Here we are, well into the beginning of fall. Days are shorter, temps are lower, fall crops are harvested in some areas and being planted in others. It's an exciting time of the year for most of us. We are looking forward to 2 of our favorite holidays and some are already making plans for both of them.
There were so many homecoming dinners all around the area that we only had 41 customers tonight. The special was pork steak baked with apple juice. It was so moist and good. I brought enough home for a couple day's lunches. I also got some left over salad makings as well as what I had already gotten for my supper. I vaccumed sealed both batches and have them in the 'fridge. If it keeps as well as I have heard it does I'll have enough in the large batch to last most of the week. Each time I take some out I'll reseal the bag.
I'm headed for town early tomorrow to get milo and corn for the birds, my sewing machine out of the shop, some summer sandals that I've had lifts added to the heels, pay bills I can on a Saturday, & get my monthly haircut. Then I'll help out at the cafe' again since both daughters and the youngest one's DD are all going to St. Louis for a walk for Lupus which the youngest DD has had for 6 or 7 years.
Tina, I can only imagine what more than a very small patch of that cactus must be like. I think the fruit Susan was thinking of is the wild plum or maybe the sand plum. The wild plum we have here looks a lot like that. I don't know if I think jelly is worth all that effort. On the other hand I haven't tasted it yet so I may change my mind. LOL
Sue, those look like some nice sweet potatoes. I like them baked and in their skins too. Loaded with Parkey ff spray 'butter'. The holiday casserole is good but almost too sweet for me anymore.
Vic, I remember feeling guilty about feeling somewhat more relaxed and at ease when I would come home from the hospital to take care of things the last few weeks Jack was with us. Normalcy was a precious commodity at that time and I needed it so much. Little things like a good nights sleep in my own bed kept me out of the hospital myself. At the same time I felt guilty for not staying with him more.
I need to get to bed. GOD bless and keep each of you.
