Dear daughter went shopping, a lot of empty shelf spaces!
No table water crackers, no ham steak, no smoked sausage, no 1/2 turkey breast, no frozen onion rings. No sesame seed oil.
NO EGGNOG!
Fortunately the only thing that I really needed for the upcoming week's menu is the ham steak (for ham and vegetable soup) and that will probably be restocked before it's turn in the menu shows up. If not, I have a smoked sausage left, altho I would prefer to use something less fatty.
Today's menu was stir-fried marinated pork tenderloin (on sale! 3.99/lb!). For daughter, bc she can't eat crucifers, "fried rice" (really just rice and cooked mixed vegetables with sesame seed oil, tamari and sugar) and for hubby stir-fried red pepper and shredded cabbage with oil, ginger, sesame oil, tamari, a little sugar, garlic, spinach, chipotle with the stir-fried pork on top with Sriracha on that.
Not bad for a person who can't smell, OR taste, at the moment!

My lamb chops for my New Years dinner will be a bit pricey when I get them but that is okay. They are a treat anyways. I'll pick up some more brussel sprouts tomorrow when I am out and about after mah jong.

That's my understanding of that. If I am getting it wrong. Oh well. It did snow last night. Started around 9pm.

Yeah, I didn't think I would come close as the other two I was playing with were getting the better tiles. I finished up with over 5,000 points. So $4 was my winnings.
We can get as many as 12 but 6 was good for today because of the snow and Christmas.

Oh, so that can be quite a large group! Do 12 people play all together? Or do you break up into smaller groups?
Yes, a lot of people are recovering from Xmas, getting ready for tomorrow. I'm sure the snow didn't help, either.
It was pouring this AM and traffic was really light. I think for the holiday and weather-related reasons here too.
Well, have a good New Year's Eve, BRENDA! May the New Year be even better than the old!
