We're having a picnic today with my new in laws. Should be beautiful weather. Tomorrow is a relaxing day before a busy week. Gotta get rooms set up and Wednesday is in service meetings.

So, Mary, what are you going to be doing this fall?


Morning Carol!

A picnic sounds fun!

I am working in a Headstart classroom again this year. I love the 3/4 year olds. They are so full of wonder and excitment everyday. It is so stimulating to live life through their eyes.

Still no openings for a class of my own. Hopefully things will start to get better and they will start hiring again.

I am going to the State Fair today with my daughter and grandkids. We were going last night but it rained. Going to be hot and humid today, hope I don't wilt..LOL

Have a fun day! :heart:



Ah yes the state fair. That was so much fun last year. I wish Iowa was closer to PA. I would love to go again. I'll be going to the local fair in 2 weeks. Not nearly as much fun as we had though.

We finally got some much needed rain. But now it's more hot and humid than before. Oh well. At least I won't have to water my garden tonight.

Anyone still here?

I am having hot beef sandwiches tonight.

My son in law gave me some smoked beef and pork from the fair (he is working at a food stand) so I am making mashed potatoes, some brown gravy, zapping the meat in the micro and calling it a great fast wonderful supper.

Hey Tim, for the cook off contest they had individual and team contests. A group from Linn County called, The Rookies, won their division. Not sure if they cooked pork, beef or poltry tho, didn't catch that.

Sorry, because I don't have any dripping from the meat so it has to be packaged gravy, but it still is good and I make a batch of mean mashed taters!!!
