Sorry to say, but this site has been so depressing for a few days. I thought I'd ask an average, everyday question....to make us all feel a little more normal today.
I made Eggplant Lasagna, and my BIL and SIL are coming for dinner. They leave for Cali tomorrow to see their beautiful grand daughter.
Sorry, sometimes we just need some REGULAR conversation.......or at least THIS caregiver does.
Made with fettuccini.
All my best to your husband.
except maybe some ice cream topped with chocolate sauce.

I will probably have a chicken pie muffin too. The boys love them - making them and eating them. Take a biscuit (from a small can) and make a liner in a muffin tin, fill it with a cream of chicken soup (unsalted Campbell's is our favorite now), cooked cubed or shredded chicken and mix vegetables and spices mixture, and top with a piece of cheese. Bake @350 for 15-20 minutes and you have a kinda chicken pot pie muffin with a crisp crust. We make 24-36 muffins at a time and there are never any leftovers regardless of what side dishes accompany them.
I had given up on a lot of quick recipes made with soups because of the high sodium counts but the "unsalted" soups that brought the counts down from 1500mg or so a can to about 250mg have put a few things back on the menu. The unsalted tomato tastes a little sweet to me but the boys claim there's no difference - at least when you cook with it.
I enjoy old fashioned recipes. If there is a way to reduce the sodium by tweaking a recipe it’s a good thing.
Plus, if we have been avoiding salt, our taste buds adjust to less sodium. If we go back to salty foods they tastes overly salty.
It’s a bittersweet birthday with the sudden death of my brother. I keep wanting him to call me and wish me a happy birthday like in the years past. I know that he is with me in spirit.
My brother died shortly before his wedding anniversary. I feel so badly for my sister in law.
Pam, sounds delicious! You were ambitious this morning. I don’t have a strict schedule. Sometimes I sleep in and other times I am up early.
I hope you have a great dinner.
Almost missed it.
I hope you had a great day🥳
Btw, I’m new here. I just joined this morning. I’m glad I did. I’ve already learned so much from other people’s posts on her.
Welcome! Chicken salad is a favorite of ours too.
Bounce, I feel the same inside but my gray hair tells a different story! 🤣
