It was a bit crazy yesterday. I was in a toot to get the ingredients for the terrine and we went out to buy them, went to the money exchange, picked up coffee beans, went to the optician to have him adjust my glasses, bought reading glasses, bought bread and produce, and came home with zaatar manoosh for lunch. I hustled to finish making the layered three bean terrine before electricity cut and shortly after the cut my husband came down to let me know of the pagers exploding. The American Women lit up WhatsApp checking in and the rest of the day was pretty much taken up watching or listening to news.
I had a cousin contact me worried about my safety SO ended up sending messages to family then posting on Facebook so people would know that we are safe. I am not sure if we will play cards in Tripoli this week...waiting to hear how today goes.
Oh...I did not get into the crunch things or nuts I bought to make peanut butter...I counted points and quit early. No wine in the house to tempt me so...stayed OP and the scale was down a bit more this morning.
Today will be a quiet day at home. I will finish a book and write the review then...start reading another book. I will plate the terrine and take a photo of it to send to those that were going to attend the potluck and no doubt get tired of the dish long before it is gone  Hope you all slept well last night and woke refreshed in the morning. |

Cathy, I heard of more explosions today as the walky talkies were also detonated. Wow.. I hope everything works out soon and there is not another escalation in Lebanon.
Your recipe looked great..
Bev, I hope you have a great day!
I have some chores to do in the house, straightening up a bit and maybe will start a book.
It is supposed to rain here. We’ll see how much we get.
Stay safe , my friends!!

Good morning friends,
Cathy, I saw the news last night, so very scary! Thank goodness your area is safe, praying that it stays that way. Why do we have to have wars anyway? They seldom accomplish anything in the end, other than just getting a lot of people killed & maimed.
Lynn, you must be counting the days until your trip!! How exciting.
I had a good day yesterday. DD needed to go into Nashville to get the oil changed in her car. (She had a free oil change from the dealership that she bought the car from). They got to her car right away & we only waited about 30 min. Then we went to a small German restaurant & had a bowl of soup for lunch. I had the chicken & wild rice & it was very tasty. Funny, I never thought of chicken & rice soup as being a German thing, but whatever. Then we stopped at Trader Joe's. We each picked up a couple of things & then headed home. I felt really lazy, as the cleaning girls had come in while I was gone & cleaned my house. It smelled so nice & clean when we came in.
Today, I am doing some straightening up & washing my bedding. I just finished cleaning out a small chest of drawers that DH kept all his instructions & warranties for every thing that he has ever owned! Bless his heart, he never threw anything away. I have bagged that all up & have it ready for the trash. I thought about throwing out the entire chest, but it was so heavy that I couldn't lift it. I also came across a box of old paycheck stubs. Some were his & some were mine. I shredded all of them as they had our ss #'s on them.
Have a great day my friends.
