Catch up time again…

Let’s start with Friday.  My daughter and I hit the garage sales.  Sales are winding down, no bargains.  I did find  a couple of books.  Friday night I went to Texas Roadhouse with my daughter and SIL.  I love that place, peanuts in a bucket on your table and hot homemade rolls with honey cinnamon butter.  Marcia and I had the chicken fritters, baked potato and salad.  My baked potato was loaded up about 2 inches on top of the potato.  Mike had a 12 ounce steak which he said was really tender.  Our waiter’s name was Brian.  He was excellent and he was tipped accordingly.  We each brought fritters home.  They run a close race with the chicken tenders from Cheddars.  No Cheddars around here, sad to say.

Saturday I went to a church sale.  It was a really good one, lots of crafts and many other items.  I purchased a couple of Christmas gifts and some other items.  It was fun!

Sunday, I cooked a pan of fresh tomatoes for the freezer.  I will use them for soup or sauce later on.  And even though I had chicken two days in a row, I had some chicken unthawed so I fixed chicken and noodles (frozen egg kind).  And that pretty much sums up my weekend.  Nothing much to write home about.

I am so thankful that Hurricane Irene was not as bad as predicted.  However there were lives lost and much property damage and I am so sorry for that.

Well, it is back to another week that includes such mundane things as laundry and cleaning,  I have errands to run too so I guess I had better get myself moving.  I hope you all have a good week.  Stay safe and be happy!!
