Rare jpalbny Posted April 20, 2020 #4077 Share Posted April 20, 2020 (edited) No mistake here, Spins. That's what we had for dinner yesterday: The one with prosciutto, arugula and fontina cheese went with a sparkling rosé: This one had peppers, mushrooms, a touch of hot sausage, and fresh mozzarella. It went with a Nero d'Avola. No leftovers. And both wine bottles ran dry too. Is there an equivalent term for "accidentally" finishing both bottles? 😊 Edited April 20, 2020 by jpalbny 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare spinnaker2 Posted April 20, 2020 #4078 Share Posted April 20, 2020 (edited) As I have come to learn that DH and I are in the expendable group, we are enjoying some great dinners. But regrettably, I seem to have lost my sense of smell and taste. JP your food looks stunning. Edited April 20, 2020 by spinnaker2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great looking food from J.P. Hope all is well and healthy for Spins and DH. For Lois, been seeing on TV about the beaches near Jacksonville opening up. From the video views, it seems that most people are keeping reasonable distances and not being grouped too closely together. Right? Nice and sunny, high of 61F today in Central Ohio. Enjoyable. Saw a great-looking red fox right above our patio and waterfall this afternoon. But, sorry, I was on the phone and could not grab my camera quick enough to capture a picture. Maybe the next time? Cute fox!! THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio Venice: Loving It & Why??!! Is one of your future desires or past favorites? See these many visual samples for its great history and architecture.

Rare spinnaker2 Posted April 20, 2020 #4081 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Lois DH had to have surgery last Tuesday. He's fine now. I did not go into hospital. I am ok other than the wonky loss of taste and smell. Thanks for asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch those symptoms as the CDC states a loss of smell and taste could be a sign of the Covid-19 virus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lois R Posted April 20, 2020 #4086 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Hi Spins, I must have missed that post...…...hope he recovers quickly. Terry, The Government around here (local and state) sucks. I have not been sleeping well at all lately....waking up multiple times in the night......not sure if it is all the stress or not. Decided to buy some sleep aid and maybe it will help. I end up napping 1/2 the day because not very much at night..….I don't like feeling this way but it has happened multiple times over the past week.

Rare spinnaker2 Posted April 20, 2020 #4087 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Lois I too am sleeping poorly. Lots of nightmares. I attribute it to the stress of this experience. And I don't think I posted about DH. So you couldn't have known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silkismom Posted April 21, 2020 #4089 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I use Tylenol PM, it really helps for me, especially if I take it about an hour before going to bed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the suggestion. I went to CVS and bought something called ZZZZZZZ by Nyquil. I have some extra strength Tylenol in the house but will remember the PM part. The ZZZZZZZZ is a liquid.

You could take just the Benadryl (or generic) since it is the drug that helps you sleep and is usually a lot cheaper. You can always take Tylenol with it is needed.

I keep Benadryl on the nightstand for when allergies keep me from sleeping, works very well for that. Understand about the stress & bad dreams, me too.

Rare jpalbny Posted April 21, 2020 #4096 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I eat pistachio nuts before bed. They taste great and the melatonin is a bonus. Makes me sleep like a baby, unless I"m on call. Benadryl will definitely put you to sleep too, and it's probably cheaper by the pound than pistachios. Spins, hope that's all the symptoms that you have. Ageusia/anosmia are not specific for Covid-19. Simple congestion from allergies or a common cold can often cause those symptoms. Come to think of it, benadryl might work for that too! 😉 Enjoying a Magellan Gin with Fever Tree Elderflower tonic before bed tonight. The taste and the aroma are delicious. Thinking of splurging for a Hendrick's Midsummer Solstice Gin for my next bottle. Good night all! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myster and I splurged on a bottle of the Midsummer Solstice Gin earlier this year. We enjoyed it very, very much. None left and our Ontario Liquor Control Board has 6 bottles left for delivery to our local store. We may decide to splurge again depending on how we come to losing our minds. 🤪 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
