Thanks Beer!

You should make thousands more and sell them on Etsy or something maybe, QVC! I'd rather buy one of them than a mail order pumpkin pie lol!
A lot of people around here making dough $$ off printing labels and putting them on cups, glasses, shirts, banners, Christmas ornaments etc..
Girl I work with been doing it last couple yrs. Quite a few others also have got into it.
Our oldest DD, who has a great job but has been doing it for a yr or so making couple hundred a week on sales. Week after week for awhile now.
You could have a pretty good side gig right there, cause what they are doing isn't art, can actually do it yourself online.
Those pumpkins are art and unique, I ain't seen nothing like it.

Anyone here besides me had covid yet?
I may have missed it if someone has.
I ended up completely losing sense of smell like I can't even smell straight bleach/chlorine. Pretty sure I still have taste but think it is compromised without ability to smell. Everything smells like air...
Sucks cause roasted up a Boston Marrow squash today, gave one to DD#1 when she stopped. Had to try one myself, hoping for butternut type or real good pie pumpkin type.
My review on Boston Marrow Squash;
IDK!!!! Texture seems pretty good but ain't got a clue on taste!!! I think maybe I taste the butter ..
Anyway give it this review, remember discussing winter squash couple yrs ago? hard to cut open. The Boston Marrow squash easy, slice open split way easier than even a pumpkin.
Thin skin and meat ain't too thick or hard. I plan on skinning the next one I roast just cause skin so thin like a zucchini thin it made it a pain in the butt to scrape the meat out.
I haven't weighed the bigger one yet, surpassed my scales 13lb limit lol but the others and one gave dd and one I cooked 8-9lbs

Most of us had it.

Spouse ... sense of smell was dulled, but not for long.

I never lost sense of taste or smell.

I don't think the 2 kids that got it had issues.

We (Dh, me, and Dd #1) lost some smell, but mostly lost taste. It comes back. Just keep breathing, and eating. Energy takes awhile to return too.

No covid here our wanna be mayor idiot got it gave it to the 2 gals that work for him they are slowly getting back to life

The house is dusted, vacuumed, and mopped. The kitchen now looks like a mini cyclone hit it, but it's going to have to wait until morning for me to clean it. The food has been put up, and the rest will wait. I'm pooped, and not going to tackle it now.
