Good morning Sara
All quiet now, gently raining![]()






We are all ok here, I am just tired from work glad we have 3 days off. With the exception of xmas and new years we have been on 12 hour days since last july. CheapJoey, hope you are able to have a long weekend. I see you’ve been slightly mia. Hope you all are healthy!
took our hazard pay away, I knew it was not going to last long. Our warehouse has been cleaned out of all the veggies we had stored. We have been canning millions of canned beans and potatoes weekly since March. In 2 weeks pea season starts than carrots and after that corn. We will be on 12 hours until the end of the year Hiya JoeyGood morning Sara, Dale and lurkers
Waiting for my taxes and stimulus money, going to buy a bigger deep freezer for the 1/2 cow we are going to buy from a friend at work to butcher

Hiya Joey
Good for you!! I’m starting to think that’s the way to go. We’ve been talking about going in with my parents and brother on a cow for awhile now. Haven’t pulled the trigger yet.
Sorry they took away the hazard pay. That stinks. Eeesh. 12 hours days for the long haul. I know the pay will be worth it. Glad you guys are doing ok. Enjoy the long weekend.
Making my first batch of sun tea today. Seems the sun doesn’t really want to cooperate though lol.


Good evening Sara and Joey
Woohoo Joey! That’s awesomeHalf a beef will be a good amount
I read that everyone was losing the hazard pay, that’s just wrong
How’s your stepdaughter Joey?
I’ve had sun tea in the past, seems like a waste of tea to me![]()

Not safe? Why not?Good morning Dale and lurkers
Mmmm Dale, biscuits...my fave. Perfect quotes as well. Thank you.
I do imagine it will be a nice chunk of change but also, it will last you a good while and save money in the long run, no? Plus you will be set in case there really is a meat shortage. They’ve been reporting it for weeks and so far we haven’t had too much of a problem. We had gotten 6lbs of ground beef and 25 premade burgers from Wegman’s this last shopping trip. The burgers should last us through the summer. Glad to hear Dannielle has recovered.
Lol Dale, think the trick is using a tea you like.I tried it yesterday with a splash of orange vodka. It was an orange Pekoe tea. It was pretty good. But now I’m seeing all over the internet, not safe
so next time I will do it in the fridge.

Not safe? Why not?
Meat is available but the price sure has shot up, ground beef has more than doubled here![]()


Good morning LoriGood morning all.
(((Dale)))I am so sorry to read that about your Grandson.
Another week (or so) flies by, not a thing going on here worth reporting on.
Thankfully sunshine and warm weather finally...but now it's like mid-summer...already.
DH bought a new smoker/grill, he's like a kid at Christmas.
He made the best ribs yesterday.
Joey, I agree with your post a ways back...EVERY SINGLE DAY...except one that I saw this past week....over 2000 new positives, and honestly, closer to 2500 everyday.
I guess it's good they're doing a lot of testing, wondering if any of these folks are asymptomatic...which if they are, good to know so they can quarantine...but dang...it's like NON stop.
Humph, never killed nobodyWater standing still in the sun. Creates a good environment for bacteria to grow. My family used to make it all the time in the summer. So I dunno. But I guess you can do it just the same in the fridge. Rather not take any chances.
Oh absolutely. The costs have definitely gone up. That and limits on what you can buy. I was shocked at the family size packs of beef/burgers that DH had ordered. Surprised we were able to get both.
