A Tale of 2 Pizzas, a Bottle of Dark Beer & No Headlines About....., Which I'm Making Up For Now....

I spent the afternoon yesterday making 2 awesome pizzas. One for us and one for our friends and neighbours that just inexplicably decided to lend us a ton of helping hands earlier this week by doing some snowblowing for my husband (even though we have our own snowblowers - 2 actually and he's capable of doing it himself), then helping him set up a weather station we have here, which is like theirs. The lady decided to clean the 30cms of snow we had sitting on the top of our car off for us, out of the blue like that too. So I made them a French bread baguette for the husband's snowblowing the other day during the snowstorm and then they did the rest of the stuff afterwards. So I decided maybe I would make them a pizza as a thank you. Which I did. In fact I made 2 identical, one for them and one for us to have for supper last night. Buttt.....

As my husband was going over to their place with their pizza he slipped  on some ice and while he was trying to catch his balance again, everything that was on the pizza, above the pepperoni (which is immediately above the tomato sauce), slid off onto the driveway. So he came back in the house with a naked pepperoni pizza, instead of what he left with which was a pizza that had in order, the crust, topped with tomato pizza sauce, pepperoni, mushrooms, 1/2 smoked meat sandwich's worth of Montreal smoked meat topping the mushrooms, shredded mozzarella cheese, slices of green pepper, sliced onion rings, and approximately 1 pkg of cooked bacon (2 packages were cooked and it was basically evenly divided between the 2 pizzas). 

In making those pizzas, I used all of the smoked meat and bacon, and most of the cheese and basically all I had left was some left over mushroom slices, onion slices and one piece of green pepper with some mozzarella dust. So when he came back inside with the tomato sauce pepperoni only pizza in his hands, I wanted to cry.  So we gave them the one I made for us, which was still sitting atop the stove waiting for the oven to preheat and I took the tomato sauce, pepperoni pizza and dumped the rest of the veggies I had left over the top of it except the one pepper piece and then the cheese dust on top of that, but I remembered we had some shredded taco cheese (Tex-Mex) in the fridge so I got that out and dumped the rest of that over the top of the pizza, put the one green pepper piece I had in the middle and then opened a can of sliced black olives (like on the pizza in the picture above) and basically sprinkled a bunch of them around the centerized pepper and by then the oven was hot enough to cook it. 
 
So I put it in and that was our pizza - not as I had planned but still pretty good. Though I would've liked the other one better. We had that for supper and in hindsight now I realize I should've had the iced-tea my husband offered me, but instead I opted for  Leffe Dark Beer - one of my favourite beers, even though I know beer usually makes me sleepy. 
 
So the carbs in the pizza crust which I know I'd normally have a hard time to stay awake while digesting and the beer didn't help. I actually fell asleep at the table and I guess for a laugh, my husband slammed his hand down on the table, making a huge noise and the table to shake. So I jolted awake and nearly had a heart attack, while he's sitting there laughing at me. Ha ha, very funny there buddy. Wait.... You'll fall asleep somewhere sometime and I'll get you back. You wait and see.... Well maybe not the blog visitors, maybe you'll never know about it, but he definitely will.

Anyhow after being jolted awake like that I decided to go put my pjs on and crawl in bed. Where I stayed until I had awful cramps in my foot where it felt like all my toes were trying to cross like when we cross our fingers. 
 
Holy mother of..... So I got up and hobbled to get some potassium pills and a banana into me, hoping that would help. It did, but only eventually, and then after my foot felt better and relaxed, it happened again. Grrrrrrrrrr.....  Anyhow, suffice to say, I wasn't in any mood or condition to work on this blog.... Even relaxing on the couch watching TV, didn't help my foot much. Every once in awhile I had to abruptly shove my foot into the floor trying to put all my weight on it, to try to make the pain stop - sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't.  Anyhow, I hope no one is going to try to tell me "oh that's one of the signs of coronavirus", because it isn't and I know it.
 
Having just finished dinner consisting of rice & 30 Minute Mongolian Beef
and green string beans that were stir fried along with the beef, ginger & garlic, as per the recipe, I'm going to see if I can manage to keep my eyes open long enough to do this. Thankfully, I used the Splenda 1/2 & 1/2 brown sugar and not straight brown sugar or I know I wouldn't be able to stay awake. As it is at this particular moment, I still feel pretty peppy. I'm going to try to stay that way. Hopefully. 
 
So, I'm going to try to get through all the headlines today, if I can. If not, there'll be some left over for some other time, I guess.... Anyhow, I'm at it again, so read on....
 

Something maybe Montrealers didn't know. Though that hideous colour that they always show, it's like yeah so? Big deal? I wish it either changed colour or shut off altogether.
 
I never saw Sandy Rinaldo visibly shudder except when she announced this story on the CTV news.  hehehe That was funny.
 

Of course because that's one of the most lucrative money makers besides income and property taxes the government has going.
 
 
 
 
PM dismisses COVID-19 vaccine rollout 'noise,' says doses will ramp up soon  Soon? Like how soon? Anytime this year? Because even the Moderna doses we were supposed to get this week, which were originally drastically reduced, are now cancelled altogether. So not only don't we have Pfizer vaccines we now have nothing from Moderna as well!

 
 
Opinion: Among the glumness of another COVID extension, signs of hope I sure wish I new where those signs are, because I don't see them. 

I'm sure the people in those regions don't see the signs of hope either....
 

Someone's got to, because he's not giving any on his own.
 
 
 
Unwilling to wait, poorer countries seek their own vaccines   I don't blame them. Canada should try to approve of other vaccines besides just the two vaccine vaporware bozo brains et. al. have already approved of.

Over 1,000 cases, doesn't seem like it's in check to me. 
 

Good for them. I know a chef (she was a former girlfriend of my son's) that graduated from a college level chef program for the hotel and hospitality business. She was offered a chance to further her education in France, but she couldn't afford it. But she's an excellent chef, nontheless. She being about half my age, taught me a lot of what I know in the kitchen now. Before she came into our lives, I was content to throw a roast or chicken in the oven stab a few potatoes to bake with the meat and boil some corn or carrots or something to have as a veggies side dish. That was the extent of my cooking. Since then, I haven't been afraid to tackle new recipes and foods - knowing the techniques involved already and the reasons behind certain steps given in recipes. 
 
 
Swiss march in lakeside tax haven to protest COVID-19 lockdown I thought the Swiss were one of the most democractic countries on the face of the earth, where they got together on a weekly basis to vote on polices, laws and by-laws and all the citizens of that jurisdiction that the law would affect was a part of the vote and not just elected representatives. So that being the case, why are they protesting something they apparently voted for? Just wondering.... Unless I misunderstood their form of democracy.
 
 
 
Good for them. 😡

That reminds me, I still have a lot of the virtual travels sites bookmarked, that I'll have to post in here someday soon, for our amusement if nothing else.
 

 

What a lying dirtbag! If that's true why didn't he mention at the beginning that there might be some delays along the way eh???? He makes sheite up as he goes along and hopes we won't know the difference.
 
Fauci says US should prioritize administering second vaccine dose over giving out first jabs to more Americans Even though their situation is no where near as dire as ours is in the vaccine dept., I agree with him, because you never know what kind of sheite Pfizer & Moderna will pull next. 

Okay, but call me nuts if you want.... But what's wrong with having a little booklet that records all your vaccinations in - date and type signed by doctor giving it and reactions if any.... All QC born people have one - It also has space in for other things like hospitalizations, operations, being treated for specific diseases etc.... It's a health record that the person has for their own record, so there's no more wondering when's the last time you had a tetanus shot, or if you have the vaccination against menningitis given in such a year or not etc... It's all right there in the booklet. I don't see why more provinces, countries and regions don't issue booklets like that. I think it's a good idea and one I wish I had've been given as a kid in my native NS. 
 
 
The world is on the precipice of a global vaccine war that could wreck the fight against COVID-19 Yup, I had it pegged the other day when I said in one comment on a vaccine story that they should start calling this "vaccine wars", instead of whatever they were calling it. 

Euuuu Yippie Kay Yay For Her!!!!! Isn't that what the VP's job normally entails in the US? If so, why do you need a press anouncement everytime she performs a duty under that title? You didn't do it for Pence, or Biden, or whoever Bush had for VP, or Gore nor any other VP in living memory, that I know about. The only reason it's here is 1) It has to do with COVID and 2)to show how stingy and mean hearted the US gov't is towards their own people and if she didn't side with the Dems there would be no relief for the people either.
 
As vaccine deliveries lag, opposition MPs demand more than shots in the dark Do you think you'll get any straight answers out of little lying scuzzbucket Pinochhio???? 

Whenever that might be. The way it's going now, this advice will be obsolete by the time Canada's post pandemic, because that won't be for another 10.9 years from now.
 
Forced store closures dampen Indigo's holiday sales period, but profits still climb Well considering that here in QC at least, most of the more interesting books you have we have to order either over the phone or online, because they're not stocked on the shelves here. Which I hate. I hate buying books I can't get a feel for (by it's back cover or inner flaps or contents page etc..) before buying it. But anyhow....

A Cdn airlines company that's transparent? That's a dream and a half, boy.
 

I betcha, a large part of that cost is a kickback to the gov't for getting the hotels some form of business during the quarantine. I bet the real cost is less than $500, so the gov't is letting the hotels keep $1,000 - so even though they'd normally charge that $500 for the same services and make a profit off that $500 they're keeping the profit from that plus pocketing an extra $500 that and giving the other $1,000 back to the gov't or some gov't official - like maybe Bozo Brains himself. I bet that's how that works.  

So in other words we're looking at more "delays". I think I'll have better luck if I conjure up my own vaccine in my crawl space under the house, using whatever roots, mold and cobwebs I can find as incubation material.... And instead of throwing out all that fruit and veggie waste which I should've been composting anyhow but didn't as we aren't going to have a garden anymore, I could use that as the stuff to experiment with to see if I can make a concoction that works. I mean that environment and ingredients sounds like stuff bats would like, so maybe the coronavirus  will too, but maybe it'll like it a little too much and OD on the stuff and die. I mean, that's as good a shot as any we're ever likely to see here in Canada. Doncha think? Who knows!?! It might wind up being the world award winning formula that conquers all 4,000 variants and even emerging ones we don't know about yet. We ain't got nothing to lose except some table scraps, mold, roots & cobwebs.

To doses that go nowhere, or in the garbage, but definitely not to the countries that bought them.
 
Pfizer expects to cut COVID-19 vaccine production time by close to 50% as production ramps up, efficiencies increase Get this! they're going at Project Light Speed in the US, but in Europe they're going at Project Snail's Pace and Project Parking Lane.

Very good.
 

 
New Israeli Covid drug which cured 30 cases of disease hailed by scientists as 'huge breakthrough' Let's hope this one is better recieved and works better than all it's predecessors that've come along since this virus went global

 

That's awesome news! Now if Global vaccinations could surpass the global total of unvaccinated that would be even more miraculous.
 
On road to ending pandemic, more people vaccinated than total cases to date: data Another text version for those with no audio or video capabilities on their computers.

 
 
 
 
Nearly 100 inmates infected with COVID-19 after outbreak at Montreal's Bordeaux jail Oh boo hoo, it's holding area, most of them will be out in 3 weeks anyhow. 
 
New Ottawa Food Bank CEO taking charge at a challenging time Here's wishing her the all the best in the future!

There's NO REDEMPTION FOR ANY LEADERS WITH A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF DEATHS SURPASSING GENOCIDAL RATES LIKE THIS!!!!! The only redemption anyone in authority who let this many people die under their watch could hope for is life in a musty, grey, dingy dungeon with moldy bread and water for meals. Even thats too good for them. But leaders like you who've already had the virus, are unfit for the death I said should happen to you unscrupulous money grubbing, power tripping, draconian basterds and instead should maybe be laid out on a torture rack and tortured to death instead. That's what would happen to the likes of you and everyone else like you, if I were in charge. 

 
 
Toronto police lay charges after several large gatherings downtown 5 people is a large gathering is it? Okay.... Well I guess for a cop, that's running out of fingers to count on, on the hand who's fingers hes counting that's a large number, larger than that would've been too big for him count. Ergo astronomical.

 

That's where these vaccination record booklets come in handy.
 
Waiting for COVID-19 vaccinations is no way to help jobless Canadians The Lieberals are too freaking clueless to think of anything else. I mean they gave everyone some money LAST YEAR, so it's their problem if they don't have any left, they should've saved it for a rainy day, whether they needed it then or not is totally irrelevant. So what could be the problem now? They all should have mega bucks left over after all they  were given $2,000 a month which is just a bit more than minimum wage clear and not everyone was a big shot high roller wage earner, they were probably all minimum wage earners (as the clown in charge probably thinks), so they should have plenty of money left and don't need anymore now. Nor do the elderly, nor the disabled, nor homeless either for that matter.

Because Ford is Legault's Biggest Groupie! So monkey see, monkey do! That's why.
 
KINSELLA: Magnitude of Trudeau's incompetence now seen by all thanks to vaccine foibles Oh Thank God! Finally! I've waiting for this day since the ill fated Bataclan massacre and the smirking imbecile giving our condolences to the French gov't. I saw then and there what kind of brain dead idiot we had for a PM and couldn't wait to get rid of him. Unfortunately we're still not there yet, but maybe soon if this guy Kinsella is right about everyone now recognizing the idiot for what he is. Maybe we'll finally have a chance at dumping his lousy no good for nothing stupid, idiotic ash out of office and hopefully straight into a jail cell, for all his crimes not the least of which is mass genocide due to his COLOSSAL NEGLIGENCES. that's a plural because it's more than just one case of negligence that put us into this situation. It's basically everytime there was a decision or action to be taken regarding this plandemic he did the EXACT OPPOSITE OF WHAT SHOULD'VE BEEN DONE. So either that's gross negligence or willful gross negligence. Maybe that's why he's acting like a clueless idiot because he wants us to believe he really is and it's not all just a ruse to get away with just gross negligence and not willful gross negligence (because then it was on purpose and puts him in the same league as Hitler in mass murder).

Look at this! Companies paying employees in the US where there are plenty of shots available if they want one, to go get one, while we can't get one here even if we want one for love nor money. It makes me sick and my blood boil at the incompetence of the ash hole at the helm when I see stories like this. Gawd I just wish he'd get the f'n disease and die from it and get out of our freaking faces. That would serve him right for all his BS regarding this plandemic. 

Oh while this sounds too good to be true, it probably is. I'm from NS and depending where you settle down it may not be such a picnic, especially if you find yourself suddenly out of that job you had when you moved there and live in a remote area aka fishing village. Where everyone is clannish and some don't welcome "outsiders" very easily - even "outsiders" that were born and raised there but moved away. Are suspicious of new people and their ideas, where there's no work except fishing and mossing, working at the local general store, diner or gas station, or swatting mosquitos and sitting on the porch whittling lobster clasps and chewing tobacco (naw they probably don't do that anymore but they did when I was a kid). There's not a heck of a lot night life, at all especially if you live in rural areas, most restaurants close by 8 if there are any, that is. No bars. No places to go to mingle and meet people except maybe at the Friday night dance either at the Legion Hall or Firehall, no movie theatres, no shopping malls except in towns. Nope all you have depending on proximity to the ocean is the smell of the tidal flats and sound of the waves coming and going, seagulls, fog and mosquitos to keep you company. Otherwise it's wind and snow and maybe hurricanes keeping you housebound. If that sounds like heaven to you, then it's the paradise you've been dreaming of. But don't lose your work from home job, because you won't find any others. Oh and the hospital and medical system there is totally atrocious. I know here in QC we whine and cry when we have a 14 hour wait in the ER waitingroom, but there it's worse. Some ERs in county hospitals are closed certain days each week and some only open 1 or 2 days per week between 10am and 10pm - so you'll need to arrange for all of your accidents and sudden acute illnesses to occur then or drive to another county where their ER may be open that day. I'm not kidding either. That's still for real. Or at least it was in 2014 when we were there. So buyer beware is all I'm saying, because they make it sound so idyllic here....

 
In pandemic, more people choose to die at home I wonder why.... No I don't wonder why. I know why. A lot of people hate hospitals to start with and are deathly terrified of intrusive measures meant to save lives and don't want to go through things like that alone with no support and comfort from anyone they know and care about and they know genuinely cares about them. I can fully understand that and even support it, so long as others in the home don't wind up dying too,  because of this person. 

 

 

 
COVID-19: 'Pay-as-you-grow' eases business burden - but leaders says more support is needed Wondering what the terms and conditions of the repayment of lockdown loans will be here in Canada, once this is over with.

Such a sweet story.
 
Nursing Homes See Drop In COVID-19 Due To Vaccines It's nothing to cheer about here in Canada that's for sure! I'm glad though that it's working for the seniors homes in Arizona.

 

 
Once approved, Canada aiming for quick delivery of next-in-line COVID-19 vaccines  Except the bimbos at Health Canada are even slower at approving these vaccines than Pfizer and Moderna are at delivering them, if that's even physically possible because you can't get slower than a snail's pace and stopped altogether. 

 

Another one for the curious minded....
 

This is always so typical of new gov'ts to blame the old government of surprise or unmanagable problems - ones they promised to easily take care of, but suddenly upon assuming office find out it's not all that easy and quick to do so have to find someone to blame and it's usually the previous gov't. It's true all over the world when new gov'ts are suddenly faced with the facts.
 

 

Ah shaddup yo face, yo f'n money grubbing pig! Look if anyone cared about what you have to say or wanted you to run the country they'd have voted for you in that CP caucus party BS meeting but they didn't so to save face you resigned before you could lose the party vote altogether. So take a hint and get lost you big mouthed selfish money grubbing pig.
 
'Severe undercounting' of coronavirus with one in five Britons already infected, study suggests Well that must put the UK near herd immunity already doesn't it? I mean that's 20% of Brits who've had the disease naturally and how many percentage inoculated already? That must be near 50 - 60% altogether isn't it now? Or at least getting there?

 
Facebook is finally banning vaccine misinformation So when did Zuckerburg get his degree in medicine and pharmacology???? Just wondering how he'll know what's misinformation and what's accurate? Or if he's just finally capitulated to the lamestream media and gov't pressures?

 

 

 

 
Coronavirus: When will South Africa start vaccinating? Maybe when they have a vaccine that works against the SA strain?

 

Gov't propaganda.... I swear I bet even former Soviet Union citizens haven't seen as much gov't propaganda in their lives as they would have seen since the plandemic here in Canada.
 
That's scary considering they said kids didn't get it or if they did it wasn't serious. I'd say death is pretty damned serious.

That's what the plandemic planners had in mind when they started this cockamamie idea of lockdowns, to separate us all from our families, friends, support groups and ways of being - whether that was to go out partying everynight or hunting or to work everyday or what.... 
 

 
Mise en garde de Santé Canada sur les désinfectants Protegel Quebec et Hangel Canada For the English group, Health Canada has issued warnings to Protegel Quebec & Hangel Canada over their hand sanitizers. Maybe you can get more info at Health Canada.

They're very pretty. 
 
Focus on chip shortage hurting production as Japanese automakers report results Even this ties into the plandemic, believe it or not.

They should've had places like this across Canada since the start of the plandemic. 
 

 

We can't trust those ash holes in power from one minute to the next. We never know what they're going to do or declare to be illegal effective immediately 5 minutes from now. So don't dream on no more yo-yo jobs, because that's the only thing they seem to be good at.

 

 

Excuses, excuses, excuses galore! Like I said before maybe Canada should start suing their ashes off, or send a bomber with a bomb for each of those pharmaceutical factories and drop one on them. Have a REAL vaccine war and not just a pretend one or is that a Cold one? I bet Canada has a bigger Military than either Pfizer or Moderna have. So I don't know if they want to go there or not.... 

Good! Serves them right! I hope Moderna and Pfizer holds them hostage so good that all the ash holes that thought vaccine nationalism was a good idea and wanted to prevent vaccine from being sold outside the EU, gets the f'n virus and dies from it, before they get any doses off the assembly lines for themselves! But probably those self-centered selfish pigwigs (oops sorry did I say PIGwigs? I did.... Then I'm NOT sorry as I meant full well to say that instead of bigwigs) probably already had theirs the moment the batch was made and ready to be injected in someone's arms. They were probably there johnny on the spot with their sleeves all rolled up ready to get the first shots off the assembly lines, before even any of their voters had one.
 
 
 
 
Canada's terrible vaccine rollout is putting the economy at risk and we should be outraged You're right we SHOULD BE OUTRAGED BUT NOT BECAUSE OF THE ECONOMY, BUT BECAUSE OF LIVES, LIVES ARE THE REASON ANYONE SHOULD BE OUTRAGED OVER ANYTHING IN THIS PLANDEMIC Martin Pelletier!

 
Vaccine cards the next target of scammers, identity thieves, warns BBB BS! My kids had a booklet issued by the gov't since they were born to record all their vaccinations in and no one ever tried to steal it, nor anyone else's either for that matter. So that's just more hype and BS by the shovel load to do with this stupid plandemic.

And Mr. Loosey Goosey just continues to take this without any push back.....
 

 

 

I did it! Whoo Hoo! Until next time, take care & stay well....
