Last week seemed to fly by. DD had riding lessons. We drove north to visit my mother who was hospitalized following surgery. On the way, we passed the first corn harvesting I’ve seen this fall. And Saturday was apple butter day. The last two kettles were canned at the same time in an effort to […]
It’s Monday again, and time for Menu Plan Monday. I’m trying to keep it simple this week. We’ve had some trouble with the fridge, so I’m not planning on items I can’t keep in the freezer or the cooler. Hopefully the repairman (who is here now) will have it fixed today. Last Monday night, there […]

It’s time for Menu Plan Monday. Monday eat out Tuesday order pizza Wednesday Rosemary Mustard Grilled Chicken coleslaw corn on the cob tomatoes / […]
I haven’t done much outside during the past week or so, but here are a few pictures of the yard. Autumn is creeping in. This tired fellow fluttered around the same spot on the pampas grass for a long time. Looks like he had a run in with a bird. I’m not sure he’ll make […]

Yesterday, company came over to visit for a few days. A dear friend I haven’t seen in probably 25 years. It is so good to see her again, to reminisce about college days, compare time lines of our lives since then, etc. We’re having a wonderful time. She’ll be here until tomorrow morning. So I’m […]
School starts this week, so the menu has to take that, and several meetings and lessons, into account. DD and I are going to make Honey Peanut Butter Cookies this afternoon. I think the protein laden cookies will be nice for a quick it’s-the-first-day-of-school-and-we-need-to-hurry breakfast snack, along with some fresh strawberries and bananas. Later in […]
I’ve been either too busy or too tired to post lately. Been very busy. But I’ll try to get back into the swing of things now. Here’s the menu for the week. Monday hamburger / buns grapes Tuesday crock pot chicken rice stir fried green and yellow squash tomatoes Wednesday pork chops mashed potatoes green […]
Can’t resist showing you Buttercup’s new costume, designed by DD. Who’s the coolest cat around? That would be Buttercup, the rapper cat, complete with bling! I must say, besides being totally cool, Buttercup is totally patient! She takes it all in stride. Monday hamburgers / buns chips / dip grapes Tuesday spaghetti / sauce garlic […]
We said goodbye to DH and his family very early Saturday morning. I’m going to miss them all, but especially these little faces. ::sigh:: But back to the subject at hand…the week’s menu. Monday Roast beef (leftovers from Sunday dinner) homemade rolls veggies / dip Tuesday tortellini homemade rolls green beans cauliflower / broccoli / […]
