Saturday Menu and Activities

Good Morning Menuers !

Hope your flight was good and you?re all enjoying the convention and meeting each other in person!

I?m cleaning the kitchen today and cobwebs from every ceiling in the house ( including basement blecch ) . This is the hardest room to complete by far thanks to the extensive animal damage ( including the bottom cupboards ) and frozen pipes which also caused several cracks in the granite and mold ?. Yikes .

This room also contains the pantry and laundry room so there are moldy and peed upon clothes and linens everywhere ( chewed and ripped also ) . I could have called Servpro but a lot of this stuff I can wash off or launder - which I would have had to rebuy as they literally throw out everything. Once I get the steam cleaner and circular polisher to work I think the place will look a thousand times better but I?m not there yet, sadly . The room also contained my office and so many important papers have been devastated which also need to be copied and replaced yikes . So though I?m DOING the work there?s ever more to be done

early breakfast at the crack of dawn - bites of leftover filet mignon from last night , ff bear side sauce , sweet potato air fries .

B - boat tenant brought us a German small cake as a surprise so I had a small piece of that and ff sf latte

s- grapes , ice cream

l- shrimp w ****tail or 1/2 lobster roll or Italian seafood salad or all of the above , spinach salad w grape leaves fat free feta cheese pickled onions scallions and fresh tomatoes

d - leftover pasta and chicken Marsala

midnight snack - popcorn and raisins , herbal tea latte sf w fat free whipped cream

I didn?t stop at my usual food haunts on the trip out surpringly - a good sign . I did break down in ALDIs where I go to buy cat food and ended with a bag of ? freshies? like scallions and fruit . Not so bad and I?m definitely seeing an improvement on the food hoarding.

There is a trade off of course - I?ve been clothes shopping a lot . I plan to finally get my hair trimmed today too after a way too long hiatus . Thinking of a retro seventies do like Farrah Fawcett - the thing is it?s probably JUST wishful thinking because I?ve never in my life wielded a curling iron or pretty much even a blow dryer except for auditions and ? important? occasions . My hair is something of a layered mess right now thanks to Covid so I?ll probably end up with long seventies boys? do ? not the worst outcome possible . I want the beautiful long hair I wrecked during Covid back ? no such luck .
