TGIF late 11-1-13
Comments (5)Congrats indeed Diane! I think I have gained 7 of the lbs you lost :-( Definitely time for me to get back into a walking/running routine. This darn work thing keeps getting in the way of doing important stuff. Linda, good for you for having all the gardens tucked in for the winter... I still need to do a lot of clean-up, maybe tomorrow. Annie - sending Happy Birthday wishes to all - sounds like a lot of fun celebrating this weekend! John - good luck with the sushi lessons! It is Breeder's Cup weekend, and I think younger son and I will go to the track to watch a couple of live races and a few simulcast ones on Saturday. Sunday a local celeb/jazz guitarist is back from his long summer tour so we may go listen to some kicking jazz/blues at a local restaurant/pub. Or we may just stay home and watch football - I am fine with either! Not a lot planned in the way of cooking this weekend, I have some apples that need to be used, thinking of trying my hand at pie.... again. Other than that - figuring out what to do with 20+lbs of Halloween Candy. The kids are off school on Monday and Tuesday so it is truly a long weekend for the boys. Alexa...See MoreTGIF Bloom Bonanza
Comments (13)Wow. That's one nice looking Clematis Edward. Clematis season has long since passed here (except for the yet to bloom but invasive Sweet Autumn Clematis). The hybrid Clematis leaves around town look pretty bad by now from their exposure to our summer heat and various fungal diseases. Your climate sure suites that vine beautifully and again that pairing with Vertical Horizon is a great combination...........Maryl...See MoreTGIF!!!! What's up for your weekend?
Comments (38)I am ready for a nap just reading of all your plans. My weekend so far has been quite glamorous. I dropped Mom at the hairdresser. Today was Perm Day so I had a couple extra hours. I went through the car wash, got gas and returned a pan to BB&B. Then I came home and continued the ultra-glam job of scrubbing the kitchen floor. The grout was filthy. God, I hate that floor with a red hot passion.Then back to retrieve Mom. She smelled like ammonia. I swear I am going to start a blog about that hairdresser and all the riotous elderly patrons. Since the Californians are coming to visit soon, (bro and DS #1), I am trying to get the place straightened up. Never ends. Jakabedy, sounds like we are having the same sort of day. I also bought some tickets on a whim, to hear Mika Brzezinski and her mother, who is a noted sculptor, speak. I have to give the plants a good soak. My grass is now crunchy, it has been so dry. I even watered a young tree the other day. It's a Redbud and I don't want to lose it. And the rest of the weekend is pretty much the same. My two closest friends are away so I have no playmates. Earlier this week I made the drive from Philadelphia, to Portsmoth NH for the night, then Boothbay Harbor Maine. The return trip was Boothbay to Andover MA for the night, then home. My eyes felt like two burned cigarette holes when I pulled in my driveway. Saw one bad accident that put the fear of God in me, although there are still the idiots out there. Lots of backups along the way, too. I could not believe the traffic trying to get on the Tappan Zee going the opposite way from me. I'd have turned around and gone home....See MoreTGIF What's for dinner?
Comments (0)I will jump in and help with the dinner threads but I warn y'all I have a terrible memory about coming back! So I am sure everyone is having a wonderful meal. Tonight I am cooking a pot of fresh okra stewed with onions and tomatoes, one of our all time favorite things. A very nice neighbor has too much okra and I am glad to help him out by taking as much as he will give me! In the oven I have 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts with cut up baby red potatoes and cut up farm store carrots, seasoned well and drizzled with olive oil nicely roasting away. It is smelling wonderful in here. OK what's cookin!...See MoreUser
