Lemon's drop-inn

Turkey can be more dry. That's why my mom prefers chicken over it.

[Lemon Cheesecake]

That's true and texture is a little different even though they are both fowl.

[Watery Star]

I like it for sandwiches though. I had two thin sliced turkey sandwiches with provolone cheese and mayo for lunch today.

[Lemon Cheesecake]

have you tried the turkey sandwiches with a little pesto mixed in the mayo?

[Watery Star]

Not a big fan of pesto.

I'm going to veg out at the couch. Talk to you later.

[Lemon Cheesecake]

ok, have a good rest

[dragoness129]

I do not like mayo or mustard.

[Lemon Cheesecake]

I'm not a big fan of either unless the mayo is in my potato salad, egg salad, tuna salad...I usually get light on the mayo or none at all on a sandwich. Mustard there are so many varieties of but other then yellow on my hot dog or a bit of mustard in my potato salad I am not a big fan either. Most are too spicy for me.

[dragoness129]

I don't like any of those types of of salads. Just regular salads with lettuce. I prefer my tuna plain.
Hotdogs get just ketchup, as do some of my sandwiches.

[Lemon Cheesecake]

plain tuna on a lettuce salad is good.
My favorite on hot dogs is sweet relish, but I do like a chili dog if it isn't too spicy.
Ketchup on french fries/hash browns and on macaroni, occasionally on a hot dog.

I'm very sorry for your loss of your mom. Was it unexpected? Sounds like a there's a lot of change in your life. Sometimes change is good as it can mean a new start. I hope things will be getting better for you.

[Lemon Cheesecake]

Even if you are expecting it a loss is still difficult. Then the loss of your family members not being close by has to have added a burden so I am very sad for you, Star.

We were discussing ways to get through a month when you are on a tight budget or options that are out there ( like food banks and community/church programs) in some other threads. Seems like there are a few of you who are really struggling. I have had those moments before -mostly as a student- praying to find some loose change on the ground so I could do laundry. Fortunately I have been able to find regular work and so long as I keep my expenses below what I make then I can save money. Most of us just work to survive but sometimes expenses are less then other times and we get a little extra tucked away.

The problem is when the unexpected pops up and it seems like everything always needs to be fixed or dealt with at the same time! I suppose having had to struggle for stuff as a kid I grew up trying to maximize anything I have - mind you probably keeping things well passed the life of the item. I don't have to have the latest stuff, just stuff that works. And most things will come on sale or clearance eventually just watch for the sales.

Is there a chance you may move also so you are close to the rest of the family?
