What's Cookin'?

My lunch yesterday, and this morning it's Hubby's breakfast.  It was one of those throw-it-together scrambles.  I had just enough chard in the garden to make it, and used another jalapeno to flavor it up.  My sweet potato stash is dwindling quicker than I want it to.


I baked bread, but I didn't get my rose bed weeded yet.  The cart is still sitting there.  I often wonder if anyone even notices it's a mess but me.  I have other priorities anyway.  Like the messy porch, furniture that needs placed in storage, and so forth.


I love surprise mail.  Two weeks ago, one of my sisters sent this to me.  It made my day.  She said the two dangling pieces are "magic wands."  I've been wearing my "magic wands" lately, making things disappear, pop into jars and freezer bags.    I'm wearing them again today, in hopes for more help.  My job as "mother" is being tested this week.

School was delayed today.  Fog.  Foggy days make me lazy, and I waste the morning. It's been too cold to get out there early lately anyway.  I have a cat that is walking back in forth between my keyboard and the computer screen, wanting to be fed right now, ha ha!  Now he's patting my fingers as I type.  Ha ha!  I guess someone wants his breakfast right now.

You have thoughtful sisters, too! What a nice gift. When my cat is impatient for his breakfast, he head-butts me. That scramble looks so delicious! Chard is on the top of my list for planting next year.

Susan, after I posted this, he started rubbing his head on my hands. Tiger is very loving most of the time. The scramble was very good, thanks.

I've never heard of the magic wand necklace. How sweet - I love it! Remember the magic words from Cinderella - "Salagadoola mechicka boola bibbidi-bobbidi-boo." ("Put 'em together and what have you got bippidi-boobbidi-boo.") Don't know if they help or not, but the song can't help but to bring a smile to one's face.
Our cats rarely wander through my computer desk when I'm working. I'm pretty sure they use it for part of their race track when I'm not home though cause I often find my papers scattered. If only they could file.
Prayers for all those fighting forest fires throughout the US, especially in the NC, SC, GA mountains where the drought is so severe. Prayers for all the wildlife living there too.
God bless.

RB, I had to laugh at the necklace, when she told me they were "magic wands." You know how I run around and make things happen and all, ha ha! Some days I need them more.

Apples and Tomatoes Oh My!

  The early morning weather here has been downright chilly.  One morning it was 42 degrees.  Flower beds have been weeded.  The herb garden is next in line, but I do need to figure out what to do with all the rosemary plants I planted in the actual vegetable garden.  I have not mastered keeping them alive all winter indoors.  They will not survive the winter if left outside. Did any of my blog writing followers locate a better "blog" platform online?  Just curious if anyone is moving from blogger.

Under the Weather ~ What's Growing?

  I have not been around in blogland much, due to being under the weather after I pushed myself way to far one day.  I have to remember we cannot do it all in one day.  Thank goodness for teas and tinctures, and healing foods (and rest).  We are feeling better. As for our blogs being used for advertising on many websites, and so forth (I can't see any other reason for the source of views: howstuffworks, dominospizza, mayoclinic {not the blog readers interested in my actual blog}) the numbers continue to climb.  I have not found a way to "opt" out either.  If any of you find a new way to avoid this, blog elsewhere, find a new platform etc, please be sure to share.   If your blog has ads, you are are not going to complain, ha ha!  You are probably making a bucko-bucks with all these visitors to your blog. Okay, back to the update post . . .

16 Weeks Until Christmas

  It's not hard to believe that we are traveling closer to the winter holidays.  I'm trying to focus on enjoying every single day until then, but I am fitting in a few snippets of holiday preparing.  Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year.  It's hard to believe it's the last day of August. I have not yet gotten rid of the links to all the advertisers using my blog posts, but again, still working on it. However, my profile has gone from my blog, and while I am in settings, it is not able to add as a "gadget" to the blog.  Weird things are happening.   Google had a data breach recently as well, so gmail users were advised to change passwords.  Not sure what else is going on, but just in case you are wondering why my "profile" is not on my blog any longer.   Okay, back to the Christmas countdown post . . .
