Dark and gloomy out there now with intermittent thunder so I believe the forecast may change to 100% soon.
Need to fold the laundry that's sitting in the laundry room, clean yesterday's cat bowls, feed the cats, and ... take a nap? Didn't sleep as well as I would have liked and the evil cats got me up too early, as usual.
Thursday was off and on rainy
There was no real thunder, just off and on rain, some of the time only a spritz, other times the sky opened up.
Laundry, Today or tomorrow here.
Before anything else later on today, a Run to CostCo for Kleenex, Frozen Vegetables and some sort of fruit to be determined based on price and what looks really good.
By the way, I looked at a Whole Foods receipt, I had taken one of their bags with me and the receipt shows "Bag Refund" BYO Bag NE on the next line -$0.10
Have a Nice Day

Hi ValerieGardenKatGardens wrote: »About the time you think the sky is all cried out....the rumbles begin again and here comes the rain! My rain gauge is full. There was room for an inch and a half more rain yesterday...today it over flows!
Sounds like our weather, The brook I walked past today was higher than usual.
Sometimes You just can not do it. I have looked at the weather forecast for the next few days and overnight lows in the mid + 70s with high humidity do not make for good walking. I may only get as far as picking up coffee and boomeranging back home as a result.That Romesco sauce looks and sounds delicious. I will have to have a go at making some. Would be a welcomed addition to my veggies!
I did not make it to the gym today..and I seriously doubt I"ll make it yet tonite! I never could work up enough steam to even consider it. Dark, gray, rainy, good day for staying home. It will mess with my FitBit stats, but who cares???
Toys R Us closing. Sad for kids. I used to take Nate there in the fall, He'd ride in the cart, and I'd pay attention to what he was looking at. Made Christmas shopping for Nate quite easy!!!
Ok, I'm hungry...OH..BEFORE THAT I made some killer French Fries today. I keep seeing people singing the praises of baking fries using cooked potatoes! Sounds weird, right. Except it really is good. I make 'steak fries' with an Idaho baked potato that I nuked yesterday. Cut it in wedges, put it in the toaster oven on broil and they were great. Crispy on the outside, and soft and hot on the inside. Next time I'll make MORE! I only had half a largish potato. Need to do a whole potato.
Now, still hungry...need to go find food! I do have a salad already made, but I want a hot dinner.
Later...
The changing buying habits are causing many businesses to rethink or go under sadly.
Just curious, Have You ever considered taking those Steak Fries and Battering them before cooking. The way You cooked Your wedges is more or less how my brother does them, cooked in the oven on a lightly oiled pan covered with Aluminum Foil.
Have a Good Day

Howdy y'all. It's fantastic Friday! 68 with an expected high of 91 and 20% chance of precipitation.
Need to put the rest of the folded laundry away, clean yesterday's cat bowls, feed the cats, and then maybe putter around with a little light house cleaning.
Hopefully a nap too. Totally clueless what dinner tonight might be. I finished off the cottage pie for dinner last night.

Our High for Friday was slightly above Your High, No Rain natch.
Today is forecast to be warmer and Sunday even warmer.
I am not looking forward to the overnight lows for the next few days with the forecast showing them in the 75 and up range.
Laundry did not happen, Possibly today after I shower to wash off the sweat from today's walk. Currently I am cooling down from the walk. I did turn on the AC in the living room before heading out.
My Brother got it wrong, he thought we were supposed to have lunch with friends, Wrong, Next Friday the 6th or maybe Saturday the 7th. Despite it being the last day of June I changed the calendar to the July Page.

Hi ValerieGardenKatGardens wrote: »Hi!
was going to make a quick trip to Kroger today...sadly that is not the way it happened. I got my produce, forgot to stop by the water isle...picked up some frozen foods, had to go back to produce, finally got in line. 2 checkers...one in the 15 or less lane, the other in regular lane, and a LINE to get into scan your own...I'd never seen self scan line before...well, after standing awhile, we were directed to another line that 'I think will work'...only to have to wait while they un-bagged and rescanned another guy...Finally got my stuff scanned, and thankfully it rang up, and I was able to get out of there. I totally understand about electronics going south...I don't understand why they scanned the entire cart of that rescan guy without knowing if it was 'working'...I'd have scanned a couple items and checked him out. Then if all was working scanned the rest of his groceries. Essentially I stood there while they scanned that guy out 3 times. That pretty much shot my chance of getting to the gym early!!! My frozens were a little 'soft' but they'll be ok.
So, now I've had lunch, and I really want a nap, but going to the gym, and we'll see what the afternoon holds. I need to be in that front room. I'm like maybe an hour away from having a 'clean' desk in there.
Ok. If I think of anything else I'll post again later...and I'll watch the video's over dinner. Pretty much assures there will be a second post!!!
Later...
I wonder if that is tied to the sign at the Dunkin Donuts this morning that there was a large Internet outage that affected "on the go" ordering, Coupons and Card usage.
I did get to CostCo yesterday and picked up a ten pack of Kleenex, a bag of if Frozen Organic Brussels sprouts, and the usual other two vegetables which is the Normandy Mix and Organic Green Beans from the freezer. The Sprouts were a bit pricey with 4 one pound bags in the larger bag for $8.99. I did not see the price before hand or I might have passed on them
I did manage to pass the food court despite the Chicken Bakes which I do like calling me to buy them.
Have a Good Day

Howdy y'all. It's satisfying Saturday! 73 with an expected high of 88 and 20% chance of precipitation.
J came back late last night. We have a pool party today, but need to get there extra early. The baked beans are in the oven now, as they got in even before I had my breakfast.
Need to get yesterday's cat bowls cleaned up, feed the cats, and get showered up to get ready. There will be no nap today unless it's a very brief one after the party.

Howdy y'all. It's sensational Sunday! 72 with an expected high of 85 and 80% chance of precipitation. Good thing the pool party was yesterday! Everyone seemed to have a good time and there was plenty of food.
Not much on the agenda today hopefully. It was a long day yesterday.
Need to feed me, feed the cats, and get yesterday's cat bowls cleaned up.Don't know if I want leftover pizza for breakfast or not. Didn't get any very exciting pizza. Two large one topping pizzas for $7.77 each. I ordered extra cheese for one and just bell peppers for the other. But I didn't want much as I was tired and really just wanted to go to bed.
Guess I'll wander into the kitchen and see what I feel like for breakfast.

Editorial: New law no bargain
Rocky seas are ahead for businesses in Massachusetts.
Yesterday, Gov. Charlie Baker signed the “grand bargain” bill into law. It increases the minimum wage to $15 an hour by 2023, requires paid leave for workers starting in 2021 and establishes an annual sales tax holiday each August.
Last year, the state Legislature voted themselves a handsome pay raise. This week the mayor of Boston as well as the City Council did the same. Taxpayers are made to hand over their hard-earned dollars to improve the standard of living for their elected representatives again and again.
When do they get some relief? One weekend in the summer?

5 WWII airmen who died during mission in Germany buried together at Arlington
In the raid, 38 bombers were lost and 481 were damaged, according to an April 2007 Air Force Magazine article. The USAAF estimated that as many as 500 Luftwaffe fighters attacked and almost 400 men did not return. Many were missing in action after bailing out of their aircraft.
The Nov. 2nd mission was the deadliest, the article explained, but not the last of the missions to Leuna. Crews risked a half-dozen more missions over an array of at least 1,700 flak guns.

Sounds like a lovely day. I might get out to a store today.
Lilo just left my lap so I'm free, free!
Not that I have any big plans now that I'm free.
Need to clean yesterday's cat bowls and feed the cats. I've eaten and the dishwasher is running now. Possibly laundry later.
