I just borrowed Life among the Savages in my library app :)

I’m so sorry for your loss. What a relief your cousin has a happier story!

HE IS THE BEST I really hope he'll win the Stanley Cup some day because it couldn't happen for a more deserving person. How are you managing the sports drought?

Camping recipes are great because they often offer alternatives for limited ingredients. With the noodle water, you don’t necessarily need the same amount as the milk. Have enough so the cheese powder dissolves, and keep adding a little at a time with the butter until the sauce looks and tastes the way you want it. Che…

Aww, lookit the fuzzums! Your kitties look like they’re judging AND waiting for their manicure. Are they siblings?

Your beer bread looks great! I did know that beer has yeast because my ex used to drag me around a seemingly endless number of brewery tours. I’m very, very familiar with the minutia of brewing ;)

That’s a really good tip with the yeast, thanks! I also bake a lot, so I already had a small cannister, but I guess I'm going to be using it up faster than I expected. I hope you have better luck with flour on your next shopping trip!

That is the cutest cake!

It's hard not to keep from feeling that anxiety.

I’m so glad your cousin is getting better!

That’s got to be exhausting. I guess eventually people will get used to the new rules, although they’ll probably keep complaining about ridiculous things, because humans can be petty.

I have a complicated relationship with the Habs because I grew up on the east coast of Canada, but with Leafs supporting come-from-away parents. Je suis bilangue aussi. Carey Price is my fave current Hab, but there's still a place in my heart for Subban!

Bringing down the Duke sounds exactly like the kind of novel I enjoy, thanks for the suggestion. Along the same lines, I love Devil in Winter by Lisa Kleypas.

I read that pushing gently with a damp towel can help. You're right, I think my timing needs more practice.

It feels like looking towards a tsunami. I’ve been trying to keep my mind away from the things I can’t control, and reminding myself that semi obsessive hand washing is among the healthier coping strategies.

Hi everyone, I really hope you and the people close to you are well. My big accomplishment today was finally getting my bicycle rigged up in a trainer so I can continue physiotherapy at home. My sister is qurantined with me, which has its ups and downs. Right now I’m hoping she’ll wash her damn dishes so I can finish…

You're definitely not malingering. I've read accounts of people who've recovered, and there seems to be a lot of variation. All of that sucks. I know you don't want sympathy, but is it ok if I offer some empathy?

Hmmm potatoes! I loooooooove baked patatos, especially double baked with cheese, onions and peas, or with chili, or sour cream and green onions...

I tried making pitas a couple of weeks ago, but mine didn’t get nearly as lovely and puffy! Those look lovely!

I’m so sorry Nico, I wish them all good recoveries.
