I fried bacon, then onions, then the liver. It was quite tasty. We had it with carrots 🥕 that I had glazed with Dijon mustard and maple syrup.

Some want to re-open things too quickly, just my opinion. I am grateful for our state's governor who has shown more leadership than those above him. Again, my opinion. <br />I am also grateful for your blog which is such an uplifting place to come I do love that little bird cup - and thanks for the sore throat tea recipe. <br />I am sorry for what happened in your lovely Nova Scotia - your post was beautiful. A very special place. <br />Marylittlemancathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17042609230502564280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-51968248073414793112020-04-21T16:22:46.718+01:002020-04-21T16:22:46.718+01:00Our schools have been declared closed for the rest...Our schools have been declared closed for the rest of the school year and I'm thankful for that I would had to send a child off to school at this point. We can only wait and see how it is in the fall, when schools here are supposed to open again. It's one day at a time for me. Every day is something new. I'm staying in as long as I can and haven't hat to go out yet thanks to my loving family.

Its not a taste I ever acquired! Todd does enjoy liver, bacon and onions but only when we are out. LOL Just the smell of liver cooking makes me gag. One man's meat is surely another man's poison!

Some parents are not enjoying having all their children home, etc. But there are just so many unknown factors about this virus Elizabeth. It might be a pain to be stuck in the house 24/7 with your kids, but at what cost to let them go back to school? I don't think the cost is worth the sanity. Mind you there are some parents who aren't bothering to keep their kids home anyways, letting them wander about freely. My son walked into his living room the other day to see his oldest son's best friend standing there. He had gone for a bike ride and decided to visit. The mind boggles! xoxoMarie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-25473525421825302452020-04-21T10:59:45.110+01:002020-04-21T10:59:45.110+01:00Good morning, Marie.

It would have been hard for you and Todd to say goodbye to your children today. On the bright side, you still have their visit to look forward to. We shopped yesterday and I was surprised as there was no line-up to get in, shelves were pretty well stocked, no line-up to pay, either. I bought beef liver to have for dinner tonight so I'm going to pop over to your blog and see if I can find a recipe. Enjoy the sunshine.

I do admire knitting!! I am sorry you are missing the kids who would have come. Tis a bummer for sure!! Would I send the kids back to school now? No...my grandkids are getting more time with Mama and are learning things schools here do not teach...gardening for one!! They are STILL learning...just somewhat different ways. THAT is a good thing. Well, I homeschooled quite a few years...and thankfully my 3 did well...and all have jobs where they are still employed and paid, though home. VERY grateful for that!! One thing I do hope comes of all this mess, is that people start looking at what can be done to help children and parents be together more...and learn a larger variety of subjects!! I am not against school teachers, by the way, as many are in my kin plus I was in college for an education degree.<br />Elizabeth xoxoElizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07529409389057290042noreply@blogger.com
