2. I responded with regrets for a 50th anniversary celebration for my bestie since grade school. I would dearly love to go, but a ten hour round trip with a hotel stay doesn't seem doable for me when I know I will need to be at my best the next week and weekend for oldest grandon's wedding. (The steroid shot in my right knee is wearing off, and I worry that keeping it bent for entire drive, and perhaps walking standing more than usual would be pushing it when I need it working for wedding.) It feels like I'm wimping out, but I just am more limited than I used to be, and I have to take care of what I can.
3. I made a gallon-jar-full batch of homemade brownie mix for the pantry. And while I was at it, I noticed that my gallon jar of homemade pancake mix was empty too, so I made a batch of that as well.
4. It is that beautiful weather time of year that I love. And have to admit that the old electric bill being lower is one thing that makes me love it! However, I think we are supposed to have a freeze this weekend.
5. The fall garden has not been a huge success. We have gotten a couple of meals worth of green beans, and that may be the beans end of season. We should have a good harvest of spaghetti squash. Neither the Brussels sprouts nor the beets even come up. And the carrots...well I'll let you be the judge:
What we ate this past week:
Saturday: Family supper at Kasey & Beau's
Sunday: Beef Stroganoff, Garlic Fried Green Beans
Monday: Homemade Biscuits w/ Sausage Gravy, fruit
Tuesday: Beef Stew w/ Cornbread
Wednesday: takeout burgers
Thursday: Jalapeno Sweet Potato Soup
Friday: leftovers
I love that you have a gallon of brownie mix at all times!
