That dream is hilarious! Glad you are doing so well!
In my store the sous-vide stuff is in a box for some reason, and they are next to where the schwarma thighs are!

Thank you! I will check for them next time. Now I have to add to my TJ's list a whole section I forgot! - Gyro meat, Carnitas, shawarma chicken, carne and pollo asada, balsamic steak tips, buttermilk chicken and I ALWAYs have to try anything new they offer.

Good morning, everybody!
It's a beautiful Spring day here. The grass is green, the trees are starting to bud, and the tulips are coming up through the ground. Our Magnolia tree is in full bloom and looks gorgeous. Wednesday, we got the screen porch cleaned out and the cushions set on the couch so that we can sit out there. I felt like I spent the whole first six months of COVID either on the porch or working out in the garage.
The concert was fun last night. We went to RPM Italian beforehand. It was fine, but not as good as we were hoping. My stomach has been bothering me for the last 36 hours, so that surely didn't help. I'm not sure if its something that I ate, or what. I don't feel sick otherwise.
Today Marilyn needs clothes for Bermuda, so we are going to Nordstrom. Almost invariably she will not find anything that she likes.
Folks, who has done this with their significant other:
"Stay outside the dressing room because I really want you to see how this looks"
Long wait nothing. Finally they come out empty handed.
"I thought that you wanted me to see it"
"I didn't like it"
After that we are going to RH Rooftop for an early dinner. The rest of the weekend is mostly lifting and hopefully getting my car detailed.
QOTD: I have never been to ALDI, but for TJ's it is Chomps and EBB. My first two years after surgery I ate TJ's turkey meatballs with cottage cheese almost every morning for breakfast. My TJ's game could be a lot stronger.
I'm not sure about food today, we will see how I feel.

For me, there would be no point in asking Robs opinion in the dressing room. Possibly fearing for his life, he would simply say 'you look nice'.

I never ask DH for the same reason.

Grim's favorite joke is to channel my mother and say, "Is that really what you are wearing?" when I dress up for something. He's a laugh a minute :)

I would never take DH clothes shopping with me, because of what Amy said.
On the other hand I've been in your place with DD. Mom, wait out here to tell me. Then comes out empty handed. Dang it, let me see them, there is no way none of them looked good.
