Yip…. another year older. I made it to 68.
Getting older is kinda weird really. Inside you feel pretty much the same as you did when you were younger but the body sure can’t keep up the same:) I am extraordinarily grateful to be 68.
We had a nice walk this morning and got there @ 5:10. So the annoying lady showed up at 5:43 but we were done. It was so weird. She pulled in to the parking lot and parked in the middle of almost on the park road. Honestly, I was WTF? is she doing. Not the best place to park.
We had a fun trip to Ikea but alas, the chairs were not what I wanted and then we found some we like but they were out of stock. But I bought a bunch of fun Christmas stuff, a new bath mat, candles, 2 glass jars and their brand of cotton kitchen towel that run .79 and are really the best of found except William Sonoma’s but they are 4 for $20.
Tonight my son is going to go get a pizza for dinner so no cooking.
Last night we watched another episode of ‘THe Boys”. that show is intense to say the least.
It’s fairly warm today and there’s smoke from the Santa Rosa fires. We sure could use rain.
There’s also supposed to be a high fire warning tomorrow thru Saturday.
What a joke about the debate. We didn’t watch but caught all the news this morning. tRump was an asshole. Biden did the best he could but Chris Wallace should have shut tRump down. And that whole thing with the proud Boys makes me sick. I hope we can hang on till Nov 3 and then ?
A commenter wanted to know how to freeze the potatoes. Potatoes on there own don’t freeze well but these double stuffed do. First bake way more than you think because you will scooping out the potato. So I did 15 whole potatoes. It does take a while to bake. I had them on 2 hours but they were done by 1 :45. So then let them cool and cut in half. Scoop the insides into a big bowl. I add a stick of butter and About one cup of cheddar cheese. I also add 1/2-1 cup of sour cream. I kinda eye ball it. Salt and pepper. Blend well. Then I mound it into the shell. So 1 potato half is maybe 3/4 of the potato. I ended up with 20 halves. I wrap in foil and then put in a zip lock bag and then freeze. I often take them out and heat in the microwave or I’ll just stick back in the oven and rebake. Great for nights when you don’t feel like cooking.
Happy Birthday! I also feel extraordinarily grateful to be here. As for the so-called debate, we lasted about 60 seconds. I am trying to forget about it and hope for the best. I got my ballot — there’s a boatload of propositions, so that will take some time to research.
Happy birthday! I’ve cut back on my potato consumption, but after reading your recipe may have to reconsider 🙂
Happy Birthday-hoping you have had a lovely one!
