May 19, 20206 yr Glad your home Sweetie .... You won't miss it ....take it easy ...and remember our chat .... important....❤❤❤
May 19, 20206 yr Feeling good about myself. I shaved my face last night and was finally able to get a haircut this morning. Hadn't had a haircut since this whole virus business kicked off. I had a look going that was a cross between Grizzly Adams and a mad scientist. I may not have Hollywood "leading man" good looks, but at least I look a little less like the Unabomber now.
May 19, 20206 yr Aww I would love a haircut ...I'm so jealous .....it's so over grown ....I've took to wearing a Hair band .. That and a mask ....delightful ....
May 19, 20206 yr Just got done with a phone audit of our business liability. Now, I have to gather documents together to scan and email. Such a joke since that company decided not to insure roofers anymore and dropped us 😠
May 21, 20206 yr Mesmerized by little puffs of almost salmon colored clouds quickly changing to white and blowing away. Gone now.

So far, since I fell ill last Friday my out of pocket expenses have been $18.60 in medications, $40 in parking and some food supplies that wouldn't normally be in my house. We have social health down under, for everyone. We pay an additional tax each year and it covers medical. Something's are deemed elective, cos you will live without them and there are wait lusts, but most things are covered. I'm home this morning, just having a boring black tea after a second little trip in to Hossy due to some complications, dunno maybe sending me home less than 24hrs after the first op wasn't the best way to go...anyway...all good now on the mend...feet up, very tired but I am off for an iron transfusion on Monday which should perk me up a bit.
May 24, 20206 yr "food supplies that wouldn't normally be in my house" So you did order Pizza after all. I knew it!!
May 24, 20206 yr Author Hahaha @reciprocity.... Actually tinned fruit...stewed fruit was recommended for the first 2 weeks...only one who cooks in the house so yeah nah...just got some tinned stuffs.
May 27, 20206 yr G’day Bringing the outside in. Whilst not the best at arranging I had a go and bough in the best from our late autumn garden to brighten the room.
May 28, 20206 yr Author Feeling inspired by @Cbdave so just raised the parents garden and decorated their house...
June 5, 20206 yr Thinking !!!!!.....Just now I should be in the South Of France with my buddy.......😔
June 5, 20206 yr I've rolling all the change that I've been saving. There is just to much to make it apart of my move into my new apartment. I can't believe how much I have. I definitely have to do this more often next time. I'm just over halfway done and have over $600. I not even counting the pennies...lol
June 5, 20206 yr looking online how to cook tofu. I cooked some yesterday and didnt like the consistency, felt like rubber eugh! It was extra firm too!!! dont have a tofu press, I did press it with some kitchen roll, and after many pieces of soggy kitchen roll, it still wasnt like chicken consistency! wondering should i have baked it before adding it to my dish, it did'nt say to in the recipe!! will give it one more go before deciding I' m done with it.
June 5, 20206 yr I said to hubby, shall i freeze it, or bin it! he said bin it, and thats coming from a man who will normally eat anything!
June 5, 20206 yr first of all, tofu isn't chicken. If you want chicken, eat some chicken. use it soft in soup. blend it up with stock for a protein packed gravy. take out of pkg and put in a strainer over a bowl. leave uncovered in fridge overnight. saute lightly in olive oil and garlic or butter . take out and spank a little soy sauce on it. eat. do not freeze. ever. the texture is terrible. appreciate it for what it is, a high protein hit and will accept the flavor of anything you choose. crumble it and saute it up nice and brown, hit with soy/balsamic vinegar eat. add crumbled and sauteed to chili or spaghetti sauce or a curry. crumble and saute throw in some cheese and chives and eat. nice soft like scrambled egg. but, if you want egg, eat eggs. I eat tofu a lot and have for years. I appreciate the protein hit. But, it is not meat and will never be meat. I like it sauteed in bacon fat because....well....just because. lol.
June 5, 20206 yr Thank you Sazerac. I wasn’t expecting it to taste like chicken, just have a chewier consistency. I read it can be chewy, so guess I didn’t cook it properly or for long enough. I will try draining it over night and gently frying as read that will give me a better texture. the one I bought said it didn’t need pressing, but it didn’t say to drain overnight either. I guess I just need more practice. i do eat chicken, but trying to have a few non meat dishes too.
June 6, 20206 yr One Thanksgiving, my son made Tofurkey. It was suppose to be a meatless version of turkey. That was my one and only experience with tofu.
June 6, 20206 yr Author Well now I'm craving tofu....but I'm also trying to navigate yet another new phone.
