Good morning!
Sorry no money! You might like fried green tomatoes! First off they are fried- how bad can that be, lol! They are just a little tart, but not at all bad! Have you had fried pickles? They are good too, though I am picky about the kind of pickles. My daughter and I went to a new to us Italian restaurant. It was so good! She has spaghetti and meatballs and I had a sausage, turnip green and mushroom lasagna in am alfredo type of sauce. Sounds strange,, but really good. They have great red sauce and pizza and calzones. I will have to go back! We ate at home today being good, as we have eaten out too often, I am afraid!
Interesting articles. They do make you think!! Burned house or not, I felt i was missing something. That was a small looking house on a small looking lot. The neighborhood did not look that great. $800,000? No way, even if I was rich!! Reminds me of the children's tale, "The Emperor's New Clothes". Remember that? Not going to Mexico, either.... Most definitely do not want E.Coli.....yikes....
Val, I am sorry you are having it so rough!! Please take care of yourself!! I hope you can find some time for yourself and things slow down...
Headed for bed..up late is a bad habit!! Take care all!! ..Jan
Hi Jan
I have never had fried pickles either is that a Southern thing ?
That dish You had sounds interesting, You can see what I had for a meal each of the last two days that was a new item.
I love Calzones, Pizza and Pastas with all types of sauces. And they are all High Carbohydrate and Fattening
Their is heavy rain in the forecast for Monday
What makes for the interest in the burned out house is the Exorbitant prices in that area. From my reading in that a $100,000 income may not make it possible to buy or rent lodging.
Mexico has gotten worse in the last few years...
The ecoli seems to have been been caused by Romaine Lettuce.

Good morning!
I guess fried pickles is a Southern thing. They fry everything, lol! They are good. I am just excited we have a new place to eat open up. Also that it is Italian. My dish was a little with a twist with the Turnip greens, but they were fresh and reminded me of the spinach in reg. Italian dishes. I wish pasta was not so carby, for sure!!
We are supposed to have some storms here come the afternoon. Lots of wind and rain, hopefully no tornadoes. Some of it will probably be after dark.
Air hand dryers have never been my favorite! Now I know why...I am guessing the nude man was on something and/or in serious need of mental health help. Frightening. Appreciate the follow up lettuce story. I eat a lot of Romaine. I am thankful it was not in this area. Poor people...
I have had both of those dishes you wrote up also. I though the bowl a great concept and I enjoyed them too!
What have you been listening to while walking lately? It is wonderful to see the flowers and animals in the spring! While autumn is my favorite season, Spring is a close second!!
Have a good rest of the week-end!! ...Jan0 -
I did post more humor
Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The temperature this morning was 43 degrees. There is a Breeze blowing too, The forecast possibility for rain had appeared to have fallen overnight and was mostly dry by the time I left. There is more rain in the form of showers leading to heavy rain for Monday.

Hi Jan
These days all the Calzones are baked in this area, I used to know a place that deep fried them which was tasty too, Unfortunately it is no longer there. Usually they are filled with Ricotta, Mozzarella cheeses and Sliced Ham.
I see that they had Tornadoes in parts of the South. Hopefully You do not have any in Your area no weather damage.
I have avoided the Hot Air dryers for many years, even if they were not disease vectors I believe they dry the hands.
Have You tried any of the other dishes from that company ?
I have been trying to decide if I want to hold on to one of those bowls to heat my frozen vegetables as some of them leave liquid in the cooking vessel.
Cheers
Roger
Hi Val1 -
Good Morning!
Church day. so crazy!! I did terrible today. I need to stop eating at church, lol!!
We just had about 3 inches of rain. No bad weather! Yay!
The calzones we had in Europe were baked. Fried sounds good!! They also had toppings and cheese on the top side, instead of just crust. Pretty Yummy!! 2 layers!!
Most frozen containers say not to use again, though I do not recall those having that on them.. Oh my....experiment time?? What you had was what I remember, the steak was my favorites with the Merlow. (sp).

NNot a nice looking day outside with now, I got out anyway as I had 6 pieces of Mail that needed to go. However this mornings weather forecast shows the rain gone by 2PM and warming up nicely. I think I just heard Thunder too.

Hi Jan
The Calzones sold here usually come baked with no toppings these days and a side container of Gravy to dip into. When You Say gravy to an Italian or with Italian Foods You mean a tomato based sauce AKA Spaghetti Sauce.
I suspect that a Crispy Cheese topping on that was baked on would be tasty.
What impressed me was that the two dishes I tried were tasty, low Calorie and low Carb and still tasty.
I have been using the same Jimmy Dean Plastic bowl from one of the their breakfasts for years to heat my Frozen vegetables and a couple of different NS ones for heating other foods.
Better luck at church next time. You could try eating before going.
Roger1 -
Hello!
Good idea to eat before church, and I should do dishes not go thru the line! People barely understand sauce here, let alone gravy, lol. Italian that is!! I need to stop the ethnic food for a few days, lol! My daughter and I went to Birmingham to a show, and stopped again at out little Lebanese Turkish place. Still yummy. I went over some because I ate lunch too. A few too many calories.
That is amazing you have reused a few dishes to microwave successfully. Tell me if the bowls work- as I do remember thinking it would be great to keep and reuse them!!
We are having some cold for us, nights in the 40s and mid 30's. We had a cold stiff wind today, quite blustery and hard to drive!! Thank goodness that has quit.
Some really strange stories in the batch this time. Rather scary....
Hang in there! keep doing well!! Off to bed again....Jan...0 -

USA Today Declares ‘Ebony and Ivory’ Offensive, Insufficiently Woke
The writers call the Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder song 'naïve' compared to the 'woke factions of today's cultural discourse'
....The reason why some of the songs might be considered offensive are pretty straightforward, such as Nirvana's "Rape Me." But even well-meaning songs were declared offensive, such as Live Aid's "Do They Know It’s Christmas?" USA Today acknowledges the song was written to raise money for the 1980's Ethiopian famine, but complains the group "did it with a song that declares the entire continent of Africa is bereft of water, trees or joy."
Even "Ebony and Ivory," the 1982 anti-racism collaboration recorded by Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder, was declared politically incorrect for not being "woke" enough.
"McCartney and Wonder meant well with their hyper-literal interpretation of race relations," USA Today acknowledges. "But their message of ‘people are the same, there’s good and bad in everyone, so let’s just get along' would be interpreted as hilariously naïve by the more woke factions of today's cultural discourse."
Aerosmith's "Dude (Looks Like a Lady)" is likewise declared problematic, even though the song about a feminine-looking man was written by an openly gay songwriter.

Hi Jan
IMO going through the line or even looking at it could lead to overeating
I remember hearing that years ago out west that they thought that ketchup was OK as Spaghetti Sauce, and from a different source that when they asked for Mayo on a sandwich they were given Miracle Whip and that the sandwich place insisted that it was Mayo
I need to remember to let You know how those dishes work.
Yesterdays news had video of the entire roof being lifted off of a house and blowing away in Alabama.
You may find today's links to be weird at best, Yucky and scary too.
Enjoy the day

Humor once more
Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The temperature this morning was 39 degrees. To Do list for the day is started, Charge the batteries for my heated mittens that ran out this morning , The iPod showed low battery yesterday and this morning so it needs charging too. Before I do that I need to add and delete items for iTunes, then plug it in and synchronize it. Beyond that I have nothing critical that needs doing
The Audio-book I was listening to finished while I was walking so I switched to Music which I am still listening too. I did that on purpose as when I Synchronize the iPod it means I need to remember where I was if I was in the middle of a book so it is easier to switch to music. iTunes gets updated for content when I finish my messaging later on so why not listen to more music...
The iPod also goes into a different state when the low battery warning appears, I hear it announced in my ears and on the screen. When that happens I can adjust the volume as usual with the buttons on the side, however to pause it or change content I need to hit the button center bottom that makes the screen appear then swipe the low battery warning off to pause or change what I am listening too.
I blew it yesterday, my Brother gifted me with a 1/2 pint of Rice Pudding from a place he found that opened last week. End result, No more Rice Pudding shortly in the house

Hi Jan
I thought I heard something about the deadline being extended due to a Computer System Crash at the IRS.
The way I look at the IRS and taxes is file ASAP if due a refund and File as late as possible if paying and do not file for and extension
I think that I would fly again despite the engine destroying itself. Flights have a good safety record in the US as far as fatalities. The Jets are designed to fly with the loss of an engine and still land safely and in general the containment shields on the engines do their job. I regard the so called shrapnel hitting the body of the plane as a fluke. You will have noticed how calm the Pilots voice was in the recordings they played and that was no mention of damage to the flight controls.
I found the one about the teacher that could not read to be scarier.
Have a Nice Day

Good morning!
You are right! The teacher article was unbelievable! Remembering you are still needing heated mittens is kind of strange too! My mind gets it is only April and still cold up north,but we have been experiencing Spring for so long, even with our cold spells, it seems strange. It can seem summer hot here in the sun, yet spring like in the shade. Not a bad thing!!
I had to laugh about the rice pudding. I have been wanting some for a while now, just have not got there. I do not eat it often, but love it on the few times I do! Sorry it derailed you, but knowing you, you will be right back on track!!
Monday night my daughter and I drove to Birmingham to see Teresa Caputo, T.V.'s Long Island Medium." It was an amazing experience, and hard to believe she does not have a gift. I realize these people could be planted or researched. It seems their reactions are quite genuine, and I find it hard to believe so many people could keep any "shady" part a secret if she is not gifted. The empathy and help she gives these people is worth it either way, that in itself is a gift. She sure seems genuine! Then Tuesday night we went to see Shen Yu, the chinese show I saw last year. It was still beautiful the second time, and Jenny enjoyed it as a first. We decided we are getting too old to do back to back concerts though. Just the way it worked out. I am so tired today, I feel like a Mac truck got me!!
Sad to hear about Harry Anderson. I liked him on Night Court and some other thing he did, that I can not remember now. Amazing about the asteroid! Some people's Mamas down here used catsup for spaghetti sauce often. I have used it to make the old weight watcher's pizza. Just toast with one slice cheese, catsup and Italian seasoning. Even some Chefs use it, so it is fine with me!! We always had it in top of stuffed peppers and hash, but it had to be baked with the dish, not just put on top! I love both miracle whip and mayo, though most people down here are purists with their mayo. It is hard to get them to taste a sauce , ect, made with M.W., mustard, vinegar, and some sugar. They love it, if they will just taste it...
I have to usually pay state taxes now. It seems simple to just pay one time, rather than payments. It hurts either way, lol...I usually break even on federal. Next year will be interesting with the changes....
Have a great Thursday!! Stay on track!!

I'm glad You enjoyed the shows, Good Luck recuperating quickly.
I did not use the heated mittens today, I did use the insulated gloves, Two reasons. It was not that cold outside and I did not want water getting into the electronics of the gloves that control the three heat settings.
I tend to be skeptical regarding mediums, I think they that the reading is dependent on reading the persons body language TBH. I wonder how they would do with a person that has had the training on how to beat a Lie Detector ?Sad to hear about Harry Anderson. I liked him on Night Court and some other thing he did, that I can not remember now. Amazing about the asteroid! Some people's Mamas down here used catsup for spaghetti sauce often. I have used it to make the old weight watcher's pizza. Just toast with one slice cheese, catsup and Italian seasoning. Even some Chefs use it, so it is fine with me!! We always had it in top of stuffed peppers and hash, but it had to be baked with the dish, not just put on top! I love both miracle whip and mayo, though most people down here are purists with their mayo. It is hard to get them to taste a sauce , ect, made with M.W., mustard, vinegar, and some sugar. They love it, if they will just taste it...
How well did it work with the WW Pizza ? I have some thin English Muffins in the freezer and Shredded Mozzarella in the refrigerator that I could use as a Mid Morning snack. I'm thinking toast the muffin half in the toaster to crisp & defrost it then sauce it, add the cheese and Microwave to melt the cheese.
Mayo and MW have somewhat different tastes and both have their uses. Other spreads I have in the Refrigerator are Thousand Island and Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce. All of those work well on the bread with chicken as the meat. The BBQ Sauce does need the Chicken to be heated IMO.
The trick is to not tell them that MW is used
I am a old school type, Tomato Gravy for a Italian pasta dish should be simmering on the stove with assorted meats in it for a long time. The meats can include Beef or Pork Neck-bones, Italian Sausage, Ground Beef, Meatballs, Pork Skin Braciole stuffed with various ingredients. Some use cheese etc. and others use Sliced garlic.

Cotenne, or pork skin braciole, is a traditional Southern Italian addition to tomato ragu. A rolled-up pig skin is browned and simmered in sauceI have to usually pay state taxes now. It seems simple to just pay one time, rather than payments. It hurts either way, lol...I usually break even on federal. Next year will be interesting with the changes....
Have a great Thursday!! Stay on track!!
Miss you, Val!! ...Jan...
Makes sense to me

Just a quick note! Your talk of real italian gravy makes me hungry for some!! We had pork neck bones in our sauce all the time. I was up at 5:30 to take May to see the surgeon. She has indeed torn a tendon and is scheduled for surgery next Tuesday.... She has not forgiven me yet. Instead of 30 min. to wake for sedation it took her 3.5 hours. A long day.... The WW pizza is not bad, for what it is. You lost weight!! Take care.... Jan0

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The temperature this morning was 36 degrees. There is a chilly breeze blowing too. As is my habit I turned on the Bedroom TV to check the temperatures and weather forecast and had a blank screen. To see if it were the TV or the Cable news channel I checked on the Living Room TV and found a frozen screen that appears to have happened while after 2AM. It was Out when I left to go walking and as of 6:45AM when I checked is back.
We have four 60 watt equivalent LED bulbs to try the next time a CFL burns out. They were on sale at the ShopRite recently for $0.69 cents per.

Hi Jan
To make a WW Pizza I might look at a jar of pizza sauce in the Grocery store, who knows it might be better in terms of calories etc.
I sort of assumed that neck bones was a local thing, Oops.
I'm sorry to hear about that needed surgery. Hopefully all goes well, best wishes regarding that.
Yesterday was a Dark and dreary day until well into the afternoon when a little sun and blue sky appeared. Until them it was on and off rain for most of the day, not a heavy rain, just enough to be annoying.
Have a Nice Day
Roger
