Updated three daily contest threads with today's code words!
Little Potato Company sent an e-mail about donating potatoes (one pound for every person that entered their last contest) to two food banks (one in Alberta and one in Wisconsin). Still no winner name for the 52 weeks of free potatoes, but by completing their short survey, the company provided a 13th potato recipe.
Verdict on the oat and lentil meat loaf-the ketchup topping saved what was otherwise a dry crumbly loaf with hardly any flavour (could not taste the herbs). Think tofu and I are parting ways...Last edited by Ciel; Thu, Dec 19th, 2019 at 01:43 PM.

Nevertheless, I ate the remaining half of the veggie loaf around 1:30am this morning, had some Dr. Pepper and did some reading before returning to bed. I had a strange dream of working at an older Metro store without training on the cash, was ringing up my own order (not at self-checkout but a regular conveyor belt checkout) with a bill over $400 because I made scanning errors (multiples) and did not know the codes to correct the errors. Had a Molly Ringwald colleague lookalike give me side-eye at learning of my plight. Then the other cashier was cashing out and I was still worrying about my plight until I woke up around 6:30am. Don't think the Dr. Pepper sent that dream my way--it must have been the tofu from dinner and early breakfast!
While watching bits of various morning shows, I heard about the tentative bus union agreement reached with the City last night-hurrah, buses are rolling today. Let's see how the voting goes.Did some light tidying up this morning, made a pot of Earl Grey tea (a mug for me and the rest to help improve the air quality after Mom's evening cooking last night), took a shower and got out of the house. Had a 20 cent bottle return.
Library friend is treating me to a free movie ticket to the new Skywalker film with her Scene points purchase! She's seeing it tomorrow and I'll see the film on Monday.
Bundled up in layers for today--it's not quite as bad temperature-wise as I had anticipated. The wool scarf definitely kept my top half toasty warm while the socks took awhile to warm the legs.
Surprise thrift store e-mail-Value Village began its 50% off Holiday (brand-new and used) sale today. It continues until next Tuesday.2021-Bring on the sunshine, sweets & online shopping.

To brighten the home, I bought two little pots of cheery cyclamen flowers on my walk home yesterday. Toted them in my PC tote. Took them out at home and fuschia flowers all drooped and the other pot had only flower still upright. Poured a little warm water on top of each pot to "revive" them (did not work), then dunked each pot into a soup bowl with 1/2 inch of warm water and left them to soak for 10min.
Rather hoping if the open blooms don't perk up, the unopened buds (about 2 per pot) will open up and be ok in the house. Should have thought of flowers earlier in the week and skirted this "deep freeze and droop" scenario.
L'Epicerie had a Yule log taste test with hospitality school students and a chef (Ricardo has a three chocolate version of a Yule log). There was a corkscrew test with three different varieties of the gadget. A $5 one and an OXO version were the best of the test group. Then TVO had a fun Generations Divided segment about the "OK, Boomer" meme featuring 4 guests representing 4 generations of Ontarians on The Agenda.2021-Bring on the sunshine, sweets & online shopping.

Questions of the day about SHOPPING BAGS:
1) Does your Loblaws-affliated store still carry/sell the 99cent PC black tote bags?
(A: my store has not had them for a couple of months but recently did get the large tote bags that sell for $1.49).
2) Have you received or been sold the Holiday paper bag at Winners/Marshalls/Homesense as depicted in their #OfflineShopping television ads?
(A: I've not shopped in those stores recently so I don't know if the bags are available.)
3) Are you tote-ready for when Sobeys stops selling one-use plastic bags on Jan. 1, 2020?
(A: yes, plus I have the reinforced bottom totes and a shopping cart. Need a large insulated bag, as my smaller one can only carry on large frozen box or 2-3 smaller frozen items)2021-Bring on the sunshine, sweets & online shopping.

Ok. Here’s my update.
I received a phone call at 11am on Tuesday. I could have my MRI in the middle of the night on Thursday or else I would likely have to wait until the end of January. I’d already been waiting since the first week in September. It’s been a really long couple of days, but I had my MRI at 2am this morning, in a city 2.5hrs away.
I managed to do this without shutting down my daycare. Dh was able to help me with that, so that I could catch a bit of sleep. I ran a fundraiser at ds’ school last night, in connection with his Christmas concert.Last edited by Angela273; Thu, Dec 19th, 2019 at 04:47 PM.

Went to RCSS redeemed $30 in points and got back $3.60 in pts with the Christie crackers offer and I had a personal offer. PM Food Basics for $1.67 crackers. I need to go over flyers tomorrow and write out a list as I forgot a few things. Nothing urgent but want to have stuff DS likes since he will be off school for 2 weeks and eating me out of house and home.

I am now off for 2 weeks. Plan is to relax, visit family and take a bunch of stuff to donation. There is some stuff just accumulating in the basement so it’s time to go. Have another long list to do today but will take a break to have lunch with a friend. We are have a few friends over tonight so must go and tidy the house.

@cath007 I think gifts of food are a great idea. At this age I do not need more stuff but totally appreciate when someone gives a consumable gift, especially one I can share. Personally I never buy cashews because I have no self control so a gift of them would be awesome.

A hole system erased all my hard work on here.
I made brownie/cookie it was delicious. I took some a person I left it on their counter I am sick of people being negative to my baking at 5am. I do this once and awhile but no they have to be rude and a-holes.
I am tired but cannot sleep grr I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I am also thinking about groceries. Since I have nothing to eat in my house. Besides 2-3 lbs of frozen ground beef. I think I am going to Walmart it’s the only thing that opens at 7am.

TGIF!! I am so ready for Christmas vacation! Going to lunch with the office girls so basically the day is done!!
I told DS I would bring him home Chinese for dinner. He will have the driveway spotless (he better lol)
Taking it easy tonight. Hope to find a good movie to watch and just relax. DS works in the morning so I will do my last min gift grab after I drop him off (LCBO for a few bottles of wine and SDM for Gift cards) Then will go home and wrap and be done!!
Oh I have to dig out the dog's gift. I forgot I have that to wrap still (bought a 4 pk of toys from Costco months ago)
