a great day! Stay safe.

Good very early morning girls!
And we have snow!!! Amazing! I was wearing only shirt at Saturday! :smow:

I have to start with IMPORTANT note to Jean, in particular, but to all of us too: Do NOT post links to direct web cam of animals without warning notice "Felis to NOT open this!!!" :laugh: . 'Cause I can spend literally hours to watch how one young bird doing nothing, and I did it past few days! :laugh with tears: . It took me months to step back from the Qilliam the hedgehog cam, but now I have new object one little albatross in New Zealand. He don't do anything except to stay on the wind, so I guess it's kid, but I can't see parents to care for him. Please these of you with knowledge about the birds, to explain me why he is alone, because I'm starting to get scared for him https://www.allaboutbirds.org/cams/royal-albatross/ ! My family can't understand how I can spend so much time watching bird, but it's so cool. It's like meditation for me! Long meditation!
It was gloomy and windy whole day, and because in previous warm days we vacuumed, washed and clean the cat house at the best Spring cleaning from years, then our house too, and mom cleaned the garden, there was nothing urgent To do at Sunday, so I spend it mostly on the computer. I'm start a little research to find why my sleeping regime is so shuffled. And why I'm wake up after night sleep tired, but have excellent condition when switch nights to day sleep. I watched too much videos which now I systematize, but one of them was this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiYm20F9WXU . Chris, I think you may want to see the end! But I'm not sure did will work for you.
Thank you so much, to all of you, for the nice words and virtual hugs! I needed it and really continued in better mood after reading them!

Trudy, I LOVE your birthday challenge! So much fun to play with that! Thank you!
The situation in our stores is similar as you described Home Depot, but we have to wear masks too. I don't know when this situation will repeat, but hope to not stay for so long, as the Spanish flu, I watched pictures from it from before century and it's takes three years, good that the modern medicine is faster!
:shy: I'll have to check Burton Cummings, I'm afraid I'm not familiar.

Chris, uhh, family fights! Yep so familiar! :roll: Don't worry! Hope Leah will feels better fast! Oh, I laugh so much on the rats walk! In my plans is to buy cats backpack, as my cage is so heavy, and no need it for regular exams. The model with big window can work for rats too, maybe?! Our minister was kidding this morning people to hurry to adopt dog, because they will start check do you go on walk with your own dog. Lots of people get the neighbours or just street dogs and left them back after walk, as offisers don't stop dogs owners. The joke of the day was 12 floor building bring on walk one dog, L O L the dog is non stop out.

Jean, I'm not sure did I have to talk with you at all, as I explained above LOL ! Love these bird cams! And yes it's so fun to watch musicians all over the world together even separate now! Oh, thanks for the recipe! We have lots of apple, now have to find flour and my try it too!

Nancy, oh, how exciting to meet your son's new girlfriend! Hmm, we are allowed only one person per dog, but lots of people still break the rules, so we waiting to see the new restriction that will come after towns are locked now.

Gratitudes today:
snow
