Wednesday, December 23, 2020 The Day Before the Day Before Christmas

 I was doing laundry and changing sheets when Connie called.  We talked for about an hour.  Then Sue called and wanted addresses and birthday information that I had, so we talked for close to a half hour..  I tried to reach my sister Gail, so I can arrange to get her Christmas gift to her.  I wanted to pick up my new eye drops at Rite Aid but apparently Dr. Legeratta and Univera are still working on getting it pre-approved.

I decided to go to the library to pick up a couple of calendars as well as to Prudden and Kandt, who also gives away nice calendars. I got two at the library and one at Gould's Flower Shop.   Prudden and Kandt was closed.  I drove around and saw some of the houses decorated for Christmas.  

I decided to try making Yorkshire Puddings again, this time using the recipe found in the old Betty Crocker cookbook.  I think this is the recipe I used a long time ago when I was first married, to make cream puffs.  And then again, a few years ago, since I moved here, I made Yorkshire Puddings a few times.

Anyways, this recipe worked well and the popovers turned out well.  The recipe makes 12.  Next time I will grease the muffin cups better than I did today, OR use a non stick muffin pan.  

See how nicely they popped/puffed up!!!!

Peg called several times in the evening.  She asked me to help with a funeral meal next Wednesday.  Betty called, and so did Myrna.  

I received a beautiful card and a nice letter from Leslie.  I went to my email and typed out a nice return letter to her BUT then I was kicked online  (SPECTRUM STINKS)  so I saved it to drafts.  I went in later when I was online and found my draft, but only the first line of my email was saved.
