SUPPER CLUB - Tuesday, June 13th
Posted: Tue Jun 13, 2023 6:48 am
Good morning,
We were 80* yesterday - MUCH cooler today. And cloudy. A "marine layer" it's called. Kind of refreshing. I might work in the yard for a few hours after our morning appt in Tacoma with our attorney to sign some papers. And I might start the Aug OWL block. Lots of options to choose from today.
JANA - close call with the lightening bolt! Bet you're happy now you have surge protectors! We do, too, though during storms we do unplug everything anyway, just to be safe. We have a surger protector in our trailer, too, that has saved us a few times when we've encountered faulty wiring in RV parks. Your pizza party sounds fun! My massage therapist built a big brick pizza oven in his back yard and had a party to christen it. All the guests built their own personal pizzas and he slid them into the oven on a big pizza paddle and we could watch them cook through a peephole in the oven. You could build a pizza oven outside too - a summer project! It'll be fun!
BECCA - I would prefer doing my own laundry, too. I'd probably do my sheets and towels as well, but nice to have the option to send them out.
LORI - your quilt is fun! I love the colors! Someone will love it. I have made backs like that, too, to use up leftover fabrics.
I think tonite I'll make French Country Chicken and Rice - a recipe I found in the BC One-pot/Casserole Cookbook I got at Goodwill a few weeks ago. If I have chicken. I need to check the freezer. And a salad. If there's no chix around I guess I'll look for another recipe and get back to you on that.
Any thoughts yet on what you are having?

He runs back in for a gun but it was across the street at our mailbox just sitting there watching us. He got in his truck after it but it stayed just ahead of him and was circling back around to come back for Winnie. It was a scary, stressful, watchful heartbreaking couple if hours. He ended up taking her to the garage so he could bury her the next day. That mountain lion had to have been out there when the kids were, watching them which petrified us just thinking about it. It has us pretty freaked out. The next day I called Frankie's niece and nephew to let them know and his niece has been having cats disappear the last 2 to 3 weeks, she's missing at least 13 cats, they're fixed barn cats that she has because of snakes and stuff. She noticed some weren't coming up for food and then realized just 2 days before how many she's actually missing. This thing has been really feasting on cats for a few weeks now. I sent a message to our federal/ state trapper who've we've known forever and asked him if he could come do something about it. Not sure what he has to do first but he said yes. We had a bunch of deer come through last night when Frankie was closing the chickens up for the night, they just watched him and didn't run away and they weren't very far away from him. I can't figure why that cat wasn't going after the deer.
