🤣🤣🤣 I think he’s wearing someone else’s teeth. malibou , of course DH and I can, we both speak the King’s English, being from England. However, I have my doubts about Lesley. Everyone I work with is Scottish so this will be my fact finding mission for the weekend. Two who work with me are unable to pronounce a difference between Carol and Carl so I’m not holding out much hope. Ha, I assumed your dh must be Scottish with how crazy far north you are. Yeah, I know, weird logic. Next time we meet up I'm going to have to put you to the test lesley. 😉

Good heavens, what would we do without the internet? Apparently there are some Scottish people that can't say purple burglar alarm. Listening to them try is hilarious and makes me feel better about the fact that I can't say "regularly". So gillyp, can your dh say purple burglar alarm? How about you lesley, can you say it? How about your kids?

I had my shirt on today! My chiro asked where I got it, so he could get one for his wife.

My SoCal born and bred ds23 is finishing up at Boise State. He woke up to some weather this morning. Loads of snow over night and more expected. Ds calls us this morning to ask, What do they mean school is closed? Do I need to find my classes online? Will this count against me in my class where attendance counts? How long will it be closed? I'm not driving in this craziness, will I freeze to death if I walk to the store and back? Do I need to drag the trash cans out? Will Amazon come, I'm out of Clif Bars? Etc.
He called this evening to let us know he did walk to the store and it was no big deal. He made several snow angels, cause, you know, he's new to snow angels and the getting up part is tricky and he built his first snowman. Oh, and fun fact, turns out his hip waders were a problem for the snow angels, but very helpful when he was making the snowman (he didn't elaborate on helpful how 😁)

My husband had issue with the cast of Hamilton, he just didn't think it was realistic that so many POC were cast when you know most of the men were white white white. However, it didn't bother me at all. As a matter of fact, I love that the OG (and current) cast is so diverse. I listened to the soundtrack so I could be familiar with the music, and he hadn't. I wonder if that would have helped him. We saw Hamilton in London, and just about everyone was POC. Dh was confused. 😂

I thought of the mice that help Cinderella. I probably wouldn't mind mice in my house if they were the type that tidy up each night.

Damn, we've had one for at least 15 years, and there has been no service on it. Yikes, that's something to look forward to within 12 hours of my dh and ds taking off on a week long bike trip. There are always water problems when those two leave. As a matter of fact it was the first father/son bike trip when the old water heater packed it in and I got the tankless one.

I wouldn't worry about skipping the onions. Can you use garlic, or perhaps leeks to add an extra layer of flavour missing from the absent onion?
It does look like it comes together quickly. You could prep some of it ahead.
It sounds really good. I think I'm going to give it a try.

I lived in San Francisco right near the People's Temple right before they moved to Guyana, and was there to see how devastated people were after the 18 Nov massacre. 9 days later mayor Harvey Milk was killed. It was a tough time to be a 13-14 year old girl in a big city, with big city things happening when I came from a town of 500 in rural OR and grew up without tv.

I think I'll give this a go as well.
Damn, I hate #4 on your list almost as much as I hate the asshat that caused you to put it there, but please look into it.

I am 20 years on from stage 4 lymphoma, and yes, its treatable. I wish him the very best healthcare.
I am keeping you guys in my thoughts while you navigate this tricky situation. I will also send out vibes that your parents will step in with help.

So very sorry about your sil.
Hoping that the early diagnosis for your dh leads to an easier plan for kicking it to the curb.
