SUPPER CLUB - Friday, April 22nd
Posted: Fri Apr 22, 2022 6:58 am
Good morning,
We are dry today! Well, most of the day. Even the flowers are hesitant to poke their cheery heads out, this spring is, so far, cold and wet. Our camping weather - Sunday thru next Thursday - will only be 50* and 50-70% rain every day. Sigh. Guess I better take my sewing machine.
Yesterday was long lunch out with Bill's sis and DBIL and it counted as supper. I had a burger and Bill had F--- & chips. Then we stopped at Costco on our way home. Our bill there was only $39! The least we have ever paid! But we needed a couple items for camping and for tonite - friends coming for H.H. I got some frozen taquitoes, and today I'm going to devil some eggs and also have a tray of veggies and horseradish dip. And green olives. I think I finally finished my closet/dresser clean-out. Four tall kitchen trash bags full of clothes I no longer wear or that don't fit. Yay! We also have a big box of household items to go away - vases, muffin tin, and about 15 baseball caps. (Bill had almost 30!)
Today I will start putting my penguins together. Last night I hand-stitched my label for A&A's DWR wedding quilt so I need to put a few finishing touches on that today, as well.
VELDA - when you quilt and do SITD, do you use a special foot for it? I don't have a walking foot but I do have a foot that sort of skims down the 'ditch', parting the fabric like Moses and the Red Sea. My SITD got a whole lot better when I got that foot! Ican't remember the name of it off-hand but I have a Bernina and it's the #10 foot. Glad you had little reaction to the booster, though they say a reaction is a good sign that the vaccine is effective.
BECCA - I'm glad you got to have your time with your friends, even if she wasn't able to converse as in the past. And whew! Found the phone! I just read a news article yesterday about a woman who dropped hers in an outhouse up in the mountains here in WA. She fell in HEAD FIRST trying to get it back! She used the phone to call 911 when she couldn't get out. I was amazed it worked! But she found her phone!
JANA - I bet you were wore out yesterday! You really had a day! Kids are definitely for the young! Though after watching Drew alone I think it was much easier when Alec came along. They played together and the pressure was off us! lol! Did you ever get your basement floor in? I can't remember. What's wrong with my rememberer??
CAROL - Sorry you have another 2 weeks of steroid ointment. I should probably do that, too. I'm truying to get by with the non-steroid cream.Dr.said use the steroid on weekends if I needed it and come back in a year - sooner if necessary. Since it's 60 miles of 4 different freeway and AWFUL traffic, I can guarantee it won't be necessary! How is your other owie doing? I remember having a small toy tractor and log truck when I was little. I played for hours making roads in the dirt. And yes, I made engine noises!
LORI - I lied to you yesterday. We are going to the ocean but I told you the wrong campground. We're going to Grayland Beach St. Pk. near Westport/Aberdeen, which is further north up the coast and only 2 hours away from home instead of 3 hrs. Bill and I make a good team - I remember the dates we're going and he remembers the campground where we're going.
Well, since we're happy-houring with our buddies tonite, our supper will be the deviled eggs, taquitos, veggies, and olives. Happy hour here means about 4-6pm~ish. Everyone is home in jammies by 6:30.
What's going on your plate tonite?
