SUPPER CLUB - Thursday, Aug 11th
Posted: Thu Aug 11, 2022 6:30 am
Good morning,
Last night we had owls. And a barking dog. And a coyote. At least the coyote was quiet. He sneaked through between our house and Vicki's about 3:30. We only saw him on the security camera. We're popular with coyotes because we have chickens living on our north side and lots of rats on our south side (Vicki's). We have been making sure Foxy is in at night!
Our temp will be 80* today but going to 90* next week when all the family is here. They won't be happy. They've been looking forward to the "cool PNW temps", and our cooler temps will be moving to CO while they are here in 90*! Kind of funny. To me, anyway.
Yesterday I sewed a bit. I have 11 of 36 6" leaf blocks made. The rest are cut out. Most of today is going to be devoted to uglies but I'm sure I'll get a few more blocks made. We went to lunch with Bill's sis and her DH. A great visit with them. Bill had Ick & Chips and I had a turkey club. We both brought half our orders home for supper so no cooking last night.
IRISH - I am SOO glad you posted! You almost made me come back there! Happy to hear you are feeling better if not top notch yet. Kathy's visit will be good for you, but don't overdo! How is Tim? I can't believe your little Emma is already 3 yrs old! Please give your sister a hug for me and thank her for the message she sent when you were so sick. We were worried about you.
LORI - I Googled Infrognito. What a cute quilt of frogs!
CAROL - Betty Crocker is still my go-to. I have 2 3-ft shelves full of cookbooks but it's always Betty I go to. And occasionally my old 1965 Home-Ec text book. I don't use prepared mixes much, but they are handy for camping or emergencies.
JANA - I always dread hemming stuff, but I have to say, the hemming stitch on my machine works well. The problem here is always operator error. Wishing YOU luck with Michael's eye test today!
My supper plan is to make pesto pasta- finally. Maybe. Hopefully. I'm not sure that homemade sauce from our Boondocker is still good, but if not, I can do my own.
What's your plan?
