Hey, Loving Mother, nosy question. Did you get to Free Republic from the old site Free Dominion in Canada? They seemed to be sister sites back in the earlier days. I would run there whenever Free Republic went down. Just curious.
Years ago I went to the Dominion site from Canada. Got nicely acquainted with many folk.. Not sure what happened or why I lost tract. Maybe life got in the way of virtual.
Bacon seems to be a hot topic here. It is in this household also. Each week I do at least a pound. Usually cook it all at one time.. 3/4 done. cool and refrigerete. Use it along the way during week. Like today. I am making Jenny Chicken Lentil soup in slow cooker. Calls for 1/4 c of bacon fat. okay. Will crumble a few pieces to go atop her soup with the shredded parmesan. Will use some tomorrow AM in her omelette along with onion and cheese. Will make a BLT one evening for dinner. Cooking messy foods only once appeals to me. I put the excess bacon fat atop dry cat food for the feral kitties at my home
I missed 2 transfusions this week due to being snowed in. My van was covered in snow and the condo parking lot plow guys did a great job of piling 4 feet length and 3 feet deep in front of my vehicle. with my shortness of breath and severe back issues, shoveling out was a no no.
Hey, Loving Daughter, yes I used to visit Free Dominion now and again.....but I found them through FR. They were shut down when some stupid yet typical Canadian judge decided that they could be sued if one of their posters put up something that someone found offensive. They did not enjoy the 230 protection that the tech elites down there enjoy....for now.
