This and That.

S is coming home tomorrow.YAY!
Doll Baby is leaving for Tel Aviv. I wish I could say I was going with her but she has 11 hours on a *cough cough* AIRPLANE or AEROPLANE. (to me the latter spelling is too fancy smancy ) I don't want to look un-ed- you-MA-cated in front of the youngin'...LOL!

I'm not going to ramble on about my "new"(as of 6 years ago)fear of flying.
I hope she has a wonderful time and brings me back something nice... something REAL nice.*snickers*

The weather has been warmer but with the warmth comes the rain.
I did go back to the grocery store and I actually bought some meat because E said "lets try something new tonight" I said"ok, like what?" she said "MEAT?" ha ha ha Bless her heart.
I oven fried( olive oil of course) pork chops, jasmine rice, a Swedish brown sauce she loves,shredded carrots, a rocket salad and garlic bread.The sauce is actually called Brunsås(brown sauce).

E and I have a couple garden projects we are working on and she wants to convert her old club house to a funky new hip one.We'll see how that goes.

Saturday...

Today is the first day in two weeks we could go outside WITHOUT wearing a jacket.
I hope this heat wave of 64f holds a few days.

You are NOT suppose to be cold in JULY!!!

I'm in a cooking rut.I went to the grocery store and could not decide what to buy.(I try to plan a few days ahead because you all know how I feel about grocery shopping) I ended up getting fruit,cookies,crackers and some ice cream but I ate the ice cream on the way home.

One more thing,If you stop by my blog please leave me a message.. I would love to hear from YOU!

Summer?

I was out walking with my sweetheart and took the picture you see on my header. It is just beside one of our barns.

The beautiful flowers are a stark reminder that it IS in fact summer.While the temperatures the past few days would beg to differ. They have hovered around 54-55f for several days now. I guess I shouldn't complain especially when Dollbaby tells me it's been 105f in Texas the past few days.

Almost finished.



The counter tops,floor and sinks are in.This has been a long 6 weeks and I am so thankful it's almost over. The electrician is coming next week to hook up the stove and add a cool new light over the bar area, Especially for Doll baby in hopes of her coming back to visit me this winter.
She complained there was not enough light in the kitchen. There will be now Miss smartypants.

Sorry

I know I have been neglecting my blog lately.
It has been so hectic around here with the kitchen repairs/remodel. It's been slow going because we have had to take extra precautions removing boards and drying out wet ones(we had major water damage) due to E's allergies.What should have taken 2 weeks has taken us about 6.The industrial fans were a no go because they caused dust particle to float about causing her to have respiratory problems.
There is a light at the end of the tunnel because the contractors are coming bright and early in the morning to finish up.YAY!

I'll let ya know how it goes.
