    Well good afternoon everyone...
    Looks like work got the better of my morning and i didn't drop in to say hello.

    Lots of snow to clear of the deck, drive way and pathways around the house.

    Have a wonderful day everyone.
    Stay warm.

    Good day fellow SC'ers! Although we didn't get as much snow as some.We got enough to make my walk nearly non-existent- six minutes!!
    Sidewalks were shovelled but that wind chill was too much for me(us roos don't like it at all!).So I tucked in my tail and hopped back inside.
    Spent some time looking for one thing and finding all sorts of other things(including some I didn't know about).But what I really wanted was buried too far away in the basement.
    Enjoy the rest of your day my friends and stay safe and warm!

    Traditional Polish Pączki (Doughnuts) came on sale, so I bought a box for myself and gave one to the Polish family across the street.

    They look and taste like regular powdered-sugar doughnuts. Does anyone know if there is any difference?

    Unbelievably tiring day. My friend's poor doggie apparently has a few teeth that are rotten. Unfortunately, her heart is not strong enough to withstand surgery of any kind. So the teeth will stay where they are. She's a feisty, happy little girl, though, and will dance her way across that Rainbow Bridge at sometime in the ,probably, not too distant future, sadly.

    Both Tootie and her got groomed today, so they look and smell, and probably feel, a lot better.

    Time for me to hit the sack, as I have to be at my BrotherB's house by 7:45 tomorrow morning.

    Been ripping up files from 2012.

    I'll get this all done ,hopefully some day soon.

    I didn't get any pancakes today😔.

    And I haven't decided to give anything up for Lent.

    Our minister played a funny game today.

    You type "I've decided to give up for Lent.... and then you type whatever comes up in your "suggestion" list above your keypad.

    For instance, I 'll go first.

    "I've decided to give up for Lent...Kent Kentucky's first thing." (Not very funny this time, but give it a try if you like.)

    The difference is, is that Pączki donuts are delicious and regular donuts are not. It's all about that filling

    Is it?? Can it be?? Yes!!!! 🐪 HUMP Day has arrived!!! 🐪

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8J5cDMrsiQ8


    yeah....your first instincts about my post are right....I'm just looking for anything to commemorate/celebrate.
    Sigh...... Good morning @GoJays and @danger_dan .....carry on with your work.

    I am happy the temps have improved a bit for the working members here, bad enough working outdoors, but working indoors when it feels as cold as it is outside is no picnic. Space heaters my arse.

    Good morning!

    Happy Fat Tuesday! Paczki day!
    The difference, @HermanH , is that unlike regular donuts, paczki are made from a rich yeast dough of butter, eggs, rather than a cake-like batter of donuts. So the fillings are wrapped in more like a brioche dough. I'm sure they're out here somewhere, but we won't be going out to find them.
    Thunder Bay really celebrates paczki with their....oh gosh I forget what they're called...I'll check with my cousin.
    PERSIANS! That's what they're called and so yummy! They have a pinkish frosting on them.

    The sun's out but it's cold out there! -22, up to -7 so Jenny's walk will be this afternoon.
    Over halfway through February! Can't wait for March and our Daughter's 44th birthday! What on earth for her birthday gift?! And dinner! Dessert! It's so much fun to plan!

    Enjoy the day, everyone! Spring is on the way!

    Sitting in Hamilton Hospital waiting to see my BrotherR 's doctor. Easy, sunny drive- sandwiched in between 2 snowy days.

    I shovelled out a small "pooping spot" for Tootie yesterday. My GOSH! That snow was at least a foot deep.

    My contribution to Valentine's Celebration was a meat, potato,onion Alfredo.sauce stew of sorts. But I cut all the potato slices to look like hearts.

    Well, I could have stayed at home in bed. They will only let 1 person go in with the patient.

    I'm hungry, as I just grabbed an Ensure as I was leaving. Arrgg!

    Have a Happy Hump day, Ash Wednesday.

    Good morning my friends! I was already able to get in a bit of a walk to help keep myself from seizing up. Was going to wait till this afternoon but this lull between storms brought out life in the neighbourhood this morning.Literally everybody and their dog,well maybe not quite everybody,so not quite literally.It is good to interact with others(from a safe distance)as we can all use a little encouragement.
    Today I may just attempt to see if I can still tape with my VCR(remember them!) Yes I do have a PVR but I believe it only works with cable and I do not have cable just my in the window aerial! which suits me just fine and gets enough stations to enable me to waste enough time.
    Last techie flashback, I remember having only a black and white TV and having to walk up to it and use a dial to change the channel!
    Whatever you find yourself up to today,stay safe and warm! Blessings friends!

    Ah, that's sounds about right. Walmart and RCSS seem to cheat with their dough, so they taste like regular doughnuts. Guess I'll have to find a more traditional bakery to taste the real deal. Thx.

    You're welcome, @HermanH...hope you find some and yes, stores cheat. A bakery, particularly family-owned, may be your best bet.

    @Skippy, yes, we used to have to walk through shag carpeting to change those 3 black and white channels we had...or was it two? Truth be told: we didn't have shag carpeting in the 60s...
    Then came coloured tv!! We got the first one in our neighbourhood so naturally all the kids watched tv at our house after school...Mom usually had fresh chocolate cake or muffins for us. Good times, huh?

    @avoncallingu, hope your BrotherR's appointment went well, and at least you had a nice sunny drive, listening to the Bridge on SiriusXM (our fav is Yacht rock which I think I tuned to as we drove together to camp...?)...have a restful afternoon!
