Subj : SpringHasSprung,RiverRiz To : Nancy Backus From : Barry Martin Date : Wed May 06 2020 10:09:00 Hi Nancy! BM>>> Locally the Mississippi River is two feet over flood stage (message BM>> current tracking is 2-3" for here but 10" in SE Iowa. NB>> As long as it stays away from the River....? BM> Oddly true! :) NB> Don't give the flooding any fuel... ;) Right: don't really need any more financial troubles around here: last year flood-related closures and damages; this year COVID-19-related issues creating two years in a row problems. BM> Last I heard the River is back within it's banks and the flood BM> barricades have been removed. (Wonder if they used the reusable BM> ones?) NB> Hope they're keeping them handy, just in case.... :) Quite sure they are! Not uncommon to flood so do need to be prepared. NB>> ... Cooking tip: Wrap leftover turkey in aluminum foil and throw NB>> it out BM> We've wrapped and/or stored in freezer containers and then BM> had a month or two later. NB> I don't follow that tip, either... we tend to have it over the NB> course of the next week or so... no need to freeze for later.... NB> and I'd just as soon not throw away food.... ;) I'm not a big fan of having the same meal the following night; a one night interval is sufficient. The mega-Turkey at Christmas is an expected exception. As for throwing out, that's almost a sin! ¯ ® ¯ Barry_Martin_3@ ® ¯ @Q.COM ® ¯ ® .... Books to Read! "Bull Fighting" by Matt A.
