Joe and I have decided to see how much the virus spreads before doing any panic buying. Just watch and wait.

My mother's goulash was chunks of chuck, green peppers, paprika, sour cream, beef broth all poured over noodles. It was good but I can't eat paprika anymore. She got her recipe from an old BHG cookbook and tweeked it a bit.
I was watching the news and saw that Walmart was very busy with shoppers loading up on supplies just in case they have to stay in place because of the virus. I guess we will do the same. I am not panicked - yet, so I just want a few things and shelf stable items just in case.
I made tacos last night. Joe ate 4 and got sick. He has got to go to the gastro to see if he has another stricture in his gut, sort of like what Tina gets.
NormM wrote:Beth, that chicken does look good. Do you know if that recipe is Caribbean? I think that sauce is from Jamaica or Trinidad. Speaking of Jamaica and Corona, Charlie was going to take a vacation to Jamaica but (I think) he is reconsidering it since the virus has broken out.
Cookin Lore wrote:In Germany, Gulasch is only onions, garlic (sauteed) and chunks of meat. (water added after meat is browned) Mostly pork, because beef was always very expensive. Never ground meat, and no vegetables added. Thickened a bit, and served over noodles of some kind. Where I lived it was Spaetzle. I like broad egg noodles like fettuccini. Hungarian goulash has added tomatoes in it, and possibly potatoes.

I am getting about 3 hours of sleep a night. I can't get comfortable. The mattress is plush but not quite plush enough. I have a Tempurpedic topper on it but it is still not comfortable. I have a fiberfil topper but it isn't right either. I have a gel foam topper that is too hard. I am now looking at a latex topper but they can be ourageously expensive and many can't be returned. The problem is that you can't see them before you buy. I did find an Aireloom latex topper that I would have liked to try but it retails for $1900. The best price they could give me was $1000 and no returns. No thanks. I can buy a mattress for that price. Too risky. I thought I would see if someone has a floor model they can sell for less.

I did spend about half an hour today organizing / rearranging the freezers. I try to keep the kitchen freezer somewhat organized so I can tell at a glance what could be for supper. By that, I mean I have it divided into two sections. One section is for meats & vegetables, the other side is for breads, wraps, tortillas, etc. Somehow 'ONE' of us doesn't get the concept. It drives me crazy to open it, or attempt to open it, and find that things have been jammed in and getting caught on the top bin so it can't be opened nor closed.
The freezer in the garage is used as a landing area for when I make burger patties or want to freeze my marinated steaks. There SHOULD be enough space on the shelves for me to slip in a quarter sheet pan of wrapped meats without anything falling out. So far, it's pretty neat. Drives me crazy when things get shoved in without regard for how it 'might attack' when the door is opened next.....

Try My Pillow .com......... That Mike Lindell is on the tv ads 100 times a day.
He makes mattress toppers too.

When it gets to that point, I make a sign ( "Careful ... Avalanche" ), and tape it on the door.

Joe is driving her around today running errands because her car is broken. Her dogs are shut in her room and they are screaming and squealing because she is gone. Horrible dogs! I was in the laundry room doing clothes when I heard SHHH! SHHH! twice. I said "Is that you Joe"? thinking he might be home. No answer. The hair stood up on my neck. Who the heck told the dogs to shush? Am I hearing things? Then I realized it was Judge Judy telling some people to shush that were speaking out of line. What a relief! I am not hearing voices!
