I would not be able to stop for a picture of the soup before tasting, that looks delicious. Well thought out meal planning throughout. Is this the same group you do the cookie thing with? Lots of talent in your group. 😊

Your work needs to be shared. As I have said before, political cartoonists are the journalists with spines.

As sad as I am over the Reiner's deaths, I wonder if this is the proverbial "straw that breaks the camel's back" that turns the tide. I can only hope.

I think it was "our chore" for many of us. When Joann's was still in business I was able to but a few yards of the fabric that inhibits tarnish just to minimize the polishing.

Speaking of pumpkin pie, I did a pumpkin pie dump cake for Thanksgiving, it got rave reviews.
I have a bunch of over ripe bananas in the freezer and have been branching out away from bread. Found this, which was a hit. This satisfied my oatmeal love.
