(shhhh, btw, got my latest test results, still in treatment free remission. I'm still my Onc's favorite! Aka, miracle patient Thank you Lord )
Morning everyone.
It's a toasty 28 degrees here this morning. It was 24 when I got up. I didn't think it was going to get that cold so I didn't dump out the water containers for the birds last night. My bad. Will have to wait for them to thaw now or hopefully they will have just a skin of ice on them.
@Wickedchicken6 your ducklettes are such pretty birds. It must be tough to watch them fly off wild and free and not know if you are going to see them again next spring. I hope you do.
Not much going on here today. My broken toe is starting to work on me. Still cannot get a proper shoe on that foot. I managed to wear a loose sneaker for DH's doctor appointment on Monday and paid for it on Tuesday. DH keeps telling me to be patient. I'm only at week one and it isn't going to start feeling better till I reach the month anniversary. I'm just getting tired of wearing my muck boots whenever I go outside. Patience is not one of my virtues, LOL.
I need to get up to the local C&R for my free turkey. I am the only one who likes it so I'll let it thaw, quarter it and refreeze it for future use. I also need to get to HyVee for a prime rib. Even though we are invited out for Thanksgiving dinner I told DH I would still cook a nice meal along with pumpkin pie for us to enjoy at home at our leisure depending on when our neighbor is planning the meal. I may even just fix it on Wednesday then we can do left overs for a while.
Good news on the Toe! One of mine is better too--I think I had a bit of a gout attack. I hope I do not get a big one!
Yep, me too! Cooked one in the pressure cooker for supper last night, now we'll have sandwiches today while I start roasting pumpkin for pies and baking my famous deercamp recipe cookies for the crew arriving tomorrow. DH is making a supply run to town this morning and is going to pick up a large one which will make four in the freezer. (BTW-one tip. We always grab at least one big bird and have our grocery store butcher cut it in half. That way we get the bargain of huge bird w/o having to cook it all at once.).
I need to check into pressure cooking a turkey!
