MollyL
Hi there Bea. How did your jelly turn out?
7:22 am
BzznBea
My jelly looks beautiful. It is a clear, purple/rose color.
7:22 am
BzznBea
It is tart as hell.
7:23 am
jmcnrick
oh well it will be good on sandwiches with meat and cheese
7:23 am
BzznBea
Yes, I think so too. Peanut butter toast, etc...We will try some this morning with breakfast.
7:25 am
BzznBea
I still have two more quarts of the juice, but I don't know if I want to make more. The tree has lots more plums ready to pick and I thought about making jam, but I'm not sure.
7:25 am
BzznBea
I am so wishywashy these days. =)
7:29 am
BzznBea
I am disappointed that wh5.22ie is not Enabled.
7:32 am
MollyL
I was just looking at recipes for using up plums. Interesting stuff people do with them. Barbecue sauce, as a glaze for Cornish hens.
7:33 am
BzznBea
Hmm...Maybe a BBQ sauce would be good. I will give it a look. I hate to let them go to waste.
7:34 am
BzznBea
The birds don't even seem to like them. =)
7:36 am
MollyL
I hate to waste food too. We got some grapefruit as a replacement for oranges in a grocery order. We don't care for grapefruit so I juiced them and froze the juice. But I have no idea what I'm going to do with it.
7:37 am
BzznBea
Salty dogs. =)
7:37 am
BzznBea
Grapefruit martinis.
7:38 am
BzznBea
I was thinking about making plum wine.
7:38 am
MollyL
Years ago, I had a friend who drank Salty Dogs. They are too tart for me.
7:40 am
BzznBea
I love them. Don't have them often.
8:23 am

Trifioso

8:44 pm
grannyrose
watching with great sorrow the unfolding story of your great country. it is not a good picture which is being presented to the rest of the world. and that's all i am going to say except i am praying hard for every one of you, that you survive and come out of this even stronger than before.
8:44 pm
Trifioso
thank you granny. trust me, we know how we are looking to the world.
8:45 pm

8:51 pm
Trifioso
its actually quite poignant....my name is a combination of the first three letters of each of my kids names, except for the youngest - only two of hers. she and I are estranged right now, breaking my heart clean in two - and her initial are the ones left off my name today
8:51 pm
rururocks
i look like the geico caveman lately
8:51 pm
Trifioso
im sure it is a good look for you, ruru
8:52 pm
Trifioso

8:53 pm
cybernan
just read the chat -- hope everything works out well for you and your family grannyrose.
8:53 pm
grannyrose
trif, some consolation for you. after over 15 years of my eldest not speaking to me, he crossed the bridge last year, and i am now a big part of his family unit once more. just give her time and space, as hard as it is. i know you just want it sorted, but kids can be so stubborn and see any overtures from the parent as interference.
8:54 pm
grannyrose
thanx nan
8:54 pm
Trifioso
thank you granny,, I appreciate that. She is young, and very stubborn and headstrong, and thinks she knows it all. waiting is HARD, but I have little choice.
