Yes, typical Mexican fare for the gathering on Friday! I'm making a fried ice cream dessert as well!

Greetings all
Sunny today but boy is it windy. Went to Scrabble and won one and lost two. I have not defeated the Shark in weeks. Some close and very high scoring games. Skipped the studio and came home for chores. DH is in crisis because there was some attempt o hack into his bank account. No damage done but he will have to open a new account. So he has been busy with his credit reports and such. he shops a lot on line so no clue where this came from. Since his social security is direct deposited he will have to deal with that. Thanks Doge.
I made a quick trip to the gallery to take some new items. Sold my Trophy Slug. Will make more.
Too bad you have to ditch the boat club Liz but so be it if you don't use it. But not like there is nothing to do there. Now I will have to see about Beautiful. Love Carol King.
DD hope you stay in touch with the teacher crowd. Bet you do. Soup all around!!
What all are you fixing for your Friday party Paula? The usual Mexican or something else?
CC so your friend wised up and apologized. You are right not to write a tome in response. Written words get so confused. Hope it does not rain on the new furniture!!
Lordy, Tesla is farting like a buffalo. Gee, could it be, I don't know, the bites of pizza that DH fed her?

Coolish and windy here too, like in Wisconsin. The big storms didn't materialize in my town, but about 40 miles south there was wind damage. The sun is out today, but the wind is too brisk to enjoy it.
I so enjoyed the musical Beautiful. Hope it was a hit with you also Liz. Carole King has a huge catalog of music.
CC, well I'll give your friend some credit for apologizing, but I still think she's someone a little off kilter. It's kind of you to hear her out.
We had a department happy hour today. After all the upheaval last year with the admins from hell, we lost a few longtime teachers. Some of us oldies who stayed get together periodically with the oldies who left. Always a good time. Several of us are taking Wegovy. Lots of soup orders :)

Cool and windy. Tried to take a walk with DH but we only made it around the block, just too chilly with the wind.
Started my Bible study prep for Thursday but still have more to do. Took Bella for her annual Vet check today. Grocery shopping done for our Dos de Mayo gathering we are having on Friday. Will hit my computer soon for more Etsy tweaking. DH has 6 days of work left!
Have a nice last day with DSD Liz! Sure looks you showed her a nice time!
Hope you got the furniture coverings on in time CC and I'm glad your neighbor offered up an apology. I hope you two can work it out!

Enjoy your day, Liz! Sounds like a nice one.
Thunderstorms are rolling around us, but none have rained yet. I'm playing chicken with the rain as I haven't put the covers on my new furniture. The weather app says no rain expected, but hard to imagine with the clouds out there! I probably ought to suck it up and do it. Better safe than sorry.
My neighbor out of the blue texted an apology on Saturday. I started writing a long reply, but realized it was an airing of grievances so I erased it and texted back that it meant a lot to me and I would like to talk. No response to that for a few days, but this morning I got a "good morning I'm walking past your house" text. I wasn't up yet, but said good morning back later. We really do need to talk though. We need new ground rules for conflict if we're to still be friends.
Okay, now it's getting dark. With 13 covers, I need to get cracking.
Take care everyone!

DS is on his way to Hawaii to work at a conference. He has never been there so is staying a few extra days to sightsee. Feeling a little jealous LOL.
Last night's dinner out with DSD at a restaurant on the water downtown was great. Beautiful view and sound of the water, plus the food was wonderful as was the service. We shared scallops and some pasta. Super tasty.
Today's plan is to take a boat out for a few hours. It be the last time from the boat club as we have given our 2 months notice to quit already. We haven't even used one since the fall since it has been too windy here.
Tonight we are out for an early meal, then we go to see Beautiful at the local theatre. Everyone has been raving about it. We were able to trade our subscription tickets so we could get 3 seats together. Originally DSD was hoping to see a long-time friend who was responsible for the lighting for the show but she has already moved onto her next show. Tomorrow DSD goes home in the late afternoon.
Time to get Justice walked as DH wants to fit in gym time before we go out in the boat. Have a toothy Tuesday!
I meant to ask: Is Orderly still providing Tirzepatide? Henry Meds stopped entirely (doesn't affect me right now as I have been working off a bulk order).

Good question on protein bars. I think they have protein powder in them and protein powder is considered highly processed. So protein drinks would also be in that category. As DD said, steak (eggs and fish too?) is probably the way to go to get unprocessed protein.
Dolphin shows are really cool. They are more frequent (or maybe more noticeable) this time of year when the water is calmer.

I googled the reading of fatty breasts on a mammogram and AI said: "Having fatty breasts on a mammogram is generally considered positive. It makes it easier to detect potential cancerous or other abnormal growths." However, "only about 10% of women have breasts that are almost entirely fatty. The other categories of breast density, such as scattered density, heterogeneously dense, and extremely dense, are more common". Interesting!
We saw the aftermath of the tornadoes in the Fall here. Metal buildings all twisted up, parts of homes missing, trees down. Scary!

LOL - having an itinerary is DH's influence but it does get more stuff done!

Reminds me of a conversation with a friend who was a food scientist at Pillsbury. DH: You need to come up with a low carb, high protein snack that tastes good. Friend: It already exists, it's steak.
