Chicken, Market Day, and Hello...


Good morning, Friends...
Well, another week has flown by.  I think I blinked twice, and it was gone!  Yet again, we weren't all that busy.
Larry did some grilling (I really should get back out there and re-familiarize myself with the grill) of some really tasty chicken thighs.
My sister Ruth Ann goes in for her last chemo this coming Monday (17th).  A new plan will be discussed about needing more chemo or if she's totally done with that part of treatment.  There's also the plans for re-attaching her colon and doing away with the colostomy bag (hopefully!) to be discussed.  We have no idea at this point.  Just praying the cancer is gone (the oncologist says it is) and stays gone!



Chicken thighs



We decided we'd jump in the car and travel south to our favorite country meat market, Green's Sausage House.  Usually, at this time of the year, we'd see different crops in the fields...corn, maize, cotton, wheat.  But, to our surprise...there was nothing but corn in the fields!  Nothing...just miles and miles of...corn.  Anyone know why this is?  We don't...
Curious...


 

We finally make it to Green's.  SO many different choices....They constantly stay busy and we never venture to the market on a Saturday!  Too busy for us!




The back yard is starting to fill back in nicely...All that burnt up last season grass, is being taken over by the new grass seed Larry spread out, several months ago.  The roses I planted are growing great...new growth on them all.  They are a bit spindly...so I'll need to prune them back in February.  I'm not sure if I can do it sooner here in the South.



A while back, I decided I'd had enough of fluoride in my toothpaste.  You hear so many bad things about all the commercial toothpaste being caustic and full of cancer-causing fluoride.  Well, I decided to finally change products!   Instead of Crest I found (after a lot of research) a product called Hello.  Oh my goodness!  What a difference!  The taste of mint is very mild and pleasant...you get none of that tingly burning feeling (not a good thing!) in your mouth that those other paste give you!  And you don't get all that foam!  So messy...  
I found Hello at Walmart.
I may be 71 but it's never too late!





Lol...


Our sweetpea, Sloane... (greatgran)


 

Sloaneygirl  and Gampa, having a heart-to-heart
 chat...lol





Larry and I laughed at this one...too true, for us! lol





Meatloaf for lunch yesterday.  Larry put Sweet Baby Ray's instead of catsup on top.  He put a bit too much on it, but I didn't say anything...hey!  If your man is cooking, you take one for the team!  I secretly did a little scraping without him noticing...and smiled... lolol
Hoping this finds you all happy and content.  So...until next time...
