cagoldi , I finally watched Unlocking the Cage. After watching it, I looked up the NonHuman Rights Project website. Hercules and Leo were in fact not taken to the sanctuary. It says the NIRC started wanting nondisclosure agreements, etc. and ended up shipping them back to the research facility in Louisiana instead. I haven't kept up with their work in a few months. I need to check with one of my friends to see what's going on lately. The old school activists that have done lots of hands on work with primates are good about staying in the loop. Where did you find the movie? Have they finally released it on Netflix? Yeah, I got the dvd through Netflix. I can't believe it's from 2016.

I actually don't think I've ever had gnocchi, but I love potatoes and pasta so what could go wrong? This is the recipe I'm using, I'll let you know if it's good. I smells really good in my house right now. pinchofyum.com/crockpot-chicken-gnocchi-soupThat looks great! I'm going to omit the chicken/broth and try it when it cools off here.

Just popping to say hi! I have to go back and read. I'm so glad it's Friday. This week of work has worn me out. Hope everyone is well. Be back later after I'm caught up.

I just had to explain the concept/purpose of parenthesis in a numeric equation to one of the attorneys. Dude is 60 something years old and has been doing this kind of work forever, why does he not know how to properly use parenthesis????

Gnocchi is so good. With a truffle cream sauce is one of my greatest pleasures in life.

I love gnocchi. I get an Aldi flyer in my newspaper but I have never been except once when I nursed T in an Aldi parking lot in Connecticut while DH took DD in the store to clean her up because she got carsick. Just googled and their is an Aldi in my city.
@jewels73 I finally went to the Zinburger near my house the other day. Had the best milkshake ever. Now when I'm not pregnant, how will I pick between wine and a milkshake.

I just let three people out in bumper-to-bumper rush hour traffic, and not a single one smiled or waved at me. My feelings are hurt.

I never liked gnocchi until I had it at a restaurant in Boston. It was gnocchi fradiavlo and it was the best thing ever!

Almost done with year end spending. Next week we are interviewing for a new probation officer and I have 17 interviews over 3 days. It's going to be rough.

Chickpea question. If you're only using a little from the can do you store the rest in its juices in the fridge in Tupperware? Or drain it all?

Update on the gnocchi soup: it's pretty good, would have been better if I didn't burn the bacon. H took one look at it and said she didn't like it, S ate quite a bit of the actual liquid. Would cook again.

Boy cats got in a fight. Ace's claw got left behind in Kaine's eyelid. I freaked out because I thought his third eyelid had ripped. Ace just vomited. This night is going to be fun.

Does anyone have recommendations for a good sunless tanner? I want something subtle and that doesn't stink. I used this earlier this summer and liked it

We have quite a few Aldi's in the area. The closest one was closed for over a month for remodeling and just reopened about a week ago. I need to go. It's great for your staples, cereal, bread, milk, but I don't buy much meat there. And their produce is spotty. I usually have to go to Aldi and another store for produce. So I weigh if the money I will save is worth hauling Evie into two stores...generally spending more out weighs saving.

wineallthetime EDD 5/8 - subject to change after my dating ultrasound next Thursday. I'll keep you posted. So close! It was weird cause my dating u/s said 5/10, but they kept my due date based on period. They've always moved it in the past. I'm pretty sure mine actually is 5/10 cause I must have ovulated late since we were avoiding that time to prevent pregnancy...

My last period put me at 12/27, dating u/s put me at 12/30 but magic has moved me to 12/23 and I'm more than happy to go with it because insurance deductible restarts 12/31.
