Olivia Green….Yes! Thanks again….the lamb shanks turned out WONDERFUL. 🙂 We love lamb but it’s been decades since I cooked it. DH had gotten it on significant mark-down. I browned in my heirloom cast iron dutch oven. Then put into the oven with the lid. Kinda thot that would be best. I didn’t add any water but it was fine. As happens with lamb, the meat pulled off the bone and was tender and cooked well. It was a good surprise for DH when he got home tonite. 🙂
Muffy….even if you don’t use your preps, someone in your family will find them useful some day. We all actually hope we don’t HAVE to use them, but just for rotating our supplies and having them for daily use or minor emergencies. RE: free ebook…. I checked and found I already “bought” that book some time ago. Haven’t read it yet so let us know how you like it. Some of that genre are quite harsh to read. Others…not so much…which I prefer.
I scavenge for free ebooks nearly daily. Have done so for years. I’ll never read them all but have a huge selection to fit what I want to read. I don’t get to libraries any more. It’s fun to find the free ones….scavenger hunt. 😉 …..http://pamspriderecommendations.com/……. is a source of some free daily; some inexpensive ebooks. Generally about dystopian scenarios …or how-to …or some western romance …or pioneer …or ….well, a variety. But I keep overloading my Kindle For PC on my laptop….. {roll eyes}
Yes, I’ve grabbed an occasional ebook from Bookbub too, Woodsrunner. But don’t go there regularly.
There is also the Amazon top 100 free ebooks list that changes slightly all the time. [ But the covers of some of the books are enough to make me close my eyes!] Still….I find a few good ones in my preferences if I check that every few wks. I do check the reviews and descriptions to see if it’s MY type of book. 😮
ColumbiaRiver …..shoulder incident in winter ….doesn’t sound like a good time at all. Do be careful not to slip! 🙁
Hieronyma…… Yay!! …. your dd is eating well. 🙂 As for your computer shutting down suddenly…I have a question: Did your screen turn blue suddenly…with a message about having a problem and a ‘colon’ plus ‘parenthesis’ type of sad face? If so, that’s happened on my laptop twice recently. 2nd time just tonite. And it does not restore me to pages I had open. How very weird [and tragic] that it did not retain your “saved” work!!! I’d definitely be hopping up and down UPSET over that. 🙁
So today…..I did quickly repair that annoying hole in the front of my tank top. Not repaired well enough to wear out anywhere. But will work for bed clothes. And I pounded the loosened nail back in place above the dresser drawer so it doesn’t catch on anything else. Didn’t get to the patch on knee of jeans….yet. Been reading some of Daisy’s articles…I’d gotten behind. Had some thots on an aspect of our preps….that I hadn’t realized. Had long discussion with family member re: the eventuality for our elderlies. That was a bit grim….but best to prepare ahead of time.
