destined2bmom the label says it can be washed and dried. However it is a very coarse yarn. I would never use it in a blanket or a garment. I am only using it to make some fun Halloween throw pillows. I'm going to gift one to my sister because she wants my skull blanket so bad. She even tried to start an auction on my Facebook wall. Lol. But I'm keeping it. Here's a sample of the glow in the dark.

leannec the house looks wonderful and I bet will sell quickly. pantsonfire I'm happy for your kids getting to do swim lessons. Swim team was such a big part of our lives for many years. Wishing your kids well as they begin school. scrapmaven Glad he was okay. How does insurance handle that kind of car accident? I sometimes use fruit in my salads, except for when I have a million cherry tomatoes on the vine! I'm recovering but still limited in what I'm allowed to do. The tens unit really helps the pain. Never would have thought to use it for 2 hours at a time. Tonight I will make roasted cherry tomato puttanesca, with italian bread and fresh mozzarella, salami, basil on the side.

cadoodlebug I have no idea what Triscuts are, I assume they're like our Cruskits. The wicker furniture description sounds accurate! It's 9 o'clock Monday morning here. I took the day off to come down to my mum's house for the weekend, for her birthday. I got a text message from a customer at 7:44am, so I had to log onto my work computer to do a few things. So much for my day off!! I was pretty sure it was going to happen though, so at least I was prepared. Dinner was marinated pork fillet, crispy smashed potato, and green beans.

Marina, I'm sorry that you're still in pain. I'm not really sure how insurance will handle this. Dh and I think it's likely comprehensive. The mom offered to pay cash, but it's going to be a pricey repair and I just appreciated her offer. We'll take care of it and if she scolds her son about paying attention when he's on his bike then that's all we need from her.

Marina this is our 7th or 8th year for swim lessons. It is with our local University Hospital organization for disabled persons. It is 1:1 and the instructors have always been awesome. Both kids have come a long way in their swimming. Because we are members of the organization, it is completely free. Just like the baseball and football they have. Looking to start tennis and bowling teams too. There is also wheelchair basketball, sled hockey, and skiing offered. Before the pandemic there was adaptive pickle ball too.

lucyg they look kind of similar to Cruskits. The same sad bland crunchy cardboard! I don't really mind them when I'm dieting, with a scraping of lite cream cheese and tomato. At least the Triscuits look like they come in nice flavours. Cruskits are very bland.

The house looks fabulous, leannec ! A second house just listed on our street. Since both had opens at 10 when I came back from my walk, I grabbed DH and went to look. They are identical floor plans and couldn't be more different in finishes, renovations, staging (new listing is staged, the other is empty) and price. FWIW, I predict the staged house will sell first, even though they converted the laundry room to a banquet eating area and moved the laundry to the garage. I'm team fruit in the salad. I think Greek salad is about the only one I never add fruit (going with the tomatoes are vegetables and I don't know about olives). What a scary episode, scrapmaven . I'm so glad your neighbor wasn't more seriously injured. I hope you continue to find pain relief, Marina . I thought of jeremysgirl and sueg while at the races today. The wife of the GM for the group throwing the event sat knitting all afternoon. I was not expecting much foodwise as the last event we were at a few years ago only had a mediocre taco bar, so was thrilled to see the vegetables and salmon (while DH was thrilled with them plus the roast beef & mushrooms, chicken, cheese and buns, etc.). DH & I ate our fill, bet and lost on most races except for a thrilling place by Lemon Sushi in the 4th. Lunch was dinner for us today.

We are in Asheville and dinner is at Juicy Lucy's, thanks to a recommendation from Patter . Everything looks delish, especially after a long drive. Tonight, it's Much Ado About Nothing in the park. Woot! Yah!!! Did you like it? I am so jealous. Man my mouth is watering already. I think I may need to hop over this weekend.

I had a Juicy Lucy and it was really good, too! Thanks for the great tip!

I had a Juicy Lucy and it was really good, too! Thanks for the great tip! Oh so great to hear that. I have not had the chili or the steak yet. My hubby and girls LOVE their wings. Their milkshakes are amazing too. If you didn't get one, you will have to go back. LOL!

We were too full for the milkshakes this time. But if we have any extra time, we may go back for dessert. The wings sound great, too!
