Well, well, well. Here we are on the first Friday in April. If we are lucky, this will be the real start of Spring and we can wave goodbye to Winter. As I sit here not really listening to the TV, here are the things I have thought about this week.
- I’ve noticed the last week or so when I have gotten up in the morning, that I am being serenaded by the newly returned birds. I had rather a deep conversation with one of them. I’m just not sure which bird. I will be delving into that in the future.
- I am waiting for my shipment of dog foods from Chewy. They wrote a nice email explaining that it may take a week to ten days, due to the emergency we are experiencing right now. It is exactly the reason I ordered it early. I expect others have as well.
- I have been enjoying cooking meals for Jack and me. We have been fortunate that our local shops have had beautiful produce. I have allowed myself one morning a week to suit up, with hats, gloves, and mask and head to the grocery store and buy fresh produce. God bless the truck drivers of our country!
- Lili’s ear is already so much better. Her right ear is infected, and I had to bring her into the Vet. I waited in the car and they took Lili in, examined and cleaned her ear, brought her out and the Vet talked to me all the while standing at a distance.
The ride home from the Vet was beautiful. Giving me lovely views of the mountains around me.Then I used my cell phone to call them with payment and then the Technician brought out her medication. Easiest Vet visit ever!
- Since discovering my flourless zero-point banana pancake, I realized I needed a stash of bananas.
I eat berries and yogurt (hidden under the berries) and my banana pancake almost every day. So good and it is only 4 Points for breakfast including my coffee.So I bought a bunch of bananas the other day and as they ripen to perfection, I mash the banana up, and place it in a Ziploc freezer bag and freeze. Then I can take out the banana the night before, thaw and the fridge and presto! I have my morning delight!
Stay safe, and healthy Gentle Readers and remember, stay home and the life you save may be your own or someone you love.

That breakfast looks good.
I think most of us are looking at gaining weight … the quarantine 15?
Funny how no one is saying at the moment, god bless our lawyers and bankers. If people have forgotten, it has really been reinforced on who we depend on. I didn’t know you could freeze bananas. I guess just not in their skins.
