SUPPER CLUB - Wed, May 25th
Posted: Wed May 25, 2022 6:58 am
Good morning,
Yesterday I wandered the yard, placing the last few pieces of yard art here and there. Then watched Bill as he chainsaw'd a few things along the driveway that needed a haircut - overhanging limbs, dead branches, etc. They were starting to brush larger vehicles. After that I played in my play room and came up with a March block. Today, I hope to work on more of those. I also have some cooking to do - friends are coming for supper and we're having pizza, a salad of broccoli, bacon, cashews, mandarin oranges, and I'm not sure what all else. I've not made it before. I also plan homemade strawberry shortcake for afters.
We got a text and a few photos from our honeymooners. They got home last night but aren't announcing it to their world. they want a few quiet days at home first. I believe they both go back to work on Monday.
CAROL - enjoy your day at D-land when it comes! No one is going with you?
LORI - I've only been to Knottsberry Farm once - back in 1984, I think. I don't remember much about it. But have to say - I do love Snoopy! But then I love all the old cartoon characters. Sylvester the Cat, of course, is my own personal stand-out.
IRISH - I'm so sorry to hear you need to fridge shop. We had to do that about 2-1/2 years ago. We had a Samsung, freezer on the bottom model for 12 years and I loved it! Well, that model was no longer made, of course. So now we have another Samsung, freezer on the bottom. I hate it! We had to shop only on-line because of Covid. This model is all french doors which, turns out, are a pain in the patootie. And it's so big I can't reach the back of the top shelf. We had to remove the cabinet above it so it would fit. But I do love the bottom freezer - also french doors - with 2 drawers and a sliding shelf on each side. Makes finding things easier. Wow! Looks like it's MY day to complain! How come your sister being sick might postpone your eye procedure? Is she your ride? I'd do it! I'm experienced at driving people to/from cataract surgeries.
TINA - I saw on my weather app that you were having wind. I hope you didn't blow away! What's the update on your painting project? Is it done and I missed it?
JANA - some days I'd like to borrow your arsenic soup recipe! Monday was one of those days. If Bill feels strongly about something, he makes a small show of asking my opinion, but it doesn't matter what I say. I learned early on that there are some things (vehicles being one of those things) that there is just no use in arguing. But he would probably say the same thing about me. Except I doubt he cares much about the issues where I make the decisions. lol! Good luck with the yard. Maybe you could decide on the front and he gets the back?. . . . .
VELDA - sorry you are still not feeling well. If, after you finish your ABX and you're still feeling punk, you should probably see your doc again.
Well, I gave away my big finish - pizza, broccoli & mandarin salad, and strawberry shortcake. I think we'll get a take'n'bake pizza. and if it's a nice evening, we'll sit and eat outside by the fire. If not, we'll eat inside by the fire.
And what can we get for you?
