Joyce how did the corn bread turn out?
Tempted to order evaporated milk from Costco.
I do keep this on hand, just remember to keep the round container in a plastic bag in the fridge. Makes great pancakes....the best!
Boy Linda talking about baking, my SIL (nothing "dear" about her) brought back starter from France that was "as told" 200 years old when we got it. Made the best bread ever. Feed it,water it, burp the lid.
I had it for about 30 years before I just let it go, the kids acted as if I offed a member of the family.
Absolutely YES!!!!!!!!!!!! to KING ARTHUR FLOUR. Couldn't get any when we moved west of the Hudson had to bring it back when we would visit Ct. That and "Cains Relish" for the man. Cains Corner USA...(in New England). Right Connie?

Well, goodness yes! Let's not mention that Democrats had anything to do with it. (heavy on the sarcasm with a big eye roll) I'm just glad it's done, and I hope people will be helped. I think of lots of people I know who are bound to be hurting without a paycheck coming in. Small businesses that are struggling to hang on and didn't have it easy even in the best of times. I don't want to have to see them closing their doors permanently. DH and I had already discussed about our rentals, and we will work with any tenants struggling right now until they are able to pay. If they're never able to pay, then that's the cost of doing business, but I think if some are struggling they will pay when they are able. No penalties, of course. But I'm sure there are plenty of landlords out there who will see things differently than DH and I do. When people are struggling they need help. But then you have those idiotic Republicans who think that people will just take advantage of being able to draw more unemployment for longer. Will someone take advantage? Possibly, but I for one would rather be taken advantage of than to think that someone was in need and I turned my back.

Ah, thanks Anne. But we are no different from most people. I believe most people are good, hardworking, trying to do the best they can for their families and their communities. It's just that the few who are not get most of the attention.

Anne I order all my King Arthur Flour & products online at their site. They are completely sold out of flours & yeast. I have some to last me for several months, I hope.
Anne, so nice you popped back in here again. :-):-)

Welcome back, Anne! So nice to see you here. You were missed, Sistah!
I know how difficult it is to say you are wrong and you made a mistake. It's been said it's easier for people to say they are sorry than to acknowledge they were wrong.
Trumpsters seem to have this,"not my president!" thing, the same way some parents have this, "not my child!" thing. Present company excluded of course. Lol.
Instead of acknowledging his bad behaviour they will say the media and the Democrats are picking on him. Treating him unfairly. They shove their fingers in their ears while shouting to those pointing out his wrong doings, "I can't hear you! I can't hear you! I can't hear you!"
They love him and they hate us. The more we shine a light on his ugly side the more they must defend him. They don't even care what he does because he can do know wrong in their eyes. Why do they believe this? Because they "believe" he was chosen by their God. God is still working on him.
Trump knows this. All con men know the weakness of their prey.
They don't see Trump the lying, cheating, mobster, monster that he is. They see their God working in mysterious and glorious ways.
Separation of church and state? Who needs that?
IMHO, of course.

Just checking in for the morning! Nothing new on the horizon. We did get our patio furniture uncovered yesterday and were able to sit out and enjoy that late yesterday afternoon plus we had coffee out there for the first time this year this morning. That was a really nice change from having it while listening to depressing news. Found out yesterday that an old friend from high school is in ICU with the virus. Her DD reports she's showing some improvement, so they are hopeful. My friend is a retired nurse.
Here's something to maybe get your day started with a smile . . .
Linda, followed your suggestion and placed an order with Schwan's. When we lived in Jackson before (over 20 years ago!) and I was teaching I used to order from them, and always liked the quality but I had completely forgotten about them until you mentioned them. Thanks!

People never disappoint, do they?
I picked up some bags of bird seed and whole corn yesterday at the feed and grain place. I complimented the owner on his new look. He has a short beard and it made him look rather dapper. Nice guy. I don't like the bear look when it looks like a guy is just too lazy to shave and has this long thick bushy unattractive fuzz ball covering half his face. Where was I?
Oh yeah, so I asked him how's business and it is very good. Almost sold out of feed. So, he calls his distributor to order more and the dirt bag tells him the price of everything has doubled. A bag of bird seed that's usually $20.00 is now $40.00, the whole corn which is usually $10.00 is now $20.00. The creep actually said the prices may even go up more if this crisis continues. He's not having trouble getting feed or grain, he's just jacking up the prices because, why not? He actually tells his client this! WTH, is wrong with people? So, he didn't place the order and told the lying cheat he will no longer do business with him.
Joyce, you are doing the right thing and deserve to be thanked for it. Thank You!
"Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal. But lay for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal."
Matthew 6:19-20
Joyce, Positive and Healing Thoughts going out to your friend in ICU.

Joyce, one more atta girl for you. I almost forgot how to laugh until I watched the video. "I gotta wash my hands." I really did LOL. Good beat. Easy to dance to. Seeing those beautiful young faces on the Fab Four made me remember innocent, fun and better times. Very funny. Thank You! I needed that. I have to go wash my hands now.
