AKathy's What's For Dinner? 4/18

I’m sitting in the hospital lobby while my sister is in surgery. For some inexplicable reason, the other sister (the one with a TBI) who had insisted that she would stay here all. day. long. including a refusal to even go with me to get some breakfast, left almost immediately without telling me. So here I am. She has some executive function impairment. Ya think?

It’s supposed to be a long surgery, seven hours long. It’s to fix a broken vertebra. I’m leaving in an hour to go to a lunch (never did get any breakfast). My niece will be here later.

Dinner is all up in the air. I wouldn’t be surprised if it turns out to be pizza.


scrapmaven, feel better. Enjoy your getaway.

Hope all goes smoothly with your sister's surgery lucyg ! Salmon for dinner I think, it's kind of chilly out so wish I had something a little hardier, but I don't feel like stopping by the store, so salmon it will be.

I saw this and thought of using it in my craft area!  Good place to store some items and look cute!

I'm sorry. I hope it improves so you can enjoy the fun!



That is a long surgery. I'm sending my prayers everything goes well and that you get some food soon.



Now this was more than I needed to know about you. Hahaha...I'm just kidding. Hummus. Hummus does it to me. But still, I keep eating it because it is soooooo delicious.

I am having surgery on my thumb Monday. I saw the surgeon yesterday and he was like, it's gotta go as soon as possible and I was like, yep get me in before my vacation. So Monday, it is! Crazy part is that I scheduled and then? Not a single person was available to take me. I had to call my Dad. Seriously, I was like could you be at my house at noon, check in is at 12:30. Surgery is at 2 and it shouldn't take more than half hour. He was like, sure, I mean the only thing I have to do is golf this time of the year. I was like, OK then. I never call my dad for anything. He hardly ever calls me period. LOL! But he was like, yep, sign me up for the surgery. He's a tough guy and we have a weird history, but he's dependable.

I don't know what is for dinner tonight. I have to go get something.

Happy Friday Eve! I need the weekend obviously.

Work is going to be pretty slow for the next few days so I'm planning on reading, getting stuff done around the house and tackling my laundry.

Tonight, we're going to my wine club pickup and dinner. We're supposed to get some storms later so I hope they hold off until after we're home!

Hope you all have a great dsy!

Jeremy's company insisted he take the afternoon off and take me. So dad doesn't have to drive all the way up here.

scrapmaven I hope you feel well enough to go the escape room.

jeremysgirl how nice of his work to insist he goes.

Our cousin asked me to sing for a memorial service and I had to explain that I don't sing for events anymore as my voice disappears because of sinus related issues and can't play the guitar due to my wrist issues.

Tonight I may make naan pizza using the frozen naan at Trader Joe's.

I'm sorry to hear that you had a rough night and you're not feeling well, scrapmaven . I hope you'll be better by this afternoon, in time for the escape room.

lucyg you posted 7 hours ago, whilst I was still snoring away in bed. Has your sister's surgery finished yet?


We went to see a blues musician at a pub, and had dinner there first. The last two times I went to that venue, I had the most delicious gnocchi I've ever eaten. I was excited to have it again, as was my friend, to whom I had raved about it. Unfortunately it wasn't on the menu this time. Instead I had a wagyu steak with chipotle butter, chimichurri, and crispy potatoes. It was really good. 

prayers for your sister's recovery lucyg - get some sleep

Prayers that you're feeling better scrapmaven and were able to enjoy the escape room

jeremysgirl - glad you have that scheduled - prayers for all to go smoothly

dinner tonight was spiced skillet country style ribs and sauteed summer squash

I hope her surgery was successful

scrapmaven these days best to ask the front desk
