Wow. The new DG "complete" Claudio Abbado CD box set is an eye-watering 765 Euros.

We were without power for almost two hours this evening.....

I heard a loud explosion just before it happened.

I am guessing it was a meth lab exploding or someone's still blew up.

Oh my.

When we were first married I recall a loud boom and everything shaking.  It turned out to be a house
that had a gas tank explode :(

Keith's parents didn't live far from us and I remember his mother called to check if we were ok.

Well, both Margo and I enjoyed Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.

Good :)  I am sure we will be watching this.

It's on BritBox and it's in English. The main detective is the actor who plays the boss in Endeavour.

I'm out of Pepcid once again. Went to buy some on Amazon but they wouldn't get here until March and that's just stupid.

At the rate you go through this you really should keep one open bottle, and one back-up at all times.

Apparently avocado ranch dressing is a thing. I want some. Now.

Or just mix ranch dressing and an avacado ;)

WFO is now having issues with his wrists, looks like from using the walker and putting too much pressure on his wrists

Poor guy.  I know I would have that problem if I had to use a walker.  Of course my shoulder would be an issue from the beginning.

I just got a check from ASCAP, the first in a long time.

Nice. Is it enough to cover the cost of kitty litter?

I've never been to an Aldi or a Lidl, and I'd never even heard of the latter until vixmom's post.
No idea how close or far I might be to either one. I'll check.

Same here, or I have seen them while traveling but not enough to pay attention and remember them.

We didn't watch Endeavour even though my brother liked it, and the actor.

When I used sweet onion walla walla dressing on my salads, I would often mash avocado on my salad and then mix it with the dressing before tossing.

I miss my sweet dressing, but then the added sugar is why I gave it up.

Started listening to Pico Iyer read The Half Known Life: In Search of Paradise. He pronounces turquoise Tur-kwahz, the same way Angela Lansbury sings it in Dear World. Love it.

I'm up, I'm up - have been up since six-thirty, really annoying. Three and a half hours of not enough sleep on top of four hours of not enough sleep the night before.
