Time to put "Survivor" on the tv

I DVR it because I hate the commercial interruptions .

Who are you rooting for ? I am rooting for Sydney who lives in Brooklyn,Tiffany who lives in LI,Danny and DeShawn.

My 17 year old granddaughter watches the show and we discuss it afterwards.

Have not made chicken or veal Marsala in years , but I love it , need to make it soon. We do order veal scaloppine  often at our favorite Italian restaurant.

 

I wish we didn't live so far away from restaurants.  That is one bad thing about living in the suburbs.  It is a big deal to go out to dinner. We haven't been out to dinner since Feb. 2020 when we were in New Orleans.

We have many restaurants in our small town and in neighboring towns,primarily Italian and Seafood.We have not been out to dinner since Feb.8,2020 with a couple who also post on CC.They primarily cruise on Princess line ships.

When we lived in NYC most of the times we ate out was in LI.

The only fish I eat are shrimp and calimari .

I think shrimp is on the kosher bad list too. 

 

When my cholesterol was high, my mom said to eat more fish. I told her I had been eating a lot more shrimp and crab. She informed me that they are very high in cholesterol. (and not fish) But they taste good.

I also DVR survivor. But we watch it while recording it and then watch it again at a later time (days later) fast forwarding thru all the commercials. 

 

No favorites yet. Too early. Now if we're talking those that need to go now. That's easy.

I spent 25 years working for a company with 99 % of the employees being Italian.We went out to Italian restaurants every Friday for lunch and many Fridays for dinner.I never had a problem with cholesterol .

Who should go in your opinion ?

I've been meaning to post this. We have had a flock of acorn woodpeckers coming to the bird feeder this year. We are not great photographers either, and they are fast.... but cool looking birds. 

 

This is what they look like in a pro photo:

I love Survivor 

 

Years  ago I used to work with Cirie before her claim

to fame on the show. 

I actually gave her a reference when she became an RN. 

 

She got the job 

 

Small world.

Unless it's totally medically unsafe for you, I would be very careful what I eat for awhile and then err on the side of deliciousness every now and then, not too often.🍤🦀

I had to give up shellfish for a long time because of Graves Disease hyperthyroidism anyway, because of the iodine. All better now, except for the damage to my eyes. Everything in moderation. I love shrimp and crab, clams, mussels. Lobster is okay. Alaskan King Crab is nature's most perfect food. IMO.

When Bucky was overseas...before he retired...I would make my favorite meal (he hated)....Chicken Livers and a side of Lima Beans.  😄 😄 

 

I'd love to give this a "heart" like. The lima beans are great...but the chicken livers? I just can't. We did buy them for the dogs tho.

Beautiful Pauline and scrumptious looking desert.   Is that a version of a cheesecake?

Thank you.

It was a white chocolate cheesecake.

Nice sunny day and 62°F.

I called at the Dermatologist this morning.

I was told I have a basal cell carcinoma on my face and put on the waiting list to get it removed.

Take care.

With covid the dermatologist said it could be 2 months+ possibly up to 6 months

It has to be done at the hospital with plastic surgeon apparently.

I have to wait for the hospital to contact me.

I’m don’t even care which ship I sail on, just want a cruise!

I first booked Harmony for March 20, then ‘21, then ‘22! I’m going to make it this time no matter what. 
I booked Allure for August because it was the longest cruise round trip out of Florida…8 measly days. 
I am so looking forward to getting this big bump in my road taken care of and being able to anticipate getting out on the ocean!

 

 

Which week in August?

[h20skibum]

It is 8 am and 59° here.  Did a 5.3 mile walk with flashlights this morning, and was treated to this sunrise. 

 

Now it is time to get cleaned up and go for our pre-travel COVID test.

Same here.  I don't get it but I see more and more places serving it. 

 

Yeah, it's kind of like the Mac and Cheese rebirth from the 60s.  White table cloth restaurants selling it as a delicacy!  😄
