Monday, 01/24/22 - Sunday the 30th

Monday: Ford had dermatologist appointment, a few more treatments and one biopsy. AA got her COVID booster shot. 

Ford baked his tailgate sandwich. He used to make back when we were Jaguar season ticket holders. The day began cold (31 degrees) and warmed up to about 52 degrees and sunny. Chloe wearing Mom's hand knit headband by E-E; Chloe said she wants to keep it.

Tuesday: AA woke up with a headache and went to school. By first period, she called to come home. 

After a Motrin and a long nap, a sandwich, she was ready to go back to school! She scored a 96 on her biology test, so glad she made it back to school! I made two brownie recipes (separate post).

For dinner, I made a simple chuck roast in the slow cooker, with potatoes, onions and fresh RAM carrots. 

Wednesday: Ran some errands, warmest day this week in the 50's. Took recyclables to library, our bins were full. Saw the food truck and bought lunch - it was very good! Sajima Street Fare (Japan): I had chicken teriyaki and Ford had a curry chicken with extra KaraAge chicken:

AA did some homework and played golf until the rain/sprinkles came back.

Meatless dinner of bruschetta with homemade brownies for dessert. We played a game of SORRY, and Ford won! We also watched Amy lose at Jeopardy tonight, her 40 games won streak is over!

Thursday: First, I made waffles to have for future breakfasts (copy cat Eggos). I worked (as usual), then went to post office, grabbed Mojo lunch and picked up AA from school plus walking the dog. Boy is it cold with the wind! AA played golf for two hours (Kalia, Emmet was there too), not sure how she stands it! I replicated Moon River salads, plus leftover chuck roast for dinner. A glass of wine to relax at dinnertime.

Friday: Usual day, same stuff. AA had her golf lesson (make-up from Monday as Coach Bryan isolated for five days).

We ordered Mellow Mushroom pizza, just couldn't decide what to cook for dinner!

Saturday: Another COLD day! Made a "pizza casserole" for Donna and Catherine Musselwhite (her son passed last week) and added garlic bread, a Caesar salad kit and home made mini-cheesecake with cherry preserve and a raspberry on top. 

We had our usual RH Happy Hour at Kathy's. We enjoyed many appetizers (so no dinner for us!) and was a nice visit ( We took Katie's corn dip and Fritos). We did seem a bit dull, not sure why we couldn't really get a stimulating conversation going! AA had pizza and did homework most of the day, plus reading her school book and working on the Acadia National Park puzzle.

Chris Emmons posted this photo of my Mom, from 1998 - She's the same age in this photo as my age is now, definitely young!

Sunday: Hard freeze! Cold!! NFJG at Bent Creek. Separate post.

I made mashed potatoes, cooked Ford's brined chicken along with peas for dinner. I walked Ginger, did laundry, cleaned out a cupboard, and many more miscellaneous tasks (including writing on this blog). We enjoyed corn dip and Fritos while watching the two NFL games, then dinner of chicken, mashed potatoes and pear salad (a throwback to when my Mom made it). AA had her Algebra tutor lesson, while we all faded, ready for bed!
