It's About Time and Freezing Eggs

 Feb. 17

steps 12,000

Danish Pastries...lol


The hit and run occurred on December 19, 2024. Finally, on February 17, 2025, the insurance company is working. A guy called, wanting to come by between 1:30 and 2:30 to see the damage on the car and write up an estimate. 
He actually showed up. He does agree with me that the car should not be making the noise it is making. That lasted about 45 minutes with me sitting on my walker with hair still dripping from being washed. It was about 40 something and a breeze. At least my hair dried quickly. Tommy said my head felt warm...lol. 
An hour later Tommy got a call from a guy wanting to come out and see if the first guy had done the estimate correctly. Tommy said he is happy with the first guy's estimate. I want to have the first guy's work approved. So, I have that to deal with.
Tommy uncovered all my bulbs he planted. They are no longer ghostly white. They are a healthy green and putting out more sprouts. These were the free bulbs.
We have done absolutely nothing today. We went to grocery store and got two half gallons of my milk white it was still cheap--$9 for two half gallons and a few other items. I always need bananas! We ate leftovers, so no prep and no cooking. Tomorrow, Tommy will find my bought bags of bulbs and plant them. He does not know it yet.
Tommy and I talked it over, and I think I will freeze a few eggs even though I have found no shortage and eggs are a bit over $5/dozen. At this point, the bird flu is not waning. I have a package of Ova Eggs that I need to locate and try. I wish I still had hens! I have frozen eggs many times, so no experimenting or learning. I freeze in Ball jars of all sizes. Are you freezing eggs?

  1. I beat each egg up, put 1 in a sandwich bag and freeze, then put all the sandwich bags in freezer bag. Have for years.

  2. Wow, if only the Danes were serious! I want them to buy Connecticut instead!! Hey Danes--over here! Buy CT!!

    Besides, California will be too hard for them to manage; they are not used to so many different cultures and mindsets. It's easy to have a nearly perfect country when everyone shares the same ancestry and thinks alike.

    I am not at the point of freezing eggs. Yet. We'll see.
    What are Ova Eggs?

    Nice to hear that your bulbs are trying to grow!

    We are having baked mac & cheese for dinner. Plus tons of steamed broccoli. DH had the nerve to complain, "What? More pasta?" I told him it was not my fault he went on an insane carb binge this past weekend. Besides, my mac & cheese is a gourmet delight compared to that awful sausage/pasta business he cooked up. Phooey!

    1. Sue,
      You are right about a 'perfect' country. And, CA is much too diverse to be perfect on those grounds.

      I have two dozen, but I envision the day I need an egg and they are not on the shelves.

      Ova Eggs is a brand of powdered eggs.

      He must have had his quota of carbs for the month in that cooking session.
      Yours does sound better. Recipe?

  3. PS: I am making mac & cheese because both my kids requested it. They love it and will take it to work for lunch as well. I will probably have salad and just a spoonful or two of the m&c...

Okay, hoping the annoyances have gone away.
