What are you doing today?

[hollydolly]

thanks for that reply..sort of how I felt myself but thought I would try for some feedback..thing is how to use them up. I do hate to throw food out but my stomach can't cope with too much 'rawness'.

same here, that was my problem too... in the end they all went in the bin.....

@hollydolly What she says in the video is why I work. It's my social life. Well...that and for the paycheck

what who says ?

 

[Georgiagranny]

what who says ?

The 86-year-old lady in the "happiness" video. BTW, I want her complexion. Maybe I should use some of the from the "social life" job and get a little "work" done

Ah, just had the best time with my younger granddaughter… she loves the pool, so we “swam” to give her mom a short break.

the thing is, she’s autistic and has never warmed to me much. She’s been non-verbal up until just the last couple months and today she laughed and smiled and said, “tickle me!”
Such a joy to h real interaction with her

watching stupidity in action on street in front of the house
as a woman who decided the lights and sirens on emergency vehicle were for other drivers to notice.......then tried last minute to pull over and really hit someone that was stopped for the sirens how she could not see then is a mystery.

Oh how i wish i could listen to her conversation with her insurance............................ that she was not observing the sirens until fire truck was ready to take her out so she veered right.... into cars that actually pulled over..... her car is bad but the cost to fix other will remind her for years in increased premiums ..........

you know she's never had anything done to her face at all..never. She simply puts her good skin down to Vaseline.. is all she's ever used..and only in the last 2 years since she's been making youtube videos has she been putting make-up on.. she said she never wore it before because she didn't know how to put it on, so she didn't bother.. despite having umpteen daughters and grand-daughters..

So in the shopping trip today I saw this glorious bunch of radishes and bought it.
They are large and fresh but I know I will never be able to eat them all raw so what I want to know is...
......have any of you good peeps ever roasted or fried them?
A neighbour I got talking in the elevator suggested I do that but I have never done it hence my question and possible recipes and comments...
..munching on one right now.....View attachment 232557

@Mizmo - Here are a couple of recipes for roasted radishes. I haven't tried them myself but maybe you will and let us know if they're good. Worth a shot to use 'em up.

@Mizmo .. We slice them thinly and marinate them in a little rice wine vinegar, for salad.

@hollydolly It's probably a little late in the game for me to start using makeup now. Ya think? 'Course I am five years younger than she is. Maybe there's hope.

Yes thanks I did see recipes when I googled but really wanted some feedback from anyone who might have enjoyed them.
With my hand problems I am not much in to cooking so was hoping someone else might have had good experience with them
before I start anything. Nothing worse than cooking something, not liking and and binning it.

That sound good but I don't have that vinegar and possibly my gut would kick up a fuss

You could dissolve a bit of sugar with white or cider vinegar .. but, not if you are sensitive to acidity.

 

[Patricia]

I have so much to clean, so I need to go buy cream for coffee and work through the process.

Yes acid reflux...so tonight I will just slice a couple and eat them as I normally do
.....already munched one out

 

[Mizmo]

So now for dinner....late tonight..eat with the elite sometimes
I have sliced Tuscany turkey , two radish sliced, four cherry tomatoes, small spinach roll from local deli ( little crusty rolls with spinach mix in them..yum) and a couple of Ryvita snack bread...crispy, low cal.

laters

I hold them under the faucet and clean each one. Take off the greens, and put then all in a plastic bag in the fridge.
Sometimes I poke holes in the zip lock to keep them crisp. I do that w/my iceberg lettuce too.

They last for a long time.
ETA..i have roasted them whole and they came out kind of sweet.

 

[Jackie23]

I watch a fair bit of youtube.. but they are all adults ... lol... I wouldn't have the patience with the young ones.. I love this lady.. she's 86 lives on a plot on her daughter's land with her husband.. and she's just good value to watch...

I watch that YouTuber too Holly, This is one of my favorite "old lady" YouTubers.....

Oh... never poked holes in the bag before . Will give it a shot.
Thanks and gonna forget about roasting. I like them crispy crunchy and cool

I survived PT on Monday, well sort of. My therapist was awesome, and she showed me so many innovative ways to move my shoulder without involving my wrist! Also, she is doing more than just working on my shoulder....she is giving me things to do that will help my hand, for when the cast comes off! I went home full of enthusiasm, and I continued to work on the things she showed me, determined to reach the new goals that were set!

However, I guess I over did it....and I spent the rest of the day in a lot of pain. I called my Dr's office, and got the ok to start taking Meloxicam again. So it's better today but.....

I never seem to learn my lesson, and I worked on my arm all morning. I may be sorry by this afternoon but right now I'm thrilled because I have succeeded in touching my thumb to my ring finger and even brushed my little finger once or twice!!!

Also, this really hurts, but I'm typing this with my right hand! That is a lot of results for just one session!

Tomorrow I get to go back and find out what new torture they have in store for me!

AWESOME Trila……..PT can do so much good……along with the homework they send home with you……proud of you for your ambition.
It will keep getting better. .

Thanks for the support @MickaC ....I'm determined! I fully understand that if it doesn't hurt, it's not doing me any good! The thing is, I can tolerate the pain, IF I can see some results!

It seems like such a small thing, but for me it's a huge accomplishment!

@Mizmo This summer I followed the recommendation for storing radishes. Wash and trim them, set into a plastic zip bag with dampened paper towel, row by row so each row is cradled in the paper. They lasted at least two weeks.

 

[Jules]

Busy day. Walked a little later than usual this morning and it was hot by the time I got home. One quick trip to the store in the morning and then to the mall in the afternoon. Laundry, basic house chores and prepping food for company tomorrow. Our hour of Netflix (Capitani) and then another walk after that. Lots of steps.

 

[OneEyedDiva]

I did a lot of sleeping yesterday so didn't accomplish what I'd planned. I started this day (12:00 a.m.) by getting my kitchen cleaned up. I plan to head to the Amazon locker to pick up a package then walk to the grocery store to pick up a couple of items. If I'm not too tired, I'll go to the post office and pick up my meds and another package from Lucky Vitamin. I'd like to get this all done before 10 a.m. to avoid the heat.

I'd like to do some practicing again today. I had a nice session on Sunday during which I played the most complex parts of the songs from my album. It's been awhile since I played those songs and I had to reacquaint my fingers with the runs but did better than expected. I'll do more of that today as well as work on music for my next release. I'll clean and disinfect more slippers and put them away as well as continue to purge and prepare for the shredder man.

 

[Patricia]

A few errands, company, and preparation for cleaning.
