Chili sounds delicious! I think I will make some tomorrow in the Instapot. I'm thinking cornbread to go with it.

It’s going to be niceish today; 50 degrees supposedly. I’m taking the pups to work with me and afterwards we will go walking at the Biltmore estate. Then I’ll pick up dinner from my favorite restaurant before we head home. And THEN I’m off for two whole days and they better not even call me to fill in!!

It has warmed up here too. I can't wait to get back to the beach!

I’m planning several trips for the approaching spring and summer…

Helen, Ga for a day/weekend trip, Gatlinburg with my daughter and grandkiddos, possibly Myrtle Beach as well… Nashville at some point as well…..

We're going to Helen and Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge too this year, with a stop by Dollywood!!! As for the beach, we'll be heading to Panama City Beach.

Looking Forward to.
 

Hoping to feel better soon. In hospital for a week with Norovirus. Bad shape still. Very exhaused, still nauseated so food is of little interest but fluids are a must. My brother came to bring me things and he is now sick at home alone. I read that 70 people on a cruise ship came down with it in two days out of over 200 folks on that ship. Highly contageous and not a good virus.

Oh this sounds awful. I hope you're getting good care and that you and your brother both feel better soon.

I'm so sorry to hear this. Norovirus is miserable. I hope you and your brother get well soon.

Looking forward to
 

Feeling better would be good to look forward to. Still nausea etc. with this namm Norovirus. Can't eat, have litle or no appetite. Living on water and crackers. Please take care as this thing is gone wild here and is so very easy to catch with no prevention but masks and hands.

I’m looking forward to the day that America holds Cheetolini and his co-conspirators accountable for all the damage they are doing to us.

The day these people are prosecuted for damaging our country will be the day our country survives their coup to take over our country.

Meeting up with an old friend for a late lunch tomorrow. I can't wait! Also, this pub has on draft a Belgian Sour Tripel Ale fruited with raspberries that I can't wait to try!

It's finally starting to warm up. The storm we had last weekend left 2-3 inches of ice on everything and then the temps stayed between 4-20 degrees all week so there wan't enough salt in the world to melt the ice. The next week is all between 30-45 degrees which means, not only will the ice melt, but I can get outside for walks again. Everyone has been so cooped up. That on top of the political tyranny, everything just has been feeling dismal and ominous.

I’m looking forward to my birthday,
later on this spring…. :birthday2:

And, Baseball! :cheer:

Definitely Baseball!!!

I'm looking forward to my first home grown tomato sandwich of the summer. I know they're a ways off yet, but they have been on my mind lately. I have yet to decide if I will be growing the tomatoes myself - something I have not been very successful at in the past as my yard doesn't get enough sun, although every few years I try again anyway.
