TW: Food. Really wanted to go out for a happy hour but with the rain I stayed home & tried making stuffed shells for the first time with some leftovers. Chicken & Spinach Alfredo, (vegan jar sauce) with a side of ground beef in homemade red sauce, with Lactaid cottage cheese. 😋

Photo of a glass baking dish in a white stovetop filled 4/5 with a white Alfredo sauce over chicken and spinach pasta shells, and 1/5 with beef stuffed shells with a red sauce, topped with cottage cheese.

Tried a version of dump cake with a can of pumpkin and it turned out very well! Couldn't find nondairy evaporated milk at two stores this week so I made my own. Added pecans on top. Hard to choose from the 15 recipes with pumpkin and cake mix, will try pumpkin oatmeal cookies next. 😋

Here's the guidelines on alcohol use from the CDC, funny how I count find this graphic on the website anymore.

CDC graphic (no longer available on the website) that illustrates what constitutes one standard alcoholic drink, lists how excessive alcohol use is measured, including examples of binge drinking or heavy drinking, and what's the recommended alcoholic drink consumption for moderation.

DIY Plumbing update: was able to loosen water shut off valves, removed & cleaned the P valve. All nuts and o-rings seem to be in good shape. Reassembly was more challenging. Visited local hardware store & showed pics to staff: good advice on how to reassemble and options for an extender if needed.

Welp, woke up to the previously cleared porch and sidewalk full of drifted snow & topped with sleet. 🙃 After 20 mins I was able to clear this little bit so at least we can open the front door. The rest of the sidewalk is a block of ice. No plows on our roads yet. #Frozen #Snowday
