SUPPER CLUB - Friday, Oct 28th
Posted: Fri Oct 28, 2022 6:06 am
Good rainy morning,
Well, I guess I should be more careful what I wish for - Rain! We've got it! It sounds kind of nice on the roof. And all our trees and shrubs are springing back to life. Yay, Rain!
Last night we went out to eat with Tex & Annette. The restaurant did make me a chicken alfredo even though there is no chicken on the menu, and it sounded so good that Annette asked for the same thing. I sent a $5 tip back to the lady who made it for us. She was grateful to be appreciated. Then we came back here and we gave Annette her birthday present - Shit-Tzu-opoly game. They are big Shit-Tzu fans and have two of them. It was a funky, fun game but as any Monopoly game goes, it did go on for a long time - way past my bedtime - and we eventually called it. Next time we'll play my Cat-opoly game. (I also have Wine-opoly and Quilt-opoly, Christmas-opoly, Seattle-opoly, regular Monopoly, and the WWII version of Monopoly with different wooden markers. You'd think I'd play more.
In sewing news, I've just been puttering with my projects that I've kitted up for travel, checking and cutting fabrics, fusing the bits that I can. Trying to cut down on bulk as space in the trailer is limited. Today I'm going to lunch with two elderly friends. Mexican. So that will be most of my day from about 11 to 3. Funny, my sister texted that she is going to lunch with two elderly ladies, too! Though in her case, at 80 (in 3 weeks) she is the most elderly. lol!
TINA - glad you and the Covid patients are all feeling better but sorry you dad is feeling queasy. You might encourage him to try ginger, mint, Coke, or milk to help with nausea. Sometimes, any of these might help. Yes, Scottie's cone complicates everything around here, not just eye meds. I've put away things that I can that he kept banging into. But I can't move the walls, doors, or dining room table. lol! Poor dog.
CAROL - ahhh - the basting makes sense now. You explained it very well. Thanks! When you said machine baste, I was picturing regular sewing machine and my machine's basting stitch would be a pain to pick out later. But super long stitches that you can just pull out would work for me.
BECCA - how did your dental appt go? I HATE crowns. Little Brodee is certainly a trooper. Can Mom or Dad stay with him in the hospital? Covid has changed all the rules. And how is Levi doing with his knee?
No cooking again tonite. I have leftover chicken alfredo, but tonite I'll probably have leftover Mexican, too. I guess that will be enough for the two of us. I can always make a salad to go with.
What's the supper story at your house?
