Good morning Ice
Hope your Sunday was restful and parma chicken was delightful!
Glad to hear you are toasty warm.
I have my robe on and a blanket while on the couch this morning.
Rick bought a new filter for the furnace. In 2023 the price was $97 and this year it was $168!!! Too much of an increase.
So the furnace is ready to go!

Hi Ardy.
Chicken Parma cannot be beaten.lol.
Sun still shining and coming through my window where4 I sit at my computer so it is heating up the room a bit now.
Prices just seem to be rising day by day now for everything it seems.
Hope you do not need your furnace yet.😀😘

Good morning Ice,
I hope that bright sunshine will help warm up the house some today. The strong winds sound chilling.

Hi Jenn.
My computer room faces directly South and warming up nicely now.
But I have had to shut the blind a bit now as the sun is very low in the sky and shines right in my eyes at the moment.
I did step outside a moment ago to put a nbit of bird food on the ground but I did not stay long Brrrrrr.😘

Storm Claudia did some serious damage to Monmouth and Abergavenny, Wales; and now it’s icing over — those poor people 🙏

Jenn, have you ever tried Lion Brand Wool-Ease yarn from Michaels? I wonder how the feel of it compares to your favorite Lucky Brand 50wool/50cotton?

Yes Kathy, I have used that type of yarn. It is nice but I really could only perfectly match the colors I had been using of the Lucky Brand. I think you meant could I add the Lion Brand to my project? It is hard to find a 50/50 blend usually the Lion Brand Wool-Ease is only 20% wool. I appreciate you thinking of me my friend. 💜
 Lion Brand Wool-Ease yarn is 20% wool, with the rest of the blend being 80% acrylic. This blend provides the warmth and feel of wool with the easy-care properties of acrylic

Jenn, just saw your question…no it’s not like a float, blended so it’s just a root beer shake…not all places will make those.
Sometimes I like their flavors of the day and I get that, but I don’t always like them.

Kathy, to answer you from below, the lasagna with the no boil noodles was good. Just not as thick as the regular which I do prefer but they were good. I made 2 smaller pans and froze one to bake off another day. I made them in bread pans, just the right size for the 2 of us. They layer thicker in the bread pans. which I like.

Interesting you used bread pans. Glad you like the noodles…..there was something about them we didnt like them as well.

Jenn

I didn’t like them as well for the thinness of them compared to the nice chewy regular lasagna.
