Just back from ortho surgeon. I can be brace free. Unless I’m in a group of people or a crowded place….
We’re in the Carolina Cabana room, where it’s 71 degrees, having some coffee.
Yesterday I used a new recipe for beef stew. It was time consuming prep but it was awesome. We have plenty leftover but now it doesn’t seem like a beef stew day. More like burgers and dogs in the grill
Between periods of the Hurricanes game last night they had a pre-taped interview with the captain of the team. He's in his 20th year in the NHL, the last 14 with the Hurricanes. The reporter asked him what his earliest memory was of being with the Hurricanes. He said "getting traded on my wedding day".

Prepping is my favorite part of cooking! I've made beef stew the same way for years.

The problem is that the younger me didn’t think there’d be an older me and now the older me has a bunch of stuff to fix because the younger me was an idiot.

Always be yourself
Unless you can be Batman
Then always be Batman
And I can't go to Costco and get a year's worth of mayo or tomato sauce at a time?

Just so you all know, it's the last day of the eyedrops in my left eye! (and yes, Mr. SPH - I have sort of mastered the pull lid down technique).
Easy Peasy!
