SUPPER CLUB - Sunday, Feb 27
Posted: Sun Feb 27, 2022 6:15 am
Good morning,
We've warmed up a bit but now have rain. Lots of it and lots more on the way this week. But it will make for a green spring! I already have a few daffodils blooming in the yard. Yay for that! St Patrick's day is only 2-1/2 weeks away!
Yesterday we got the garage cleaned. I have so many plant and flower pots I will never use them all. So, next nice day I'm going to take them outside with a big tub of soapy water and scrub them up, choose ones to keep, and get rid of the rest. Things are moved so the electrician, if he ever shows up, will have easy access to the electrical stuff and when that job is done, the pots and pot shelf will go back in place. (we have more in-house moving to do for him but that will wait until we get actual dates for the work to be done.)
Bill also got the next quilt half quilted and I did some playing around with Cathedral Windows. Soon, I'll find the pattern I like best, purrfect it, and start cutting and prepping the little windows. Though really, I should probably finish my hexie project before starting a whole new thing. But today will be mostly laundry and I'll make a binding and label for this next quilt that will likely come off the frame today. Only three more tops to go!
VELDA - glad the air fryer worked for your pizza. Was it homemade, half-homemade, or purchased frozen? We reheated leftover pizza in ours yesterday and that worked out really well. Much better than microwave. I'm loving that spring is just 3 weeks away!!
TINA - do you think you'll get your east side done this week? We were just remarking a few days ago that we rarely see Irish Setters any more, not since they were the rage after the movie Big Red. But in the last 4 days we've seen 2 of them plus a bumper sticker that says "I ❤ Irish Setters". Maybe they are making a comeback. I love them and would have one in a heartbeat, but I have one big stumbling block here named Bill. But then I'd also have a husky, lab, golden, german shepherd, collie, and more shelties so maybe Bill's right to keep me reined in. I love all the big dogs.
BECCA - I didn't realize you couldn't do steps yet. From your hip fracture? You've talked about stairs in your house so I'm going to assume your bedroom is on the first floor. Our next house will not be having any steps! If we ever have a next house. I've been here 36 years and we have no plans to move until we can't do stairs or take care of the place ourselves any longer.
CAROL - well, next week, if it's warmer, will be more crowded at Disney so maybe you made the right choice after all by going when you did.
I'm still mulling over supper. I have a ham I could bake with some sweet potatoes. And while they are in the oven I could roast a medly of veggies - broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, & onions. I'm sure if I mentioin that to Bill he'll think he's died and gone to supper heaven!

. I got up this morning 
and made some eggs and biscuits straight away. My plan is to continue working on lotto blocks and Easter blocks while listening to Church service. Supper tonight will be at Texas Roadhouse. It's one of my friends birthday. Some of my other friends and I are having a birthday party
