Just let me know and I’ll meet you there. Saturdays are usually good and I work a half day on Fridays. Just so you aren’t shocked and you can prepare yourself, I kinda look like the elephant man.

Good morning Kev, I just realized that I didn't share a photo I posted yesterday. It seems I forgot to click "post." It was a busy day yesterday, and when I got home I started reinforcing another cage because I also have a canary now, but it was brought to me in a small cage, almost done

mornin-ish.

Lots of annoying pain and a pretty empty pantry calls for potato soup in a crock pot. No fancy garnishes, just taters shallots and garlic with cream of chicken soup.

While peeling the taters I noticed that a lot of them were bruised up. So who’s out there beating up tubers? lol.

Good morning Bev! No bacon or cheddar? Bacon bits will do in a pinch. Sour cream also. Sorry, I’ll mind my own business.

Hey those things aren't that bad.
 
Good morning everyone! I hope you have an amazing Saturday! Working on my grocery order for today and thinking I'm tired of eating the same stuff. So chefs of the Smorgasbord help me out with some easy somewhat healthy recipes if you can that don't cost an arm and a leg to make.
With this crew, you may want to add: 'that taste good' to your list of requirements.

--edit--
and you may want to add a disclaimer: somewhat healthy for humans to your requirements.
