They seem to be one of those mysterious somethings that are best made by someone else -- like boudin or chicken fried steak. The new house is looking good. So many details to be attended to! You and your sister both are going to feel like singing "free at last" when that's all done. Well, at least sort of done. "All done" will take a while.shoreacreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284698314697628805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-17705489226292854732020-08-14T15:10:46.068-05:002020-08-14T15:10:46.068-05:00I make my egg rolls with chopped bok choy, green c...I make my egg rolls with chopped bok choy, green cabbage, carrots, water chestnuts, and green onions. I don't like bamboo shoots or sprouts. I cook it up with oyster sauce and soy sauce. I sometimes make a half and half lean hamburger with pork sausage ( Little Sizzlers) water chestnuts, green onion, soy and oyster sauces. makes a great meat egg roll or won ton roll with won ton soup.<br />People are never going to be happy with whoever a president picks. I think it's a fine pick. A no-nonsense woman to take on the crazy republicans.<br />I'm finally coming back to blogging again.

I wanted a Harris/Buttigieg (even though most Americans are too dumb to pronounce his names) or a Warren/anyone she wanted ticket.

And I hadn't heard he'd donated to Harris before, either!

It made us exhale a sigh of relief and lifted our spirits immensely. Now if we can just figure out what to do with the unraveling of the US Postal Service.

Add whatever else you want in there. And I bake mine, rather than frying because it's easier. They aren't as good, I'm sure, but they are good enough. <br />You sure have put in a lot of work on that new home. It's going to be sweet when all of the work is done and your sister is moved in.
