Good Morning Friends...Figured I'd best do a little check-in! Again, I've been absent for longer than I'd meant to be.... Keeping busy with Larry's Dad's estate...selling the shop buildings...shopping for Larry a new truck...planning to get the house painted...working on another quilt for our daughter, Crystal...getting Sloane's quilt top back from the longarm lady, hopefully soon...church...hunting down a good landscaper to get new hedges in the front yard in February...We are just too old to get out in the yard and dig those deep holes! At least five of them?! I'm thinking Sage. They bloom and you can get the compact size.
Sami and Everett took the greatgrans to the Fair & Rodeo. Took Sloane by the Parakeet enclosure... Sloane is a country girl...but I seriously doubt she's ever been this up-close and personal with one...Lol...bless my sweet Babygirl.
She did calm down and ended up having a fun time.
I don't think Lottie cared...lol
Yep...happens often! lol
Well...after 50 years...we get a completely new road in front of the house! We were really tired of all the drainage problems and potholes.
Working on putting together the quilt for daughter Crystal...
This is a trend on TikTok. Know what? It actually worked! And it was delicious...Sheet pan Pancakes. Recipe
I always add powdered sugar and lemon juice! We learned about this years ago in Germany. Delicious.
Larry made Shepard's Pie...seriously good.
After church, we ate at The Brazos Landing on the Brazos River. Pricey but delicious.
It was a bit too chilly to sit outside...we've been getting rain...that and being windy doesn't really do it for me...lol
Me...
Larry had Jambalaya and I played it safe with Chicken Frien Steak.
We could only eat half of what they brought out, on our plates! It's going to be our lunch again today.
I made a Cornish hen sometime last week...
And made a meal of Rice & Tomatoes with Butter.
We love this!
Finally...lol...We had several meetings to attend so once again, we ate out. Fish and shrimp...broccoli casserole with mashed potatoes did the trick.
Well...I guess you need a serious break after all that! And I suppose the sewing machine is calling my name.
Be safe out there...be aware of your surroundings. For my American friends, I don't know how much longer this shutdown is going to go on so I hope you are all prepared.
So...until next time...
