Stella's Place 
Maybe an inch or 2 by Friday nite. Having a mild Winter temps so far could be disastrous in the Spring. Hope our blooms in Spring don’t get frozen! I’ve seen it before that the huge bloom gets frozen and there goes the harvest. Everybody talks about the weather, but no one does anything about it!

Mornin’ Pa. 22 degrees here this morning, and we expect a couple of inches of snow tonight. I think this is just the “January thaw” in February, and I worry with you about a late frost after the blooms are set.

That sounds dire, Pa. Being unfamiliar with the generalized term ‘blooms’ I’m wondering if this refers to flowers and ultimately the birds, bees and pollination?

This one is the BINGO! The pink and the white blossoms come on in April and early May and if a heavy frost hits, kiss that harvest that year good bye.

If the flowers on my blueberries freeze at the wrong time then I will get no berries. I can cover the plants with lights and plastic overnight but never had to yet.

Mornin’ Pa, everyone. Just another pleasant day here. I was a little disappointed in the movie DOG yesterday. I am not necessarily a Chattum Tatum, or whatever his name is, fan. He has a deep voice and the sound had a lot of base in it and I had trouble understanding what he said. Sometimes it was supposed to be something funny, but I couldn’t figure out what it was.
I usually have FOX and FRIENDS on in the morning, but all they are talking about is War in Ukraine, how it will affect the economy, gas prices, etc. Everything goes back to it. So I turned it off.
Well, hope you all stay warm and safe from the new storm coming across the country.

Mornin’ mom! It particularly irritates me that Biden is trying to blame everything on Putin. How could anybody believe that? Putin isn’t the one who shut off U.S. oil production – Biden did. Putin isn’t the one who caused our inflation – Biden and Congress did.

I agree. Every time something goes wrong the Dems find someone else to blame it on, usually Trump.

It’s all about control. The citizen voted in 2020 and eliminated the Dems, Once gone they know they’ll never return, thus the stop counting votes to “fix” the problem. Now with the massive push on build back better, that will insure the Dems can “fix” the problem in future elections. That “fix” is mail in voting!

My friend had to go to the SS office this morning. She has to renew your driver’s license and she had all the papers she thought she needed to do this. She was married and divorced about 40 years ago and she had her marriage license and divorce papers. She also had her original birth certificate and ss card. Unfortunately, her SS card had her maiden name on it, and her nickname instead of her full name. I am sure she had to have done that, but she is sure the SS person put it on there. She is certain she changed the last name to her husband’s when she got married.
Anyway, I looked on the Internet and it said she needed to call in, or got on the website, and make an appt. She couldn’t do that, they want her to come in in person to make the appt. I can’t wait for her to come back and tell me all the problems she ran into trying to do that.
Of course, I told her if she was an illegal she wouldn’t have to go through all this. That nearly sent her over the edge. 😯

I retired in Aug. last year, I retired at 71 and had turned down my Medicare in SS because I had better coverage from my work place. I paid into this my whole life working. Now I have zero Medicare cause I have to wait until July when it reopens. That’s a year with no coverage. What steams me is these pinheads are fighting to get these illegals that never paid a dime into it all their lives covered. Talk about pissed!

You should not have to wait because the reason for going without coverage is because you were still working and covered by your employer. When I retired I got a letter from my employer stating that and was able to get my Medicare right away.

I remember when I got married I had to go to Social Security to change my name on my card/account. Had something to do with taxes, I think.

She just called. There was a guard at the door who wouldn’t let her in without an appt. She went out to her car and called and made one. But, she has to have another form of ID besides her D license will be expired when she has her appt and they won’t accept the extension she got from the DL place, for the next month. So now she has to bring in her passport, which may have expired. She is checking on it now. So, she will have to get it renewed, which could take who knows how long. Hopefully it is still good. What concerns me is that she has to mail them the originals and they said they would mail them back to her. :0

Hey everyone. I’ve been almost completely off the internet for a couple of months, with the exception of moderation next door. Hope you are all doing well during the new year.
Czarina, I wanted to tell you That found this recipe I copied no telling how long ago, and finally tried it today. Sure was good!
Czar’s pork roast
Cuban Pork Roast
Get whatever size pork roast you need, cut slits all over it and push peeled garlic toes deep in the flesh. Buy bottles of Mojo Crilloio and Bitter Orange marinade and pour enough over the roast in a cooking bag to adequately marinate it. Put it in the refrigerator for 3 days, turning a couple of times a day to get the marinade well soaked in. Bake in the bag at 250* until it is falling apart. (Cooking times vary with the size of the roast, so check a cookbook.)
Miss you guys!
