A Friendly PSA

I'm trying really hard to change my attitude about all this. It's not easy. I don't know how I'll do, but for now...okay.

First PSA: I bought a boatload of onions because...onions. Most of my meals begin with onions, garlic and peppers. We've been freezing peppers for years, to save the crop His Lordship grows as well as to have readily on hand. Well. Those onions were already starting to turn. This has never happened before and His Lordship opined that they were the "old" onions that were being put out. Maybe. So I cut them up and put them in freezer bags and froze them. Et viola! Onions whenever I need them.

Second PSA: We watch Youtube vids. Mostly home improvement stuff, woodworking stuff and we found this really cool one called "Ask a Mortician". I know I've mentioned her before; Caitlin Dougherty. Kids...you need to watch the latest one. It will make you sad, but it might reduce the panic. Seriously. Watch her. She's awesome and awe inspiring.

Hang tough my peeps! We can, we will ABIDE!!!

We can actually buy bags of chopped or sliced red or white onions in the local supermarket, and if they are reduced because it is the end of the day I buy them, too, and put them in the freezer - that is the ultimate lazy way to do it!

I used to buy frozen raw onions when the kids were at home so I'd have quick dinners. Got out of that habit, maybe I need to get back into it!

I just cut up a bunch of peppers to freeze too.
