My chickens were pretty happy yesterday. They got a few last tomatoes from some plants yet to get pulled. They were following me around while I pulled cucumber plants and squash plants. There are still more plants to pull yet, but today I'll be inside.
In fact, according to the weather, we are to get rain for four days straight, and some heavy at times.
(in progress)
I've got a few projects going on. One that is necessary. I hope to have time to finish this one by next week.
I'll most likely be busy in my kitchen today, along with other housework. I joked to Hubby this morning, saying it was time to "make the donuts." Remember that commercial? I kind of felt like that today. Both of actually. Hubby especially. He was dragging his feet for sure. He worked 2nd shift, and was back up to work 1st today. He forgot his lunch too.
Oh, by the way, the corn relish is delicious on baked cod. We had it recently. I simply baked the cod with olive oil, lemon juice, thyme, garlic, and salt and pepper. Then we topped it with some homemade corn relish. Very good. Youngest mixed some in with her mashed potatoes/garlic and chives too.
With everyone changing their home decor to fall, I finally took down the front door wreath, and swapped it for my apple wreath. I've had it for several years, and it still looks good.
The Hawk and the Hamster
I laughed as I excitedly ran to the living room, and asked who wanted to see my cupcake, and watched my 15 year-old turn so quickly (before the other kids). She is the "hawk" in the family.
If there is any food laying around, she'll be sure to spy it and zoom in. Especially chips. Hence the "hawk."
Hubby is the "hamster." If he hears anyone opening a package, the crinkling of a bag of chips, or whatnot, he'll be the first to say "whatcha got?"
Here is the Cupcake - an ornament, and obviously not real, ha ha! I did not have the darker brown yarn, but it turned out pretty cute. The free pattern is online with Red Heart yarn. These are larger than I thought, but cute.
