My nephews made sure to stop by Auntie Alexa’s house for lots of candy! G. I. Joe and Bumbleebee from the Transformers. Aren’t they adorable?
I surprised the camera took such a good photo because it was getting dark. They had a lot of fun tonight!
Corn Bread
One of the fun things about dinner is having a different kind of bread on the side. I love biscuits, dinner rolls and garlic bread. But I also love cornbread and I try to fix that at least once a week.
Corn bread goes great with chili or any kind of macaroni and cheese casserole. Sometimes I fix it as a loaf of bread and sometimes I make muffins. I’m looking for the recipe of a type of cornbread that I have had at a restaurant. The cornbread is very loose and put on the plate with a big spoon. I don’t know what it is called, but it must be a relative to spoon bread.
Allergies Again
The past couple of days have been so bad for my allergies. I woke up Thursday morning with all the symptoms: stuffy nose, itchy eyes, sneezing, headache. Now my ears hurt too, and my throat is really sore.
I have no fever and achiness, so I don’t believe it is the flu. But none of the over the counter meds are helping. I tried my regular Tylenol Severe Allergy and got no relief, so I tried a couple of Claritan. Those did nothing at all for relief. Then a friend mentioned Zyrtec.
So I went to Walgreens this morning and bought a pack of Zyrtec. All of this allergy stuff is very expensive, so I hope this works and I don’t have to go back for something else tomorrow.
