I saw Louisiana Story before. Equally bad print.

I'm sorry about the party, JRand. I think you should stay home and keep warm. Maybe it can be rescheduled.

A friend sent us a "vegan, gluten-free" carrot cake. I wonder what's in it?

I used to buy gluten-free pumpkin bread & other treats in Ashland, not because they were gluten-free but because they were delicious.

We have a small Soleri bell hanging outside our kitchen window that only jingles when the wind is blowing.  It’s in overdrive this morning.

Feeling better. I won’t be dancing a jig just yet, but what a difference already.

Paxlovid!

I am glad the Paxlovid is working for you.  I have already determined, unless I am very sick, the risk of Paxlovid side effects triggering issues for me is not worth the risk.

I resolved my kitchen quandary by deciding to make only a half batch of pecan snowball cookies.

How many people will be eating these?

On Wednesday I thawed butter and left it out to soften. It’s still not soft enough.

It must be cold in your place.  Try putting it in a cupboard.

How are you feeling today, Singdaw?

I am well enough to work, but would much rather be curled up in bed with a book.

Well, I suppose I should (finally) get out of bed and get ready for work.  I need to allow enough time for slippery roads.

Until later!

Just the 2 of us and they’re not Richard’s favorites.  I’ll take a few to his brother’s house on Sunday.  My half batch yielded 20, which is plenty.
