Happy Belated Blogoversary to Me!

August 12th, 2020 at 07:43 pm

I cannot believe it's been that long, but apparently yesterday was my lucky 13th Blogoversary. What? No card? No flowers?

Because I'm pretty sentimental I thought about all the folks who have traveled through this blogosphere like that lady from Atlanta, Retire at 50, the guy who was living in his car for a while, and another really funny one. Someone help me remember some of the others!

I've been determined not to go to the grocery store for another few days so we've had some slightly unusual meals. Last night's burgers were accompanied by kohlrabi fries. I just need to figure out what to do with the huge cabbage in the fridge. Maybe I'll try that eggroll in a bowl again. Or resort to store cupboard enchiladas for dinner.

In other mundane but satisfying news, my DD voted for the first time yesterday. I voted absentee, but am a dedicated voter, and hope she emulates that behavior. She was proud of her "I voted" sticker. And I cashed $35 out of SB and MyPoints to add to my big goal

I also did a usage test on some crackers, sampling three kinds they sent. For that I gained a $10 Amazon card that went for a wallet for DD. No other news--hard at work prepping for classes!

    Happy Blogoversary!

    Cabbage: homemade coleslaw ( I never was a coleslaw fan till I had home made.)
    Stuffed cabbage rolls, ( maybe too wintry)
    Hunt's, the brand, and also Ellie Krieger, recipe author, used to have some nice recipes for vegetable soups that included cabbage.

    I looked up every single person on my absentee ballot, so as to be an informed voter. I'm not sure I've ever been so conscientious before.

    Happy Blogoversary! I Remember Retire at 50, she could work a grocery/coupon deal like no other. Nice cash out amount! I'm still waiting to get those crackers (I'm in that same usage survey), the mail here has been a mess lately.

    I'm thinking back to the lady who was with or married to someone she called Baseball Boy, who was a minor league baseball player. Also, there was the woman who lived in New York, Brooklyn maybe, who then moved to DC. Seems like she popped in again a while ago and said they were going to move to Europe. I would also love if some of the bloggers who aren't around any more came back to say hey and let us know how they're doing.

    Rune-I think Banker Gurl used to be married to Baseball boy? Am I remembering that right? ImaSaver is who I was thinking of. Thanks for reminding me, CB! And all those others too. Yes, the NY blogger did check in a while back; I remember her fabulous trip to Asia. What a funny little community we are!
