Wednesday Chit Chat

Happy Wednesday Everyone! a sunny and warm start to the day. The only thing that could spoil it is if the thunderstorms predicted happen. Not much new or happening today. My allergies are driving me crazy. My eyes are all itchy and watery and I had to take an allergy pill. Hopefully it will help. Even my daughter said her eyes were itchy and she was having a hard time working on the computer. I had a nice conversation with my friend yesterday and we caught up on all the family goings on. Her husband is having a very slow recovery from his surgery and she's going stir-crazy being stuck in the house. They live in an over 55 community and are used to being very active. If I lived closer, I'd pop over and visit and help break up the monotony. Good thing I got my oven cleaned yesterday because I'm making meatloaf for dinner tonight. Haven't decided on mashed or baked potatoes as a side but if it's baked I have to remember to pierce the potatoes so they don't explode again!! I almost don't want to cook in my nice clean oven tonight

Oh, your supper sounds delicious. I want to use up the last of the roast beef leftovers, so will do something with that for supper tonight.

@Marilynda1225 I think that I will prepare some egg noodles and mix that into the leftover gravy and cube up the rest of the roast beef. I can serve warm bread with it, that will fill his tummy.

I worked in the garden this morning and my allergies also drove me crazy, in the afternoon we had a serious thunderstorm with hail stones (small), it looks like it snowed now. Your supper will be so good, I would go with mashed potatoes.

@Marilynda1225 I wear my facemask when I work in the garden, it helps a lot. It rains again today, I have so enough of rain.

I wouldn't be able to work in the garden My allergies would be worse. I'm hoping we don't get bad thunderstorms today. Some really bad ones have been moving across the country and causing a lot of damage. The weather seems to be crazy all over lately. I agree that mashed potatoes will go better with the meatloaf.

I have not thought that far. I keep getting advisories that the pollen count is unusually high for our area. Of course I am going to wash bedding and hang it on the line and bring in lots of pollen to sleep with. Lol

I know what you mean! It’s like when you mop the floor, and then tell people not to dirty it because you just mopped. I’m like, do you REALLY need something in the kitchen?!

I have to take allergy pills quite often because the smell of paint or dust makes me sneeze, and I have skin allergy easily.

I don't remember having allergies when I was younger. Lately it seems to be flaring up more often

I don't care for allergies. My eyes get itchy and my nose runs. Ugh! It is so annoying. Meatloaf sounds good. I love potatoes. Exploding potatoes are no fun.

I'm sorry your allergies are bothering you. I hope you had a wonderful supper. It's been ages since I had meatloaf. Did you make baked or mashed potatoes?

I'm going to be stuck in the house a bit when Vince comes home but I'm going to buy some crochet yarn and I have a couple of string mats I can to so I should be okay.

Sorry about your allergies. I would love baked potatoes with sour cream with the meatloaf. Have a good day.

When I do deep cleaning and arrangements around the kitchen, I don't want to cook in such a beautiful kitchen and make it messy again. Sorry about the allergies. I had some seasonal allergy in the last three days and it was annoying. I am feeling okay today.

My partner also have one of those watery and itchy eyes, and itchy runny nose. She told me it was rhinitis. Citirizine always makes it better for her.
