Is there...uncondensed soup in it, or no soup at all??

No soup at all. Milk, mayo, flour (except I use cornstarch slurry, because GF), butter-fried mushrooms, frozen peas make up the guts. Well, plus (rice) noodles. Topping is buttered (GF) bread crumbs. Uh, I added cheese, too.

Yeah, fancy versions of comfort foods rarely taste better than the original, somehow. Although my friend who made me my first tuna noodle casserole in college (mom didn't like it, so she never made it, so I hadn't had it) made a white sauce instead of using cream of mushroom soup because that's how her family did it

Exactly. Someone did a fancified green bean casserole at Thanksgiving one year. Ha, ha, ha... no. There was 100% concurrence on that one.

I am rebelling a little bit by not saying "please let me know if you have any questions". I don't want to know! I don't have answers!

That is definitely the move.

It is casserole night at the Holts tonight. This one is a quinoa/chicken/broccoli with enchiladas sauce variety. DH can add cheese if he wants but it is off my list.

Yep, she's a rebel. Go -t!

Timelies all!

It's been one of those days. The nanny/aide had a doctor's appointment this morning, so we had to handle Zoom school on our own. Started out fine, but by the reading class Mr. S was behaving badly. I didn't handle it very well.(It probably didn't help that the first dose of Adderall was starting to wear off by then.)

I don't know about Austin, but here in San Antonio the city keeps up a series of pop-up locations for testing. No charge or appointment, just first come, first serve.

Heh. Just got an email saying don't send that letter yet it didn't save correctly. Oh well. But I hope that means the actual letter will make more sense...

Today is a freaking shitshow of a day because I am cursed when it comes to getting technology to work. I decided to get a new phone with spectrum and I came home to get the wifi password and the wifi stopped working. And anyway long story short I'm now on the phone with spectrum to see if there is an internet issue.

And I was going to make dinner but M's mom started something because it was "getting so late and nothing was started" . That was at 4:15. I don't know why I can't remember they eat so freaking early. But they will eat breakfast and then nibble on things and then eat early dinner and then snack when I get home.

I still have to order groceries and I don't know why but I have to make the list and do the order even though I don't do most of the cooking. I buy the groceries (M pays the utilities).

So my day off has been as frustrating as if I was at work. M is currently is currently napping because even though I'm cursed with electronics im still better at dealing with this.

I wanted a lazy day. Maybe Saturday. I feel like this all started when I turned the router over and I only did that instead of asking where we wrote the password down because I didn't want to hear M bitching to whoever he was playing COD with about how he was being pestered

We dropped our ballots off at least three weeks ago, and Matt is tracking them. They've at least been accepted; I don't know if there's anything beyond that.

Accepted should be good. Anything beyond that gets into counting and I don't think any state starts counting votes before election day.

I pre-ordered from the Happy Lobster food truck for dinner tonight! I do miss food-truck Fridays downtown.
