We got that 1:50AM phone call that wakes you right up; thankfully it was a couple apartments over from Runner daughter and not her building. Still, took a while for a frazzled girl and her dog to fall back asleep. And there are up to 24 families that now need a place to live, too.
Good she's safe!
Simulation results: Twins win 4-0 on Wednesday, take Thursday off. Now stand at 9-10, in third place and 4.5 games behind the Royals.
Nelson...stole a base??
I find it interesting how different the simulations are going between OOTP, MLB The Show, and Strat-O-Matic.
If you're into baseball history, David Pinto at baseballmusings.com is doing a daily review of the 1920 season.
Whoa -- George Mitterwald had a good day in history today
I laughed that Albert Belle was on that list...for having stolen 3 bases.
Is this the anniversary of the Dude's cycle that we just voted on?
I think so!
Yes.
School's out for the year round here.
IA as well.
*puts fingers in ears*
That has been my assumption since schools closed.
There's not much point in opening schools again this year if they aren't going to in the next week or two. My wife is teaching online, and my sons are going to class in their rooms.
My aunt's surgery went well, both tumors were removed successfully and she was responsive and alert after waking up. Now we wait for the pathology report.
Good news, but she will remain in our prayers.
Great news. Keep us informed.
For anyone else living near NE Minneapolis, you may want to check out Catrinas. Fabulous Mexican food and very modest prices.
We've been doing a weekly "Saturday Night Dinner at Fancy Places We Would Never Normally Visit Because of Price/Needing A Babysitter" which we order for pickup at 7:30 (so the kids have already eaten and don't realize we're sneaking in restaurant food at their bedtime).
First, we had the Martina/Cocina mashup (1 appetizer and 1 entree from each).
Last week, we had Popul Vue (I suppose it was actually Centro, but my gosh that ceviche was to die for)
Tomorrow, I'm getting the burger at Revival. I've eaten there once (and had the fried chicken), but I I'm always told the burger is spectacular, so I figure it is time to give it a shot.
Living the dream. I’m going to get Galatoires take out next week. Dinner for four for ~75 bucks plus add ons. Probably.
Galatoire's at home?
Those items on the "grab and go" menu - shrimp remoulade, turtle soup, and potatoes au gratin - oh mama!
exactly why I'm going to do it. When else A) can I afford it, and B) eat that well at home. So, done and done.
The burger is awesome. Best I've ever had!
Dido. I have eaten a lot of burgers, and Revival’s is easily the best. Their grits & biscuits are to die for too.
Happy hour tacos at Centro is something I miss dearly. It’s a two minute walk from the studio. Haven’t tried their ceviche, though.
Our friends kid is out of the hospital. Good news for sure as yesterday wasn't great for anyone related. We've had a rotating dinner night with them twice a month, and the kid requested my spicy falafel for her return home dinner. I helped my friends with the recipe, and it seems to have been a success. Hug those you love, folks - even if it's from a safe distance.
Excellent news.
Good news is good news!
So glad to hear this!
Anyone else intrigued by the idea of baking a pizza in a cast iron pan?
Campfire pizza! The brewery closest to our house does these.
I’ve done this to varied success, but when it’s good it’s great.
heh, i was eyeballing that recipe wondering to what degree i was going to half
assbake it.I have been eyeballing this recipe for quite some time. I’ve made a couple of his other pizza recipes so I think this would be pretty solid.
Seems to be in the family of Detroit-style pizza, which I love.
Almost forgot to mention this--my dad noticed a pending $1,200 deposit the other day. This seemed odd since he shouldn't have qualified for a stimulus payment. Turns out it's for my uncle who passed away in early 2018. (Because my dad took care of filing taxes for him that year.) 🙄
