    Preserving food

    Not finding them soon enough has been my problem, too, @Mary Stetler . I have some planted in various places but I never notice where they are at an until they are 2 feet tall and starting to bush out. I just ordered 20 more starts, and this time, Bobby is going to make us a dedicated asparagus...

    The Story is in the Song…

    Another great song writer and storyteller was Kris Kristofferson. Most of his songs were a story of one kind or another, and I live his gravelly voice.

    What's bothering you right now?

    That is awesome, @Nancy Hart , and I am glad that worked for you. It has been almost 20 years since I had a flip phone, and I didn’t understand it back when I had it. I didn’t want the iPhone either, when my daughter gave it to me, but once I learned how to use it, it was so much simpler to...

    The Democrats have shut the government down

    It looks like Schumer is trying to shut the government down again ! This is totally disgusting to do this right now. We just had one of the worst winter storms ever and people are still without power, roads are blocked with trees and power lines, people are freezing all over the eastern part of...

    Time you went bed / woke up

    We usually go to be around 9PM and get up anywhere between 4-6 AM. It is hard to switch back and forth from DST and Standard time each year, and even harder for the dogs to understand. They expect their nighttime treat to arrive at 8:30, no matter what the clock says. So, we are on “Dog Time”...

    What's bothering you right now?

    I don’t know anything about those phones, but if they have a “settings” icon, you might be able to open that and find the way to change the opening page, like we used to do on the old computers.

    Last thing you ate

    I like potato soup with onions, but I usually just put the onions in after slicing them, and not cooking them first when I make soup with onions in it. How did the soup turn out, @Nancy Hart ?

    Cooking at home or eating out

    We actually made the trip to Krogers today for grocery shopping. We seldom eat out anymore, but this month was my birthday and next month is Bobby’s, so we will be going out for lunch to celebrate his birthday and Valentine’s Day. I am looking forward to that.

    Cooking at home or eating out

    The weather is still way to go to venture out of the house, and even too cold for my granola and yogurt breakfast. So, this morning it is apple and oatmeal with cinnamon and raisins. Actually, it is Bob’s Red Mill 10 Grain cereal, which has more grains than just oatmeal.

    Dogs And Cats Love Heat

    This is how my lap has looked ever since the cold snap hit . These little guys do a great job if keeping my legs warm, while they are snuggling in a cat pile and keeping each other warm.

    Crisis actors

    it seems like whenever we have something tragic in the news, there are always several ideas about what really happened, how it happened, and why it happened. The latest one is the shooting in Minneapolis of one of the paid rioters who had a combat handgun and several magazines, which would have...

    BREAKING: Minneapolis latest: Man shot dead by federal agents

    This is a screenshot from the video, and I had a hard time getting when you could see him with the gun really plain, but this one shows him with the weapon in his hand and it looks like he is starting to raise it to shoot the police.

    BREAKING: Minneapolis latest: Man shot dead by federal agents

    This man came to the riots with an expensive weapon and several magazines of ammunition. He was not there to peacefully protest anything, he was there to shoot and kill law enforcement. The weapon he had sells for around $1200, and it had an optic which is another $500 extra, plus 2 extra...

    Answering surveys for rewards

    I am doing a really interesting study survey right now, and it is about fitness tracker watches. They sent me two smart watches and two smart phones that the watches connect with, and a blood pressure cuff. I wear one watch on each wrist and then change partway through the study, plus take BP...

    Bad storms predicted for the Souteastern states this weekend.

    That is good that it didn’t stick to the trees, @Nancy Hart . Maybe it came down as rain or even sleet, and then froze down on the ground instead of freezing on the trees. It is warmer here today than yesterday, but the temp is steadily going down, and will be in the teens here overnight. We...

    "Meals", cooked by you.

    I just can’t make that picture into a cheese burger and fries, @Jake Smith . It looks like some kind of little pieces of toast , maybe ?

    Ask Yvonne Smith

    Yuck, NO ! Someone from here invited me to a forum they had and it was all for people who like horror films, and even the avatars were awful and creepy. I said thank you for inviting me, but this forum is not for me at all. I like films that are more of intellectual suspense, for want of a...

    BREAKING: Minneapolis latest: Man shot dead by federal agents

    These people should understand that you can’t just try to shoot or kill police officers and not expect them to shoot back. I don’t know why that is so hard for these people to understand ? If they keep trying to kill police, then we will have to send in even more police to arrest these people...

    Bad storms predicted for the Souteastern states this weekend.

    So far, no snow where we are (blue dot on the map), but lots of it all around, and over a lot of the whole US right now, plus wind chills way below zero in the northern states, even if the snow is missing them. The temperature here is hovering right around freezing, but actually getting warmer...

    Last thing you ate

    I made a pot of pinto beans in the crockpot, just in case we lose power and we need food that we can eat without having to cook it. It has been cooking since last night on medium, and is pretty much done now, and I just had a bowl of that for lunch.
