Something About Nothing............ #14

Cheese ravioli, gone in a flash. Fresh and took longer to heat up water than cook. So tasty.

Happy Anniversary to Worfie. 27 years! Awesome.

Yeah, the Disney puzzle has yet to be boxed back up, I was wondering if little one wants to save it. Would be neat in a picture frame. At least puzzles are a break from screens, Charade.

Good luck with DH’s surgery, McK.

See our area has a June 4 now to move to yellow. Thinking Keisha May still beat me to that lower less closing of stores. Still no hair cuts or eye exams even if we do go down to that lower color. Kids still think camp is a go, so we will see. The camp is in a county to the northeast of us. Little one is still stressing about University housing in the Fall, as many seem to think the 40,000 kids that go there will be a big deterrent to full in person teaching.

MonyK, congratulations to your graduate. Yeah, I feel so sorry that those senior kids don’t get the scheduled graduation family cheering walk across the stage and parties.


Glad to hear steak on grill was rain free Schumi. Yeah, we miss that going out and being waited on, as well.

We get rain until at least the clock strikes 12 midnight, then that polar air arrives and by 4 am, temp to be around freezing. Yes, 32F. Sigh, my heater will surely be on throughout the night. At least we have clean blankets .

Keisha, your GD is such a lucky duck with having you as her Grandma. I remember little one being that gymnast, and her and the dog bouncing off the couch after a full run down the whole length of our home. Do not ask me how, but one of those gymnastics’ house fun took out a paddle of the ceiling fan. She was quite the bouncy kid. Now she just does pick up soccer with the soccer club at school. Good thing her cleats were still in good condition, and she kept her soccer bag, so other than new socks and shin guards, she was good to play. And she had fun this first year of college, and joined a group that went to the gym every day. I hope she continues both this Fall.

With that, a blanket is calling my name. Dreary out, all wet and damp. And any wet left, will be icy tomorrow morning. Good thing I have nothing scheduled, but to once again go grocery shopping, as soon much was not available on our quick trip today.

So as it is a Friday night,

Yep, that’s me. Remote and ready with blanket tossed on me.

Enjoy your Friday night, and may all the homies have have a Super Nice Mother’s Day weekend.
 
I am eating cheese curls. Yes, it was the high point of my day :)

Was asked if i wanted to head up to the newly yellow phased outlets near i-80. Um, no thankyouverymuch. Appears our county will go into same phase next Friday. Will give it a solid two weeks to keep an eye on new infection rates before I stick my head out of my burrow.

Today we are celebrating 27 years of wedded bliss. I'm just adding it to the many holidays we will really celebrate when we can go out and about. I am owed many delicious dinners! 😁
Congratulations!
Read on another board Sweet Tomatoes has closed down for good. It`s not somewhere we ever wanted to eat in, but one of my friends liked it now and again......she`ll miss it.
Oh pooh, the family loved it for a quick lunch & price was surely right. Guessing buffets in general will go the way of the dinosaur, unless staff doles out selections ala cafeteria.

Nice she still has a go at it, fun. Funny you mention the ceiling fan incident. She hit a chain pull on one in the living room when doing a backwards something or other. Thought for sure she broke one of the lighting globes with all the noise. Can’t wait until the weather breaks & i’ll Exile the workout into the back yard.
 
Snow! Ugh! Why do we have snow in May?! Thankfully it's not sticking to the ground, but it's on the cars, the deck and our front porch. And the dogs have to go out once before bed.... brrr....

Youngest dd and I watched Phantom 25th anniversary performance at Royal Albert Hall London. Both of us cried our eyes out; it's our favorite! So on a whim I looked up tix on Broadway and then immediately closed the window out. Stupid Coronavirus. We did watch Love Never Dies a few weeks ago on youtube, but we hated the storyline. The music was beautiful, but we both couldn't stand what they did to the characters. No trips into NYC for us anytime soon.

Hope everyone is safe and warm this evening!
 
Today was supposed to be middle's high school graduation day. I am struggling way more than she is-Decorated outside her door and will be picking up dinner she requested. Graduation ceremony is delayed until August - very grateful the district had put off out right cancelling and instead took the time to evaluate the situation.
congratulations to your daughter. I feel bad for all of the graduating seniors. It’s nice they she will get a ceremony even if it’s delayed. I’m not sure what our local schools are doing.

We had a ceiling fan incident several years ago. Dh was watching college football and his team scored. He shouted “Yeah!” And punched his fist into the air. He hit the fan pull which flipped up and shattered the globe. After we replaced the globe I bought a new fan pull that had a rubber football on the end. We still have that fan pull.

We saw that performance too. Phantom is my favorite musical. I couldn’t bring myself to watch Love Never Dies. I heard the plot and wondered what Andrew Lloyd Webber was thinking.

Yeah, don't watch it, it will change everything. DD and I agreed to pretend it doesn't exist. We haven't watched Phantom for a few months and it was just what we needed to erase Love Never Dies from our memory. Good thing we only watched it once! Phantom is always a regular we watch.
 
I do not know what I did wrong but had quoted your two pics and it had me roaring with laughter

yea
I’m just like the gal on the sofa

lol....me too!!!! I had no idea he was doing that for real, I thought it was just a fun meme!!! I may Google for that this weekend.....what a guy..... 😍 😍

Don`t make ravioli much here.....glad you enjoyed it! Nice and satisfying dish......yep, steaks were lovely, but like most people we are missing eating out a lot!!!

That is cold!!!! Please don't send it over to us......we have gorgeous weather here right now!!!

We are starting to loosen lockdown this Monday too.....we won`t be doing anything different for a longer tie than that, however tempting. I`m in that burrow with you too...…:rotfl:

Sweet Tomatoes never tempted us at all, but it`s a shame to hear of places closing anywhere.

One of our friends at the hotel told us about Love Never Dies....couldn't quite believe it, so we avoided seeing it.....yes, didn't understand why they did that!!!

Phantom in London was a highlight we`ll never forget.......beautful show!!!



Saturday again.......

Call us crazy if you will.....but we booked flights for May 2021 this morning.....3 weeks and already looking forward to it!! Just couldn`t resist and the price was excellent too!!! Bonus!

Sun is shining this morning, but we did some inside housework, all the bathrooms have been cleaned and kitchen, laundry and utility rooms floors alll done. Not much else needed doing apart from dusting a little.

Today, will spend a little time in the garden before the predicted rain and lightning come later. Our gardener finished staining the gazebo and it looks so good.....just needed a freshening up.

Pizza tonight and maybe some red wine to go with it......

Snow was blowing sideways when I took the pooch out first thing today. As if it couldn’t get any more weird...

Have a raccoon that has been roaming neighborhood for last few months. Starting to get very bold, coming out in the daylight...usually a hop, skip & a jump to going full blown rabid. Needed to do something. Game commission not answering the phone. Borrowed a trap, but owner had no idea how to use it. Even google didn’t produce. DH called a coworker, mountain man sort. Walked him thru it then said...‘Dem coons are good eating’ Um, no

Talk about a hard left turn from discussing the Phantom of the Opera :)

Don`t make ravioli much here....
My middle DS makes a mean, from scratch, meat ravioli. I am normally not a mint fan but he puts a miniscule amount of fresh into it that makes it pop. Family recipie, but shared freely, unlike the dead aunt’s cookies lol

Ps two snap up for iggy pop meme :)

Well...they both wear masks.

Yeah, that’s a big NOPE for me. We have people here who eat squirrel. That’s another big NOPE!

Well folks, here’s the meat situation in my local Walmart. My DD took this pic when she was out shopping on Thursday.493785


And a few funnies....

lol.....that's funny!!!

I cannot imagine mint tasting good in that....I detest mint in anything, but can`t imagine it in Italian dishes like that......but, I do trust your judgement......I can`t remember the last time I made pasta for ravioli....long time ago and probably didn't turn out the best. I`m not a great pasta maker.

Those dead aunt cookies are going to be around for a while!!!

Glad we don't have to worry about raccoons over here......foxes are about the worst......I hate all vermin though. But tame foxes can be kind of cute if they get to know you......

Gotta love Iggy!!!!

Fingers crossed Charade you get your trip sorted...….



mrose slipped in while I was posting :wave2:.......scary pictures of no meat......yep, no eating anything like that for for us either......raccoon or squirrel....all vermin!!! Yuk.......




Sitting in the sun outside, but that is a chilly breeze coming in from the sea......if you move just slightly into the breeze.....it`s cold. But the sun is so bright and warm........

Kyle has taken his car out for a quick drive around the countryside, it hasn`t moved in a month. Last filled it with petrol about 5 weeks ago. Our tank is the same......longest tank of fuel ever.

Friends are all beginning to think about hair now.......one sent me this........not sure it`ll catch on..........:rotfl:

Hey all, just popping in to let you all know I havent forgotten about you. We had a death in the family last week, a suicide and i just have kind of been in a funk. You all are so great and inviting, didnt want you to think I was being flaky. Thanks

What an awful thing for your family to deal with. Sending many hugs to you and your whole family...…:hug: We`ll still be here when you feel like posting......
