Winter Notes- Monday, January 22nd. 9:18 am. 21 degrees and cloudy.


 I am thinking about a stir fry with vegetables (carrot, cabbage, noodle and onion) with the egg- I have 6 eggs in the fridge.  I had intensions of frying eggs....with jammy yolks. On Toast. Or Pancakes.

It's cold.   I have on a good sweater but I am still cold...the boiler is trying to get the house up to 64 degrees- I keep it at 60 overnight.  It's a large house....it takes time... (and money)

I haven't made breakfast yet....I sat down here and got side tracked by reading posts and sending replies etc.  I am having oatmeal for breakfast as usual...I really did hope to be making cream of wheat cereal by this time in Winter...topping it with sugar, melted butter and cinnamon. Like my grandmother made it for me when I was a child...four or five years old.  Seventy two years ago.

Well, there is still time to make it....after I hit publish.

We did watch the Football.  I had hoped the Bills would win.  I was surprised by Detroit.  But I don't think I am the only one surprised by Detroit.  Good for them...... but please get better uniforms- they always look like they are playing in blue pajamas.  The Saints are the only team really giving the game everything they have.......I enjoyed watching THAT game.

We had our usual Football Sunday Pizza.  A hold over from Football Sundays with G.  Our son decided we should keep it in the rotation...Sunday Pizza.  So we do....and it's a good thing.  We need a few more "in the rotation" meals...I hope as time goes by..we find a few more.  In the early days of co-occupancy, there was soup....and fancy rice from the little beeping rice maker......I should ask him to make fancy rice today.  For me.  And.....I have everything for a pot of soup.....so I should make some.

I have a package of ramen to add to a stir fry - actually I have several since they are packaged that way - wish I could send one your way. I've seen so many pictures of ramen. Apparently the thing is to not use the seasoning packet, or at least not all of it.

I'm confused. The Saints didn't make the playoffs this year.

We just use the ramen noodles too, way too. Back in the day they were cheap to buy now very expensive here in our area.
Hope it is the ravens and lions in superbowl.
