The dessert resembles a fudge jumble mix that one of the box mix manufacturers used to make. There is a layer of an Brn sugar, oats, nuts, and flour base...ten a layer of sweetened condensed milk and peanut butter, then another layer of the base that is mixed with chic chips... I am thinking the middle should have chic mixed with the sweetened milk and peanut butter chips should be mixed into the topping instead of chic chips..
I just do not want to do anything...I must come up with a plan to get out of this slump.

There are millions of online classes you could take, Carol. Like yoga.

Junie, Milkstreet has some free online cooking classes until 4/30. Or you can just take a nap Today I pulled honeysuckle off 2 fig trees. I've wanted to do that all winter but it rained every day. And started some squash seeds and basil seeds.

Thanks, for the idea 💡 Sheri. I guess I should really begin cleaning out drawers..but I like your and Tina's ideas much better. Thanks to you both. I finally got my sage seeds. I will start some next week. I hear the cold snap is leaving this area by then. I do hope the forecasters are right.I 2 of my tomato plants are looking better. I guess they like the controlled weather that my spare room affords...not to mention the light my south facing window is giving them. I just finished another book...it just came out 2 days ago...now I will be waiting again for the next book. But then 2 more books are due out next month on 2 more series I am reading. Good night 🌙 to you all. Sleep well.

Junie, my mother is in a slump as well....she is not doing well with this 'lock down'. Take care of you, try to get out in the fresh air. We are having a cold snap here again, it flurries or snows a little every day.

We had Another frost warning last night. Rod thinks that it will be the last warning for this spring...I hope he is right. Median frost date here is between April 16--30. So I think Carol is going to use hers from Illinois to begin planting my tomatoes....around or a bit before Mother's day. But yes when that time comes, I will be getting out. Supper in the slow cooker...

I just got your message..Tina...sorry.
I made sloppy joes using stew meat..that was why I used the slow cooker, so the meat would tenderize and shred enough to make the sloppy joes. I hope there is enough for supper tomorrow. I also have part of my nut roll thawing out to eat tomorrow morning with coffee.
Sleep well my friends.

Good morning. I am going to sit here until I figure out what we're having for breakfast. It may be lunch time before it's settled.

Brunch was sandwiches. It was what was easiest. And I have to use up some bread before it goes bad.

We've cooled off a lot too. I think tomorrow is to be a bit warmer maybe into the low 60's.
Junie have you been Face Timing or Zooming with your grand children. Shelley won't let anyone come near her house. She's so concerned about Colby.
Tina we had turkey sandwiches for dinner. I tried to order a pickup online, went through the entire process, when I went to pay I was told they were out of the main course and to pick something else. I gave up.
Tell me how to make sloppy joes.

I have not ordered anything, Sheri. I just do ot feel very safe doing so. You can't be sure about anything. Or maybe I'm just paranoid. Tomorrow I'll have chicken stew for lunch or dinner.

Yes, Sheri..I Skype, Zoom, Duo and Marco Polo with the kids and my family. I think I like the duo the best..with skype coming in second. It does help, but first I need something to talk to them about.
I am trying to make myself order groceries from Wal-Mart to do a curb side pick up...my neighbor said it was difficult to set up but went real smooth when she finally did get it set up.
We did a delivery from the local coffee shop...it was costly as Rod gave her a good sized tip. But but was nice to have sweets delivered.

YEs, well with the exception of Luke who came first in 2012..with the next 2 my second DD had a baby about 4 to 6 months after my oldest had her children.
...............................Luke Henry......................Micah Heidi-Cora-Nora.... Ian ................................Alexandra
But you must remember...Val had triplets..else there would just be 6...with Val having 2 children.

Afternoon all, Came in to pay a couple bills and then to visit a little... we took the car our for a ride today.. we are both having cabin fever I think... hubby more so than me.. I am used to staying in more than he is.... we just took a drive around all the subdivisions we didn't look at when we were house hunting … sure glad we bought where we did... most of the others had no yards at all and were really close together... and were mostly desert landscaping too... ours is small compared to what we had in Colo.. but we have grass and plants... and hubby put in 7 rose bushes for me .. had to leave my roses up there and it broke my heart... one was from my Mom before the memories started to go for her.. she always had roses and I planted a yellow one here for her it was her favorite... Well think I will go outside and enjoy the weather while I can , supposed to get windy tomorrow and for next few days... just hope it doesn't blow sand too... joys of living in a giant sandbox....LOL! Have a good evening all.... stay well.. Nana

I hear you, Sherri. It is hard staying in. Going out in your car was obviously the thing to do. And getting to know your neighborhood is not bad either.

Yes Nana...I too went out and planted some save seed today. Then I harvested some green onions for our supper. After supper I went for a walk around d the block. That fe!t good except it made me miss my friend I used to walk with back in Illinois. It was a good walk though. Just now on Duo I watched my Grandson open his Birthday 🎂 gifts. Technology is wonderful.

It sounds like you had a great day, Carol. And so did Henry. I'm glad for you. I think the only thing missing is cake!

Yep, you are right about the cake. They were telling me how Henry got to pick lunch and he chose Pizza from Pizza hut..and of course his Minecraft cake 🎂 complete with a happy birthday song...and all I could think was. " did you eat a piece of cake for me " ?... I see a pumpkin pie in my future........
