I’m late getting the menu posted this week. We were gone most of the day…went to Missouri to visit a nursery there. Wine Country Gardens. They have a few daylilies… So we were busy. 🙂 But we’re home now and I need to post this soon. Monday Eat out Tuesday Spaghetti and homemade sauce Garlic […]
Yesterday afternoon, DH and I drove north to visit with my parents and two of my sisters. We took Dad out to eat, in celebration of Father’s Day. We sat at the restaurant for an hour and a half. A good visit and some interesting talk with Dad about his passion, Civil War history. On […]
It’s hot and humid outside, but the garden is a blaze of glorious color and it’s impossible to stay inside when the daylilies are in full bloom. My choices for the menu are easy-to-make ones. Pizza Hut is a special request from DD#1 who will be leaving this week for a summer in NY. Chicken […]
Daylily season is here and we are spending every possible moment in the yard. While the daylilies call from the garden, our menus will contain a lot of quick and easy food. The exception to that general rule is tonight. Yesterday afternoon, DH and I drove to my niece’s house and picked up ten chickens […]
Happy Memorial Day! I hope you had some meaningful celebrations as well as some fun today. This morning, DH took his mother to the cemeteries and she enjoyed being at Old Salem for the Memorial Day service. This afternoon, we got outside for a bit and I took a lot of garden pictures. I’ll post […]
My side of the family came yesterday to celebrate my Dad’s birthday. And my birthday. And other family May birthdays. 🙂 All my sibs were here with bits and pieces of their families. With so many family members (and some living across the ocean) it is hard to get everyone here at the same time. […]
The church picnic was great, as usual. Yes, we had great food and the weather cleared up for the party, which was also great. But it’s our church family and friends that make the day wonderful. As usual. 🙂 Thanks to all who came! Sadly, no pictures. If anyone took pics and would like to […]
After several delays caused by car trouble, the girls finally made it home Saturday evening, safe and sound. Just in time for Mother’s Day! 🙂 DH did some surprise shopping and brought home the ingredients for my favorite Mother’s Day meal…grilled chicken, veggie packets, and corn on the cob. So good! Veggies packets are marked […]
We’ve watched the irises coming on strong during the past week. So many need to be lifted and reset, but right now, we’re just enjoying the beautiful blooms. The work of revitalizing them will wait for another time. …..’Clarence’…………………………………..’Celtic Prince’……………………….’Kevin’s Theme’….. This week, our two older daughters are moving home after almost three years in […]
