little sister, I feel I’m in the same boat as you. Don’t know what it is exactly but I feel that “IT’S” coming soon. Don’t what “IT” is but I feel the need to really push to get ready.My hubby thinks I’m getting paranoid but I don’t know. Most of my ‘premonitions” have come true over the years, so I don’t ignore them. We went to the Home Show this afternoon, primarily because we need to replace the windows on the house. Much to my surprise, there was 2 companies there that do Security film for windows. We’re going to have them do quotes once the new windows are in.
Did you know you can freeze the olive oil? From what information I have been able to find, the olive oil keeps for about 5 years in the freezer. I haven’t tried it, should put a small bottle in the freezer and see what happens. I have a few bottles in the “lower” pantry that got shoved back and are no longer good for food. DH wanted to toss them but I plan on using them for the oil lamps. According to what I was told I CAN use it for lamp oil if it’s rancid but not to use canola or vegetable oil either fresh or rancid due to the carcinogens they give off when burned. Supposedly olive oil doesn’t give them off. AND when we got home this afternoon I started the roast(cooked like prime roast) after it was time and I went to check temp, meat was still raw in the middle. Thought it was the thermometer but we believe its the heating unit in oven We tried to cook it using the convection button on the stove. Seemed to do it but DH went and got Chinese for dinner tonight just in case, he was hungry LOL. Man I was so looking forward to roast beef, mashed pots and green beans for dinner tonight. DH believes it is both the thermometer AND the oven. So it’s off to the store tomorrow for an oven thermometer, and if things come in threes, wonder what else is going to go wonky.
