I doubt that we will ever own another dog (had an Irish Setter once that stole my heart), but if we did, it would probably be a Golden Retriever or a Yellow Lab.Rianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09472421271620543536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076673433792968099.post-16846156569818445852020-10-21T12:57:06.370-07:002020-10-21T12:57:06.370-07:00You're simply saying what a lot of us are sayi...You're simply saying what a lot of us are saying, Rian, you go girl!<br /><br />I love quiche, my son not so much though he'll eat omelettes. But I do tend to hide vegetables where I can. He has no idea my mac and cheese has onions, lol.<br /><br />I had a dog years ago, who was a mix of the Giant Pyrennes and a golden lab. Beautiful dog and absolutely the sweetest dog. I'm with your granddaughter...they're awesome to hug.<br /><br />Take care and stay well.Maebemehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09706540456819503068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076673433792968099.post-53622466342459915692020-10-19T15:33:25.973-07:002020-10-19T15:33:25.973-07:00I agree with you Anni - love broccoli too.

I was too busy/lazy to bother with a crust so I used the Bisquick method. It was well received all the same.<br />Our VT Governor was very late in the game to issue a mask mandate but very early to model wearing one and to urge people to have the common sense to wear one along with hand washing and physical distancing and that message hasn't faltered.Olgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00692441479616299920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076673433792968099.post-81375180549296106602020-10-19T05:00:52.940-07:002020-10-19T05:00:52.940-07:00Vent away.

They wash and dry so beautifully.<br />And yes - even though I'm not a 'game' person (don't even play cards), I do enjoy this virtual living game. It actually belongs to my grandson who handed it to me one day and said to try it. He hasn't gotten it back. I'm hooked.
