I keep hoping for something "natural" like a stroke but his VP is pretty dangerous... so continued whatever sort of health condition he is in. But perhaps more vacations in Florida, more golf.....where he moves the ball when it doesn't land where he wants it to.......
My book reading has slowed to a crawl......this is the third day for When Grumpy Met Sunshine, I'll finish it today at some point in time....I've read it before but oddly enough, it's seems quite different this time. I often think it's really Me that is different and the book remains the same. I'm very tired.
I had a nice hot shower this morning and washed my hair twice...felt it needed that. Clean clothing... but still the same aches and pains of old age....can't wash them away.
Son reported in yesterday (he came downstairs) and said he'd found that an American CAN move to France and live there IF that person has money to live on (needs to prove it) and will not need a job, can pay as he goes.. He has money and won't need a job. And the food is fantastic. So...he now has a Future Plan. Maybe I can renew my passport and visa and finally see the Art Museums- on a future visit.
My Master Gardener Partner has emailed...she had been going to a potluck (shared her food item in pictures and words). but this morning I see another email...Car Trouble.....Her car has 220K on it and is now at the garage....she is hoping it can be repaired. Buying a new one would be a real economic stretch. It's one of those fancy cars. Pri...something. Very quiet. Gas and electric power. Were very popular before Elon's Teslas. The ordering of parts takes the longest amount of time.
I have a recipe card here for Rhubarb Crumb Bars. I have everything needed....but after reading the recipe I looked at all the comments.....whoa...too much butter in the crust etc etc etc. Problems with just about every level of this recipe. See, if this was my column, my recipe on the internet- I would FIX it. Not have the recipe everyone is correcting still there at the top....... as I read it- making the Crumb Bars as written- you'd have an inedible soggy mess. Even the baking pan size is judged to be "wrong".
I wanted to make the bars- I have rhubarb and I have everything else...it's like a small Lottery Win. But now I doubt the recipe is correct...I don't want to go thru all the steps and then have something awful.
First off rhubarb, lemon juice, sugar and cornstarch...simmer over medium high heat. There's just lemon juice (no amount noted) to simmer.....in the 400 comments- "use less lemon juice". Wow.
