If you need, I had 2 letters left for this book;

Well ladies, I don't think I will be home from work tomorrow before our time is up so I am entering my last books now as being finished tomorrow (finishing tomorrow). It's been fun. And a challenge. lol. We did alright being down 2 other people.

Mine too, eating that is. In Christmas books, go figure.

Two years ago, everything I read and listened to was very descriptive on what they ate. Especially Darynda Jones. It has been way more of a challenge. I have to keep reminding myself to also write down character names when I am listening to audiobooks.

Thanks all. I am still having respiratory issues. I think that if after another week I might go to urgent care bc it might require steroids (I also have asthma).

It felt like a bad case of bronchitis. I wouldn't have even thought to test for Covid but my mom "made" me. Its been more than 2 weeks and I still am coughing. It's interesting how differently it affects people. From just a muscle ache to death.

And, edible gold has some weird health benefits (I didn't read that much into it).

Last month I had a week off from work and this month a week off with Covid, so all I did was read. So hopefully that helps.

When I looked up gold in food, I found this

"Among the dishes and beverages in which edible gold is implemented there are cakes and sweet desserts, soups, pastas, risottos, sushi, cocktails and wines. Since it is used as tasteless garnish, edible gold is usually the ingredient at the top of the dish at direct contact with food."

So I am guessing we could add it to pretty much every pasta, curry or dessert (if it was a big book)

I won't be home from work before the cut off time tomorrow, so I went ahead and put that I will finish my book tomorrow (which I will). Nothing will have to be changed for them.

Thank you Heather. I still don't know what UTC is so that works

√√
It says we are at 20 on the Bonuses

I thought it only tallied the meals that we have typed YES into Shop Front, but guess it doesn't matter (I changed a No to a Yes to see)

heehee I just couldn't get out of my own way. weird headache. Thank you

Ok, give me all the food words like FISH, that only have 1 vowel. I am struggling

FISH
SPAM
HAM

I just learned that capers are in Muffaletta sandwiches

Phew, it's just 1 U, Y and I now :-)

Now I'm curious. What is paneer? And gammon

√√

For Katsu curry; maybe change to garam masala (I lost it but think that's what it was)
or saag paneer
chilli powder

Not to be a negative nelly...but we have 5 missing U letters: baguette, jackfruit, walnut and katsu curry. Can we change the Katsu Curry to something else? The S can go down to spaghetti and I can figure out another way to finish off Worth the Risk.

Even with all the crazy names in Zercy and in Sky and Breath, there are none with a U

Capers are these seed like things but I have no idea what kind of food they are used in

Ugggg...my audiobook Cross is only listed in Goodreads as Kindle and 299 pages. 1 page!!
