  1. You can use squash, I'd suggest butternut or pumpkin or banana instead.
  2. I made a double batch of these for dinner. The first batch is heading to the freezer. The rest we ate, along with some nice Olymel sausage that doesn't have that usual pork sausage flavour, which I don't like. We had real maple syrup. https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/katie-lee/quick-oats-sweet-potato-pancakes-2718081 My pancake craving has ended...for now!!!
  3. That made me shudder... probably why it works. This isn't that exciting but i've found that telling people helps. In my case it's usually Michael or Dan as they are closest to me. i've been able to find my way out of the rabbit hole. Also, i'm sort of (finally) learning that some subjects i shouldn't talk about. If i can feel something starting, i'll excuse myself from the conversation. That works too.
  4. i do as well, or worry about things or make up scenarios that are never right. So, how do we stop these less than helpful processes? Or at least snap ourselves out of them?
  5. Sounds like Groundhog day. Maybe we all need to do a little something to break the habit.
  6. Happy Monday. It may be only me, but we have the same weekly days. Like over and over again, it's very repetitive or seems like it is to me. I hope that you all have a great week!
  7. Crummy weather! But, mmmm dinner. Enjoy!!
  8. Stress can steal the joy from life. Those of us who can enjoy a simple life and don't have to worry about these things very much, are very lucky as you say. Finding beauty in the small things and being grateful makes us more mindful. Thank you for this reminder. Have a lovely day.
  9. Happy Saturday ... One is not enough Waiting on set ... Have a good and fun/busy/relaxing day ...
  10. Happy Friday, to those who celebrate. Also.... Looks like it's a good thing i reminded everyone... Have a good Friday!
  11. Really? That's really weird. Sorry, you're all unwell. Hope you feel better soon.
  12. Here's today's ... sadly i have a burning desire only to do nothing... Lol Happy Thursday!
  13. haha, you can have words with them..lol Not sure what good it would do.
  14. What if the next guests arrive to move into that space? That's not okay, you should inquire as to whether that's an option for you, not just assume you can stay longer.

    You're so right. i crave silence. You are right that noise is everywhere and all the time. i get up early, there are birds at that time, but to wish them to be quiet would be simply foolish. Thank you, @pvtguy for reading and for your comments.

    Thank you, Parker. I'd never heard of the Monostich before and was surprised how challenging it was. I'm sure you'll give it a whirl! I'm also happy that you liked the sonnets. They are a struggle for me, but I'm kind of pleased with them both. I feel the same way. Thank you for your support. Doing this isn't easy, but I'm lucky I have more time now, so I think, in the end, the poetry was better.
  21. We bought a bunch of sweet potatoes last week, when they were $0.77 a lb... i steamed them and then froze them. I like to make pancakes with them and some oats.. and eggs. I'll be eating some this week, i think.
  22. Gosh that was fun... i went in, Michael popped into the grocery store nearby and i was finished and waiting before He got back. He only bought a loaf of bread (so i don't have to rush to make some..but i probably will on Saturday). The grocery store is in the same mall. The freezing is coming and it's starting to be a bit painful... however, i'll live. i hope i don't have to do this anymore...
  23. Cheesy scrambled eggs. Stewed fruit (apples and pears poached until soft in water, cinnamon and a little splenda brown sugar). Mashed veg like sweet potato, frenched green beans, mashed carrot. Oatmeal or cream of wheat. Applesauce, jello, yogurt. Soft proteins are eggs, fish, ground meats.
  24. I enjoyed each of them. Favs are the Sea Song and To The Green. and of course, thanks for adding the extra day to the month of April!
  25. This is excellent. It has been a pleasure getting to know @lawfulneutralmage and working with him. If you haven't yet read Special Circumstances, you should. It is a wonderful story.
