SUPPER CLUB - Saturday, June 18th
Posted: Sat Jun 18, 2022 6:10 am
Good morning,
It's been quiet here lately. We've had cool, rainy weather so not much going on outside. Not for me, anyway. Bill's been working on trailer wheel bearings and brakes but we park our trailer under a metal shelter so he is protected from weather. He's found the problem with the trailer brakes and parts are on their way so he can make repairs. I'm so grateful that he has skills!
As for me - I finished my Irish Chain top and posted a photo. Then we ran a few errands and I got a pile of silk flowers for our deck pots. The squirrels keep digging out my real flowers. When we got home I made binding for the IC and today I'm going to make a set of pillowcases to go with. Then I'll clean up the green/white mess and see what other trouble I can get into. By Tuesday our weather should be good enough to go back outside and start in on yard work again.
JANA - congratulations to Kate on passing that exam! I hope that extra certification brings extra $$. Is her sister that had the baby the bridezilla of a few years ago? How long does it take to make those blocks? 41 thread changes!! Oh my!
CAROL - oh, I LOVE mac & cheese. I don't make it very often though - maybe twice a year. I will eat the whole dish! I told my sisters when they visit in August, I've been planning entertainment for them. And one day is relining all my kitchen cabinets and drawers. lol! I was joking with them, but this is actually something they would love to do, so I may have to let them.
TINA - sorry for your high temps. Is the reunion going to be outside? I hope it's EARLY! How far is the "original farmhouse" from you? Does someone in the family live there still? Glad that snake wasn't poisonous. Ugh! Glad you found the eagle cam. The three eaglets are called Sixteen, Seventeen, and Eighteen. Because that is the number of eaglets these parents have produced over the years. Next year's firstborn will be called "Nineteen".
LORI - You really keep busy! What are your block party blocks for your guild like?
I think we'll grill burgers tonite. It's only going to be 62* today but it's not supposed to rain so I think we'll be out on the deck at least long enough to grill. Bill can decide if we're going to have fries, beans, or salad on the side. But just one. We can't eat more than that.
